The only routine that'll probably work for Tony at this time is retirement.

or Marcus Mariota

might as well get hurt this game - tank this year - that will give Romo a whole year to heal

and maybe a year for Marcus Mariota to adjust

there is ZERO guarantee that a QB you take anywhere in the draft will be the franchise qb the team needs. Andrew Luck might be an exception but there are no Andrew Lucks in next draft that I know of. thinking that a kid will come in and play better than Romo is very sketchy. Defense needs to be a priority in early draft and Romo needs to just drive the bus. he can do that if he has to.

I had a fairly strong feeling Romo would never be the same based on experience. I have had the same surgery at the same age for the same injury. I am not near the man I used to be and I don't get hit by 300 lbs. men for a living. I love Tony and wish him the best but this is the beginning of the end I am sad to say.

Wow that's disconcerting.

I am not sure he even has practiced this week unless I misread the information on here.

nope not at all

we will never win with the great TONY ROMO AS OUR QB

don't give me all his numbers - I don't care about how many yards he has passed for

he's got a loser mentality - you ever seen him after a bad pass or int - has he head hanging - or goes ah shucks

so I guess you guys think that INDY just happed to have 1 - 15 season the Luck came out - YEA RIGHT

There are a few lucky people who come back 100% but they are few and far between. I hoped Romo would beat the odds but the on field results are showing he isn't.

Tony Romo has not ever been the problem with this team. He will probably never be the guy he was due to his injury but he was the reason we won at least 8 games the last few seasons. Coaching issues are what kept us out of the playoffs.

Similar issues with my back...The discouraging part to me was the almost "emergency like" surgery. He was under the knife within days. That is not typical unless there is nerve damage.

My buddy had a similar injury (15mm herniation) and immediate surgery because of nerve issues and some incontinence. He is recovered but says the leg strength and torque for golf isnt there.

Exactly, it is the leg pain and strength that get you after these injuries.

Last time I checked, EVERY QB throws interceptions and has bad games. The chances of that happening are multiplied when the QB has to take the team on his back and carry them especially when the coach is an absolute idiot when it comes to clock/game management.

Got to. They have no choice.

I still say they should have taken Johnny Football when they had the chance. I knew Romo would not be the same and they had a potential franchise QB sitting there for the taking.

Tony is a tough guy.
