This will be THE topic everywhere before Eagles game.

Seems stupid to bring him back considering how crippled he's looked. He can't move anymore. He can't take a hit. Let it go. It's been fun. Go pretend you're a golfer.

He can be the backup.

When Romo homers start saying stuff like this.. you KNOW it is over for Romo.

Or, Risen is perhaps the most sarcastic person on the planet. I'm going with the latter.

He should have retired after 2014.

I am so tired of being called a homer around here.

Romo homer.. not just homer.

Wouldn't bother me any. Won't happen..but it wouldn't bother me and about 70% of our fans. What throws can Tony make right now that Dak can't? He's never been a good deep throw QB, and Dak isn't yet but could be someday. It's all about the money JJ is paying Tony. Too bad, because this will stunt DP's development.

All those once in a blue moon times. Or is it this once?

Down the seams ball is something Dak hasn't demonstrated. But it will come later. Dak is young so not seeing the field as well as Romo. This offense can be very explosive with Romo IF he is not limited by his back. At the same time I am certain Romo would have throw 1-2 picks already based on history.

Good problem to have with two QBs right now especially one is a frequently injured vet and other is a rookie with many things to learn.

Its going to be funny seeing Romo cut up defenses, and most of the fanbase jumping back on his bandwagon. He can still play but a big if "Injury". If he can stay healthy he will do fine.

Nah, most haters would still wait for him to fail so they can say, "I told you so"

Is this a serious question?

How about:

-Those sideline throws Dak kept missing on Sunday
-The Back Shoulder fade that him (Romo) and dez mastered
-Deep throws down the field

Yes, 1-2 picks, 9-10 TDs.

Team = 4-0 record

 

[Coy]

People seem to forget Tony is 15-4 in his last 19 games, and now he would have a much better offense than in those 19 games.
What am I missing?

Physically, I'm sure Dak can make any throw Tony can. But it's going to be awhile before Dak can see half the opportunities Romo can. He has always been good at pulling a big play out of a broken play, and he's dramatically cut down on mistakes over the years. Romo is going to play because he's the better quarterback when healthy, and Dak's development will still progress at a pace that most of us wouldn't have thought possible a few months ago.

Exactly.

I love Dak. I think he's the future and I think we can win with him now. Super excited about it.

That said, people act like this whole winning thing isn't something that Tony would be doing. He's been elite/dominant the last couple years when he's played. Against the competition we've played and with having an elite RB like Elliott, I am pretty certain Romo would have the Cowboys 4-0 right now.

Love Dak, but Tony is getting so little respect. It should still be his team if he's healthy. If he comes back and struggles because the back/clavicle are nagging, okay, then pull the plug.
