Sage advice.....or not?

He made the most valid point of all.

If Romo was healthy, which is a big if, the Cowboys would be 11-2 or better.

Big "assumption"...especially "assuming" Romo would play all 13 games.

You knew it was just waiting in the wings.

What's important is that we get high quality QB play. It matters a lot less where it comes from. To-date, the differences between Dak and Tony have been, incredibly, somehow inconsequential this season. The potential for schism has more downside now than any possible differential between the play of the QBs. I still think (for now) Tony is probably the better player, but now that it's Dak's job, there's no way I contemplate a switch.

Sounds like a idiot to me.

If they make the change I think it will be obvious they had to do it and there will be no problems in the locker room.

Sort of when they decided Tony was the backup, it was a tough choice but ultimately the logical one.

You don't get the show.

He said "if healthy" and if that was the case, I do think our record would be as good, or better. I don't think there is a chance a healthy Romo loses to the Giants twice.

Romo was the clear cut best QB on the roster the day he went down. We are fortunate that we had a great supporting cast around Dak and that he has played very well considering everything. That doesn't mean that Romo isn't the better option for this team right now.

I am willing to see Dak with another start, but he can't continue to be a mediocre QB. He was bad this past game. He has been up and down in several prior games.

Of course...he differs in his opinion on which quarterback should be starting so he's an idiot. Typical argument from those who don't have one. Or do you truly believe Dak Prescott is better than a healthy Tony Romo?

 

[Carson]

Easy to make that decision on a show compared to real life

 

[Joe Realist]

If he was coach. Something tells me he was not a coach, a player, or anything else.

 

[Jstopper]

lol bull****.

Nothing bull about it.

Does he also survive the hits Prescott has taken, or run for the yards and rushing tds that Prescott has?

Lebatard is the biggest clown in America

Hated him for 18 years

Hes a numbers guy all the way

In the early 00's he was asking journalists why does Irvin get more respect then Keyshawn when their numbers are the same.

He picked the Lions to win 10 games, the didn't win any that year

Tried to make the argument with basketball experts that Josh Smith was as good as Scottie Pippen(or Scottie was no better than Josh Smith)because they had similar career numbers. Smith would later become a bench player in Houston before washing out and now plays in Russia

He thinks coaches are worthless but went on and on about how great Steve Spurrier was going to be in Washington

Yearned for Gronkowski to shoot a porn scene

This is only the crap I remember. Will add more upon recall

I hate the man!!

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

The problem is "the better qb" RIGHT NOW cannot simply be measured by past stats... It goes so much deeper...

Great take.
