Inside Romo's 1-5 Win or Go Home Games
View attachment 162
Here are all 6 of the win or go home games. Tell me the ones that are Romo's fault?
1) Loss >> 2007 NY Giants 17-21
The score was 21-17 with 4:16 to go in the game when two plays turned the game.
The first play was 1st and 10 on the Giants 41. Romo was pressured and he rolled left and threw the ball in the stands. The refs called intentional grounding..later the next week the league admitted Romo was out of the pocket and should not have been penalized for throwing the ball away.
The next play 2-20 from their own 49. Romo hit Patrick Crayton on a slant and he was wide open with no one between him and the end zone. He dropped the ball. This was the second drop by Crayton. He dropped on earlier in the 4th quarter that he might have scored on as well..The exact same play..Here a link of that play. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_h7PddVtISM
Romo did throw a pick. On the last play of the game. 4-Goal from the 21. He threw in coverage and it was intercepted.
2) Loss >> 2008 Eagles 6-44..
Complete trashing. Romo, the defense, Oline, RB's were all trashed by Jim Johnson and his defense. The Eagle offense just did what they wanted. I said earlier in another post. The Eagles would have beaten any team in football that day.
3) Win >> 2009 Eagles 34-14
A really complete win following the end of season defeat of the Eagles to win the NFC East..Romo threw for 260 with 2 td's and no ints. The defense stood up and the RB's had nearly 200 rushing.
4) Loss >>2010 Vikings 3-34
The offense was destroyed by Minnesota's defense. They sacked Romo 6 times and it could have been 15. No running game and the Cowboys defense let Brett Favre go nuts..15-23 244 yards and 4 td's.
5) Loss >> 2011 Giants 14-31
Another nightmare. Defense allowed Eli to pass for 346 yards with 3 td's and no picks. Romo again had no chance. He was sacked 6 times and harassed the entire game.
6) Loss >> 2006 Seattle 20-21
This is out of sequence. Romo's first year as a starter he takes them to the playoffs. Romo the QB took the team down the field for a game winning FG. Romo the holder mishandled the snap and was tackled short of the first down. The Cowboys were actually robbed by a bad spot on the previous play. Witten clearly had a FD but the refs missed the spot.
Then there is this:
Since 2009, Romo has played against 19 upper-echelon quarterbacks, fromEli Manning to Matt Ryan to Robert Griffin III.
He has had a better passer rating than the opposing quarterback 13 times, yet the Cowboys have won only four of those games.
See, it's bigger than Romo.
