Carrie Underwood's Play on Tony Romo

The Star QB Isn't The Only Playcaller

While driving into Playmaker's Global HQ this morning, I heard for the first time Carrie Underwood's Cowboy Casanova (I know, the song is four-months-old already), in which she alludes to a certain ex-beau who may or may not play QB for the Dallas Cowboys.

Anyhow, the song lit up my playmaking radar screen for the sheer amount of plays she ran on Señor Romo in the song.  So in the spirit, we couldn't help but create a poll to see what plays you think she's running, or at least what her primary play is (see Playmaker's Poll on homepage). 

So watch the video and go vote, but don't cheat, or risk Miss Underwood taking a Louisville slugger to both of your headlights.

Carrie Underwood

Good one - but I think Carrie played a Red Herring or screen on you as she is probably refering to someone else, as Tony has brown eyes.
