Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't the Bears have an OUTSTANDING defense when they did that?
We don't have that there. Good defense, yes. Outstanding? Not by a long shot.

Not to mention Rex could scare people with the deep ball which gave plenty of room for Thomas Jones to continue to keep the ball for them with hard nosed running.
Brad Johnson isn't going to scare anyone deep so that running game we have now that about every other game has trouble getting going is about to have even more trouble.

Ok...well look at the trouble Romo has had hitting a lot of deep stuff lately. You really think Brad is going to have a better shot?
Lets also not forget that Romo has some mobility to extend plays, and get out of trouble, that Brad simply doesn't have.

Bears also had an opportunistic D AND Devin Hester carving up opposing STs. Oh-their 2-headed monster of Thomas J/Benson wasn't too shabby either.
However-injuries and Thomas J leaving the year after hurt them tremendously. Nonetheless, IF they had a decent QB last year, they would have made the playoffs.

When the cowboys play defense like the bears let me know.

Maybe. If that happens I'd be THRILLED. I just don't see them suddenly playing out of this world defense or ST because Romo is out.

Brad is going to protect the ball and not fumble three times a game.
He's going to have to be more-or-less a game management QB, not be asked to win like Tony. So he's not going to have the big plays, but won't have as many of the mistakes I don't think. That could work well for this team, even help out the defense.

Barber is the best offensive player the Boys have period. Who knows maybe the Boys will actually run the ball more. I would be more concerned about losing Barber then Romo.

Yes he won't fumble as much but he's going to be sacked more. That's going to kill more drives. What you're going to be seeing won't help the defense you're going to see a guy whose going to have to hope the defense steps it up majorily in order to help him.
Unless something drastically changes with the game plan and how they use some of the players.

That is beyond insane. I'd feel a lot better having to rely on Jones and Choice if Barber were to be nicked for a few games than I would Johnson having to play for our franchise QB.
