Romo cleared for practice, may be active for Steelers

[Aven8]

God love him, but when does Romo start to be a distraction?? That's all I've heard about all week and not one thing about the Steelers!!

 

[Don Corleone]

So many want Romo to have a last hurrah they're willing to screw up a great season by the team and a young rookie QB just to give him one last chance at a ring. Unbelievable!

Meh. He will throw a pick 6 in the divisional round and screw up his own chance.

 

[Trouty]

Mental aspect? Why does he throw so many untimely picks in huge games?

This is tired, Don, respectfully, bro. He played in two huge games in 2014 and was flawless. His two most recent "huge" games

Edit -- I don't want Dak out, but this Romo bashing is BS.

Tom Brady was a 6th round pick.

I'm of the opinion you ride this out with the young guy. This team is on the brink of something special in an overall weak NFC. Let's be clear that Romo hasn't played a meaningful down in almost one year. It would be insane to put him in now.

I don't disagree with any of that. But my reply was to a different narrative of yours. This post isn't demeaning of Romo.

See, there's a way to prop up one guy without slandering the other. I see both "sides" do this (demean the QB they don't like) and I shake my damn head.

Tom Brady was a 6th round pick.

Thanks for the random tidbit. After

We got ours in the 4th

Point is... sometimes fate just takes you in a specific direction. NE saw the effect Brady had on the organization and didn't look back. Although Brady wasn't a rookie, he went all the way as a first year starter.

I don't think he was talking about Zoners, Trouty. I think he was referring to the media and their Tony questions.

I was just being snarky to my boy @Aven8, Zimmy! I actually agree with him and want him or someone to start one as we get closer. Jinx has one up, but Aven is right, we need a few more Steeler-oriented threads. Hope Aven didn't take it wrong

Edit -- and yeah, @Zimmy Lives, you're absolutely right, we're getting very few takes in the media on our upcoming game, they are heavily focused on the Romo/Dak deal.

She will be active this week and holding a clipboard beautifully as usual. Works for me.

I want him to be active in case we need him. Just don't want him starting and messing up what we have now.

He doesn't.

And why do people keep using that stupid *** phrase(s)? "Untimely," "inopportune," etc.

Because an interception on a Hail Mary before the half or one thrown on third and 20 deep in the opponent's territory that serves as, basically, a punt isn't an "untimely" or an "inopportune" pick.

Just saying.

Well that's a novel idea!

Nahh, I would rather start one and complain about who's our 4th best RB, and WR! That will get me more likes!!

Haha, okay. There are rare exceptions when interceptions may not be inopportune or untimely. Touche.
