MINNEAPOLIS -- As much as Tony Romo's career with the Dallas Cowboys will be remembered for shiny statistics and scene-stealing celebrity (his friendship with Tiger Woods and his dating relationship with Jessica Simpson come to mind), he'll also leave the NFL with a handful of ignominious playoff defeats attached to his name.
Minnesota Vikings fans will fondly recall one of them. Their current head coach would cringe at the memory of another.
Romo's first playoff game as the Cowboys' quarterback was also Mike Zimmer's final game as the team's defensive coordinator.
