Many of you are going to hate this because it can disrupt team chemistry.

I am just thinking of what Jerry said, and interpreting it a little.
May be FO thinks Romo cannot stay healthy if he were to play every game.
Perhaps they are saving him for the post season.

Obviously you cannot just put him in totally rusty.
Perhaps there is some way of sprinkling him in.

For example, it is safer to put him in for 1st downs where run and pass are both options.
Never put him in on 3rd and long.
On some 1st downs, you can also put him in with 4 wideouts where he hands the off to Zeke.
The 4 wideouts and possibly 1 safety would only leave 6 to defend the run or blitz.
In that case, he would simply make the D respect the pass a little more and give Zeke a little more room.
Perhaps even run from the shotgun?
Limit his passing plays to may be 3-4 per game on 1st and 10?

Running away as fast as possible :eek:

Is this a Dallas thing or do I just not watch TV enough?

It was a national TV campaign last year (heavy online presence, too), but I think it lost a lot of its steam since Romo was out for most of the season.
 
Jerry did say something about "seeing them both," or something a few weeks ago. But you know, its Jerry, so who the heck knows what he meant.
 
You either go full Romo or you don't.

if it is done as a trick play every so often (e.g. 3-4 tiems a game), it may not hurt chemistry
