Per KFFL.

I don't know what to think.

Jerry started off the day by saying Romo was likely starting.

Then Mickey Spagnola said Romo was wearing more intrusive protection on his hand today than he was yesterday, and that he expects Brad to start.

Wade said Romo is a "bonus guy" and the team is preparing for Brad. Now this.

Seems to be only Jerry and Tony want/expect Tony to start Sunday.

Like I said-it's only 2-3 games...a seasoned vet like Brad will be OK. I'm not too thrilled with him, but it's not like he has the starting job the remainder of the season.

OTOH-if our backup was a rookie, THEN I would be nervous.

Just because BSPN is reporting what we already know is subterfuge and/or Jerry leaving the reservation doesn't mean Tony won't start.

Actually, they are... they've got the room next door to mine reserved...

You 'n me, we'll just TERRORIZE the staff... just don't mess with Nurse Ratchit, she don't play... and for God's sake, stay away from the green jello...

We'll talk more when they let you out of the restraints... I was only in them for like a week, maybe ten days... :D

Well I don't see how Brad wouldn't start consider how safe Wade plays it with injuries I didn't want Romo to start anyways to much to lose from messing up the pinky even more.

If true than its good news guys. Brad is a guy thats capable of winning you a couple of games. hes an ok backup, and wont have stupid turnovers. (right brad?)

plus I get sum scary chillz when I imagine a D lineman charging Romo from behind, causing a fumble and smacking the living hell of out his pinky.

nOoOoOoO!! :eek:

Smart move is to start Brad and see how he does in the first Half. And if we have a good lead just keep him in there. Maybe at the end of the game give Tony a few snaps to see how he does.

Thak the good Lord. Starting Romo would be a mistake. I think Johnson will be a calming influence on this team right now.

The Cowboys would be stupid to even play Romo. Sit him and get him healthy, we don't need to be 14-2 to make the playoffs.

Could not have said it better myself. If this team can't beat the Rams because of Brad being under center, then we should cut him right now. I for one thinks he is up to the job.

Let's go Brad! Let's go Boys!!

I have confidence that Brad can play for a 1 week or 2 and hold down the fort. Let Romo heal.

Well alrighty then. Come on down with those 164TD's, 117 picks, 243 sacks, 63 fumbles(26 lost) in 122 games starting at QB.

And all I hear around where I live is that we will be better off with Johnson he has won a ring, blah, blah, blah. He makes better decisions blah, blah, blah. Well those stats don't make me feel any better with him behind center. But he has a ring so we will be fine.....:pray:

Get well Tony we going to need you.
