1st yes I do and I also recall him cutting QC loose. QC did a decent job that season not a sole reason we won.
As for BP influence on Romo sure he did but I don't think Romo stopped growing or learning after playing 1/2 a season under BP. I think highly of BP but then does this mean he failed with the other guys? Fact is Wilson has not had a lot of talent to work with and no matter how good a coach is he still needs talent to work with.
'Young talent'? Most definitely. We've agreed that the draft investment has been almost nil. But he's done little to nothing with any vets he's glad here either. The waste of time that was Dustin Vaughan is a black mark against ALL of them. Us fans were chastised for not seeing what was never there with that guy while others once again preached 'patience'.
Without putting words in your mouth, do you think Romo stopped developing and learning? his play has continued to rise and while chalk board and pre season mean something it does not compare to when live bullets are taking place and BP was not here for that nor Payton so to discredit other coaches and act as if only BP and Payton were the reason Romo developed I think it s bit silly almost to the point of your own dislike of Garrett and Wade and to go out of your way to discredit others who have worked with Romo during his career
No. I think Romo certainly continued to learn and develop, but I think most if that stems from the foundation set by Parcells and Payton before they left. Heck, Parcells left guidelines on his way out the door!
Look, this isn't one failure amid a myriad of successes, this is one success amongst a myriad of failures. They haven't identified, drafted, signed, or developed any other quarterback. And again I will state, for all of the criticisms leveled at the players, who brought them in? Who thought they could play? Who thought that each was the answer? I think we all know the answers to these questions and the name isn't Jones. He got vetoed on the guy he wanted.
