“He’s like a snake, man,” fumed Redskins linebacker Brian Orakpo, who narrowly missed sacking Romo twice on key third-down plays. “You got to know when you’re rushing, he’s slippery, he’s all over the place. I can’t stand playing against this guy, because it don’t matter if you beat your guy. You got to worry about him. That’s the frustrating part.”

Laz can answer this better than myself, but I don't think Orakpo has sacked Romo yet.

Free did a great job on him, I don't remember him having any great shots at getting a sack.

Looking at Orakpo's game logs, he's kind of a piece of shit pass rusher.

One thing I'll say about the Redskins edge rushers... they get up the field in a heart beat.

Seems to me if we ran more three step drops and quick throws, that pass rush would be useless.

Couldn't understand why we kept doing 5 step drops all game.

I guess it's easier to say Romo is good, than to admit that you suck, eh Orakpoop?

I couldn't believe they didn't throw a flag on the romo to Bryant throw in ot free was just holding him by his jersey!!

Orakpo had both hands on romo in 09 on that gw Td throw to crayton and he just spun right out of it...

I've seen worse done to Ware in that game that went uncalled. Sorry if I am not shedding any tears.

I still can't believe teams haven't figured out that roll, Romo started doing it for big plays since '09. I guess it's a heat of the moment thing and they aren't looking for it, even though they know it's there.

There's not a better QB in the league at doing that.

Theres no way to prepare for that move, you just have to hope he doesn't see you.

You should here what Redskins' fans are saying about him now. The exact same stuff I said about him from the get go. But as always they accuse me of being a Redskins' hater---which I am, but as always they are late to the party. He's a Lavar Arrington clone: overrated because he makes a few plays, but whiffs on many more, and has a big mouth and doesn't back it up.

I'm not sure it would make too much of a difference, because along with that, you have Romo's quick release. This is what made Romo, Romo. And he needs to continue doing it, instead of this "standing tall in the pocket bullshit". That works for Brady, but not for Romo.
