That was always the million dollar question... a well-constructed team should not fall apart like they did last year. That is why the coaching took such criticism.
Saying it's easy is not being entirely fair to Dak either, as he still has to do his job... but after just reviewing the game again a few minutes ago, it's hard to say that very many of his throws are throws you couldn't expect Romo to easily make, or really any halfway decent QB... especially against and injury-riddled, horrible defense like the Bears. And to be fair, Tony himself has had plenty of easy nights where he benefited when the offensive line, running backs and receivers are clicking. It's not a knock on Dak to say it was easy.
None of our backups last year were anywhere ready to play like DAK is coming out of college.
All those guys..Weeden, Cassell, etc. we're practically career backups who were not playing for teams.
DAK has played 4 years in the college level carrying a major college program on his back.
He's just sharper..in better condition and mentally fresher than these other guys.
I have a feeling he's going to dwarf Romo when he comes back.
The team is going to struggle because the identity DAK is establishing is so different and diverse compared to Romo..we are all going to scream for DAK to return.
What I''m hoping is that Romo doesn't quickly lose whatever DAK gains in the W-L record before we switch back to DAK.
This staff is very stubborn.
They were stubborn about keeping Weeden and failed.
They were stubborn about Cassel and he failed.
Being stubborn with Romo could divide this team against the coaches and ownership.
I think they must stay with DAK until its clear he is failing and then make a change.
Not before.
