(I always thought the approach Coach Gibbs took was awesome -- "Aww shucks, I don't know how we're going to get a win against team X." And then team X would lose by 28 points.) And I do think it is different for Dungy to say it (he ain't playing anyone) or even Garcon to say it (which was his way of counseling patience, no doubt) than it is for the guy who is charged with stopping RGIII to say it.
And I hope he lives to regret those words.
Having said all that, I confess the fact that Romo put up 500 yards this weekend is really, really troubling. We had better generate a pass rush consistently.

HTTR24_7 put up some interesting tweets showing that Romo's Denver game wasn't reflective of his season as a whole. It was interesting. He also put the point out there that you need to be pressuring Romo, which Haslett and the Skins seem to know how to do. I am sure Romo and Dallas will get their points (who doesn't against our D) but it's not going to be explosive like against the Broncos. Our offense just has to come and play the game for 4 quarters, or if only two, let it be quarters 1 & 2 so that Dallas is playing from behind.
