Because he can't handle the clutch.   

That's right.  I watched the second half of the Giants-Cowboys game, and the Cowboys totally outplayed the Giants, only to miss so many opportunities, including a crucial pick thrown by Tony Romo on fourth down.  Then he throws what appears to be the winning touchdown to Dez Bryant, only to have Bryant come down with his hand out of bounds!!!

And again, Tony Romo was the punchline in my joke.  Gets harassed all night by a ferocious Redskins blitz, then when he finally finds his rhythm and is driving for the go ahead score, BANG!!!!  Throws a crucial interception with three minutes left that led to the game sealing touchdown.

That last INT was brutal. You can't float a ball out there like that with the game on the line

Which is why the Cowboys will never be in serious consideration for the Super Bowl with Tony Romo at quarterback.

Had just hit Witten with a nice 20plus gain up the middle.  Why not keep going to him ala Tom Brady.  Ever watch this guy continue to go to Welker, Herenandez and/or Gronk repeatedly.

When something is working like it was with Witten, why change?  You had a 40 year LB in Fletcher trying to cover him....the pass was horrible, but Jason Garretts playcalling was even worse!

I don't get why that interception was overturned.  Even if the ball touches the ground, isn't still supposed to be a catch, given the Bert Emanuel rule?

No. The ball on that INT went right through his hands and he never had control. Emanuel had a catch and the ball hitting the ground didn't change that

Romo is just the worst QB in the history of the 4th Quarter.

BUMP

Once again Tony Romo manages to blow it.  Up 26-3 at the half, he throws picks on the Cowboys final two drives as they choke against Green Bay 37-36

Well for the third consecutive season, he could be facing a division rival on the last week of the season with the division title or a playoff spot on the line.

Dallas still wins the division if they win their last two games.

The HC and the OC deserve a lot of credit for this loss also with their absolute refusal to run the ball in the second half.

Ya know I have been a Romo naysayer for a while, but he has actually improved this year.  Todays loss, and others, are on the defense; they really do suck!

Actually, Romo has the highest 4th quarter passer rating in the history of the NFL.

When your defense allows a TD on every drive in the second half (except the kneeldown), you are going to lose the game.  Period.

That's what the radio pundits were saying. Demarco Murray is an absolute beast.  Why wasn't he used more?

Because in today's "passing" league, you can't have a running back taking the glory. Unless you have AP.
