This game may be the worst of all time

So how many wins will it take to change Romo's legacy, and is it less than 4?

I think 2 does it. Get to the NFCC and I don't think anyone can call him a choker anymore. But, people still will if he loses it.

If he manages a SB win, he's probably bound for the ring of honor. Actually, he might be regardless just because he's Jerrah's boy.

He's been maddening at times but he's still one of the top QBs in team history, at least stat wise and his best years were wasted by generally poor personnel decisions and coaching up until the last couple of years.

I love how Gruden describes Lindley as "inexperienced".

Uhh, he was a four year starter at San Diego State.

It is not like he had a year of college ball and then was asked to play.

Maybe he just sucks.

 

[dallen]

Today we are all losers

I don't know, some call White a choker and he had multiple playoff wins

 

[boozeman]

Seattle could just play their reserves like a final exhibition game and beat the Panthers with ease.

What an embarrassment.

 

[DLK150]

Maybe he just sucks.

Maybe? No. He does suck.

 

[boozeman]

The fact the Panthers win this with their horrific record will just reinforce the idea that letting more shitty teams in the playoffs is a good idea.

The Cards I feel a little for. They are playing with garbage thanks to injuries.

The Panthers are absolute shit.

 

[boozeman]

First ever playoff win for Cam Newton. Yeah, he had a lot to do with this win.

Maybe, but Romo has had much better stats than White did, so with a NFCC berth I don't think you can call him a choker anymore. But, like I said, he probably still will be.

I doubt that, they have played each other the last two seasons and both games went down to the wire and were decided by a single possession. To be fair, both games were in Carolina but if the Panthers can avoid turnovers the game will be close. They shouldn't win but if they can avoid turnovers and get a little lucky you never never know.

Those Panther teams were a hell of a lot better than this one.

 

[DLK150]

Well, the battle to determine who sucks less in the NFC is over. Huzzah.

 

[townsend]

I still think a losing record should rule you out for the playoffs. Like not finishing bowl eligible in NCAA.

We could only be so lucky.

They played this season in Carolina and the Seahawks won on a TD in the last minute I believe, 13-9 or 13-7 or something.

I don't like comparing stats across eras, they were different times then. If/when we lose one it's going to depend on how we lose, if it's an interception on the last drive it will just make it worse, even if it's in the NFCC
