I understood the notion of riding with Dak because of how well the TEAM was playing overall and how the TEAM was winning. Romo understood it, the Front Office understood it obviously, as well. I didn't necessarily agree with it, but we are winning so it's all good.
I'll just say this. Everybody knows rookies hit a wall. There is a reason no rookie QB has ever led his team to a Championship. We've seen rookies at the position start out well in the past and then struggle. Some struggled for the rest of their careers and others went on to indeed win Championships. If Dak goes out there the next two ballgames and struggles then I think we have to go back to Romo.
And that doesn't mean that I think Dak won't have success in his career in Dallas or that I think he is hot garbage. Some of the posters here think that we should stick with him no matter what, let him take his lumps this year so he can learn, and hope that it makes everything better for the future, regardless if it affects this season. That's ridiculous. Dak will be just fine either way. He's young, is mature beyond his years, and has everything in front of him.
He might have a bounce back game against Tampa Bay and start having this team ball again and make history. You never know what will happen. But to discount the fact that we have Tony Romo ready to go, a player who hasn't been perfect but is a straight baller when he is on, is crazy.
Here is a newsflash. Tony and Dak play for the same team. If Tony can be benched for Dak, Dak can sure as hell be benched for Tony. And if things do work out and we win the big one in that scenario, they both get rings.
