The blood feud between the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants just never seems to end. If it isn't one player (Brandon Jacobs), it is another spouting his mouth off about the Cowboys. This time it was Ahmad Bradshaw who decided he was going to give his opinion of Tony Romo.
Bradshaw, coming off the Giants' big win the Super Bowl over the New England Patriots, decided that his new ring means he can proclaim what he believes to be wrong with his biggest rivals in the NFC East. In a funny bit of irony, Bradshaw proclaimed that Dallas is indeed "America's Team" but that they don't even believe in Romo to get them to the Super Bowl.
So, when you add the two Giants' running backs together, Jacobs said Eli Manning is a 100-percent better quarterback than Tony Romo and Bradshaw said that no one, from the fans to Romo's own teammates, believes in him. Add to the list names like Chris Cooley, who happens to play for another rival team, and Deion Sanders as men who have ripped Romo this year.
What did Romo do in 2011 to help or hurt his case? He played with a punctured lung and injured hand. He threw for 4,184 yards. He threw 31 touchdowns and only ten interceptions. He single-handedly moved the Cowboys into position to win late games and even did so on two occasions where the kicker missed, costing the Cowboys the win.
Tony Romo did everything in his power to win this year for the Dallas Cowboys.
What did Bradshaw do this year? Well, in the Super Bowl, all he had to do was fall down at the one-yard line to allow time to tick down so the Giants could kick the game-winning field goal. Instead, he stopped and clumsily fell into the end zone like a goof and gave Tom Brady a full minute to go down the field to try to win the game.
Brady has done that a number of times before in his career, and if it happened this year, Bradshaw would be the biggest joke in the NFL, the cause of the Giants losing. He got lucky and can now talk crap about Tony Romo. As a Cowboys' fan, I would have been overjoyed to see his clumsiness bite the Giants in the Super Bowl.
