Wow, blaming the girlfriend on losing the game. What a concept. Tsk tsk. But holing out and study game tapes for a week sure did not help Peyton Manning much, did it? And how many years was Manning a disappointment playoff after playoff prior to last year? Then there's Brett Favre. How many years again was he a "journey" man before tasting success in Green Bay? This is basically Tony Romo's first year as a starter and already the team made it to the playoffs. Sheeesh. Just because you signed a huge contract doesn't mean you can perform miracles.
