I know the obvious answer from a homer and Romo nuthugging standpoint is yes....but what if Romo's 15 minutes have ran it's course? What if it's all downhill from here? We do have a much more difficult schedule on paper next year and the book appears to out on Romo and his limited abilities.
But first let's look at the rest of the division:
Washington - Has found their apparent QB of the future in Jason Campbell, but bad drafting and personell decisions will probably haunt this team for at least the next few years but Campbell gives them a chance to do damage.
NYG - Eli Manning is a bust and with thier best player retiring it's not hard to imagine this team hitting rock bottom. Defense could possibly be worst than ours.
Philly - McNabb is still the man provided he's healthy, Andy Reid is the best coach in the division and they have the best defense in the division.
Quick Synopsis - Philly still owns the division and that should be the case the next few years, also if Jason Campbell is the real deal like I believe he is than we will be playing catch up to the Commanders.
Now evaluating our own deficiencies...it's easy to say we will suck if Romo's digression continues and he's not a legit franchise QB, but our problems go beyond just Romo:
Offensive line - still a major problem since the superbowl days and this needs to be the #1 priority this offseason. Bye bye Rivera, Flozell....Center also needs to be addressed. Amazing that a guy nobody expected anything from is a our best player: Columbo.
Secondary - RW is the most overrated player in the league, don't care how hard he hits because he can't cover anybody. FS is also a lingering issue since the days of Darren Woodson, and why this has not been adequately addresed mystifies me especially since we have had opportunitys to sign marquee free agents year after year and passed. Newman is the only good player we have and even he's starting to look like Dog Poo because Henry sucks and is a waste of roster space too. Why we didn't sign Charles Woodson, Dwight Smith, or Ty Law has left me dumbfounded.
Pass Rush - We have a collection of defensive players that have talent, but don't fit our system. Ware is a good player, but he's not a gamechanger like Shawn Merriman or a true 3-4 linebacker. We parted ways with two young players (Fujita and Shanle) who were a great fit for our defense and have contributed to the Saints resurgence. Spears is a bust, and will Ellis career in limbo we need to get an impact player than knows how to get after the QB and wreak havoc!
The bottom line is we can't fix every problem with one swing of the bat so which QB will we see in 2007? The young, confident QB with moxie and potential? Or will Tony HOMO rear his ugly head and drag this team further into the abyss as we continue our decade long search to replace a legend?
