I need everyones opinion on this, no disrespecting each others opinions either. So the question is did Tony Romo intentionally throw that SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL game vs the jets. To me it seemed almost obvious that he did. Throughout the whole game romo did not attack Darrelle Revis due to fear of being intercepted or that he would make a play on the ball. Now i am not saying that fumble was intentional (pretty much impossble), but i do think he threw that interception on purpose. Even the announcer's during the game were talking about how bored Revis was throughout the game and was not getting any action. So why throw his way in the most CRUCIAL part of the game, and the pass that Romo attempted made it even worse. I think even a high school quarterback could of seen Revis there as well as Romo's reciever who was not even close to being open. Another thing that kind of stuck out to me was that botched snap by Romo. The cowboys only needed 20 yards to get into field goal territory but once again another crucial part of the game Romo could not even catch the snap by the center. To add it all up it was 9/11 and the league was celabrating the 10 year anneversiy. The game being played in New York and across the river basically from ground zero it almost seemd like a "storybook ending" as the jets came back on there home turf (where 9/11 happned) and came back to win. This is just my opinion i eaasily could be wrong what do you guys think tho......BY the way the spread was 4 and the jets also won by 3 hahaha.

maybe coz of 10th anniversary of 9/11...but who knows. I felt the same way while watching the game. As if he wanted to lose the game.Comment -
No it doesn't make sense for a professional athlete to throw a game......too much on the line.Comment -
1st drive he hit dez bryant twice against darrelle revis didnt he? atleast once but i thought td was as well.Comment -
what do you mean too much on the line? are you implying athletes are not told to throw games at timesComment -

He attacked revis all night I think the fumble really got to himComment -
good luckComment -
Please give me all the examples you can think of where a pro athlete threw a game. GoComment -
Worst part of the whole game was the punt block TD. How the fuk did they allow that to happen. Not to mention Romos lack of tactical ability to figure out to not throw the ball and to run it, to run down the clock. Romo does not strike me as a bright person at all.Comment -
No Romo choked
He is a fukkin loser pretty boy
Interesting theory thoughComment -
The guy makes 60 mill + on his current contract extension, players like him in that caliber will get hurt by throwing a game esp romo with such a rep. That was a pure mental and f up mistake, if u could watch the game they guy was shaking and acting all tense up after he fumbled the ball, he was a diffferent romo. When a guy loses confidence and believes that he cant win the game, they make stupid mental mistakesComment -
your theory is flawed since romo threw at revis all night.
and romo has a history of choking in crucial moments so this wasn't anything out of the ordinary.Comment -
yeah man thats just what Tony Romo does... which is why I can't take the Cowboys -3 @SF.Comment -
I think the Romo choke job really helps Dallas backers this week. If the Cowboys would of won the spread would be -6.5.Comment -
even his TD passes were nearly interceptionsComment -
No. I don't understand why people cannot accept that the pick they made lost. Crazy stuff happens in sports. Not everything is a conspiracy. It must be an ego thing, people thinking "no way this can lose". Guess what? It always can.Comment -
well i know if I was QB or Coach for the Cowboys and we had that lead with 6 minutes left in the game we would have won the ball game....
The game was lost before he threw that pick... should have never even been tiedComment -
I think Romo is just over-rated and inconsistent. That fumble was inexcusable. The pick? I have no idea what he saw or thought he saw. That was just bad QB play.Comment -
Wasn't the spead +6.5-+7 cowboys were do u get -4. OH yeah the Jets don't have a powerhouse team to comeback from being down right, im a giants fan but i do know the truth they have a good enough team to comeback from being down 21 points in the fourth quarter. Also if u think its easy in high school just think how much harder it is to play in college and how much more harder it is to play in the pros, for instance look at all those star college players breaking all kinds of records there and go to pros to just be mediocre. Not to mention Romo is the biggest choke artist in all of sports i believe.Comment -
He just chokes under pressure all the time, espn showed a montage history of his late game choke jobs, but your theory kinda mirrors neil odonnell throwing the super bowl to dallas back in 96 to the cowboys when he threw 2 picks intentionally to larry brown, i believe he threw that game intentionally. However i dont think tony threw this game but i can see your point why you think he might and who knows he may have, anythings possibleComment -
Saying Tony Romo 'threw' that game is absolving him of the fact he is a slum quarterback.
He just sucks, there is no conspiracy. And this coming from a guy who lives in Texas. There is no master plan, he just isn't very good.Comment -
y r there always dumb threads like these everytime a player does something dumb on the field?
u think romo threw the game cuz he threw a bad int?
did manning throw the superbowl when he threw that pick6?
did the saints throw the game by letting the seahawks upset them last year?
did favre throw the game when he threw his int against the saints?
did lebron throw the entire finals by turning into casper in the 4th quarter?Comment -
Suddenly???
No he's been doing this for 5 years now....Comment -
Exactly... Romo is a bum. And every year, cowboy fans get amnesia about how much he really sucks. They hype him up, as if he is in the same class as Brady/Peyton/Brees/Rodgers [in no particular order]. but he isnt.
he is AVERAGE at BEST.
You should take your tv watching talents down to south Texas and look at Matt Schaubb. Now that is a quarterback worth watching and clamoring overComment -
If youre trying to lose a game and youre up 24-10 in the 4th quarter you really suck at it.
These threads are beyond ridiculous.Originally posted by Dark HorseComment -
matt schaub?
hes an even bigger choker than romo.
Comment -
that was cromartie, then the jets wised up and realized cromartie has no shot against Dez.
Dez ran the wrong route and it was a timing pattern on the INT.
Didn't you all see Dez apologizing and talking to.Romo after the play.
It looks inexcusable on replay, but for once I don't think its all on Romo.Comment -
How is schaubb a choker? You telling me, you would draft romo over schaubb? get out of here with that.Comment
