Tony Romo and the disappearing 4th down

While Broncos country celebrated its third goal line stop of the Dallas Cowboys in the game’s waning seconds Sunday, quarterback Tony Romo tried to rally his troops back to the line for that fourth and final try.

Except there wasn’t one. Romo had spiked the football and killed the clock on second down and apparently forgot he was out of tries. Take a look:

Now, it can be easy for a FAN to get lost in the heat of the moment in a big football game, but generally, it’s important for the QUARTERBACK to be in tune with the flow of the game. You know, little things, like the given down of any play, when a play is his team’s absolute final last shot for the tie, etc.. Quite a snafu there by the ex-Mr. Jessica Simpson.
