Disappointed no realistic/potential heir apparent after Romo to watch tonight

[JackOfNoTrades]

Pretty much tracking our "backup" and......

 

[WPBCowboysFan]

Will any Pats, Saints, Packers, Broncos or Colts fans be watching any heir apparents?

Relax Bro, you're in elite company.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

A replacement to sit on the bench for 3-4 years?

So, you wanted Johnny Football?

This board has been such a bunch of Debbie downers lately. Better close all of the bridges in Texas.

very happy with Zach. The QB depth chart in Weeden and Hanie says nothing other than filling in for Romo if he goes down, not much more.

Problem is - those teams are good.

Of course he could go down. That is football. And if Romo does go down, well....perhaps next draft they pick up a QB.

But, Romo is not done and Weeden seems to be able to play for a while just in case.

Actually, the Broncos have been watching Osweiler for a few seasons.

Yes - because they think Romo has time left. If he didn't, they'd have and "heir" by now.

If he goes down again this season, they'll draft a QB. They'd have to.

The only reason we'd have a chance this year to maybe make the playoffs would be Romo playing well (and healthy). If he goes down, no matter who replaces him, we have no shot. Manziel or no Manziel.

But can't that be said about most teams in the NFL? Forget comparing to the elite teams ...
Who is staffords heir apparent?
Maninng in NY?
Flacco in Balt
Etc etc ... Don't get me wrong .. They will need to identify the qb of the future .... Soon... Just not yet .. Maybe this season will be the one that pushes them to that point ...

To be clear with you, I have no interest in Manziel. When Drew went down (by choice or not), Romo came in and it went from there. Not liking that there's no matriculating QB, that I know of, on the roster now that could offer longer term options

Exactly what we'd be doing had we drafted JF...

A replacement wouldn't sit on the bench that long. Not if he were any good.

 

[KB1122]

Manziel was at the top of the draft board. It's at a position of uncertainty, at best. He should have been the pick.

Can we wait until Manziel sucks before we talk about him being "the pick". We're not rebuilding. Why on earth would you waste a draft pick on Manziel when you had offensive line and defensive line needs AMONG other things?

Actually, the Broncos have been watching Osweiler for a few seasons.

And the Pats have Jimmy Garapolo. Not to mention Luck and Rodgers are a heck of a lot younger. So really outside the Saints that list is bunk.

Lol

Any good can surpass Romo?

He'd have to be damn good pretty much near elite to take that job.

As long as Romo is a Cowboy and with his salary, a replacement would be sitting on the bench. It is what it is. What replacement is gonna be better than Romo (a healthy Romo)? Manziel, no.
