I could not DISAGREE more with this statement! Putting Romo in is not writing off the season...it's giving us a better chance to WIN.

Bledsoe has proven over and over he will not be able to take us there...there is so much track record to pull from it's ridiculas...

I disagree. Romo would get crushed behind this line. I would be no different than it is in Buffalo right now. Bledsoe out and a 4 year "bench warmer" comes in and f'ks up the entire season.

Sure, they did that in Buffalo and it worked great :laugh2:

In New England's 2001 season, Brady ran a vanilla offense but the won the SB because of defense and special teams. Dallas doesnt have the players on D and ST to pull that off.

New England put in a guy at tackle who had a total of 3 years experience in football? :eek: :splat:

You can not compare one situation with another because they are all different...that's as crazy as me saying that Romo would become the next Brady, which I'm not.

Every situation is different...I saw Romo in person up close and based off of what I saw I believe Romo can help us win...that's my opinion.

Odds are 99% that pulling Bledsoe means writing off the season. Fans may like that idea but JJ and BP aren't that stupid. Post season hopes need to be over before Bledsoe is benched.

I agree. BP and Jerry are not going to take an unnecessary chance at this stage of the season. I’m not going to say there will not come a time when the move might be made but I don’t see it happening this early in the season.

sure they are, so is Tennessee......;)

That Tenn team that almost beat the Colts in Indy last week? Your right Tenn also is a pro team with professional players. Being a bad team means you lack consistency in your play but it does not mean players can't go out and have a big day

He should be put on notice. He's been a POS for the most part.


You meant overpriced POS, didn't you?;)

Whoa... now... just hold a cotton pickin minute...

Last year I said that Flo sucked and wasn't the reason that Bledsoe sucked...

I was told that I was a moron and that Flo was the best O-lineman that Dallas had and that had he continued to play Bledsoe would have blown away all kinds of single season records....

I asked ya'll if you were kidding me..."Ole false start Flo" I asked ... "Ole hold'em and fold'em Flo" he is our best lineman?... and I was told that beyond all doubt that he was and was the sole contributing factor to Blesoe's horrible numbers...

now if I have this straight Flo sucks and it is him that is causing Bledsoe to suck...

hmmm is this what you all are trying to tell old Zaxor...

cause if it is...I think I will have a few choice words that might sound like *#&$^% and $&&%*@

I don't have an opinion on whether McQuistan is ready or if Adams should be benched.

But I do find some irony in the discussion. Adams' injury was widely seen as the main source of Cowboys' downfall last year. During the offseason, virtually all fans (myself included) saw Adams' return as crucial to the Cowboys success. And now there is speculation that he could/should be benched.....

If you check a thesaurus, the term "NFL" is a synonym of "irony".

Cowboys | Adams could be benched
Fri, 13 Oct 2006 07:19:59 -0700
Clarence E. Hill Jr., of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, reports Dallas Cowboys head coach Bill Parcells left open the possibility that OT Flozell Adams could be benched if his play does not improve soon. The Cowboys could turn to rookie OL Pat McQuistan to replace Adams.

is this the same flo adams that i said last year was never our anchor and never really more than average to above average, so his coming back from injury wasn't really a WOO-HOO!!! so many were making it out to be???

amazing.

Amen --Trade him to San Fran --they like big --non moblile , I'd rather just
draw a check, lineman---Flo never has --and more importantly never will
even be more then just a average lineman who can't handle speed rushers.Maybe he was
one of the best we had last year --but compared to what -a rookie, an undersize center ,an recovering from injury lineman and.... Hang in there Zaxor

So Purcells may play a rookie at LT to protect him bum QB that can't move a lick, but he won't play Romo.

Fascinating.

if nothing else, McQ should be active on gamedays and rotated in for a series or 2 to see what he can do.

the quickest way to frustration is to expect consistancy out of parcells across the board.

he's got consistancy1 he reserves for "parcells guys"
and he's got consistancy2 the rest of the world has to live by

The only way you will see McQuistan this week is if you rent Mask. So get to your video store if you are so hot on the guy.

You sir are out of control;)
