Tony Romo returns Sunday for the Dallas Cowboys against the Miami Dolphins.

How much of a difference will he make? Who wins Sunday's game?

Here are the predictions from SportsDay's experts and an assembly of writers who cover the Dolphins.

SPORTSDAY PICKS
Tim Cowlishaw Cowboys, 19-17: Romo's return doesn't exactly ignite the Cowboys' offense, but it does minimize mistakes enough to end the losing streak.

Michael Florek Cowboys, 24-21: Tony Romo leads the game-winning drive his backups couldn't, and the Cowboys keep hope alive for a few more days.

Brandon George Cowboys, 24-21: The Cowboys will be energized by the return of QB Tony Romo, who will end the club's seven-game losing streak while extending his road winning streak to 11 games.

Rick Gosselin Dolphins, 23-17: The Dolphins will not see the Tony Romo who won the NFL passing title in 2015. They'll see the Tony Romo who hasn't thrown a pass or seen a rush in two months.

Barry Horn Dolphins, 24-20: A man named Suh makes life difficult for Tony Romo and a depleted Cowboys running game. Cowboys can take solace if Romo shows he's ready for remainder of the season.

Jon Machota Cowboys, 27-17: Tony Romo looks like his old self in the second half, gets some thinking maybe the Cowboys really can still "win the whole [expletive] thing."

David Moore Cowboys, 24-20: Tony Romo produces a touchdown and three or four first downs in his return that the offense had been missing. The losing streak is broken.

Kevin Sherrington Cowboys, 24-21: Romo to the rescue.

Rainy day in Miami. Romo's passing game won't be as effective as it could be because of it. Bailey misses 2 FG's. Sloppy game for both teams. Cowboys lead 14-10 late but D gives up another late TD. Fins pull this one out.....17-14

It's just not meant to be this year and even Romo's presence can't hide the weakness of the D.....

Dallas - 27
Miami - 14

Because it has been a very hard season and I feel that I deserve a comfortable two-score margin of victory.

My preference is a large enough lead that Tony can sit for the 4th quarter, but with this team, that is likely 3 TD lead with 2 minutes to play....

....just stay upright tony (and of course, win)

This team could be up by 40 and still play Tony, dont you remember against New Orleans when we got blown out Garrett saying the thought of pulling his starters never crossed his mind?

This team has too many issues beside just the loss of Romo. I hate to say it but I say Dolphins 20, Cowboys 17.
