That is one pretentious username you have there.
Anyone who stopped and paid attention to the giddiness seen in Jerry Jones' eyes during the month of October 2016 should have known the quarterback torch had been passed in his mind. They should have also started then preparing themselves for an eventual huge franchise quarterback contract to come but I digress.
The team's long-term future had been decided. Romo knew it. Prescott earned his opportunity for 2017 and beyond. My only dissatisfaction is held against Jerry Jones and Jason Garrett deciding a rookie quarterback would do what no other rookie quarterback has ever done--help lead his team to a Super Bowl appearance or victory--when they had a capable, playoff experienced, veteran quarterback on the roster.
Super Bowl opportunities are fleeting. A Romo-led offense may have had a 0.01% chance of helping the team reach or win it all in the 2016 playoffs. It was and may well forever remain better odds in the NFL.
