That's one play, and after the lead was already blown. Did Romo change every running play after the first drive of the second half to a pass?

Yet another twist. Apparently the play was a run with a pass option if the defense stacked the box (moved up an extra guy to better defense against the run), which the Packers did. Romo saw this and passed, like he was supposed to do. In other words, Garrett is really to blame for that play call. But... when the Packers missed the sack on the play leaving a one on one situation with a receiver, Romo should have hit his guy, hence it's Romo's fault. But... despite knowing the Packers were anticipating a run, given the Cowboys were gaining on the ground anyway, Garrett really should have just called a straight run, hence Garrett is really to blame. But... even still, Romo, knowing the ground game was working still could have handed off despite the play call. But, knowing Romo might make the wrong decision by not running, Garrett really should have told Romo to run that play as a straight run. But...
