And you're right here, those stats don't do Romo justice. Let's see what Romo had to overcome tonight:
1) Shaky protection against a ferocious d-line
2) A back injury (and when you have to throw pinpoint passes, an injury that breaks chain of movement in your core IS a big deal)
3) Feuding among his receivers that they weren't getting the ball enough
4) Injuries to his top two running backs
5) Talk from certain folks that he is "A LOSER"
This team was on the verge of collapse. Now Romo wasn't the only one that came up big performance (the D was huge as was The People's Choice). But Romo was huge tonight if only for all the mental toughness he showed tonight.
