And 7th in INT %, so stats don't really mean crap.And notice his completion percentage. 5th in the NFL.

Say what? 7th in INT % is damn good. Only 6 guys throw interceptions at a lesser rate than Romo.And 7th in INT %, so stats don't really mean crap.
Nobody said he had to be perfect. Just agree that this hasn't been his best year. I've seen better years by him and I don't have to have stats to know that.Again, no QB is perfect. Peyton, Brady, Rodgers, Brees, their receivers have to adjust for balls as well. The numbers don't lie. I agree, he has been off the past few weeks.
Yeah, I was definitely looking at that stat wrong. I just glanced at it. The fact remains that his accuracy has been horrific this year at times. It helps his pass % that he is throwing mostly low risk passes this year. You don't see him going down field much, and even on the quick outs or slants he is off with his passes.Say what? 7th in INT % is damn good.

His first 5 games were better than ever. Last 4 are down a bit, but they still won 3 of 4. Lets see how he finishes up in the last 7. It's not his best year or worst, but I still say one of his better years through 9 games because of how he played the first 5.Nobody said he had to be perfect. Just agree that this hasn't been his best year. I've seen better years by him and I don't have to have stats to know that.
NopeBTW no one said it was his worst year, but one of his worst.
Like I've been saying his first 5 games were off the charts. He's made some bad passes the past few games though, just throws that we're used to see him making.Yeah, I was definitely looking at that stat wrong. I just glanced at it.

He was far better in 2011 IMO.Nope
Right you are and that is why I think he is having one of his best production years. He has accomplished a lot with what is provided him for protection. Rarely can he stay in the pocket and go through his reads without having to move within 3 seconds.Kinda hard to go downfield when your shit OL is still consistently being pushed back into your face.
I don't see much improvement in them really. Doug Free was much better early in the year, but has leveled off. Tyron still just can't reach elite level. LG has been hit or miss. Frederick has rookie moments as to be expected, but his future looks bright. Waters was solid, nothing incredible. Berny is bad.

Everyone here says Romo is gunshy or playing scared, well yeah, his OL still fucking sucks.
Let's not get crazy here. The line has been better, but that's not saying much. It has been such a shit show over the last few years, even an avg to below avg line would look eons better.Romo has had tons of time. For once in like 7 years you can't blame the line. I will go further in saying that blaming the line this year is tad amount to apologizing for Romo.
I don't know what to tell you. Some of us see it one way and others see it differently. I watch very carefully how often he is allowed to stay in the pocket and from my vantage point he makes his own time by moving around more so than he should have to. The OL runs hot and cold. Any team that pressures up the middle negates the OL. That is the way I see it anyway. As to being a Romo apologist, I have no need to apologize for any player. I don't have an agenda for anyone.Romo has had tons of time. For once in like 7 years you can't blame the line.

Feh.I don't know what to tell you. Some of us see it one way and others see it differently.

That seems to be the stock answer.Feh.
You are a homer.
How many times this year have you seen him scramble versus years past?Let's not get crazy here. The line has been better, but that's not saying much. It has been such a shit show over the last few years, even an avg to below avg line would look eons better.
It still is not good.
People look too f'n hard for reasons to label somebody a homer or an apologist, as if it somehow justifies their own idea of what a good/smart fan is. Stupid.
