News: ST: Stephen Jones: Romo will be ready for training camp and start of season

[DFWJC]

That us an arrogant comment considering his history.

You should love that he said that. Given that he's not one to brag, you have to take it at face value. He's confident .

 

[jobberone]

Now if he starts throwing the ball behind Devin Street, our precise route runner, straight out of Precise Route Running College, that's when I'll have a problem. Team Romo.

Fair enough! LOL

 

[jnday]

How many starting QB's really have a guy back there "pushing" them?

That thought is absolute nonsense.

You get a 1st round QB behind romo and it's not helpful to the franchise.

It's instant quarterback controversy.

And you know it.

They sure don't need to find anybody to push him. His elevated play wouldn't be helpful at all.

Depends. Does he possess a good pash rush?

 

[jobberone]

Last year, Romo had a tendon taken from his back that was causing him problems. They put the tendon in his throwing arm so that he could get more velocity on his throws.

That's Caesar Romo the pitcher for the Colon's. Tommy John's great great great nephew twice removed.

Big deal we have two guys vying for the job. I would prefer two guys scrambling for a position than the head coach hanging out with the starting qb at a bunch of basketball games.

 

[tideh20heel]

If the 2 Lombardi's were the result solely because of E-Lie's play you would have a good point . . . . . . . . . .

Didn't say they were but he made some huge plays throughout there two runs. We can't even get in position to make a run.

 

[cml750]

LOL, I went back to work within a month of both of my back surgeries. That does not mean I was 100% or even close to it. I will never be 100% of what I was before my back injuries. I wish I could borrow Jone's crystal ball to find out what the winning Powerball numbers will be. Seriously, as a huge Romo fan, I hope he comes back 100% but as a person who has experienced the same injury and surgery twice, I really have my doubts.

 

[TheDude]

There is a lot of flippant certainties with Romo, Maybe he comes back 100%, but while he was good last year, his game changed. That's fine to a degree....but I dont want to Witness Brad Johnson 2.0

I'll have questions until I see Romo after a couple of games. Fingers crossed

 

[treykin32]

He must not have watched Romo in the 2012 game then.

I watched Tony Romo fight through being down early & coming back with the 3rd, 4th, & 5th wideouts in Washington.

It's such a cozy atmosphere. Sickening situation. When the page gets turned, perhaps the organization will get back to the basics. That's a top flight QB held to the appropriate standard with a continuous eye on grooming a backup to truly do the job if he goes down. I hesitate to say we will never win a super bowl with Romo because stranger things have happened. Romo is a solid QB but his skills are beginning to erode and we have no contingency plan. Weeden? PUHLEEASE...

This isn't just about Romo though. It is mostly about the HC that lacks the basic ability to outsmart opposing HCs.

Every documentary on Tom Landry features the fact that he didn't want to get too close to his players because it affected his objectivity. At this stage of Romo's career we need the organization to be as objective as possible regarding him. The stakes financially are just too high to allow personal relationships muddy the waters.

Excellent point!

When I look at his TD/INT ratio last year I don't see it.

We all know numbers never lie right?

 

[Bleu Star]

Excellent point!

Agree. Unfortunately, it will get lost in the annual shuffle.

 

[Bleu Star]

When I see Romo get up from that first hit (& it will happen..) I will feel much better about our opportunity to compete this year. He can get us 8-8. It takes a village to get beyond 8-8 though.

 

[CF74]

I'm done with the Romo talk good or bad, we'll know for certain by Game 5 if he's back, or officially done....

broken record just as boring

You romo haters always avoid the numbers because they embarrass you.
