Tony benefited from more turnovers in 2014 and the talent is equal. How is this team historically better than 2014? Don't say Zeke, because that guy is overrated as hell. Tony's teams averaged about 22ppg between the 2008-2013 seasons. Stop it
I'll say zeke

No way Dak should be replaced this week, give him a chance to turn it around. I say he gets one more game and maybe even the first half against Detroit. If he is still struggling by halftime vs Detroit, put Romo in and take a look. He will need a game or two to get some live action and work out the kinks.

The last thing I want to see is Dak not improving all the way into the playoffs and they switch to a cold Romo in the divisional round hoping for a miracle. We need to see what Romo realistically has before then.

Dak needs to get back to what was working......use those legs and start running again to lessen the defense. If he does that, no reason he cant get back to form.

Wow is this guy serious? 13 games in and he leads the league as a rookie and is in discussion for MVP. What do you mean what has he done? You think this team would be 11-2 without him? I don't want whatever you're smoking thats for sure.

It's more about what's being left on the field by not letting the better qb see the field.


I wouldn't call daks last month a **** show. I could actually forgive a few stinkers. But I think we're seeing he's an average arm talent at best

1. Dak is the MVP of this team

2. Anybody can run behind this line

3. Damn straight they would be 11-2 without him.

Can you explain why you'd intentionally say what we know you know to be wrong things? I want to know more. Michigan fan? Etc.

1. Dak is the MVP of this team yes with performances like last night? I'll take Zeke as MVP

2. Anybody can run behind this line I thought this was laid to rest last year, and No Dunbar and Morris have difficulty

3. Damn straight they would be 11-2 without him lol man you are the gift that keeps on giving

WOW. I think you are game over.

What has he done that 20 other backs couldn't do? They would even make a defender miss now and then. Elliot's hasn't done that since Pittsburgh

Because you give the guy who got you to 11-2 a chance to right himself.

In addition Romo ain't long-term for this team and It's important to see what Prescott can do under adversity.

This team is in the playoffs and the chances are very good it that it retains home field throughout the playoffs.

Why?

It's simply the right thing to do.

People forget a few things: the coaches see Romo every day in practice, it's not 2014, he's barely played in 2 years, he's 36 and coming off multiple surgeries. To expect him to be the savior is unrealistic. To bench Dak for his second loss in 13 games would be pure panic, and not the kind of thing you want to see from the front office.

Fans can panic and some take full advantage of it. If the team panics, forget about it.
This team has been asking Tony to save them for years. It's about time they figured out how to right the ship by themselves.

What did Zeke do to bail us out last night? Not a damn thing per usual. Zeke ain't spit without gigantic holes. Last night is proof why Dak is MVP of this team: He plays bad we don't win.

Zeke couldn't bail us out in 3 point game. No gigantic holes to run thru. Without those he's useless
