Since 2013, when the temp is below 40°
70 of 103 734 yd 10 td 1 int 116.7
I wonder how many of those, if any, were played in a Dome?

He may be a fierce competitor but he also realizes time isn't on his side and he wants a shot at the Super Bowl. Crap teams are years away and need to build with a young QB. Romo is a short term answer for a real good team that's a QB away from competing for the Super Bowl.
Sure Tony would LIKE to compete for a SB if possible but the real issue is his precieved level of talent may be reduced by age and injury which I don't buy at all. Tony can play at a high level IMO and doesn't have to win a SB to prove it especially if Dak struggles which is likely. I like Dak alot but he will most likely never be a top ten guy although Dallas can win with him if the defense improves. The real issue is Tony wants to prove Jerry wrong. He can continue to play at a high level and I wouldn't put it passed him being able to elevate the level of play in Chicago. While I would rather see him end up in Houston or Denver Chicagos not the complete basement dweller their record indicated this season. With Tony it's not unreasonable to believe they could complete for the division.
Let's wrap this up.
If the Cowboys want to make a deal by the draft, they should trade Romo to whomever offers the best package whether that be the Texans, Jets, Bears, Texas Longhorns, Kansas City Royals.
Anyone who suggests that it is better for the franchise to just let him walk anywhere he wants in FA, even the Texans, has a screw loose.
No one is concerned about his talent, it's still there we saw that in his one series vs Philly in the season finale but it's the risk of injury that concerns everyone and knowing at 37 he's a short-term answer.
Yes the league is concerned about his precieved level of talent due to age and injury that's exactly why he is a short term answer. If he was 29 and no back injuries he would still be starting in Dallas. Romo needs to prove to Jerry to the world and himself that at 37 and with injury concern he is still a better option than Dak right now. His play over the next 2-3 years will decide if Dallas was right or wrong to move on from him. I hope Jerry gets burned. Not starting Romo in the playoffs was a huge mistake that the media refused to cover and it really pissed Romo off as it should have. Watch out Jerry Romo is pissed.

So if the best offer we get is a 5th round pick from Houston, you would take that and not consider it a slap in the face? We would be handing them the one piece they probably need to reach the SB. Who do you think would be getting the better end of the deal them or us? Imagine doing that and ending up losing to Houston in the SB and Jerry having to answer questions about giving Romo away to the Texans for a 5th round pick. I would much rather release him and have teams have to compete for him than to screw myself in a deal that could come back to haunt me. Apparently you just don't see that point.

It's not his "talent" they're concerned about because Romo can still play at a high level, the concern is the injuries he keeps suffering and the fact he'll be 37. All of that makes him a short-term answer. No one can look past next season with him. Of course if he was 29 with no injury concerns, he would still be starting or at worse competing with Dak in training camp for the starting job but he's 37 and can't stay healthy.
And it doesn't specifically say that he was playing in those conditions, while posting those stats. It says when below 40, which is not the same thing as saying playing in temps 40 degrees and under.
That's kinda the point right?
I took it as when he was playing in less than 40 degrees he posted those stats. why else post stats? guess we'll have to ask the poster.And it doesn't specifically say that he was playing in those conditions, while posting those stats.

I could be wrong but games in domes are not listed by their exterior temperature. It would be beyond moronic if they did.

If the options are:
Take a 5th round pick and see him play for the Texans
OR
Get nothing and watch him walk in FA to the Texans to any team?
The answer is easy. I take the pick over nothing.
The only person who doesn't see this is you. Because you are hung up on this bizarrely stupid concept of bad PR, fans being upset (which they wouldn't be), etc.
Your assuming he can't stay healthy which would appear logical but in reality it may not be fact. The only way to find out is to play him which Dallas chose not to do not based on talent mind you as you yourself suggest or who truly gave the team the best chance to win but based on ratings. The media down played the fact that Romo was and still is Dallas best chance to win in the short term. That was a serious slap in the face to Romo and Cowboy fans. When the game becomes more about revenue than precieved desire to complete at the highest level real fans get pissed as they should. Parcels would have played the best players regardless of ratings. Jerry and Stephen should burn for this slap in the face of the integrity of the game. Garrett is simply a weak sheep that diserves to look like the poor pathetic **** he is.
I wouldn't take a 5th round pick for Romo because we'll be getting the worst end of the trade by a long shot and Jerry isn't going to make a deal that benefits the other team more than it benefits the Cowboys. To trade Romo we may have to lower his contract to work out a trade and that's benefitting the other team. I would rather throw something in a river and have people dive in after it, then to hand it to someone in exchange for a piece of ****. Like I said we have a dilemma, we can't keep Romo because of his contract and he doesn't want to be a backup. Jerry is simply not going to gift wrap him over to another team unless we're getting something in exchange that's comparable to what we're giving up.
That would be some serious air conditioning.I wonder how many of those, if any, were played in a Dome?
