News: Moore: Cowboys offense is indeed too Romo-friendly; Danny White explains what needs fixing

We were 3-0 before Irvin went down in Philly......also, had we drafted Moss instead of Ellis (and I was a big fan of Ellis), I think Aikman would have torn it up for his last years.

We'll never know. Sigh.

After all this talk, don't be surprised if we draft Bosa with both Lynch and Wenz on the board.

Jerry Jones will talk about how far Tony's come in his rehab ...

We'll go into 2016 with a ton of IFs and HOPEs. IF this, If that ... HOPE this, HOPE that ...

Hope is a plan at VR.

Moore: Cowboys offense is indeed too Romo-friendly; Danny White explains what needs fixing

Put a frog in boiling water and it will jump out.

Put that same frog in cold water and gradually turn up the heat, and it will sit in that pot until it boils to death.

Danny White cites this anecdote when giving his opinion on the Cowboys' plight in Tony Romo's absence.

"That has happened to this offense, I think, over the course of six or eight years,'' the former Cowboys quarterback said. "The thing that Tony does better than anyone in the league, in my opinion, is improvise. But it's become a crutch.

"It's become their offense.''

The phrase "Romo-friendly'' has become part of Cowboys vernacular in recent years. But in tailoring the offense to fit the skills of No. 9, have the Cowboys made it so specific that backups have little room to operate? Have coaches and players put so much faith in Romo's ability to bail them out that it has stripped this offense of the timing routes and blitz pickups that are essential tools of success for the majority of quarterbacks?

Owner Jerry Jones, executive vice president Stephen Jones and head coach Jason Garrett have discussed this topic in the wake of a 4-12 season. Those conversations continue.

These three, along with offensive coordinator Scott Linehan, must determine if the issue is the scheme or the players they have selected to fill-in behind Romo.

"Those are the things we'll be going over,'' Stephen Jones said...

Finally someone gets it.
My only other problem is that can JG change the offense to abide a new, young, fresh, talented QB from the draft or will he need another "improviser" like Tony to replace Tony to run his offense?[/quote]

Why was Danny never a coach in this league. Could you imagine ( purely hypothetical) if DW became a coach here. The guy who couldn't get to the big game some how comes back( as a coach) to get us to the big game. Not saying that would happen just that ot would be crazy if it did.
