It's not hiding. It's keeping him out of terrible situations. Philly is known for being dirty just like the Giants against us. Late hits to the back and what not. So why roll him out there just to have Cox or hicks target his lower back?
It is hiding. This is professional football and an injury can happen in any game against any team. Even in practice.
I agree put him out there and see what we got, who is to say Cleveland is going to be an easy game, this is the NFL anything can happen any given Sunday.
These Romo haters need to stop acting like they are so concerned about Tony getting injured against Philly and just admit that they want to see Dak vs Wentz.
That's not what's been reported tho. I think the passes a few weeks ago were just tosses. These passes from all the different observations are basically confirming that he's ramping up his rehab.
I'm sure he will.. It's what got him through 2014. And it keeps Dak sharp, as well.
He was medically cleared a few days ago. Back is completely healed. Per Garrett, it's about conditioning and re-building his core.
He didn't need to rush anything. If they had told him that he wouldn't have any problems getting hit and if Dak were not winning, I'm almost certain that he would have been throwing long ago. There might have been pain from throwing if he did it weeks ago, but IMO he would have endured the pain if that was the only thing keeping him from playing. It's just my opinion, I obviously can't prove anything one way or the other.
Now this, I actually agree with. He would have tried to rush back if the team were struggling. But he still had to be cleared medically. The last MRI cleared him.
