Cowboys owner Jerry Jones defended Tony Romo from criticism by Troy Aikman, who said that because success has come so quickly for the undrafted Eastern Illinois product that Romo "hasn't fully grasped what being the Cowboys quarterback is all about." "I've always been so amused about any talk of Tony and his focus on football and his work ethic," Jones says. "Tony's boring. He won't talk about anything but football and the Cowboys and how to move the ball and what plays we should run. "I don't know (that) I've been around anybody who's just that into football. I wish he would talk more about spicy things, but I can't get him to."
I'm sure he could, but what's to defend? He has pro-bowl numbers and way more wins then losses. He just hasn't gotten over the hump yet and that can be said about at least 80% of quarterbacks.
