If the Egirls can coax Josh McCown, 40, back, can we not pursue Romo?

[PAPPYDOG]

One last point.

Romo hasn’t trained or practiced in over two years.

He hasn’t played a meaningful game in 3 years.

How come All of the best QB’s spend all off-season training, practicing, throwing to receivers, going to QB camps?

Do they just do all that stuff for the heck of it? To kill time? Or does it take all that preparation and practice to keep playing at a high level?

To think Any QB could just come back after years off with no training or practice, and just lace them up and lead a team on a super bowl run, quite frankly is just silly nonsense.

Romo could come back with 1 eye,drunk, and holding a golf club in his left hand and still out throw Dak......

I really hope some of you are as young as you post.

We all want to see the Cowboys win more, but it's like a room full of kids who are mad Uncle Jerry didn't get them what they wanted for Xmas.

 

[BigCatMonaco]

Yeah, the Egirls are getting McCowen back as backup QB!

I say go on bended knee to Romo, get him back temporarily from broadcasting, give Romo $28 mil a year for two years.
And tell Dak to play out his contract.

I was no fan of Romo, but, boy howdy! I miss the accurate long ball!!!!

You’re completely ignoring be fact that on passes of 20 and 30 plus yards daks is consistently in the top 10 in every statistic

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

Romo could come back with 1 eye,drunk, and holding a golf club in his left hand and still out throw Dak......

And yet he still lost his job because he couldn't stay healthy. What imbeciles like you fail to realize that it doesn't matter how big of an arm you have if you are hurt and on the bench because of it.

 

[HungryLion]

"Silly nonsense" is redundant.
Nonsense is going into the season with only a midrange passing game.
Dak might be able to throw long, but where is the accuracy?
Silly nonsense is us having only a midrange passing game in which the opposing safeties play tight and blitz us crazy.
Silly nonsense, is our primo WR playing only 10 steps beyond the LOS because Dak has a limited range.

Who cares if it’s redundant or not? It’s an accurate description for wanting to bring a QB back who hasn’t played in two years.

But since you can’t argue against the accurate point about Romo being in no way shape or form ready to play and lead a super bowl run, you thought it best to complain about my choice of grammar.

A bunch of your points are also just plain inaccurate.

It’s fine if you want to bring in a better back up or even move on from Dak.

Romo isn’t the answer. He is retired. He isn’t ready to play and probably wouldn’t be willing to anyway. It’s not a reasonable idea.

These numbers show the following when Dak throws the ball 20+ yards:

Top-10 in pass yards per attempt.
7th in touchdowns (7), pass TD% (13.0), and interceptions (2).
6th in rating (107.6)


Is 20+ yards not deep enough for you? Good thing that Sturm also has the stats for 30+ yards, too!

From 30+ yards, Dak Prescott’s stats now look like the following:

5th in touchdowns (4).
7th in pass TD% (14.3).
1st in interceptions (0).
2nd in rating (118.8).

Yeah why have a serious discussion about the QB play when you can just throw stupid hyperbole like that out there?

 

[Blake]

Not your best work lad.

 

[GenoT]

1. Who said backup?
2. What is Tony's injury?
3. Who said pay Romo $10 mil?
4. Who is "us"?
5. Yo! Why you mad, bro?

 

[The Quest for Six]

Yeah, the Egirls are getting McCowen back as backup QB!

I say go on bended knee to Romo, get him back temporarily from broadcasting, give Romo $28 mil a year for two years.

You need a timeout!!

You are talking apples to tuna fish. Not remotely the same.

 

[Oh_Canada]

You will miss seeing a QB throwing to a Cowboys player as well if you bring back TR.

 

[Joe Realist]

Good move for Eagles. No to Romo

 

[PAPPYDOG]

Yeah why have a serious discussion about the QB play when you can just throw stupid hyperbole like that out there?

When you have fans trying to sell Dak as a franchise QB I mean common man how serious can you get with this conversation.
Might as well have a realistic LOL and move on as life is precious.....

I thought I saw that this thread was very very very justifiably removed yesterday.

And once Romo lands on IR after 1-2 games, how is our situation any different than it is now? Outside the obvious lack of $28 million...

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

And we never had dubious corpses or this personal rights crap! Rot, I say!
Sod!
There, you incited me.
Carry on!

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

I don't want Wentz to go down by any means, but if it happened and Romo stepped in to beat the Cowboys twice like Favre against the Packers in '09..... EPIC!

I can see MET CINAPLEX WRITTEN ALL OVER IT!!!
Harry Sanders can do the music. Soft focus, slow closeup of Romo's face: "It was storybook. Majestic" he says with a grin. Fade out to a ghost image of autumn leaves and a broadcast booth!
"Wilson, where the music" oh the many sides of Tony Romo.

Pappy will be along presently to move the goalposts.

Dak has yet to receive franchise QB dollars. Also the GM and owner of the franchise has made this claim - what fans have to say means absolutely nothing. But hey, why look at any of that when you can get your sick thrills hating on a guy who has done nothing but actually help the franchise in every way he has been asked.
