Romo Alters Weekly Routine; Used Layoff to ‘Check Out’ Panthers

IRVING, Texas – No one has to be reminded of Tony Romo’s performance on a short week a season ago on Thanksgiving.

After taking Wednesdays off each week to get his back and body prepared for Sundays, Romo certainly wasn’t himself last year against the Eagles, losing to the division rivals 33-10 in a game in which he finished with a 53.7 passer rating, thanks to two interceptions.

So while this once again is a short week for the Cowboys quarterback, Romo said his preparation won’t be the same this time around.
