2011 NFL Thread: The Lazarus Season - Part 2

[BlackLantern]

and Tony Romo is out....again

 

[John McGuirk]

Tony Romo will never win a Superb Owl. Or even come CLOSE

He is a TERRIBLE QB in the clutch.

 

[BlackLantern]

I believe he was injured....that has nothing to do with being clutch

Now that the German Fella named Dirk Nowitzki has his championship, Tony Romo takes over as the most criticized athlete in Dallas.

 

[Hound55]

Dallas' chances just went up incrementally...

Kitna still there? With the WC preparation I can't say I saw much of the Cowboys pre-season.

 

[Hound55]

Now that the German Fella named Dirk Nowitzki has his championship, Tony Romo takes over as the most criticized athlete in Dallas.

He should have been the most criticized even before that...

 

[The Game]

The Patriots D is balding me slowly

 

[Dr. Evil]

He should have been the most criticized even before that...

The criticism was equal before Dirk got his championship. Mavericks fans (not all of them, but some) wanted to trade Dirk, even as early as the last offseason. His championship was his way of telling his haters to suck it.

Until he wins a Super Bowl, there will be Cowboys fans who want Tony Romo to be replaced.

 

[Hound55]

Well they're schmucks...

It's not like their coming up short was due to him, he just needed some appropriate help. The second they got a legit big who does the grunt work in Tyson Chandler things changed pretty swiftly...

The amazing thing is that they were still good enough to get over the top even with Butler out.

 

[Dr. Evil]

I hope that if Tony Romo ever wins the Super Bowl, the first words coming out of his mouth will be "now I know how Dirk Nowitzki feels."

That won't happen though, sadly and he will be heavily criticized.

There are similarites between Romo and Dirk, even in criticism, although for Dirk that has died down. As for Dirk, those fans that wanted to trade him ate crow on local sports talk radio in the days following game six.

For god sakes, the local media in Dallas gets enraged when Romo where's a baseball cap on backwards, and yet when a member of the Texas Rangers baseball team does it, nobody in the local media bats an eye, meaning that they are hypocrates.

 

[BlackLantern]

Philip f'n rivers!!!!

 

[John McGuirk]

I believe he was injured....that has nothing to do with being clutch

Duh.

But...
-Last week vs. Jets - craps his pants in the end, fumbles the ball away
-The Seattle playoff game - can he hold the ball? NO
-Going to Hawaii instead of preparing for the playoffs

The dude isn't totally committed. The Cowboys will miss the playoffs and they will move on from him.

 

[enterthemadness]

So...when does Miami start Moore at QB? Fins 0-2 now, and not a good game from Henne.

 

[Kane52630]

Cowboys winning makes me wanna say...

 

[The Game]

LMAO, this dude is catching the holy ghost on the side line

 

[JewishHobbit]

I've pretty much ruled the Bengals out for the season and expecting it to be more of a training experience, but I'm pretty impressed with Dalton so far. I'm more excited for next year.

 

[Boom]

He has to work on the long ball, but I'm liking Dalton. Quite a bit.

This loss fell on the shoulders of the first-half defense (specifically Peko), Jerome Simpson, and the continuing "dumbass streak" of our head coach.

And on a more devastating note, Jordan Shipley looks to have suffered a pretty serious injury. My Ship .

LMAO, this dude is catching the holy ghost on the side line

LOL...is that what it was.

In addition to winning NFL Executive of the Year in 2010, Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff also won the *****iest Haircut Among GMs Award.

 

[Matt]

Great play by the Atlanta defense, but DAMN....talk about speed from Jackson.

 

[Donut]

Nice Fumble there Vic

 

[BlackLantern]

no one can handle the ball tonight

 

[Matt]

Equally nice pick thrown by Ryan. But yeah, Vick wasn't holding the ball at all.

Apparently Philadelphia thinks that they still have Akers. That was an embarrassing try by them.

 

[Immortalfire]

That was a catch that only Tony G could make

In addition to winning NFL Executive of the Year in 2010, Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff also won the *****iest Haircut Among GMs Award.

Bah Matt you badly joker, you just wish you could make your hair look as good.

 

[Darthphere]

So...when does Miami start Moore at QB? Fins 0-2 now, and not a good game from Henne.

He's had one not so good game after having a pretty good game. Stick with Cam Newton throwing 400 yards and not winning.
