FINISH

you know it’s ironic, after their mantra being “FINISH”, when it came to December, they failed to finish the PIT game and the BAL games that would have avoided this situation, and failed to finish the season.

Are they finished now? Or got some fight left?

I'm still on the Romo bandwagon.

But Owens, Williams, and Crayton? Not so much. No doubt that was a sidelines complaint-fest, and at least according to Troy, we can thank RWII for that interception. What I really don’t understand is why a coach isn’t sitting with Romo looking at film and coaching him. Coaching staff is worthless.

funny how exaggerations don't work on the internet.

he’s cute when he makes plays but he isn’t a leader, and with a coach like wade philips an offensive leader is necessary. manning takes charge of his offense. brady would take charge of his offense. at this point, matt ryan is a more mature quarterback than tony romo. maybe not as talented, but wasted talent is our team’s motto

by Cavazos on Dec 28, 2008 5:14 PM CST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

You're right. They don't. Neither does comparing a QB with a lot less experience

to Manning and Brady. But it looked to me like Romo DID take control of the offense and make something happen. Oh, wait, it’s his fault MBIII fumbled, too. I forgot he runs, blocks, and plays D, too. That’s sarcasm, BTW.
