The Dallas Cowboys thought they had a new dynasty on their hands in the Terrell Owens era with Tony Romo; it all came crashing down on the plane ride back from a bitter fall-from-ahead loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
At least, that appears to be the tipping point in a story told by former Cowboys WR Patrick Crayton. On the JacquesTalk show with Jean Jacques Taylor, he relayed a story about how a joke suddenly lost its humor. He noticed Romo working on plays individually with TE Jason Witten, and accidentally brought it to everyone’s attention.
