No diff than what others have said.



I guess so, but this tweet could mean that for now they trust Weeden and maybe Vaughn as the backup, Broaddus tweeted he´s Heard positive things about Romo specifically.

Anyway, hope everything’s alright.

If you look at the knee to the back it was off center from the spine on the right side. The defender basically hit the pad that was protecting Tony's back which was also off center because of the way he ducked. It's probable we dodged a bullet because it wasn't a direct hit to the spine like Neymar's was during the world cup.

I would let Romo start against Arizona but if he still looks like Fred Sanford moving around out there and also isn't recognizing the blitzes then Dallas needs to go with Weeden.

This is how I deal with not knowing. I think of all the worst case scenarios that I can think of and I try to rule them out.

There's no fracture

Uh... what else could be back-related and hideous but still allow you to finish out the game?

I guess I'm trying to get at is what's the worst this could be??? Slipped disc?

Media speculation (although stated as fact via twitter when asking Dr's "familiar with the case") is that he has blood in his urine. Conjecture is that kidney(s) are compromised and to what degree is being validated by additional testing. Medically MRI is the tool that provides the most detailed substrate view of damage on a section by section view of everything (not just soft tissue damage) It's like taking a steak and cutting it in 1/32" (or less) sections and examining each section front to back and top to bottom. A Dr. will have to chime in on what a CT scan does differently than an MRI and why it might follow an MRI as I always thought an MRI was the end all. Unless there is some kind of Xray dye injected into Romo's system that might allow a CT scan to pick-up ruptures / tears, etc. This is something I just considered.

I tend to agree with a diagnosis theory similar to this.

Seconded, RE Weeden looking good - except he needs to improve the touch on this throws - instead of drilling bullets everythime...

Thank God he's been getting extra reps.

based on tweet, it seems tomorrow we hear that'll it will simply be a pain tolerance. why can't the jacksonville game be this week ******

I know right but I'm almost ready to say play him this week against Ariz because of the importance and then sit him out for JVille and with the bye after that. That's 3 weeks of rest.
