Not surprised. I would not come here either to eventually be 3rd string when Romo returns. We are going to be lucky to find any QB to come here without a trade.

I have a feeling they have their eye on that waiver wire and don't want to mess with it.

I also hope they give Jameil Showers the entire game tonight so he can manage the game, not try to make quick impressions. Like Parcells did for Romo way back when.

According to Broaddus, the Cowboys aren't all that fond of Austin Davis. He even said that before they brought him in for a workout. I'm guessing they were just covering all their bases.

I tend to give this front office the benefit of the doubt when it comes to QB's

Dak not playing, so that leaves the Showers show barring the I- word.

It was already reported the Cowboys wanted him longer than tonight. If they just needed a guy for tonight's game, there are a ton of quarterback bodies available for that.

Who are we kidding? What available QB is going to make a difference if Dak gets injured or benched? And we only need one until "Bag o' Broken Bones" returns.

If I am Booger, I'd go get Tebow for the promotional value. The way he plays, it doesn't matter if he hasn't been here all along, he'll improvise. I don't know how much he'd want but getting him would give God a reason to start watching the Cowboys again. Booger, get Tim and open the roof!

I understand his thinking, but he's 27 and the best he will be able to hope for this season is a backup position somewhere and only team's with quarterback injuries would really consider him at this point of the season since we're a little over a week from the season starting. Even then, those teams would not likely keep him past this season either.

Now, if the Cowboys are low-balling him by not offering a multi-year contract or decent signing bonus, I could understand his lack of interest, but I doubt they are doing that given their desperate need for another quarterback.

Yeah, and he looked pretty stupid when they ended up bringing him in.

never believe anything you hear coming out of this organization....this is the same clown organization that stated it didn't want Foles before they were trying to sign him and reports coming out last week were the Cowboys weren't interested in Davis, now they're trying to sign him!!.....they want a QB to backup showers in case he's injured tonight and a Qb with some experience in the league that can grasp ten plays quickly is better than some raw rookie....I've stated it before, I doubt Dallas has any interest in Davis long term other than for tonight's game

That last part is the most likely scenario I can think of for not getting a deal done.
