Rumors going around the internet is that there is no structural damage, just a matter of how much pain is involved.

If he does play against Arizona, they are going to shoot him up with the good stuff before the game.

They've been shooting him up with painkillers all season. Maybe they'll just need to up the dose.

I got a Demerol shot one time in the ER.....................that is some good stuff right there, you be feeling no pain at all................of course your arm is still broken, but you don't even care............................LOL

I believe Toradol is the painkiller of choice in the NFL. Demerol would cause everyone to play like Donovan McNabb.

I enjoyed reading the doctor's article but it did not change my opinion about Romo returning. I still think his ego got us beat.

There is a fine line with that statement. People say Romo is not a leader. I believe that he leads by example.

He felt fine enough, the MD felt fine for him to return and wanted to leading them to victory. I respect that. I don't think it has anything to do with his ego but more of his desire to win for the Dallas Cowboys and show his teammates that he is a leader.

Unfortunately this time he was unable to do that. I was more concerned with his long term health and this season. I just didn't want him to risk further injury and be out for the year. We have 8 games to go and would rather have him in there than Weeden.

Oh give me a break. The dude has played through injuiries on multiple occasions, and has led us to wins in many of those games.

Personally, I'll take a QB (or any player, for that matter) who wants to play on. Blame JG or the trainers if you think he shouldn't have played. But don't blame your franchise QB for saying "Gimme the rock" in a critical situation.

I had something in the hospital when I had the amputation. It was like a cold wave from the top of my head to my feet. No pain after that. Was good for about Six hours.

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.

This is on Romo. Why in the world would you turn your back to a defender and take a hit like that. He could of went down sideways or forward.

105.3 is saying Romo is going to miss the next three games. This is PURE speculation and I can not find anything anywhere to support this claim. They said there is "tweet" evidence implying he will be out. Just the messenger here.
