Zona, your wrong. You are looking at the wrong parts of that video. Pay attention to where the TE is when Romo starts his throwing motion, he is breaking open and has Trevathon beat. Now go to post #49 by Gutless drunk where Trev is flying like Superman to make the INT, the ball is clearly behind the TE.
Mannings pass was risky. It worked because DT was tracking the ball and the defender wasnt, but he threw it to the defender and DT made the play. Decker doesnt make that play on the ball. Only point I am making by using that example is that QB's make those kind of throws all the time. Its the anticipation that seperates the good/great ones.
Not really sure why we are arguing this, I dont think Romo should be the goat for the throw, it was one of the few times our Defense stepped up. All the guys on the field are getting paid.

Heck Mannings completion to DT on the game tying drive was a far more dangerous throw. Having looked at the gif 4 million times I am now sure Romo saw him breaking open while going through his progressions and just couldnt step into the throw. Good job Wolfe and Robinson for collapsing the pocket causing Romo to step up into the rush.
But all of that is nit picky. Bottom line is, the coverage was pretty tight on the TE while the RB was completely wide open. You throw the least risky pass and to the guy who is the most wide open and you take the easy play, especially in those circumstances, late in the game, game is tied, deep in your own territory.

I think we're getting carried away here. It was a nice rush, I wouldn't call him a hero. Bad throw by Romo. He should have went to the easy wide open guy, which was the RB. Trev had good coverage and it was a risky pass.

Originally posted by R8R H8R View PostYes, I agree. That DT is Wolfe, I beleive. He gets by the C (?) and then gets picked up by another guy. However, if you look closely, the 2nd guy blocking Wolfe prevents Romo from really stepping into his throw, and probably blocked his vision a bit.
On second down, defensive end Derek Wolfe pressured Romo, and Trevathan noticed Wolfe's hands were up, and Romo was still trying to squeeze a pass to Gavin Escobar on a crossing route. Travathan dove, stretched out and grabbed the ball before it hit Escobar's hands.

In my defense, CJ Davis was a Bronco at one time.

Originally posted by misturanderson View PostAfter looking at it again, I would say that The DT coming up the middle and being double teamed had a significantly bigger effect on the pass than Robinson, but I see what he's saying about the LT's foot tripping up Romo slightly.
