Rust? Maybe. If so, it’s not all gone. Romo’s second pass of the Thanksgiving game against the Panthers in Arlington was returned 36 yards for a touchdown by Kurt Coleman, just 59 seconds into play. It won’t go down as the best decision of Romo’s season and was just one bad part of a hideous 33-14 loss for Dallas.

Romo’s pick was his fifth in his four games … to go with five touchdowns, which may or may not be anything to be concerned about, unless the Cowboys lose Thursday to the Panthers by a touchdown or less.
On the brighter side, it was his first pick-six since September 2014, by the Rams’ Janoris Jenkins, that gave the Rams a 21-0 lead. An even better omen from that: the Cowboys came back to win that game, 34-31, tied for the biggest comeback in franchise history.
