"Inside the NFL" has audio of RG3 telling Romo after game, "Don't listen to what anybody else is saying to you. You're a great quarterback."

I wonder how Romo feels after hearing that from a rookie.....

[TYfirstballot]

I found this rather annoying and even though RG3 probably didn't mean any disrespect by it, I could imagina and understand that Romo would be a little bit upset. But hey, they are division rivals so some subtle jabs are fine, but RG3 is a class-act and I am positive that this is not meant as an insult at all.

im sure he didnt mean it as an insult, but it is still insulting to a veteran imo

[oldunclemark]

It shows he was thinking about someone other than himself....

[QwizBoy]

I'm glad to see him supporting another NFC East quarterback who faces a lot of criticism. Shows that there should be mutual expect between these two QBs in the many intriguing match-ups to come.

[Jules]

Thats hilarious since I heard that is EXACTLY what Luck said to Schaub after the game Sunday too!

A guy showing support to another player. How dare he....

[John Dee]

Every one...  (media) keeps praising RG3 for his "maturity" ... 

 

"practice Is easier than the game"

 

"the Rams should be more professional" ...  

 

and now another jem after a hard loss he ....  (A ROOKIE, who was 8-18 for 100 yards and bunny rushing TD thanks to Morris's hard work)  Tells Tomy Romo not to worry...     hehee....

 

 

Oh Lordy...    I am sorry, this kid is FAR from a finished product mentally.    He thinks he is entitled to a seat at the big boy table when in reality he isn't even in the parking lot yet.      His EGO is so far inflated... 

 

I really hope Seattle puts it on Washington Sunday.    I am just so sick of the greatness that is RG3.

 

JMO>>>>>>    and if you don't feel it...  

[John Dee]

A "ROOKIE" has NO business telling a ten year vet how to handle the media....

 

Esp one that did practically NOTHING in the game to win it.

 

These guys have HUGE EGO's...

RG# has NEVER in his life faced media scrutiny...     

 

But, alas...      the media build them...  so they can bring them back down.

[FireJimCaldwell]

When I saw the report earlier I knew some would bash him for this.

 

Just amazing.

[Malakai432]

I felt kind of bad for Tony & Dallas for that matter, year after year they kind of just......fail...... They take a ton of criticism, every year people pick them to do well and every year they kind of just disappoint.

It would be tough to be a current Dallas fan.

[GrizzColt]

He meant to show support, but that was definitely sticking your foot in your mouth.  That's like going up to a fat person and saying "Don't worry about everyone thinking you are fat, you just keep being you".  Also, rookies need to keep their yap shut and Griffin isn't good at that.  

 

Btw, I heard they make a Romo cologne.  Put it on and the other guy scores.

A rookie who has earned more respect and renown in one season that Romo wishes he had. Go figure.

RGIII to Romo the uncensored version, "Don't worry that everyone calls you a choker. I know you better then most after this year and I know you are a truly swell guy. I hope we can play golf together some time this offseason so call me. Your wife is hot."

He won the NFC East in his rookie year. I think he's earned the right to utter a few words and show support to a colleague.

[southwest1]

I heard it said that NFL QB's are a special fraternity. Do DE's & LB's say sorry you missed that crucial sack in the 4th qtr? Or that's why your on defense man...Your instincts are great, your film study tremendous, but you can't catch bleep.

Look who pops up yapping about "earning respect" ...     

 

Kinda like Luck and Schaub?

No, not at all. Totally different situations.

Please do NOT feel sorry for them.  Dallas Nation is not about sport, it is about a social event, especially in my area.  They have the car flags and wear the D hats and have giant stars on the side of their cars and have Cowboy game parties, but a vast majority of their fans can't name 10 players on the team.  Troy Aikman did an interview recently bashing them....and pretty much said they as much.  That's one reason why they don't have a good home field advantage.

Or better yet Jules...RG3 to Tony Romo "For someone who plays in a billion dollar playpen in Dallas, you sure aren't money man, but you can bet your caboose I am Tony Oh No." I think I will start collecting NFC East titles now. Same time next year Tony? Nice!" HA! HA!

They all just go tailgate, sit outside the stadium and get wasted cooking up BBQ ribs and burgers all decked out in Dallas apparel while listening to the Houston Texans games or something!!!!!

Not sure what your point is.  My first statement was that he meant well...he just said the wrong thing.   Better off saying something else or nothing at all.

What's the old saying?  "Don't .....   me until YOU have walked a mile in MY shoes?"

I don't even live in Texas.  This is Memphis.  They are all over the place here.  

 

Yeah, you may be right.  I have a feeling some of them are kind of becoming Texans fans.  You gotta pull for somebody in the playoffs, right?  

[QwizBoy]

I'm just trying to figure out what exactly is wrong with what Griff said.

Yeah we have a lot of Dallas fans in Indy also same w GB. They are all over the flipping place.

[southwest1]

Normally since I detest Dallas so much, I am not in the habit of offering advice to QB Tony Romo, but if you want to resurrect your lack luster career convince Jerry Jones to hire Norv Turner as OC & fire Jason Garret.

The Cowboys have no leaders in the locker room that is why they will continue to lose at the worst possible times. Also, the team needs to get a real bona fide GM in the front office who will tell Jerry Jones to step aside in this capacity.

[John Dee]

Had Petyon Manning ...  (someone who knows more than anyone about media hammering) said it ...  no problem.

 

But a rookie who has never done anything in the league or taken any type of criticism rolls out after a huge loss and says it....

 

Just really inappropriate and out of line.  

 

 

RG3 has now idea how bad it can get.

He's done more than his fair share already I think. He faced plenty of criticism before coming into the league and still faces it now. The only QBs that aren't criticized would be Brady, Rodgers, and the aforementioned Manning but I digress. All Griffin said was that Romo is a great QB and not to let anyone tell him otherwise. If he had said Keep your head up, I'm awesome and the people are right about you, well, that would've been different.

The two might as well just get a room, some chocolates and watch the notebook together.

They should invite Eli he has some time to kill . It would just be a big East Sleepover.

He can't win.

 

You're flying off the handle because he voiced his support for a fellow quarterback. What exactly are the rules pertaining to when and how a quarterback can do this?

JD I often agree with you but not on this one. I don't think it's really a big deal at all.

 

But, I can still have fun with it.

Eli: You wanna come over and see my two rings?

Romo: Oh can I!!!

Eli: Yes I will even let you try one on.

Romo: You're my best NFC East rival friend Eli!
