News: PFT: Tony Romo throws in pregame warmups

[etw926]

I'm really looking forward to Romo starting and all of the idiot post and threads to come.

Romo is no fool.

He knows how he got his job and he's not trying to get Romoed by Dak. He's going to make sure people know he's rehabbing well and make no mistake that he'll be the first to tell us when he's ready to return.

Calm down, I meant it as sarcasm. tongue And cheek to those who want Romo benched

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.

He won't be...

He went against a high school defense last week who had safeties who didn't react to him staring at his WRs.....

I really think Romo is worried about his job. This is a good thing because I believe for the first time that he will be even more hungrier than the past when he is ready to return. Dak presents a threat to him.

At least this year we don't need to rush him back like last year. Let him heal completely.

 

[Don Corleone]

For the first time in his career, there seems to be a legit backup. He has to be feeling a little extra pressure to get back.

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.

If I thought it'd be 8-8 either way, I'd agree.
But I tend to think this year they're 6-10 (maybe 7-9) with Dak, but 11-5 (maybe 10-6) with Romo.
But if Romo cant stay healthy after his return,the point will be moot.
Either way, longer term, I'm pretty stoked about Dak.

Hoping he can come back for the cincy game. Gonna be tough to bear cincy and green bay with Romo let alone without him

Being the Don you know there can only be one on top !!! And Godfather, Sonny could not get the job done when you were laid up !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Cincy's defense would be salivating.

Did anyone watch the pressure the Giants brought on Brees today? They will do the same thing if/when Romo comes back and I fear it will be similar which isn't a good thing. I think they respected Dak's mobility which is why they didn't bring as much pressure against him as they did Brees. I only used the Giants as a reference since we just played them and Brees is about as immobile as Romo. I believe other teams will have a similar strategy. Personally I think it's Dak's job to lose at this point, not the other way around.

Right. The team has 100% neglected the QB position and he has never had competition. Then we luck out with Dak and now there is a whole bunch of competition. Dak replaced the starter on his high school team and on his college team when those players were injured. They never got their jobs back, same will happen with Romo.

I'm in the camp of believing he won't play another meaningful down in a Cowboys uniform. He has hardly played since 2014. If this team is winning, it makes zero sense to make a switch mid season.

That's one camp full of dummies that you reside in.

Just for the record, I'm not bashing Romo. I appreciate everything he's done for us but at some point it's time to move on. I say this not only because I like our options mich more with Dak and think he will only get better with each game but also for Tony's own health.

Seriously, he's one hit away from a wheel chair. I know a guy who had spinal problems, tripped flat on his face, couldn't move his legs and now he's a paraplegic. A 350 lb lineman or 250 lb linebacker bearing down on you at full speed is nothing to play around with when you have a history like Tony does. I know it's not an ideal way to go out but for the love of God, think of your future and forget a dang SB ring.

 

[DFWJC]

It works both ways folks, more reps helps Dak develop. More reps give defensive coordinators more game-planning material.

He won't last one game...he will get injured again. He's finished
