Using Houstonian favorite fat man John McClain to run a bad information is just so......Houston. This is why that armpit is shunned by the rest of the great state of Texas.
Nevertheless, this is an interesting stare down going on between Denver, Houston, and the Cowboys.
It's as if both Denver and Houston feel like they're in the catbird seat here, so they can just wait this out. Obviously, both can't be. Or, perhaps Denver is more comfortable with their current QB situation and is just willing to let it play out.
Houston has to feel like they are Romo's preference, or they wouldn't be twiddling their thumbs here. Tom Savage is a bucket of puke, and they're too good to waste a season with his incompetence at the helm.
What Jerry needs to be doing is selling Romo on the idea of Jacksonville. Get them in the fray, and stuff will start to happen.
I suspect both Houston and Denver have told Romo not to sign anything without calling them first. But that's when they thought he was going to be released outright. Perhaps they made a gentlemen's agreement not to offer Jerry anything and just go mano-a-mano in a contract offer battle after the eventual release.
That's why this thing needs a third player bad. Jacksonville, Kansas City, Buffalo, somebody.
The draft is coming, as are minicamps and OTAs, etc. Romo needs to be in his new place by then for his sake and his new team's. A post-June 1st signing isn't ideal for the team that gets him. Having Romo or not affects draft decisions, offensive gameplanning, and other free agency decisions.
Jerry still holds a pretty good hand here, but I think this is going to take weeks. And that's just fine.
Dallas isn't sweating. This isn't that impactful for the Cowboys next season no matter how long they wait. It's Houston that is in a pinch, and Denver to a lesser extent. Bill O'Brien's job might be on the line, and I'm sure he's fed up with the crap he's being fed at quarterback.
O'Brien LOVES Tony Romo's game. I've heard him say it. I'd bet he's f-bombing those facilities in constant rapid fire. He's going to implode if he has to play Tom **** Savage next season. Might as well run the Wishbone.
Just wait them out. The Cowboys have 80 days worth of patience. Do they?
