Taking a look at the Cowboys Wikipedia page, it appears Tony Romo has now played in 3 week 17 de facto playoff games (win and you're in the playoffs, lose and you go home), one against each NFC East rival, and he's lost them all. (He did beat the Eagles in a game for the division title in 2009, but the Eagles also made the playoffs, so credit for that.) He's also played in 4 playoff games and lost 3.
Not a good track record, but that final nut-punch interception against the Redskins was one of the worst throws I've ever seen. I think I could almost hear all of North Texas yelling "NO!" as he cocked his arm. I almost feel bad for the guy.
On a positive note, as a Giants fan I'm pretty excited Tony Romo isn't going anywhere, and neither is Jason Garret. Those guys should get a buddy cop show, where each week they try to figure out new and interesting ways to lose NFL games with stupid interceptions, terrible clock management, dropping the snap on field goals. William Shatner could play the police captain/Jerry Jones role. I'd watch that.
