    The Denver Broncos and the Dallas Cowboys are slated to square off on Sunday afternoon. And while anyone not wearing a blue-star tattoo expects Denver to roll handily — the Broncos are roughly eight-point favorites, even on the road — that's not stopping Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo from trying to shade some matchups in his favor.

    Romo, speaking to the media on Tuesday, zeroed in on the Broncos' secondary. "They grab, they hold, they've almost put a lot of pressure on the refs – whether or not they're going to call the game close or not," he said. "If they get called once or twice, that's a good thing. But they're all over guys as far as using the little tricks, I guess you could say, that good linebackers and good secondaries use when they're playing man coverage."

    Sweets's Take: Lol @ Tony Romo trying to get the refs to pay more attention to the Broncos...

    He has been playing great so far. I don't blame him for trying to get an edge. This Denver team is down right unbelievable.

    He gave credit to Denver's defense for doing what the refs will allow. All teams try these things and see what the officials will allow. I have no problem with what he said.

    I don't either. Smart on his part. What's wrong with planting a seed?

    Bulletin board material? Babying to the refs is hardly bulletin board material.. If anything Denver players are laughing.

    I heard this morning that Garrett did the same thing with the Denver media yesterday. Why not? I seem to recall that Phil Jackson did the same thing when he was HC. Didn't turn out too bad for him.
