very informative. I learned tonight that after 15 seconds the mics for offense and defense are turned off. Leading Goff to wait 15 seconds to call the upcoming play. I never knew that.

This article doesn't mention it and malfunctioning headsets isn't unique to New England but that is where I learned it from.

Also the Giants used walkie talkies to cheat the 15 second rule.

I do like Tony Romo even when he was with the Cowboys and he is quite informative the little details and his play recognition is incredible.

Tony Romo was the only part of the Cowboys I liked when he was there.

I agree on Jerry Jones.
