If romo is "questionable" would you play him?

I would sit him, rely on Murray and call max protect for Weeden on obvious passing downs. Weeden under pressure is no bueno.

i play him if he wants to go.

and people need to quit crediting weeden so much like he's a superstar.

almost all of those 10 points were due to murray.

why the issue with Weeden? Sure Murray played a part he plays a part when Romo is in there as well. Fact is Weeden in limited snaps made some good throws including a TD to Witten. No doubt the starting QB of this team is Tony Romo and if he can go I'm sure he will.

if romo can protect himself and handle the pain you start him. if he is not starting then he is not going to be active so bringing him in off the bench makes no sence at all. if he is'nt healthy enough to start then he is'nt healthy enough to play. either he starts or he is inactive. it's silly to do anything else

No I would not. The Washington loss is a big one because it's a game we definitely could have won and it was a division game. We are now one game down in the NFCE and in the division. Arizona and Jax are important but they aren't nearly as important as the next 4 out of 6. We have the Giants, Philly twice and the season finale in Washington. That's where the season will be won or lost. We need Tony for those games, much more then we need him for these next two.

Those of you who are of the attitude that we need to stop treating Weeden like he's a decent QB better get right with the idea that he is a Cowboy and could possibly be the difference between a 3 game losing streak and an opportunity to split the next two, which could be the difference in us making the playoffs or sitting home.

You bench him until the bye. That will make us rely on the run and we eden didn't look to sloppy against the skins. Bryant should of caught both of those balls in the endzone.

No you don't, not for a bruised anything. If it has no relation to the surgery, you don't sit your starting QB in one of the biggest games of the year.

Sorry Weeden has an arm and can fit a ball in tight windows but his touch does not look that good. So in other words unless we run slants, hitches, outs and ins he will not be that good considering our receivers are geared towards, go, fades.

A deep bruise are different than just bruise. It really depends on how it responds to treatment you need to get all the blood out of the bruise area so that muscle can act normally.

I Know what it is, I played the game for a long time.

I expect Tony to play at 100%, unless we are being lied to and he tweaked it.

It's sad that our QB has to get hurt and we have to play the back up so we as fans hope the coaches will get back to what they built as this years identity.

There is no evidence Jerry told Garrett what to do last game. None. He told Garrett what the doctors and Romo were saying.

It's so frustrating how people will just repeat as fact something that is entirely untrue/unproven.

Garrett did say he was considering keeping Weeden in the game. I wonder what changed his mind.

No. We need him healthy for a different finish to this year compared to the others.

Weeded can get it done, IF the rest of the team also improves on their performance from the other night.

e.g. No turnovers, some blocking by special teams to spring Harris, better starting field position than from inside your 20, better punting , better tackling.....
