Either Jerry Jones made a deal with Satan, is paying off a lot of people, or they are spiking the other team's water bottles.
Everyone just seems to lay over all of a sudden when playing the Cowboys. Of course the Texans just suck anyway.
But no worries, Romo will Romo as always and they'll end up 8-8 or 9-8 and at best, lose in the first round of the playoffs.
1. Tony Romo’s all-time record as a starting quarterback in the NFL is 62-45, a .579 winning percentage. He wins more than he loses. Tony Romo = winner. You understand basic math and percentages don't you?
2. Tony Romo has 19 career 4th quarter comeback wins in his career. That’s one more than Jon Kitna and tied with Jake Delhomme and Steve DeBerg. Yet all we hear is how Romo is a “choker,” whereas those guys’ names are pretty much never mentioned by anyone ever. Way to lap up the media-produced narratives!
3. Tony Romo has the fifth most fantasy points of any quarterback in the NFL this year. It may be called fantasy football, but it uses real statistics.
4. The Dallas defense hasn’t shut out an opponent since January 3, 2010. But, sure, sure: it’s all Romo’s fault when he’s the one who has had to produce at least a field goal every game for four years to even give his team a shot at a tie. Football is a team sport.
5. Tony Romo only has 2 career postseason interceptions. Guess how many the supposedly “clutch” Tom Brady has? Twenty-two. That’s right: Tom Brady has ELEVEN TIMES as many postseason interceptions as Tony Romo and Romo is supposedly the huge choker? Oooooookay.
6. Tony Romo has NEVER lost a Super Bowl. Can you say that, Brady? Nope. What about you, Peyton Manning? Nope. What about you, Roethlisberger? No again.
7. Since 2006, Tony Romo has 7 interceptions in the 4th quarter or overtime when his time is tied or leading by a single possession. The next closest quarterback only has 4 such interceptions. Looks bad for Romo, right? WRONG! Ever hear of the “exception that proves the rule?”
8. Tony Romo has a career record of 13-21 in December and January. But being 13-21 in December and January means Romo is 49-24 in September, October and November. That’s ELITE as ELITE gets.
