Why do people keep saying the Cowboys are "Married to Dak for 2016"? No, they aren't. They aren't going to sit him after 1 or 2 bad games, but if he plays the same way over the next 6 quarters, we'll be saying hello to old #9 for the 2nd half of the Lions game. Dak has helped guide this team to an 11-2 record, and a win or two shy of home field advantage throughout the playoffs, which is very impressive. That being said, if he suddenly can't get the job done over 2 or 3 games, the Cowboys HAVE to go to Romo. The NFC is as weak as it's been in a long time, there isn't a team other than Seattle that scares anyone. Take them out of Seattle and they don't even scare anyone. The Boys have a real shot at making it to the SB, so why would they "ride it out" with a QB that has lost his mojo, when they have a proven veteran chomping at the bit to get back under center? You have to give it your best shot, with your best players, right now. This year, not next year. Winning in the NFL is hard, and nothing is guaranteed from one season to the next(just ask the panthers). Who knows when/if they'll get to this point again?
This. If anyone thinks Jerry is going to waste a potential #1 seed on a rookie QB who continues to struggle with a SB there for the taking, they are the ones who are nuts. Even the defense is playing better now. Dak will get the Bucs game, but if its another clunker Romo has to get a chance.
