Romo's Historic Debut Against Panthers | Dallas Cowboys News
Description
Tony Romo’s first start as Dallas Cowboys quarterback on October 29, 2006, was a historic turning point — a gritty, come-from-behind 35-14 win over the Panthers that launched his legendary career. Coming in as an undrafted rookie, Romo didn’t just survive the spotlight; he thrived, leading a comeback with a touchdown to Jason Witten and a clutch fourth-quarter surge capped by Julius Jones’ TD and a two-point conversion to Terrell Owens. With 270 yards and a TD, Romo silenced doubters and ignited the offense, proving he was the franchise QB Dallas had been searching for since the Aikman era. This game wasn’t just a win — it was the birth of the Romo era.
