At least in Week 1, Romo was the problem. He isn’t the only problem for the Cowboys, but if he doesn’t play exceptionally well they have no chance of succeeding.
He is paid like a franchise QB, so he should be held accountable. Romo acknowledged that and vowed to play better, Dez came to his defense like a good teammate. Here is what he had to say via ESPN.
The poor performance by Tony Romo is the primary reason the Dallas Cowboys are off to an 0-1 start.
Just don’t try telling that to Pro Bowl receiver Dez Bryant.
“I’m going to tell you something, man. That’s nowhere near the issue,” Bryant said. “I can’t believe you even asked me that question. Like I said, as a whole, we went out and we made some mistakes that we wish we could get back, but we can’t.”
