Don't hurt the Romo faithfuls feelings...they cant take it. Where are they btw?

Im right here. I see Dak scored 1 touchdown and beat the number 1 team in the NFL the Chicago Bears....

Good God.... Tony never got any respect, and well why change that now. Most unappreciated QB to ever wear the star

Momentarily, yes... but, he'll be ushered right back into the starting line up just as soon as Romo inevitably goes down again.
Thanks for the prediction, Nostradamus. When you get the Powerball numbers in, go ahead and post them here.

Aikman just said there's now way they dont start Romo when he's healthy.
Then,he Romo plays poorly over the course of more than a game or two, then Dak goes in.

Click your heels together 3 times and maybe it will come true for you.

Forgive me for using inductive reasoning to spot the obvious. You call it wishful thinking, I call it a 36 year old quarterback with a chronic back issue that hasn't been on the field since the first few games of 2015. It's not a knock on Romo. To me he's every bit as deserving of the same respect that the likes of Aikman and Staubach receive for his contribution to the franchise and the game of football, but his time has passed. It may not come sooner than later necessarily, but he's certainly in the waning hours of his career. Enjoy it while it lasts.

Tony's the better player. He also deserves the job back this season in case of a tie, given all he's given the organization. Though Dak's making it a surprisingly more interesting question than I honestly ever thought he could this season.

Already, I found myself checking to see if maybe we consider sitting Tony for that first PHI game, and start him against the Browns instead. Let the fans have their Wentz v. Dak playoff, avoid the risk of further injury to Tony against that Eagles defense, and give him a patsy to warm up against his first game back. At this point, and I"m assuming Tony's body is able to play the week after the bye, I actually prefer sitting him another week and not giving him the game back with two weeks to prepare. That right there is a huge shift from where I was at the end of training camp.

These next 3 games are going to be very telling. I expect Dak (and the team as a whole) to look good in SF. Those next 2 games after that are going to be the key in determining the conclusion of this QB question.

If Dak somehow continues to progress at the rate he has been, it's going to be very very hard to take him out of the lineup.

It may be hard for some of the fans, but I don't know how many different ways they can say it's Tony's team. He's coming back.

Not going to be hard at all. Jerry comes by Garrett's office and says Tony plays and Garrett says "right on", it's a process.
This is Jerry's team, he bought it, he owns it. He makes the rules and at least for this year Tony is his QB. End of story!

Sometimes it's better to just use common sense.

The starting QB position is at least a discussion at this point, especially if Dak continues to progress at the current rate.

And if you're going to go the route of quoting tweets and what not, I'm pretty sure you can find a quote from Jerry that contradicts the one you posted.

Yes, very astute comparing a decade's worth of accumulated stats to a rookie's first TD. I guess Tony shouldn't have replaced Bledsoe, since you know, Bledsoe had more TD's than him at the time. You are illogical and evaluate on emotions. Good for you.

Again...physically capable. Bledsoe was injured and couldn't come back. Tony is coming back. Keep up.

Of course not. Its a lock.
Everyone is on the same page from the coaches to the players and even to Dak.
Dak knows he has a very long (barring bad health luck) career ahead of him and hes just getting started.
His time is near, one way or the other.
Romo will start when healthy and they go from there.

LOL

Bro I'm not going to search the Internet for it just so you can see it. You can think I'm full it if you want. Doesn't really bother me.

I can't recall the exact way Jerry babbled and fumbled through the words, but he basically didn't rule out the possibility of Dak never giving the job back.

Regardless, it's obviously worth discussion at this point. Hence this thread and the number of replies in it.

Exactly what I thought.
