Tony Romo needs to stop saying he’s confident and prove it

The Dallas Cowboys’ quarterback Tony Romo has been receiving a lot of criticism this year, and most of it is well deserved.  Romo had a huge game in week one against the very weak Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but had a terrible three interception game the next week against the New York Giants.  Romo insists he is still confident in himself, but ever since his pathetic game against the Giants Romo has looked timid and has been playing poorly.  Romo has four touchdowns and four interceptions, throwing for 990 yards on 76/131 (58%) attempts so far this year.

Romo continues to speak out about how he is confident in his abilities and all that, but its not his physical abilities that are in question, it is his decision-making and the psyche he has going into games.  The criticism has obviously gone to Romo’s head, and he can continue to say otherwise but its obvious.  Romo lacked rhythm and played timid against one of the worst teams in the NFL, the win-less Carolina Panthers.  He followed that up with another bad game against the Denver Broncos where he failed to throw a touchdown pass and threw a costly interception.  Romo needs to stop caring about the critics and just go out and play football the way he is capable of playing.
