Headlines read:"Cowboys Get Their Leader Back, Return to Playoff Race"
"Romo Has Cowboys Singing Confident Tune"
"Tony Romo Will Be in MVP Mix if Cowboys Make Playoffs"
"Tony Romo's a Hero"
Are you kidding me? A hero? I'm so tired of the media drinking from Jerry Jones's well of Tony Romo Kool Aid. In spite of the headlines, Romo was the among the league's worst quarterbacks last week.
Statistical evidence be damned! Somehow, "Romo's presence, [Peter King is convinced], helped the Dallas defense in Washington." That's right, Tony Romo improved the Cowboys' defense just by being present. "I'll be seeing Romo later tonight," King continued, "good thing I loaded up on Sproingo."
Actually, I'm happy about all the Romo boners in the media. For one thing, it gives 49ers fans another reason to hate the Cowboys. More importantly, it means the Cowboys are thinking playoffs. In other words, they're looking past the 9ers.
