What if Romo checks it down for 2 yards on 4th and 1? Then they continue the drive and eat up clock. It ultimately results in a game winning TD. Why throw a 50 yard bomb hoping for a miraculous catch on 4th and game? What if Romo doesn't fumble the snap at the end of the half and makes a couple of completions for a TD or at least a field goal? What if Romo doesn't take a couple sacks in a row toward the end of the game, and the Cowboys aren't forced to punt?
It's easy to look at stats and say Romo exercised all his demons, but I'm not so sure that is the case.
Fine, he didn't play the football equivalent of a perfect game, but played damn well. And has been playing damn well for pretty much the entire season, despite getting banged up. I think you are grasping at straws.
And I agree I hated the decision to throw a fade on 4th and 2 with Murray on the sideline, but that's on the coaches, it looked like a predesigned play the way it unfolded and not up to the QB's discretion.
