I'm guessing this stretch of games is going to be a little rough. I think best case scenario is 10-6. That's good enough to be in the playoffs though and if we're finally health going into the postseason? Watch out.

What's it going to be then, eh?

We are going to look like arizona did when Palmer went down, anyone who doesnt think otherwise is living in fantasy land

Defense has to play like theirs did too. Real pleased with the results Sunday. We will have to see if that is sustainable.

He does not have to led us to 11 wins, only 3. If he can win 3 of the next 7, we get Romo back at 5-4. From there it is on. We hit the easier part of our schedule and should roll into the playoffs. Out of The next 7 games the Falcons, Saints, Gnats, Eagles and Tampa are all very winnable games, even with Brandon or Matt or ME playing QB with this team.

Cassell gives us the better chance of winning, I dont want ROmo back until he is 100% bc he will be facing the JETs and BILLS D

He has the worst QBR rating out of any QB in the NFL, he doesnt even see wide open receivers. Once you start getting pressure on him he folds like a tent. the defense is gonna get worned down bc they will be on the field the entire game

Seems he seen them 7 times out of 7 times he seen any receiver last Sunday.

STop! coming into a game when the defnese is dead tired and gave up with a lead is the not the same as starting. You will see how bad he is this sunday

We get it, you hate Weeden, but IF you are a fan of the team, then support him.
So you want to bring in a QB cold that doesn't know the system, and throw him in there. Some of our guys are still learning the offense and need to know where to line up at. Weeden at least can help them, and knows where they should be. Cassell won't know that.

The most interesting thing to me is going to be seeing how Weeden performs in his second year with the Dallas offense. Can't expect much from any QB in Cleveland and not much more of a QB in his first year learning an offensive system.

I'm always a wait and see kind of guy and usually optimistic, so I can see Weeden surprising everyone and playing very well. Ty Crawford, Lee, Hitchens and our crew of DBs have been playing very well. We get Gregory back any time and Hardy/RoMac in two and a half weeks. I'm guessing Leary plays Sunday.

Weeden goes 4-4.

Romo goes 4-2.

10-6

I think his 2nd season in Dallas under Linehan will show. You are entitled to your opinion. I think QB are capable of learning and improving.

You make it seem like its not warranted. He is the worst QB as a starter in the NFL and now he is our guy. OF COURSE I DONT LIKE HIM

Mickey Spagnola was on the NFLN this morning. He was asked about bringing in Cassell. He said in 1993, this reminds him a bit of that year. As to bringing in a vet QB to protect themsleves for having an experienced QB. Now this is different, as Weeden is in his 2nd year here, and has started 28 games in the NFL.

But in 93, Aikman hurt his hamstring, and was going to miss some playing time. They had Jason Garrett as backup, and threw a total of 13 passes as his NFL experience. So they brought in Kosar as that back up vet experience. Garrett played 1 1/2 quarter, had a 3-0 lead. But Kosar was Jimmy's QB, so he came in later.
He was not saying this will happen, as Weeden knows this offense, and Kellen Moore has no real game experience. So they want that vet there as insurance.

I think we will see a better Weeden this being his 2nd year now in Linehan's system.

Tony is better than Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady?

Hes better than BRADY right now, he made First team all pro behind rodgers. Brady beat a horrilbe colts team taht tony destroyed and a Seahawks defense that was injured. IF WE WERE IN THE AFC LAST YEAR we are SB champs

I started out at 14-2
Considering the injuries, I think 11-5 is obtainable.

I started out at 14-2 also. I think 11-5, maybe 10-6. I just think the offensive line and defensive line (assuming no more injuries) are just too strong to not put up double digits in the win column.

No, he's not better than Brady right now. Sorry.

Right now or past season? We will see what he does this game. Thus far this season he is 7-7 with a TD and no Ints. I know some do not think a player can ever improve I'm not one of those people I have seen QB struggle and improve if given time. I think he has the skills and the more he understand this offense the more the game will slow down for him. It was not like Philly did not come after him once Romo went down, I did not see a guy panic out there or make stupid throws.

What is your prediction now in lieu of the injuries? I know it might change a lot after we see Weeds play, but lets hear them!

10-6 is possible
9-7 is very likely if weeds is good/bad/good/bad
8-8 if we have to hold for life in every game

Lol yeah he is, Brady got to play in a horrilbe conference. HE lost to the packers too, Look at the stats last year

If you asked most ex-players, ex-coaches, current players and current coaches, I'd bet all except for those partial to the Cowboys would say Brady is the better quarterback. And they wouldn't have to clear their throats either. :)

As for HE lost to the Packers too. ...
1.) I thought it isn't the quarterback that loses but the team (or at least that's what Cowboys fans say when it comes to discussing Romo and playoff futility or Super Bowls) and
2.) Romo lost to the Packers too. Brady has also beaten the Ravens, a team we somehow don't manage to beat with or without Romo. Oh, and Peyton Manning also. ;)

Having said that, you're entitled to your opinion.
