I miss those low scoring games where the Cowboys used to lose at the last minute. His grind it out football with no RB was a real genius idea.

And no FG kicker.

I had forgotten about ALL those losses.

The good old days, when we had Chan Gaileys record and no playoff wins!

You guys so lower your standards in order to boost the Jersey con man's time in Dallas.

Hey he entertained us! But didn't you rip Jerry over a statement about being entertained?

Yea. Took a Quincy Carter Team to the playoffs coming off 3 x 6-10 years. What a con

You never seen or heard of a fluke?

Did he win a championship? Isn't it all about the championship with the Cowboys?

The one thing I miss are the Tuna pressers, the Thermidor Lobster wisecrack was a Hall Of Fame material by itself.

I'm happy he wanted ware instead of the steroid user
He did want the steroid user:laugh:. Bryan Broaddus has told the story numerous times, it was Jerry who decided on Ware and Parcells was pissed. He said Bill looked like a spoiled brat in the war room after being overruled.

I know about half of you are ready to give up on him because of injury and this is Dak's week but I still believe Romo is the guy to take this team to the promise land.




Back to 2011? That's what it's come to?

I don't mean to sound insensitive and apologies if I do, but this mentality is everything that's wrong with this team. Nostalgia is great, but you can't go back.

Romo has been a great quarterback for this team for a long time, but you can't go back.

This team has let him down and wasted the prime years of his career with failure around him, but you can't go back.

It would be great if he was young enough and healthy enough to continue to lead this team, but you can't go back.

The best thing that this organization can do is to look forward, not back.

If Dak can lead this team to two deep playoff runs he already accomplished more than Tony. If you can do 4 playoff berths than he is tied with him. I think Romo broke too many of Parcells rules. That is why his Era is ending without success but stats.

And Garrett added to that. It's not coincidental that when Romo and Garrett were pass happy that this team was mired in 8-8 mediocrity and that once they focused more on balance and the running game, they had a 12-4 season. Even they acknowledge that by continuing to point to that success as their current blueprint.

Any appreciation for how he took a team that went 5-11 three years in a row to the playoffs with Quincy Carter playing quarterback?

As far as guys he brought in... Jason Witten was a pretty good pick.
Also, Keyshawn Johnson, Terry Glenn, Jason Ferguson, Richie Anderson... and even though they weren't very good QBs Testaverde and Bledsoe weren't the worst in the league and most importantly, gave Romo time to develop.

If not for Parcells bringing in Sean Payton, Romo would never have been here.

Compare it to Garrett. And then realize you need to shut up.
