ROMO EXPOSED - Possible Headline on Monday in Dallas

"We can hear the Cowboys fans out there saying, "But the Eagles won two playoffs games without Owens before getting to the Super Bowl." True, but the 'Boys will still be missing a very key element of their offense if Owens isn't there, and we're not sure that Romo is ready to get the job done without him.

The Cowboys are 0-2 in the games that Owens hasn't started since Romo took over for Drew Bledsoe. While Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb was accustomed to winning games with crappy receivers, Romo's success has been fueled by the luxury of having one of the rare guys in the sport who constantly attract double coverage, opening up the field for the rest of the offense.

Without Owens, for example, tight end Jason Witten won't have his way with the heart of the field. And other receivers like Patrick Crayton and Terry Glenn won't be in constant single coverage. Also, there might be a safety cheating up to shut down the running game."

Maybe im wrong, and if i am i take full responsibility for it, but these are good points that I never really considered. Can you believe that Phuck? Besides, I did pick D to win... not so sure now.

They need T.O. He is the guy that opens up the passing game for the rest of the offense. No TO = an extra safety over the top = Romo back in Mexico with Jessica for the rest of the playoffs.

I agree, for the most part, but I think, even as an Eagles fan, that the Dallas D will pick up some slack in this one. I think Eli will have a sub-par game that'll keep it close deep into the 4th. I think it'll be a low-scoring game. 17-14, 21-10, something like that. Hard to call at this point really.

If he plays, will he be 100%- NO.

If he plays, will Romo's timing be perfect with him on a hobbled foot? - likely NO.

If he plays, will he command double-coverage? - NO.

Eat that cheese.

It's off of the internet, so it must be the gospel. Yeah, right!!! I remember T.O. playing in the Super Bowl with an injury worse than this and still kicking defense back's asses. Have fun watching.

I've got a crisp 100 bill for any fucker who doesn't believe that T.O. won't play Sunday. If he does, you owe me $100. Want it? Another feeble attempt to post the same picture over and over again. All they have to go on, I guess. Must be boring not to have anything else to talk about. That's life in the shithole they call Philly.

a huge cheapshot by another meaningless Eagles article, in this last day article barrage of bitter PHIL fans. It's playoff season now. Eagles fans should be on the golf section on YB. Man, even the Giants would paste you right now. but that's not reality, is it now, the playoffs

Yeah........they should be watching The Apprentice or something. Golf section. That's a good one, too. Or maybe the 76'ers. How are they doing? As I always say, if you live in a sewer city like Philly, that's all you have to look forward to every day. Let them rant. It make them feel important in a time when their football team is sliding in the the bottom of the NFC Eeast. Oh well. Life's a beach.

T.O. is a jackass, but there is no denying that he is a machine when it comes to playing through injuries..He is a tough dude. As a giants fan, I am hoping that T.O. is not at 100 percent and it has the impact similar to what happened when Plax was between 20-50% rather than then cool 65% is he is at right now.

I don't think he's going to be 100%, but even at 80, he's in the game and he is going to help spread that defense. Also got the speed demon Glenn back. That should keep the dbacks honest. You won't see a whole lot of 8 man fronts on the Giants part.

alot of nickel and dime packages as DAL spreads four and five sets to establish tempo early, with a healthy dose of Barber in the slot and up the gut

Nickels and dimes are all they have left in Philly, isn't it. If Barber is able to do damage against the Giants, it's not going to be pretty for them.

4 and 5 WR sets rock if you have personnel to execute varied routes...mixed with one-third rushing...those niners teams had that top ten team rushing, but featured crazy Walsh/Montana O WE sets that Seifert adopted...therein is the dilemna; if even 7 in box or 6, with five WR route threats, and if QB accurate, toast...Glenn is huge key and Barber has to do his thing...TO can hobble to eight catches...Crayton and Whitten complete the very good options 4-5 option...NY has average secondary

Man with T.O. playing and then you got Terry Glen and Clayton. Giants better watch out. Oh yeah what about Witten and the running game. Dallas will win. You can take that to the BANK

Yeah.........Barber has burned them the last two games. I don't expect anything different this time around and we have Gurode back. Anthony Henry and Newman are as healthy as they have been all season. I think you may see Dallas at full strength for the first time this season. Truly full strength except for the probable T.O. Should be fun to watch.

It's going to be a good game. I think we are going to see less and less of that picture of Romo in Seattle as the playoffs wear on. That's the only thing Philly fans have to use as bait. They are reaching at straws now to try and make their own selves feel good about their shitty year that they had. Let's Rock!!!

I love this... exactly why i posted this....

And its not made up you fool, profootballtalk.com is well-known and respected. It's on the rumor mill page, you have to scroll down and actually READ.

Made up...

I'll make something up, how about a glass of paint chips and vodka for you. MMMM... tasty.

All joking aside, I see now that he'll play, this was posted before the reports of his practice yesterday. Even still, the man will not be 100%, and a "limited workout" is far from the intensity of an NFL playoff game, you SHOULD all know that. One weird twist or tackle, and he's on the sidelines, simple and plain.

When he came back for the Super Bowl wit the Birds, he had over a month to heal, actually almost 6 weeks, so it was a different case for sure.

The man is def a fast healer, that is well-documented, but the Giants dont have to worry about him AS much as they did the first 2 games. They can focus more on taking Witten out of the game and stopping Marion.

He had a broken leg last time. Little different than a high ankle sprain. Plus, he wants to win this game more than anyone since he got close in Philly and didn't get it. T.O. will give it his all, I do know that and that is really all that matters at this point. Gonna have to worry about Terry Glenn, too. Like I said, this is the healthiest Dallas team in almost 7 games. They will be ready.

And Phuck, that picture is also laughed at by Seattle fans, Redskins fans, Giants fans, and shit, probably more.

Moreover, none of this has ANYTHING to do with the Eagles, except the ankle connection to a #81.

Thats it, really.

No, but it will erase the choke moniker, which is usually what that pic is associated with. Geeze...you guys have a freaking QB up there who has choked a hell of a lot more than Romo has and on the biggest stage there is. Philly will have plenty of room to get rid of their "choke" title when they actually win a title. Until then, not much room to brag and then rag on a QB barely into his second year.

And whats funny about that TB game is that they rallied from 17-0 to take a 21-20 lead, and some miracle kick ended up doing us in from 64 yards.

McNabb was a machine in the 4th of this game, as was Westbrook. It was a classic for sure.

Still lost just like Romo did in Seattle. Moral victories don't count, do they?

Not "just" like Romo did in Seattle, haha. The butter on McNabb's fingers wasnt as melted as Romo's, and McNabb was in hot Tampa Bay!

Yeah that was some vintage January-Romo right there. He took the snap, he read the field, and BOOM- pick. Classic, and he didnt cry this year, TO did! Who coulda scripted that. Let the off-season wildness begin, and it starts with losing half the coaching staff to the Tuna.

Still had a better year than you guys. End of story. I ain't going to come on here and make excuses. If the only thing you have to hang your hat on is the NY Giants, they so be it. I'll take 13-3 over 8-8 any day. Have your fun. At least I have the balls to come back on here and talk about. I bet if it would have been your team losing that game yesterday, we wouldn't have seen you on here, would we? I doubt it.
