Play Henson/romo Please

[Clove]

It's time to see what we have in these guys, and Bledsoe has nothing to gain. We know what he can do, and plus he's going to be the starter next year, so let's get them in Parcells.

[Juke99]

It ain't gonna happen...

[iceberg]

juke, you dreamkiller... : )

[Clove]

Sad to say, but you may be right. We desperately need to see what these guys can do with a starting cast.

[Asklesko]

But Bledsoe says no, and whatever he says goes :rolleyes:

[kojak]

Would love to see them, but I wont hold my breath on it. I know Bill is playing to win no matter what happened today.

[DWAREZ]

It ain't gonna happen...

Juke is right..they will play for 10-6 unless we blow them out which we will not

[TwoDeep3]

So, the coaches don't see what they do each week in practice.

Keep the losers on the bench and let's win this game.

[Clove]

Wish Beriault was healthy as well, I'd like to see him as well, along with Gurode at Guard again.

[big dog cowboy]

Sadly, I doubt we see Romo or Henson at all. I still don't understand either.

[CowboyFan74]

romo starts second half

[CanadianCowboysFan]

Screw that, I want to win. Those guys didn't get many snaps this year, and at least with a win we can say we won 10 games and are only the fifth team in history to win 10 and miss the playoffs.

I absolutely agree if the Cowboys play Henson or Romo at least i'll feel like this last week wasn't a waste but man with Parcells never. Which is a complete shame because Bledsoe doesn't even need this game and would be a complete waste of a game

[BigDFan5]

Play to win

[iceberg]

Play to win

by finding out what you have when you can, you're *trying* to set up for a longer term BETTER team, hence more wins.

there's a lot more than *TODAY* to all this people.

[Dave_in-NC]

With us still being in the hunt untill an hour ago, I doubt Romo took many snapps this week. He wont play.

[bbgun]

Play to win

So Manning and Brady should have played the whole game today, huh?

[Vman]

Well, you can scratch Henson.

I'm most positive that Spags just said he is on the in-active list for this game.

[jackrussell]

The never ending need of fans needing to see with their own eyes what the coaches already know.

[Dave_in-NC]

The never ending need of fans needing to see with their own eyes what the coaches already know.

But how do the coaches know if these guys dont see live action? :D

[Clove]

The never ending need of fans needing to see with their own eyes what the coaches already know.If they are that bad, then shame on Parcells for putting sorry QB's behind Bledsoe in a playoff fight.

[Dave_in-NC]

Not many teams have great back ups at QB. You cant afford them. Back up QBs should be servicable, I would think that is what Parcells thinks of Romo. Does it matter if we see it?

[jimmy40]

The never ending need of fans needing to see with their own eyes what the coaches already know.Scott Brunner over Phil Simms. Remember that?

Why? They belong in the NFL Europe. That is where they can start.

[jackrussell]

I agree.

[Chuck 54]

Let's see...we want Atlanta and Philly to play games that are meaningless to them like it's the SB and get pissed when their scrub QB is pulled for another scrubb QB, yet we think our meaningless game is an ideal time to play backups and evaluate them....that's somewhat ironic and hypocritical.

I say play to win...if we get up big or down big, play Romo. Of course, we're not the coaches...maybe they already know what they have without playing him in a game...of course, that would mean they know he stinks....I think if either of our youngsters were lighting it up in practice and showing exciting strides, the coaches would then be looking for opportunities to get a look see in a game.

[CanadianCowboysFan]

The games for Atlanta and Philadelphia were NOT meaningless, unlike our's which will have no effect on anything.

That might make sense but nobody else's playoff hopes are riding on this game tonight. Not quite the same thing.

[jackrussell]

Scott Brunner over Phil Simms. Remember that?

Hey, you NEED to see them, and I don't. If they play, fine, if they don't, big deal. A quarter or half against the Rams will provide us no more information than we already know, nada.

He has no reason to, thats the point. He knows how they can play.

it'll be a waste of time, all we'll see is a greenhorn QB, not ready to lead a franchise...one game means

how is a win, a "waste of a game"

[Clove]

it'll be a waste of time, all we'll see is a greenhorn QB, not ready to lead a franchise...one game means shatOutstanding, let's ditch these losers in the offseason and go after a QB in the first round. He can back up Bledsoe, and we can get some dumb smuck to play 3rd string and get on with it.

Bledsoe can play one more year and get lost, then we can play the new guy and our future starts then. But why waste time with these bums if they can't play.

[jbsg02]

Romo won't start, but I think if Bledsoe is REALLY struggling then Romo MIGHT play.

[Da Hammer]

how is a win, a "waste of a game"
What do we gain if Bledsoe is in there and wins the game???? I'm not saying i don't want to win, i'm saying that it would be much more valuable to this team if one of our young QB's is in there gets good experience and maybe gets the win. We already know what Bledsoe's strengths and weaknesses are, so does every other team in the league. But we don't know what Romo's and Henson's are

I don't know of any QB who gained much from playing a single game...and I don't know if any team knowing for sure what they got in a young QB, after a single game...

so pardon me if I don't buy into, "we need to see what we have in our young QB, in this 1 game"

[Clove]

Please!

[Bob Sacamano]

Please!

please as in you don't have anything to refute me? ;)

[Clove]

I just want a reason to be happy, this is depressing.

[BigDFan5]

What do we gain if Bledsoe is in there and wins the game????

a 10th win

[jimmy40]

please as in you don't have anything to refute me? ;)what the F is there to gain by watching Bledsoe? one more win for Parcells? Throw the young guys a bone, you think they care if they get sacked 10 times? They want to play.

[jimmy40]

a 10th winand if we lose?

[BigDFan5]

what the F is there to gain by watching Bledsoe? one more win for Parcells? Throw the young guys a bone, you think they care if they get sacked 10 times? They want to play.



So to hell with winning a 10th game right? lets give backups a couple series which does absolutely nothing as far as evaluation right?

what he said

[jimmy40]

So to hell with winning a 10th game right? lets give backups a couple series which does absolutely nothing as far as evaluation right?So Parcells knows he has no chance in hell to win with either backup playing?

[BigDFan5]

and if we lose?


Then we lose.

[BigDFan5]

So Parcells knows he has no chance in hell to win with either backup playing?


You give your team the best chance to win which as everyone knows even those unwilling to admit it, Bledsoe is the best chance to win.

[iceberg]

You give your team the best chance to win which as everyone knows even those unwilling to admit it, Bledsoe is the best chance to win.

and some seem unwilling to admit you can take a short term chance on a long term payout. if the goal is to win what if we *risk* losing this game but the experience we give the qb helps him win 2 more?

net, we get your end result just a different way.

it's not so much the reluctance of another qb in there but the reluctance to offer experience at opportune times.
