Clutchness is something everybody seems to bring up. How many game winning drives have they had? Well, was it Tony Romo's fault that the field goal attempt was blocked? Or his receiver dropped a touchdown? Or his offensive line failed to protect him? Too many variables, even during "clutch" situations.
So, yes, it was his fault, both for mishandling the snap and for gaining nothing when he took off and ran. Kind of impressive in an "OMFG" sort of way; he managed to choke in the clutch twice on a single play.
I was referring to the Giants game last year. He was trying to argue that the safety in the 1st quarter was the difference.
So the 2 point safety was on Romo, and the Giants great field position on the ensuing free kick, leading to their FG. That is 5 points in a game NY won by 3, so....

Ben Roethlisberger is better than Philip Rivers as of now, regardless of stats.

Sorry, the FG attempt was not blocked: Romo bobbled the snap, then ran for 0 yards.
