I guess Arizona fans should be talking superbowl too since they beat the Champs today... Preseason folks. Nothing more, nothing less.

I guess you have to be drafted high or attend a big name college football program before fans take you serious.

And I guess all it takes is one great preseason performance for some fans to anoint you Football Jesus.

Hey that Junior Gumph guy had what 2 sacks tonight. I guess he should be starting also.

Actually he's been playing well in training camp and he played well last year in preseason and in training camp. How can you possibly ever become an NFL quarterback by your standards (i.e., until you've proven yourself in regular season play)?

The guy has played for several years now. Some of you folks chose to focus on the baseball player instead of him.

The battle is for obviously the number 2 QB posittion. Do the Cowboys need to go get a veteran or do they have one capable of playing and winning a couple games..... Bledsoe hands down is the starter

The question is who is Blesoe's backup?...make no bones about it. The Tuna is playing for the superbowl, with or without Bledsoe..

Indeed. Quoted for Truth.

Battle is obviously for number 2 position? What battle? You ever seen a battle for number 2 result in one guy playing the ENTIRE game? ;)

Since pre-season doesn't matter maybe we should cut him.

Romo did look good. He showed that he wasn't rattled, didn't force his throws, and ran when the lanes opened up.

I think he should be voted to the pro bowl since Romo is gonna be starting. Hey since that backup kicker bounced in a field goal too, he should be starting.

I love the argument that pre-season doesn't matter. Should we just go off hunches for non-veteran players? Perhaps 11-on-11 drills without pads is a better judge of talent.

I have not taken a single side through Quincy Carter, Chad Hutchinson, Clint Steorner, Drew Henson and company. I completely ignored all those 200+ reply threads about our next QB.... until now. :) Tony Romo is the first backup whom I've felt compelled to backup. They've all had the physical skills, something about Romo though, he just has "it." He has those instincts you can't teach. Seen this since his rookie year. I'm not calling for Bledsoe's job, but I really think Romo is as close as we've come to a homegrown legit starter since Aikman.

Romo is hands down THE #2 QB on this team. But that's not saying much. Im still scared to death of what would happen should Bledsoe go down. One great half of preseason football *yeah i know he played the whole game, but honestly against 3rd teamers the second half was just eh* does not a good QB make. Hell, does not an effective backup make, even.

Some of you are just SO desperate for the next Troy Aikman you'll jump on any performance as proof positive of the next great Cowboy QB. People did it with QC, they did it with Hutch, did it with Stoerner, people did it with Henson and they are doing it with Romo.

Wake me when we actually use a draft pick on a QB.

Ed Werder, where there's smoke, there's fire. No, he won't start the season, but one injury, one slump, don't be surprised to see Romo playing.

Well I think it is fine to be happy that a COWBOY did well during a game.

But sadly too many have their goofy agendas and either have to stir up the proverbial poo or want to turn it into a qb vs qb debate.

Some people need to get over themselves concerning the QBs imo

I'm not ready to go off the deep and say Romo should start but I feel much better about having him back up DB.

What on earth are you supposed to judge talent by? If you completely discredit preseason and training camp, what could you possibly judge talent by? I'd love to see you tell a coach that he has to evaluate his team and pick his starters without training camp or preseason.
