If Brady can do it without an elite WR Why cant Tony?

Great QBs make offenses go more than great WRs. With that said we can't turn the ball over like we did 3 times and some of that was on Romo last night too. Particularly the one near the end of the half that was a horrible pass to Witten. If we don't have the 3 turnovers that led to 17 points Dallas wins last night comfortably.

I'm sure Romo can do it-but the more and more I watch Gronk, the more and more i'm convinced he is the second best football player in the league behind only JJ Watt.

That being said, the last time Romo was without a true WR1 Miles Austin lit it up-

Also even when Dez is here I still kinda think Witten is the number 1 receiver that Romo is looking for. He'll give Witten every chance to get open where as he'll only throw to Dez if the coverage is right.

If we continue to utilize all our weapons I think the Cowboys can survive for a month without Dez. This pretty much forces us to use Gavin more. We know how good he is in the red zone. Has the versatility to play on the outside and keeping Beasley in the slot. Like to see McFadden get more carries. Needs more than six to establish a rhythm. Part of that is not playing from behind. Beasley and Williams rebounded nicely after horrific first halves.

The run game has to be a little more effective than it was last night. Granted turning to over 3 times forced us into an attack we really didn't want to have. If we protect the ball well I don't see us missing Dez all that much. Gregory could be someone we miss a little more in fact.

This team still makes me nervous with the short passing attack. But to answer your question, they have the weapons to move the ball without Dez. They will simply miss his big play ability which leads to quicker scores

I would think they will get Lucky more involved in the game plan to add his speed and quickness to the mix.

The last 2 drives of the game were quick scores.
