Stamp Of Approval: Roger Staubach is a Tony Romo fan
Stamp Of Approval
It's official: Cowboys Hall of Fame quarterback Roger Staubach is a Tony Romo fan, and to no one's surprise, he sees a little of himself in the Cowboys' new starting quarterback.
"You got to have the mental toughness to play that position," Staubach said, "and things don't seem to bother him, even like in Carolina when he was behind 14-0. I'm on the bandwagon - I'm a Tony Romo fan."
Staubach, who had a strong arm, no doubt, was a crafty quarterback who could use his legs to make plays. At times, he was at his best when having to improvise to pick up a third down. Maybe that's why he likes Romo just three starts into his NFL career.
"You got to move the football and get third downs," Staubach said, "so we are alike. I think he has the same knack to figure out how to move the football."
