You've got 8 that don't dress. So the big deal is what?
The big deal is no one is injured yet....once the games start the roster spots get more valuable......it is like no one remembers last year when everyone insisted Romo was OK....in 3 weeks it will be too late to IR him and he will still be 5 weeks away

I didn't take his comment to be sarcasm. If they're using roster spaces for those guys, keeping Romo on the 53 absolutely make sense.
pretty much what i meant, i will add for them to not IR Romo that 2nd MRI must've been more positive

So let's lose a few weeks if he's healthy?

For someone 54th man. For a guy who likely doesn't even dress?

Gee. Franchise QB for an extra game or two or some Zoner's pet cat?

Step back and actually think about what you are talking about.

Because that always happens in DAL

How many times you need to see the guy play in situations where most players would not before you're willing to admit he's a guy whose going to push the limits?

We'll see who's right, but keeping him on the active roster should give you a clue as to what they're thinking the timetable probably is.

They maybe hoping that he can be back either right before or right after the bye as opposed to after the Eagles game.
Romo will armor up as soon as there is no risk other than pain and be back out there.
Aw, did we disappoint you by saying Romo will be coming back sooner? What a joke you are.
He's going to be back sooner than is being speculated in the press.
Maybe he is ready for game 3, maybe game 6. Just don't rush him back too soon.
I'd make the argument that the potential of getting him back for GB or the Eagles brings more value to the team
He will come back, take another huge hit, and just lay there
If I had to bet, Id say he's back for GB......

All these uses of "back" and not one referencing Romo's back :D

Good, we will need him if we wanna make the playoffs and win this division

I wish y'all knew what the heck you were talking about !!! Thank God for the years we got to watch Tony, but it's over. He's done, and he will never be the same. Why can't y'all get that through your brains? What's happened the last few times he been hit? Uhhhhhh, it's time for him to hang them up.!! We have a better chance moving forward without him.

All these guys running their jaws have never had back injuries, for sure not broken bones in their backs.!!!

Like the one Tony had in 2014, for example?

You guys who think he's done are basing your certainty on nothing. It was a broken collarbone, for crying out loud.
