Romo worshipers, don't bust an artery, but what if the Cowboys are 9-1?

plasticman · Sep 24, 2015

Yes, I'm about to commit blasphemy.....

Just imagine that the Cowboys are 9-1, perhaps even 10-0, by the time Tony Romo can get back on the field. Brandon Weeden is the top rated QB in the league, the Cowboys have the #1 offense and they are on a roll, an inevitable collision course with Super Bowl 5X.

Their next game is Thanksgiving against the Carolina Panthers, 8-2, and the 2nd best record in the NFC behind the Cowboys. Homefield advantage for the playoffs could very well depend on the outcome of this game.

Weeden's rise has been the story of this season....

Do you sit him and start Tony Romo, fresh from an injury, his ability to perform at his typical level in question?

Suppose Weeden continues to excel?

Notice, I never said that Tony Romo would perform poorly, I never said that he wouldn't perform like an All Pro future Hall o Famer. I'm just suggesting that his abilities would be unknown due to the effects of the injury, still not completely healed, he could perhaps be a tad rusty.

If Weeden leads the Cowboys to a Super Bowl, heck, just mentioning the possibility.....

Would that be a good thing or a bad thing for you Romo worshipers.

And am I officially a hater for daring to dream that Weeden might actually perform at a very high level with this offense?

Let the paranoid condemnation begin.....

What if Brice Butler averages 7 touchdowns, 24 catches and 305 yards per game while Dez is out? Should he continue being the #1 option? Okay, sure, yeah... why not? But it seems like a pretty ridiculous thing to speculate and spurn on an argument about.

Bungarian · Sep 24, 2015

Weeden part not going to happen so no need to debate it.

DogFace · Sep 24, 2015

No. Romo is going to take us to a Super Bowl.

Wezsh0T · Sep 24, 2015

Lol...that's not going to happen. Did you see Weeden vs. Arizona last year?

Slashar00 · Sep 24, 2015

You put Romo back in and you don't think twice about it. He's been our franchise QB for many years with a career passer rating second in NFL history.

It's not like Romo is Rob Johnson. Drew Bledsoe isn't even as good as Romo. This is not a case of having an above average QB and then replacing him with a franchise QB. Romo is a franchise QB, third in MVP voting last year.

PJTHEDOORS · Sep 24, 2015

lol. Now Weeden is Montana while Romo is out. Too funny.

vaturkey · Sep 24, 2015

This would be a nice problem to have. Falls into the category of winning two different lotteries and trying to decide which one to collect first.

spook930 · Sep 24, 2015

Won't happen but I'm a fan of rolling with the hot hand. If he's dooing that good you have to roll with him.

Doomsay · Sep 24, 2015

This is the bad time.

ctrous25 · Sep 24, 2015

Then Weeden has proved to be a good backup.. kinda simple. . Romo is a top 5 QB. . Weeden is not

I would play Weeden 1 more game and then let Romo start on Thanksgiving, so he doesn't go on 4 days rest. Just because Weeden went 6-1 or 7-0, Romo went 2-0 and would still give us the best chance at winning a championship. Then I would celebrate the fact that we would have a great backup for the next couple of years.

Staubacher · Sep 24, 2015

I feel like the OP just wanted to say Romo Worshippers as much as possible

JDSmith · Sep 24, 2015

I would alternate them, sending each QB in with the play he's supposed to run. I'm assuming we'll play NE in the Super Bowl and I don't want them stealing our transmissions, so I'm sending the play in via courier - and while he's there he might as well run it.

Good god someone woke up HUNTING for something to get mad about. How about we do something really strange and just play it out first?

No good trolling action that way.

RJ_MacReady · Sep 24, 2015

What if Hayden goes on a terror and ends up with 2 sacks over 8 games?

WoodysGirl · Sep 24, 2015

Romo worshipers, huh?

Trying to figure out if this is a Romo-hate thread or Weeden-love thread.

Both concepts boggle the mind.

JDSmith · Sep 24, 2015

Candy Worshipers: What if it starts raining Jujubes and Lemon Drops!

Which would you choose?

He hates the fans he considers to only care about Romo and not the Cowboys overall. So it's not Romo-hate or Weeden-love. It's fan hate. He thinks they are not true fans, as he is the only judge of true fandom.

I actually don't think there is any such thing as Weeden-love, unless that's his mom posting.

Romo worshipers, don't bust an artery, but what if the Cowboys are 9-1?
