I know you love Dak, but that’s what makes me rue last season, because Romo could have had a small run with that MVP.

By small run you mean a couple of quarters? Romo hadn't finished two consecutive games without an injury since the 2014 season.

There was no real choice in the Dak/Romo situation - Romo's broken down body had already made its choice. It was going to go no further. We would have been left with the current situation we have with Sean Lee and the defense with Romo and the offense.

5-4 this season yes, and that team your referring to was not going to win a SB regardless of the robbery

You mean teams are stacking 8 and 9 in the box with Romo our there and Zeke in the backfield, like they are doing with Dak? Philly didn’t even do that last year for Romo coming off his injury with ‘bad back’ in the same game with Dak..

Your basically saying Dak would win more games than Romo while saying in your last post you have no idea..

We did, because we found Dak. And if Romo got injured, guess what? Dak is right back in the game..

Not sure what u mean here but, my point is and has been throughout this thread and other threads throughout the forum regarding Romo, with this coaching staff in place this team would not be a SB contender with or without Romo. Idc how other defenses are stacking 8 or 9. Idc if Zeke was in there or not. This team would most likely be 5-4 or 5-3 (giving Romo the Rams) with Romo as the QB. Period

“ They loaded up the box with eight and nine defenders to stop the run and force Prescott to beat them.”

If you think Dak’s success wasn’t predicated on Zeke last year:

https://www.___GET_REAL_URL___/s/www.fanragsports.com/ezekiel-elliott-fare-stacked-boxes/amp/

“During the DeMarco Murray era in Dallas, the team often found it difficult to run on first down. Whether it was because teams knew the Cowboys’ tendencies to run the ball on the first down or teams stacking the ball, they just couldn’t find consistent success.“

Yeah, keep telling yourself Romo wouldn’t have had more success without Zeke..

Dude no need to give me articles written a month ago. My opinion still stands. Dak had some pretty good games after this article was written. So teams just stopped stacking the box then? Let it go, I love Romo but the guy gave us one playoff win in ten years. We saw all of the talent this team has to offer today. The defense can’t respond when one guy is down and offense can’t cant respond when one guy is down (Tyron). COACHING is the issue with this team. It was i the Romo era and it is now.

Oh, you mean Dak playing better wasn’t because Zeke started running better.. and teams in order to stop Zeke from running better stopped stacking the boxes.. OK..

Sure Zeke or it could been Alford or McFadden whoever. The offense was balanced those games sure. What is your point?

Alfred and McFadden, like this game right... and those games with McFadden not even wearing his uniform, while chilling in the sidelines, Morris carrying to ball a couple times a game along with Smith..

OK..

With this poor offensive play no. Neither would Zeke though

Because poor offensive play is not dictated by the guy that runs better and teams stack 8 and 9 in the box to stop... ok...

People want to scoff at Zeke but he is the MVP folks.

Wouldn't surprise me if we don't win another until he returns.

Again, Zeke for the year is averaging 4.1 ypc. He wasn't playing like an MVP for the total games

Smh......he's our MVP. Everything we do revolves around him. If you can't see that you're fooling yourself.

Point is, they would have stopped him and he would not have made a difference in this game. You if you are trying to say what I think u trying to say let’s talk about it then. Dak could not carry this team to a win like Romo would have been able to this game and all of the other games that we lost this year. We would be 9-0 if Romo was healthy. Is that what you trying to say?

You said Dak would have a better record that Romo, if Romo had Zeke and this OL..

No I never said that, I said Romo would not change the fact this team isn’t going anywhere. Never said Dak would have a better record then Romo. Please find where I said that.

There is nothing to look forward to with owner and coaching staff. I know Jerry wants to win, but I believe he wants to win for himself. He wants all the glory. He is no GM, he is no coach. But he believes that he is the smartest man in pro football. He is wrong.

OK, my bad you said 5-4 or 5-3 with Romo period..

This team is way better than a lot of the trash Romo played with all his time here. Dak tonight still had 4 out of 5 starting linemen..

Get Garrett off of the field and into the front office. He's not a head coach. I like the draft decisions overall under Garrett though, so put him in the FO where he can maximize his talents.
