and neither am I.

It starts now fellas.

I dont know about you but im sick of waiting on a Quarterback.

Bledsoe you did your best but it just wasn't good enough. Like BP said today you always went for the big play instead of sometimes just taking what was there.

That being said im sold on Romo.

The reason im sold on Romo is because I heard it BP's voice today.

Throw out the fact that he wasn't even drafted. Parcells likes the kid and thinks he can play.

Parcells said when he first got here that all he needed was a bus driver. Today he said I think Tony can be a lot more than a bus driver.

He's got confidence in this guy. This is the same Parcells that wouldn't sit Vinny when the season was done.

Trust me if Parcells didn't think he was a player he wouldn't play and that is a fact.

This isn't no QC, Hutch, or Henson debate.

This is a Quarterback who Parcells believes has the skills to not only be a good Quarterback but a great Quarterback.

He spoke today how he thought Tony Romo was a very smart guy, had a quick release on the ball, and how he was mobile.

When Tony Romo 1st arrived I was one of those idiots calling for him to be cut after his 1st couple of seasons in the preseason.

I was one of those idiots who thought there was no way he would be able to beat out Henson after what we saw from Henson in Europe.

I was the idiot who actually rooted for him to do bad in the preseason so Henson could get more reps.

People im done being the idiot when it comes to this guy.

Everytime you try to count this guy out he finds a way.

His Teammates love him. Rivera was telling the media how much the guy reminds him of Favre in the huddle.

We are 3-3 with the biggest game of the season coming up this Sunday.

So if you trust in Bill and understand how great of a coach he is you will trust his decision with Romo.

Parcells isn't ready to ride off in no hearses.....

Let the GUN SLINGING begin.

It was great to hear that BP made this move because he honestly believed it might turn the season around and not just to mail in the season. I agree that you hear in him a hope that Romo can be something. But like he says, he doesn't know and neither do any of us. It will be exciting to watch to find out!

For Dallas to get things going it is going to be more than just the QB, there are things that need to get corrected and it was not all just the QB spot. Defense can't continue giving up big plays and even though Romo is more mobile does not change the fact the line play must get better

He said that a lot of those plays the QB knew which guy was going to be unblocked and Bledsoe just set there and took it.

The oline wasn't always messing up when some of those guys came in unblocked. Bledsoe knew who the unblocked man would be but just wouldn't get rid of the ball.

We will find out Sunday if Parcells plan to protect this guy will work but I fully expect to see a lot of things different in our protection schemes.

Parcells basically blamed a lot of those sacks on Drew.

Yep. I was surprised he stuck up for the O line like he did. But remember, most of these guys are "Parcells Guys". It does give you another perspective.

But Bledsoe is one of the biggest Parcells guys there is.

Parcells wouldn't throw his boy under the bus like that unless it was so bad that he had no choice.

I guess we will find out a lot more sunday night.

This part of the post I totally understand.

I was NEVER a Romo fan until the end of the pre-season. I was one of the ones saying he was an UFA Div II QB with a below-average arm. I wanted Henson to be the guy because, based on the hype, he was the one who was supposed to be good.

But after wincing so many times when I saw Henson play and seeing Romo make play after play after play, I had to come to reality and say Romo was the better player regardless of size, arm strength, college background or anything else.

I started warming up to Romo as the pre-season went on, but I remember when I really began to believe he might just be able to be our future. The play was the last play in regulation of the Minnesota pre-season game. It was 4th and goal and I was having to listen to the radio broadcast. I remember saying to myself..."Ok Romo, they say you have something called "moxie" or "it", well, show us what you've got." The next thing I heard was Brad Sham on the call saying..."Romo rolls to his right, he looks, he throws...Touchdown!" I just smiled.

He may be another Kevin Sweeney or Clint Stoerner, but I have grown to the point of believing he can be an exciting, young quality starting QB in this league.

I'm excited to see him get his chance and even though I don't agree with a lot of Parcells ways, I do believe he's done a great job grooming Romo up until this point and he's given him the absolute best possible chance to succeed. Now, let's see what he can do!

Parcells has no choice but to put Romo in. It's sad that an unproven QB gives this team the best chance to win. But the tapes don't lie, look at the plays we were able to use just because of Romo.

Ell as bad as Bledsoe was you gotta admit your boys first pass was memorably ugly as well, maybe he will do better but the truth is we had to see this year because a lot of things will change next year ,we might have two different qb's and a new coach by then, they don't call it the NotForLong for nothing, and anybody who thought Bledsoe was gonna walk away from game checks in the middle of a season is crazy, he may have alot of $$ but he's gonna get alot more before the season ends and ride off into the sunset, he's working on the kids college funds for the rest of the year..

Here's the thing with Romo.

The things he brings to the table are great. He brought so much energy to the team, and he seemed to be playing very, very well...save a few mistakes.

Here's what IMO he needs to do:
*Get some work on how to deal with blitzes, he threw two INT's because defenders were in his face.
*Just work more with the receivers. They'll get used to his throwing style (which is different from Bledsoe's), and hopefully they'll get the different routes down (which I think was the problem with his interception around Witten.)
