Per ESPNDallas, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones couldn't have been more pleased with the way QB Tony Romo gift-wrapped a victory for the Jets on Sunday night: Romo accepted the blame for the loss -- the first in franchise history after leading by 14 points in the fourth quarter -- after losing a fumble at the Jets' 2-yard line and throwing an interception that set up the game-winning field goal.
While disappointed by the finish, Jones was encouraged by watching the three-time Pro Bowl quarterback pass for 342 yards and two touchdowns against one of the league's elite defenses.
"This may draw a little criticism, but I thought Tony played one of the best games I've ever seen him play," Jones said during a Tuesday appearance on KRLD-FM, the team's flagship station. "You can make a big case that the way he played for three quarters was how we got there at the end and looked like for sure we were going to get the win. But he played outstanding."
Jones could not be reached, we presume, for comment on Donovan McNabb's "exceptional" Week 1 output.
