That's 2 years in a row that guy has cost Dallas a playoff game.
Good thing they signed this choker to a long term contract

Tony Romo is one of the best young QBs around - Why is no one crying that TO - one the most established WRs around lost the Cowboys their place in the playoffs. Lay off Romo - it's not his fault the rest of the team didn't preform.
It's not Romo's fault exclusively but some of the blame has to fall on him.

He's a panicker. He makes mistakes when the pressure is on. Montana he is not.

Although he was an idiot in the last 5 minutes, there were some key drops, and key penalties earlier that put them in that situation to begin with. As well as sucky special teams. As well as 3 missed tackles on the Giant's first TD. As well as defense that let them score in 45 seconds on a drive before half time. All Romo is guilty of is not being the savior at the end.
I don't see why nobody is putting the loss on Patrick Crayton. He dropped a key pass, nearly fumbled away a punt, and slowed up on a route into the end zone where the ball eventually went over him.
