The Cowboys have been so mediocre around him that's he hasn't really played in many big games. 8 TDs to 2 INT in 6 playoff starts. Only two wins, but again, more to do with rest of team than him. And now he doesn't have to carry the offense by himself with the weight on his shoulders. Romo in there opens it up more for Zeke to carry the load and gives them the ability to have a healthy mix of pass and run against great Ds. The Giants aren't a particularly great D but they forced the Cowboys into a situation where they had to rely on Dak throwing the ball and he predictably failed. With Romo in it would've been more open for Zeke earlier and they'd have never been in that position. And Romo in that position tonight would do much better than Dak. His success has been mainly because of two things. The offensive line. And defenses keying in entirely on the run game.
