Do you think Wade should bench Romo if push came to shove?

Well if he is that bad why is Kitna even on the team? Backup is supposed to mean you are good enough to step in when needed.

Because he is a serious upgrade from what we had last season.

Guys, this whole debate is a moot point. Does anybody think Wade actually has the authority or power to bench Romo???

Yea, right.

We all saw last year Romo wave off the punt team and go for it with Wade just stading there with a W T F look on his face. Romo is untouchable until Jerry starts to crticize him, that is who has the authority around here to bench players.

You guys thinking Wade can bench Romo is laughable.:laugh2:

Sportswriter Jean-Jacques Taylor said NEVER on ESPN first take this morning and I couldn't understand why because as a coach why would stick with a QB who is not getting the job done? I mean if Romo comes throws 2 int's in the 1st Qtr and then 2 more in the 2nd qtr, Wade is not supposed to turn to Jon Kitna?

If it came to that, Romo and Jerra would just overrule Wade and Wade would shrug and go back to his big lunch.

My thoughts exactly. I fear we will never sniff another title as long as Jerry controls everything.

Early in a season, IF Romo made another pick (throws one up, or does a pattented impulse/gunslinger throw) that ends up costing us the game.....

Well maybe you sit Romo down 1 game to send him the message that things have to change. It is a serious call. You don't do it for a long stretch, you do the attention setting, take a game off, you are being punished for this one specific fault in your game. It is a "wake up call" to say that long-term this can't be tolerated consistently any more as this team will never win in the playoffs under the same circumstances.

Romo is the future of the Cowboys, whether we want it or not (I, for one, want it). We won't likely "give up" on him after this season as our window with Oline and a few other players isn't big enough to bring in another QB and win in the shorter term years. But if Romo doesn't show the ability to limit the bad picks, I can see a QB being drafted high in a couple of years to be groomed to take over. Maybe not 2010 draft, but 2011.

I think Romo has a minimum of 2 years chance to get it done still. I think he will do it. Benching a player for 1 game is part of the NFL though, and if that is the only way to get it into a thick head, that something has to improve, I can see the benefit versus the 1 game harm. Kitna should be able to win a game here or there, and is considered one of the best backup QB's in NFL. It isn't like we'd be throwing in a rookie or scrub player while sending a message to Romo.

Thank you....

if wade benches romo, I am pretty sure jerry will be benching wade shortly after.

In this case, please bench Romo immediately. I want to see jellyfish Wade unemployed so badly that it hurts in my shorts.

When needed is the key word. Romo's name isn't on any injury report right now.

I trust Kitna to step up if Romo is out a game or two, but hes not better than Romo if Romo is healthy. I don't care that Romo had one bad game, a lot of quarterbacks do. Now if Romo's had a couple bad games in a row, maybe we can start talking, but Romo is better than Kitna is, and ever was.
