--Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis is not that impressed with Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo.
"Tony Romo, he's an up-and-down quarterback," Lewis said. "You can see him. Sometimes he can get blazing hot. He can make the same throws off (his) back foot and the same throws throwing sideways. And then sometimes he doesn't. Sometimes he makes those same throws and they're huge mistakes."
Lewis said the key against Romo is pressure.
"I think the thing you can't do is just sit back there and let him be comfortable, because Dallas, of course, has a lot of weapons on the offensive side of the ball, as well as defensive side of the ball," Lewis said. "But, you read about Terrell (Owens), or (Marion) Barber, or (Jason) Witten, all these guys. He has a lot of playmakers on his side of the ball, so to let him sit back there and pick and choose, I think that's where he's most successful. People that have had success against him have really made him not sit back there comfortable."
