Tony Romo just got a $119.5 million contract extension in the offseason, but still can't stop getting the heat for his shaky big-game record as the Dallas Cowboys' quarterback. His coach, Jason Garrett told ESPN's SportsCenter on Monday that Romo doesn't deserve that level of criticism.
Romo is 55-38 in the regular season with a stellar career 95.6 passer rating. But he is 1-3 as a starter in the playoffs, and 0-3 in other games when a playoff berth was on the line.
"I think teams win 'win or go home’ games,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," I think teams win playoff games. I think teams win championships,” Garrett said.
Garrett accepted the fact that the Cowboys .500 record over the past two seasons isn't acceptable, but that Romo's play last season, despite a league-high 19 interceptions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], was the reason they were even in the NFC East hunt at 8-8 last season.
"The quarterback has a big role in having a really good football team, a championship football team,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Garrett said. Tony's done a great job helping us get into some of those games,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], helping us get an opportunity to win the division,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], to go to the playoffs, and sometimes it hasn’t worked out for our football team."
Romo has been one of the league's most efficient quarterbacks throughout his career,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but because of the Big D spotlight, his inopportune mistakes have gained larger focus then his standout prolific play overall.
The reality is, Romo isn't t the concern in Dallas. He needs much better help from his offensive line, running game and defense for the Cowboys to make the playoffs this season. They are trying to shake off a four-year drought in 2013.
