Does Jessica Simpson's BF Tony Romo Have Performance Anxiety?

Posted by Emily Farris

A few months ago we started to see TV commercials for official women's NFL gear. We were kind of grossed out by it, mostly because the girls in the commercials had big hair and acrylic nails and were high-fiving each other in midriff-baring football jerseys, and we thought, if they were going to go that route, wasn't the whole point to be "cute" wearing some guy's over-sized jersey with undersized shorts or something? We also aren't big fans of football or the color pink. Isn't the whole point of wearing team gear to wear team colors? Despite all that, we haven't seen Jessica in a while, so we were pleasantly surprised to see this photo of her in a pinkish Dallas Cowboys jersey at the game last night (oh, hey, there was a game last night?), supporting her new boyfriend Tony Romo, even though he seems to have a little performance anxiety when it comes to the ladies:

Her new boyfriend struggled all game, throwing three interceptions and fumbling the ball twice as his heavily favored Cowboys lost to the Philadelphia Eagles, 10-6. At one point, the network even showed a montage of Simpson, 27, spliced with shots of Romo's bad throws. As commentator Joe Buck noted, "It's never easy to play in front of your girlfriend."

That seems especially true for Romo. The 27-year-old Pro-Bowler ended the game with a quarterback rating of just 22.2 – that's the worst ever in his entire career. (In comparison, his average rating this year is over 100.) His previous low? Last December, when then-girlfriend Carrie Underwood was in the stands.
