[NewsBot]

Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo continues to be out with a compression fracture in his L1 vertebrate. But there some good news hiding in plain sight before Sunday’s game at Washington. Romo, per multiple league sources, threw 15-20 passes in pregame warmups on Sunday at Washington. He maxed out at 20 yards. The goal continues to be a…http://youwillnotrackme2.net/b.gif?host=profootballtalk.nbcsports.com&blog=&post=2412289&subd=nbcprofootballtalk&ref=&feed=1

It speaks to the level of confidence dak has inspired that this thread hasn't blown up. Last year this would have been a 20 pager

Well, I think it's good for both quarterbacks.. Progress in his rehab.. and on-field progress for Dak.

If he comes back for that game, the Eagles will put him out for good. Maybe it can be a non issue. Either way, this is an 8-8 team at best. Defense is not up to par.

Joe take your eagles crap and go home for a cheese steak

Good news. Let's hope Dallas can string wins and get Romo healthy and ready to roll.

I love the way Dak has come in and played as a rookie, he gives us a chance to win games. But Tony wins games, the debate about who starts might be real next year it Dak continues his progression but it is silly this year.

 

[Shinaoi]

I like dak. But tony coming back makes me so hyped. Don't want him to rush it, but looking forward to it.

Hope isn't a strategy. Got any more directions off the 95 to entertain us with?

I'm not sure. Going 8-8 with Dak Prescott is MUCH more promising than going 8-8 with Tony Romo at this point in TR's career. By the time he comes back, it will be clear who should be the starter.

And JG will obviously pick the other guy.

I'll eat crow as necessary, but I'll be shocked if wentz is as good as he was last week. 8-8 seems to be he goal in this conference.

6 game timeline is great. Gets us a very good look at Prescott and gives him the ability to see much of the NFL. But if we drop some games, it gives us enough time with a top 10 QB to turn it around

When Dak play QB as well as Romo does you can have a conversation, until then it's silly.

Debatable. If the defense is bad enough we're going 7-9 anyway, there's a legitimate option to prep for the future and get him better.

I love Romo. I always have. But if the D continues to be bad (against real teams), the Romo window might be closed.

He only threw two picks from what I hear.

The highest paid back up in the NFL.

Romo can make 7-9, 9-7 by himself, we have D reinforcements coming. We would be 2-0 with Romo starting.

I love Dak, but you play the best QB until there is no reason too and I like Dak a lot for the future.

And I think that is completely reasonable. I think we can both agree there is a lot of football left before Tony is game ready and we'll have a good idea what this guy is about.

And we can both agree that Dak needs to make the most of playing against a bad Bears defense.
