I don't think anyone will think that. The excitement or rejuvenation is potentially having a decent passing offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He took his first regular season snap at quarterback in a home game against the Houston Texans on October 15. His first NFL pass was a 33-yard completion to wide receiver Sam Hurd. His only other pass of the game was a two-yard touchdown pass, his first in the NFL, to wide receiver Terrell Owens.[18] One week later on October 23, 2006, Romo replaced Bledsoe for the start of the second half of a game against the New York Giants. His first pass was tipped and intercepted. His game stats in only his second NFL appearance were 14 completions on 25 attempts for 227 yards, two touchdowns, and three interceptions (one of which was returned for a touchdown). On October 25, Cowboys head coach Bill Parcells announced that Romo would be the Cowboys starting quarterback for the October 29 game against the Carolina Panthers on NBC Sunday Night Football, in Week 8 of the 2006 season. Romo led the Cowboys to victory in his first game as a starter, 35–14. In that game, Romo was Sunday Night Football's "Rock Star of the Game." On November 19, 2006, Romo led the Cowboys past the Indianapolis Colts, the NFL's last unbeaten team. He completed 19 of 23 passes as the Cowboys won against the Colts 21–14. Four days later he helped the Cowboys win in a Thanksgiving Day gameagainst the Tampa Bay Buccaneers by the score of 38–10. Romo went 22-29 with 306 yards and five touchdown passes and no interceptions.[19] For his performance, he was awarded FOX's Galloping Gobbler award as the Thanksgiving Day MVP. Romo aided the Cowboys in clinching a playoff spot, their second since Parcells became coach in 2003. He concluded the 2006 regular season with 220 completions on 337 pass attempts for 2,903 yards, 19 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions, with a passer rating of 95.1. The Cowboys played the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Wild Card playoff round on January 6, 2007. With the Cowboys trailing 21–20 on fourth-and-one with 1:19 left in the game, the Cowboys attempted a 19-yard field goal. Romo, the holder for the kick, fumbled the snap. He recovered the ball and attempted to run it in, but was tackled short of the first down marker, and turned the ball over on the Seattle 2-yard line. The Cowboys went on to lose the game.[20] Romo finished the 2006 season ranked seventh in the NFC in passing yards (2,903) and touchdown passes (19). Romo played in the 2007 Pro Bowl after Drew Brees went down with an elbow injury as a substitution for Marc Bulger. He threw one touchdown and one interception, and was the NFC's kickoff holder in the game Romo playoffs record. 2-6 Nuff said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buddo Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 While undoubtedly the Bills have been inept on both D and O the last couple of games, the Offense has been non existent, whether it be pass or run. While the 'traditional' approach has been to run to set up the pass, you can do it either way, i.e. pass to set up the run or vice versa. On Offense, we have achieved neither, and it has become glaringly obvious, that teams are simply stacking the box, and daring us to beat them with the pass. Tyrod has had two games in which to figure out how to achieve that, and simply hasn't managed it, at all. Tbh, it isn't any sort of stretch, to say that he hasn't really managed to do that, through most of his time here. We've all seen it, and it's not some sort of 'overnight epiphany'. Something had to change, and realistically, certainly on Offense, about the only thing that makes any real sense to change, is the QB. Admittedly we still have O-Line 'issues', but we aren't overly blessed with a full range of talent or health there atm. I don't doubt either, that they are also trying to get the run D sorted. Re-signing a large lump of DT, being one part of that. I don't expect it will be enough on its own, but improvement in the basics, and actually getting some production from the Offense, might just make enough of a difference, to actually get us back playing in the same game, as the opposition.

And in the end after he is done you have won nothing. Absolutely nothing but did get too see 8 meaningless playoff games. Romo did have a couple very good regular seasons with a stacked team. But he doesn't even own a NFC championship ring that he won. At least Kelly got 4 AFC rings. I need too wait for 17-25 years for someone who can win and win a lot. . lol BBFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
