It didn’t take long for Tony Romo to feel the wrath of the Packers defense on Sunday.

The highly anticipated NFC Divisional Playoff game between the Green Bay Packers and the Dallas Cowboys is underway on Sunday, and already Tony Romo is having not such a good time.

Romo and the Cowboys were the recipients of the opening kickoff, and things did not get off to a good start. The Dallas offense went 3-and-out, and the drive was capped off with Julius Peppers finding his way into the backfield, hitting Romo and forcing the ball loose.


Again, not the ideal start that the Cowboys and Romo would have wanted, but it’s still early yet.

But this was an indication of the pressure that the Packers want to bring in this one, and with the success they’ve had this year, this could end up being a long day for Tony Romo and the Cowboys when all is said and done.
