Jerry: Not ruled out Romo staying with Cowboys

[NorthwestDallas40]

First thing Jerry has said recently that leads me to believe he may be trying to leverage a trade, rather than a release...

This gets more interesting every day. I'd love to see Romo throwing to John Ross.

that ship has sailed and probably sunk too.

 

[CowboyStar88]

It wouldn't be a bad move at all

 

[NorthwestDallas40]

he's not staying. this is just to potentially drive a trade.

 

[Verdict]

LOL. Some of you are scared to death that Romo will stay and eventually win back his position.

Jerry: Not ruled out Romo staying with Cowboys

That is probably true.

 

[AzorAhai]

That is probably true.

As long as it's true enough that other teams think it can happen, that's what matters.

I doubt its ruled out either.

I'd guess his peferences are

1. Be able to compete as starter in Dallas (sounds like thats out)
2. Play for a strong contender elsewhere
3. Play for a good team with a decent line...but not as strong as 2
4. Stay in Dallas and backup Dak
5. Retire
6. Play for a crappy team

Maybe 3 and 4 can be flip-flopped

I think most of us just understand that the pros outweigh the cons on ending his tenure here.

Actually there are many that think that cutting Romo is better than him being a backup here. I vehemently oppose that thought process.

this team still belongs to jerry jones and if he wants tony to stay and can work it out and tony wants to stay he will regardless of what everyone else here things or wants

 

[Verdict]

No comprende.

If that is true then half the battle has already been fought to getting great compensatiin for Romo

I just don't see staying in Dallas and being a backup as a high priority of his.

I'm sure he's still got love for the organization, but there's probably a lot less reason to stay when he looks around the locker room and sees and entirely different locker room than before.

I could be wrong though. Not in his head, just probably how I would feel.

Tat is the one benefit we have. Jerry the GM doesn't have to explain to Jerry the owner why he is keeping a $14 million dollar backup

I don't get his ross romo thing. Romo won't be in Dallas and neither will ross

Funny how so many people think they know what's going to happen with Romo when not even Jerry knows yet. Despite the opinion of many, Romo is not made of glass. He's healthy and feels better than he has in several seasons. If given the opportunity he has a great chance of taking his starting job back from Dak.

Yeah...i had it 4th on the list and just ahead of nuclear options like retirement or playing in Cleveland.

Sounds like you might even move retirement up to 4 and backup to 5 or 6?

Could be. Only he knows for sure

I think on the surface it isn't a bad idea to have Romo as a back-up. His drive in Philly proved that he's still got some left in the tank.

But overall, he's a time bomb for a twisted media storyline that will ultimately end up being a distraction.
