As they are all saying around the country..

no way do we beat them at Lambeau.

So..

does that mean we have nothing to lose..

and we can just pull out all the stops..

and play like a bunch of crazed wolves?

Or does it mean we go in trying not to lose..

and go ultra conservative and hope for it?

How are we playing this game?

And what will be the turning point?

One thing I know for sure..

At least we don'the have to worry about DAK choking against the Packers like Romo has in 2014 and Brett Favre in 2010 when he played Minnesota in the playoffs.

Romo seems to have a mental block when it came to his hero Favre in Green and Gold and now Rodgers, too.

Thoughts.?

There's an old axiom that it's best to play aggressively on the road if you expect to win, so the notion that we might "pull out all the stops" shouldn't actually be considered too far fetched. Nevertheless, Las Vegas has us as mere 4-point underdogs, which really shouldn't render a victory as an unattainable goal for us to achieve with a mistake-free effort. This team is on the upswing and seems immensely energized by the performances of our two highly esteemed rookies on offense. Anything can and very well might happen. I think winning is anything but hopeless (but that's just me.)

Maybe they'll let Dak open up the entire Romo playbook?

I'm really tired of hearing this. Please let Dak play with a full deck.

If Daks playbook is so simple why haven't teams figured it out? Makes no sense. They aren't introducing a new offense to the league like the read option in 2012.
Because this rhetoric from the Romo faithful is garbage.

The Romo playbook is him killing the play called and then providing his Improv.

What we are most likely seeing with Dak is executing the actual plays called.

Finally after all of these years we are seeing Garrett's offense in full action.

Who's missing the Kill Kill Kill last second mahem at the LOS ?

Still happens. You haven't heard Dak doing it? I hear it more and more each game that goes by.
Not nearly as much and we don't look as in disarray .

Is it possible that the Romo offense was basically an offense of Improv at the LOS and we are actually seeing more of the Garrett called offense with Dak?

We're not favored. What's new? We go into Green Bay and pull another one out. It might not be easy but who cares? Green Bay is the next unbeatable team on our schedule. So let's beat 'em. Good times come Sunday night.

The only way to have a real QB controversy is for Dak to win in Green Bay and for Dak to have another great game. By real l mean the coaches and gm see all the momentum and excellent play as a reason to debate bringing back Tony before Philly. Then if he wins against Philly it gets even more complicated for them.

Still. It's a good problem.

We would have expected Tony to win in Green Bay too?

It's a good problem for everyone but Romo if he's ready to come back in. And it's a problem for Jerry if Romo gets booed off the field .

I truly hope they brig Romo back . Let's see what we're missing and put this controversy to bed once and for all.

This whole situation is very confusing for me. The momentum is real and maybe the team feels it. On the other hand Tony is, what, 3rd all time in passer rating ? I've only said that like a thousand times to various Romo haters.

I just don't know but, I'm ok with us having this problem. It'll work itself out.

I hope

I want what provides us our best chance to win. I'm always nervous about messing with chemistry and momentum .

My concern is the Romo faithful and Jerry might be wearing rose colored glasses . Thats why I welcome Romo's return. Let it be decided on the field as it should be.

Good that we are the underdog ! Being discounted is a big mistake by football world ! the train is coming to lambeau Sunday this will be a statement game ! EE goes for 145 yards and 1 score tweets will be abound of did you see what the boys did to the pack.

After Sunday we will no longer be considered underdogs or pretenders!
