How stupid is that? A TD would have made it a two score game with under two minutes.

My guess is they felt confident they could score on 3rd down and wanted to run more time off the clock. Still dumb, though, given the TD puts them up by 10.

Well, he can still count them on one hand.




But not the other.

Yeah, the situation didn't warrant that.

I always liked Ross but I don't know if he can be effective now since he has been out of the regimine for a while. I wouldn't mind looking at him just to see how he is now. Nothing to lose.
I always liked Chandler better. Ross was just annoying.

Just heard on the radio that the only fathomable reason for Eli to throw that ball out of the endzone and stopping the clock was because Eli has Romo in his money league.

:lol

This seemed like a good idea at the time.

Not only did he go low, but it was late as well.

Romo mentioned getting "speared" in the back in one of the interviews he did.

Hopefully, they fine that piece of shit that hit him.

One possibility is Eli may have thought they were going for it on fourth down.
Even if that's true, if they don't make it on 4th down the clock still stops. They had to keep the clock running, or score the TD.

This coaching/QB blunder is an all timer.

I don't get why the NFL refuses to protect Romo the way they do other QBs.

The same guy who got him at the end of the game, hit him earlier during the return when Street coughed it up.
