With the signing of Hardy and the contract of Romo(his health), we have these next two years to send Romo into the sunset.

I wouldn't say never. We have managed to strengthen the roster, but not jeopardize our future capabilities. After Romo's hit this year, we have like 30-40 million in cap space next year (notwithstanding a deal to Bryant and maybe Hardy). In other words, we'll see in 2015 if we can repeat the success of 2014, but still have the ability to continue strengthening the team in the forseeable future either way.

It's now or never for Romo, but this team is in great shape to be good for a while with this o-line if we draft a great QB. & we are going to build a d@mn good d-line

It's true, Romo has only maybe 2 good more years left. If that.

We need to secure Bryant. Upgrade the secondary, and make sure guys like MO if he stays, does not see the field. Upgrade our #2 WR, because lets face it, if Bryant is locked up in double coverage, we really don't have a reliable guy to get open.

We also need to add a few little more pieces to the front 7. Overall we should be good. We just need to add another reliable WR.

For once, I would like for someone... anyone... to pick for me five correct white balls and one correct red ball. Is that so much to ask???

Where is all this talk of the demise of Romo coming from? By all accounts he is the healthiest he has been in years. He has the best offensive line in football protecting him now.

I think Romo has four high level years left.

On it boss. As of this moment I have succeeded in creating a device that will gather all of this entire board's collective prognosticative energies and I shall use that to focus on your... balls like you asked.

Nope. This board hasn't the sufficient power to do it.
I tried.

I think Romos window is 1-3 years.

Long term 3-5 years, But I doubt we see Romo playing in 4 years.....Thats a lifetime in the NFL. But, who knows?

I would plan on the next 1-3 years to make a push for a Super Bowl.

Yes, this team is still going to have a lot to offer after he is gone. But, have you seen the QBs in this league lately....There aren't too many good ones. And without a good one, I don't think you make any noise. Regardless of how good you are in other places....

I have been saying this for a few years now, but most dismiss this thought, and I am not sure why,

Lets draft one, this year. 1 or 2. Lets start grooming him right now. And by the time he gets his turn to start, hopefully,he doesn't have that deer in headlights look on his face.....

If we go to FA, we will pay dearly.....And then you have wrapped everything up into a FA. yuck; So, Ill say it again, this year. Lets draft a QB.

Not really, I don't follow college ball, and I am not a draftnik. If that's the case and there is absolutely no one that can be a QB in this draft, that would fall into the 2nd or 3rd 4th rounds, then next year.

I guess my point is, it is coming. Maybe that guy is Vaughn?? I like what GB did with Rodgers.....

that paid off, huh?

Romo is going into this off season better than he has been that last 2 or 3 years. And with the team in better shape too in those same years.
But yet there are those calling for his demise. Brady is how much older, but yet people act as if he's in his 20's. But, can't do anything to change those opinions, so won't try. Just post a different opinion at times.
