What do you think Tony's reaction will be if, in fact, he does not get his job back when cleared? Big distraction with locker room choosing sides, or will he accept the role of mentor and good teammate? Hmmm

Romo has always been a passive leader so he will take it in stride in a ho hum fashion and fade quietly. I fully expect him to start after the bye week though. I'm already working with EOD in an effort to prevent my head from exploding when that happens.

I think he'll be a stand-up guy to the team once he comes to terms with the decision, if it were to happen. It's not going to happen yet, though.

Bleu, you're badly wrong if you think Tony is a passive influence on this team or that he does anything ho-hum. He's the single biggest voice in the Cowboys locker room and everything he does is deliberate and carefully considered. I swear, I have no idea what some of you guys think you have been watching all these years when it comes to how you describe Tony after-the-fact.

I agree, I think he will start too. He's always been a class act. Whatever happens, I hope he gets the respect he's earned.

The narrative of Romo that has been perpetuated recently is astonishing @Idgit...

All of the dislike for him that was present in the early years has been quietly seething under the surface, apparently. I have to admit, I expect very little from our fans in general, but this caught even me by surprise. I thought we were so far past this garbage.

Glad Prescott is playing well and it looks like we found our quarterback of the future. No matter what some fans think, Romo will be back as the starter against the Eagles. Our offense will keep on clicking and most likely be even better with Romo at quarterback. Prescott can continue to learn from the veteran and if Romo does go down again we have our future quarterback waiting in the wings.

He's getting his job back.

For how long? That's the interesting question. And if he does go down again, then what?

Can we finally move on then? Probably not, Jerry is determined to see this baby through.

I'm ready for a new beginning regardless of the outcome.

What you guys fail to realize, is that the desire to move on is more prevalent than you've ever imagined. I hear it every weekend at the watering hole not just by my fellow Boys fan but also from fans of other teams expressing themselves regarding the elephant in the room.

Uhmm. Thank you. I wasn't going to address it & have no idea where it came from. Hello left field.

It burbles under the surface on both sides of the QB discussions. I really wish it wouldn't.

Personally, I don't see race or gender, so I just assume both players are white middle-class females until somebody tells me otherwise, but apparently that's not actually the case.

this is exactly what it is. If everyone thinks back to the summer of 14 all the media here and these types of fans said he was done and wanted him gone. Many were all up in arms when Orton didn't show up because they thought he was better. Then after the niners game they were going crazy.

The night we won at philly they were all like I love this guy, he is so tough. What a great player.

They all have insisted they are right that he is not good and never was and have been begging for reasons to say so for over a decade. Pretty Sad when you think about it. I laughed today when I heard Steve Dennis on the radio today still bagging on romo after all these years. I mean at some point you have to realize you are the one that is wrong. Steve Dennis used to lead off his local sports broadcast by calling Tony, Tony Oh No.....blamed him for everything and loved owens. Never admitted he was wrong.

anyway. today has been nuts. Between the local media and the national media they are begging for the attention of A qb controversy in Dallas.

Meanwhile rivers and stafford keep losing, The giants wr acted like a baby and no one really cared after five minutes etc...

Romo probably for one final time is going to be used to drive ratings locally and nationally.

Romo will get his job back and play the rest of the year if back hold up.

After the season, I think they will look to move forward with Prescott

If you asked those same beer-gutted fans what the team's record with Romo starting was over the last two years would be more likely to guess 4-15 than 15-4 and that Romo leads the league in interceptions every year.
