Hey laser, this is a DC blog. If you want to talk about other teams, go elsewhere. As for Ware, give him his due. All great pass rushers are called for offsides at one point another. You guys act as if he is offsides continually. Get your facts straight!!!

It drives me crazy when people think Romo is not leader. I would love to know the sports background of average people that blog this stuff. I bet most haven’t played a single sport at any level and spout stuff they can’t come close to knowing. Maybe that’s why they just write stuff.

As a Cowboys fan I have to agree with you laserw, I’m beyond tired of seeing him jump offsides and giving away 5 yards like it’s candy. I wish I knew why everybody was always so hard on Romo. He has choked in the past and basically so has every other player in the NFL at some point in their career. But the Romo is great but he needs help on the other side of the ball as well. There’s a reason why there’s the saying, “Defense wins championships”

Does this mean that DeMarcus will stop jumping offsides on every play and consult with a referee to get a penalty when he isn’t called for offsides this year?

This man gets away with a lot during a game. When you are limited with talent, you have to break the rules to get ahead.

Romo’s December this past year was some of the best QB play in the league. It was up there with Eli. The difference is only one of those guys has a legit defense.

Yes, it’s about time more of this leadership talk falls on the shoulders of the defense rather than Romo having to bail out a young, patchwork o-line, inconsistent running game and a defense that can’t hold on to a lead.

Another story about the Cowpies’ lack of leadership? Can we have another Peyton or Tebow story instead to break the monotony?

The problem has been the Defense the last 4 years. Room shouk not have to score a TD In the final minutes of every game. The defensive 4th qtr has been bad for the last 4 years. Offense can score points and alot of them

I am not a Dallas fan but the Romo haters are a joke. If the Cowboys made him available today, 10+ teams would be on the phone trying to get him by tomorrow morning. Romo is still a top 15 QB and with him the Cowboys have no chance to complete in what will be the toughest division in football next season.

That’s sad, I know 2nd overall picks who havent started even one regular season game, who are more of a leader than Romo

——————————–

I live near DC and can’t remember any news reports about RG3 being a great leader yet.

And before you and the rest of skins nation annoint RG3 the “Greatest QB to Ever Play Football”, how ’bout you let him play at least one or two snaps in the NFL first?

Okay, here’s guys that you call leaders…

London Fletcher
Bryan Urlacher
Matthew Stafford
Jared Allen
Matt Schaub
Matt Ryan
Cam Newton
Patrick Willis
Phillip Rivers
Ray Lewis

And all the guys listed have ZERO Super Bowl wins in the past ten years. Leadership does not Super Bowl victory.

“Your quarterback has to be a leader, of course, ”

I disagree.

Look at Joe Flacco. The Ravens were a dropped pass in the endzone from the Super Bowl.

Can’t remember the last time someone called Flacco a “great leader”. All of Baltimore’s leaders are on defense. For them to be successful all Flacco has to do is “drive the bus”.

No leadership needed for that.

Maybe you should listen to tape of Romo on gameday before calling him not a leader.
