If Romo and Big D flop this year
D_Simmons : 7/31/2009 7:28 pm
and if he doesn't win a playoff game again while fading in crunch time, what do you think are the odds that maybe the entire thing there comes crashing down? Big changes, cuts, Romo somehow being let go and Dallas literally starting over?
Dallas fans are starting to lose patience, Jerry Jones doesn't want to lose (even though he has no clue how to win anymore), and the media pressure is there.
If Romo and his Cowboys flop this year, any chance that entire team is blown up, especially since next year could be cap free?
If it does, it could blow them back to the Stone Age.
I think Jerruh will blow it up if the Cowflops don't win at least one playoff game this season.

He dumped T.O. to make things easier for Romo and Witten, and dumped some other guys who were seen as not contributing enough, including Safety Roy Williams who was a top draft choice. Jerruh can use Wade Phillips as a scapegoat, but he is getting to the point of no return with his present core personnel, particularly the OL, and he knows it.
Plus, and there is no sugar coating this, butterfingers Romo is directly responsible for the last two Cowflop playoff losses with the dropped FG hold and the end zone pick by McQuarters. One more of these critical playoff mistakes by Romo and he's toast in big D.
Compounding the problem is cash flow for the new palace they will play in. The team couldn't sell the naming rights for what they needed to get, and they need to sell seats, particularly the expensive suites. Add the ineviable expenses from the collapse of the practice dome and resultant injuries, and the financial burden gets heavier. It's a lot easier to bear with a winning team, but the Cowflops haven't won a playoff game since Christ was a Corporal - or so it seems.
When the natives start getting really restless, and the media and the fans start calling for Romo's head (the first stirrings of that were heard last season) Jerruh will have to do something to re-energize the public relations machine and put fannies in the seats. Nothing does that like a shiny new QB drafted in the first round.
What it all adds up to is that if the Cowflops don't win a playoff game this year, Phillips is gone and Romo's days in Dallas are numbered.
