Tony Romo, quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys, has been called soft as well as a choker. He gained some fans last week when he led the Cowboys to victory as he dealt with a punctured lung. Now the Washington Redskins are looking to get in Romo’s head as the teams prepare to meet for their Monday Night Football clash.

Redskins defensive back, DeAngelo Hall, has already told the media he target Romo and focus on his mid-section when tackling the quarterback. “I want to get a chance to put my helmet on whatever’s hurt,” Hall said. “If it’s Romo’s ribs? I’m going to be asking for some corner blitzes.”

If Hall does knock Romo out of the game it will be the first time the light corner ever knocked a player out of a game. ESPN’s Mark Schlereth, took exception to someone like Hall stepping up and speaking about knocking Romo out of the game.

“That’s the first time you’re ever going to hit anybody,” he ranted sarcastically. “Good for you. That’s great. That’s awesome.

The Cowboys come into this game with a high-powered offense and a defense that is still trying to find themselves. Another key to this game is that the Cowboys have never won a home in Cowboys Stadium. A fact that has not escaped Jerry Jones, the Cowboys outspoken owner.

The Redskins have looked improved over last year but they are definitely a work in progress. Mike Shanahan is turning the team into a bump and grind offense and an aggressive defense but the team is still a work in progress.

Seems to me that there might be some pretty good NFL betting props for this match up.
