NFL: Tony Romo, Dallas Cowboys should part ways after latest loss - Page 7 - Dallas Cowboys Forum

RESIN8 · 12-31-2012

3-13, 8-8... Whats the difference? This franchise has settled for being mediocre and saying "better luck next year". We all know what needs to be done to fix the culture of this organization and who bares all the blame for this. Unfortunately what needs to be done: Blowing it all up, hiring a football gm and starting from scratch. That will not happen.

This kind of reminds me of what went on at Cal this year. Another mediocre year and the program backers felt like Jeff Tedford was holding the program back. Tedford was cruising due to a non buy out clause in his contract. He was good till 2015. THe backers got together and voiced their opinion that Tedford needed to get fired or the school would have to deal with the prospects that nobody would buy tickets for next year(mainly the big donor alumni). Eventually the voice was heard and Tedford was fired.

I think this franchise has been taken hostage by Jerry Jones. He knows that Cowboy fan will still continue to pay for a mediocre product. Thus taking the average fan for granted as he rolls the dice to make a successful team that he can champion as his own.

These are dangerous times because at what point does JJ try and improve this team with another Joey Galloway or Roy Williams trade. Those types of trades are the ones that set this franchise back years. That and the negligence to find a real safety and oline.

I really can't entertain any other way around this. Do any of you really see a bright future ahead. All I see is a poorly coached team with average personnel choices.

Seriously, who is this imaginary team that everyone thinks is lurking in shadows waiting on Romo to be released so they can win the SB?

I'm thinking he's both. Just not a fan of you or those like you, just sayin

He does not need to go anywhere, he will be extended and he will get it done right here with the Dallas Cowboys.

With that being said, I will agree he does press, and tries to do too much, I blame him, but then I again I understand why he does it, after season after season teammates letting him down and critics blaming him, stating that he has to get it done, it makes a person try to do it all.

Third season coming up for Garrett, and it will be the breakout season for him and his team. Back when he was hired to take over for wade, it was said that we were in at least a 3 year rebuilding status, but Jerry and the organization did not want to say that we were, that is exactly what has been going on whether we admit it or not.

When Gil Brandt speaks you listen...

Yeah, keep thinking that there is a no difference between being supportive of a QB and thinking they're elite and could win a SB. I remember when Aikman said QC would lead us to the promise land after that 10-6 season he and Parcells engineered.

Now, do you think Brandt has a right to have that opinion? Do you think he has seen anyone WORK with QB's in the past?

Hey I'm good at working with people too in the software industry. It doesn't mean I can train them and fix their problems and that is what was so obviously implied. Anybody who can read can see that from what you quoted.

Gil Brandt is spot on...

Yes, because your hyperbole was the most effective method for telling me that. And yes I know who Gil Brandt is. I also know who Bill Polian, Parcells, Aikman, and Staubach are. Thanks for the lesson.

The changes made to the culture and roster the last two to three years is proof we are past the "better luck next year" stage. Unfortunately we drafted so poorly before that it is a work in progress but clearly we are headed in the right direction.

I'm torn on Romo....really am.

I see the talent oozing out of him, I see the quick release, I see the houdini-like escapability, I see the accuracy, I see his ability to bring his team back from deficits.

But than I see a fragile psyche-a qb yelling at his receivers after every pick. I see a quarterback who buckles when the game is on the line. I see a quarterback who doesn't do the little things to help win games. I see a guy who can't help his team move the chains after he erases the deficit.

In the end, I think I see the Friday night hottie whom you love to party with, but not the Saturday night marriage potential with whom you love to stay home and watch a dvd.

UncFelix28 · 01-01-2013

Well he doesn't speak for me... Hey Gil, go write some articles about Jerry needing to sign a legit offensive & defensive line & fix the real holes on this team. Not sexy enough GIL?? Even if Romo wins last night, he definitely isn't winning in the playoffs without Dez/Miles/Beasley & a running game, Spencer on the defensive side & a Demarcus Ware that can't do anything out on the field with his injuries..

I hope he is right.

JG isn't stupid. He knows Romo is the only QB who can win games using JG's crappy offense.

You're welcome. You obviously need one.

Why didn't Red adapt to the severe blitzing by the Redskins. 4 Quarters and he still didn't even figure out how to punish them. This team will never win with Garrett in control. Stop blaming Romo , get him a real coach and people in front to block, and then we will see what he can do.
