Encouraging Game

This game showed us more things about this team than we could have imagined... And for the better.

Star-divide

One thing, how great is it that the Cowboys still won the game even with thier QB throwing 5ints, sure it would have been better if he didn't, but there is no way I could see the Colts surviving 5 picks from Manning this season.

The Bills played very well on defense and on a couple of the INTs they deserve the credit.

Tony Romo proved, once again, that no matter how the game is going, he turns up the heat in the fourth quarter. Folks kick never would have happened without Romo's drive. Only a handfull of QBs can hold comebacks like that without 5ints in thier mind, Brady, Favre, maybe Manning. Tony Romo, even with 6 turnovers, is becoming richer and richer every week. HE IS THE REAL DEAL. I would take a crappy QB for 3 quarters as long as he wins you the game in the 4th any day.

Folk has proven to be a consistent kicker, a long-distance kicker, and best of all, a clutch kicker.

The Cowboys will beat the Pats next week. Romo works hard in the film room and will not throw 5 picks next week. Like everyone says, they were looking ahead to NE. Well, then that means they have a head start on the Pats. The defense has picked it up every week and is looking dominant, they can hold the Pats to less points than the Browns did (34), Cincy(34), Buffalo(38), SD(38), and Jets(38).

This game was bad news

There was hardly anything good coming from Romo on this game. He had to lose confidence on this game and he reverted to ever worse than he was the last 5 games last year. If Buffalo was not so inept, this would have been the New Orleans game from last year. I am glad we got the win, but this was nothing but bad news for Romo. I hope this is a wakeup call for him and Garrett.

Parcells last night on ESPN read his 11 things a QB had to do to be a great QB. I think Romo broke almost all of them in one game.

I hear ya

but I believe Romo will learn from this and come out ready to play and do better this week.  That's what is I believe will be feeling better to me.  Everyone has been saying that Romo hasn't won with adversity, well I believe he did that last night.  He shouldn't have to do it against Buffalo, but it happened and Buffalo just came out to play!

Don't we get Wade Wilson back this week?

I think that'll help insure that Romo bounces back. I think a lot of folks forget he has barely started a full season's worth of regular season games: he's still learning to read defenses. We should all just calm down. This will be fine.
