The next time Tony Romo wants to invite the superstar singer he's dating to Texas Stadium for a game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles, he should reconsider according to the Los Angeles Times.

On Sunday, current flame Jessica Simpson was in a luxury suite, and the Cowboys lost, 10-6. Under the "Jessica Jinx," Romo completed 13 of 36 passes for 214 yards with no touchdowns and three interceptions for a 22.2 rating — the lowest single-game rating of his career. He also bruised the thumb area on his throwing hand.

Romo's previous low rating came last Christmas when the Eagles defeated the Cowboys, 23-7, in front of then-girlfriend Carrie Underwood. The "Carrie Curse" led Romo to pass for a career-low 142 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions for a 45.5 rating.
