I hate to concede victory

[TheEnigma]

When it comes right down to it, I hate to lose. And I hate to say it is okay to lose. And thats why it bothers me that I'm seeing all these posts saying its okay if we lose because we get to see if Romo is the future. Don't get me wrong, I supported Bledsoe when he was a starter, and I'll support Romo while he is our starter. I do kind of feel sorry for Bledsoe with all of this utter hatred towards him right now, but like Parcells says, you have to have thick skin to play quarterback in the league, and he should be able to handle it.

However, this is Romo's fourth year. He shouldn't be making as many mistakes as rookies do because he is not one. I'll excuse this past game because it was his first time seeing live action, but he needs to start showing something. I'm not going to accept losing. If we lose a game, I'm not going to feel better just because we are seeing if Romo is our future. He shouldn't need long to show us that and we should know by the end of the year.

I'm just going to ask that we don't start to excuse every mistake Romo makes, only to furthur blind us from reality. He may turn out to be a very good quarterback and he may not be, but be as critical as you would with anybody else starting back there. And I do not want to see anybody saying its okay to make mistakes, and its okay to lose, cause that is the mark of a loser. I've not given up hope on the Dallas Cowboys, and I will never concede a victory no matter how bad it looks.

I believe Zoners are just tired of watching Bledsoe pat the ball and take a sack!

Lets not forget that Romo was pressing trying to bring the Boys back. I would hope he makes fewer mistakes over the course of a regular game.

I'm with you and I think a lot of people do expect to win with Romo in there. Everyone calling for Romo was calling for him because they believe he gives us a better chance at winning. What I think everyone is saying though, is that if he doesn't give us the best chance of winning, atleast we'll be able to find out now instead of wasting another year only to find out later he wasn't the answer. I don't think that many people will be making excuses for him. If he plays well over these last 10 games, he's our guy for next year. If not, it's time to dip into the FA pool and/or the draft for our guy.

I tend to agree. I think with a week of him taking the lions share of the snaps in practice and starting the game fresh he will come out and do some good things. We'll win come Sunday. You watch.

I couldn't agree more. I'm pissed that we lost because I believe Romo gives us a better chance to win games now. I do get a little satisfaction from the fact that we didn't lose with a 14 year vet.
