Video: Stephen A: Jerry Jones wouldn’t treat Tony Romo like he is treating Dak Prescott

[Whyjerry]

Why would you treat a top 5 QB the same as an average QB?

Was Romo ever top 5? Maybe all his deep playoff runs has me a little confused.

 

[Whyjerry]

I hate Stephen A but I can’t disagree here.

What bothers me the most is that he paid Zeke. Zeke?!?

 

[408Cowboy]

Has he sat in his booth during a George Strait concert?

What's a George Strait?

Why would you treat a top 5 QB the same as an average QB?

Well considering one of the biggest knocks on Dak is his inability to win playoff games or take the team deep into the playoffs, then in that regard in 4 years Daks already accomplished half of what Romo did his entire career.

 

[aria]

Romo was above average!

Until the game mattered.

 

[Daillest88]

Lol Romo was and is so underrated. Of course he wouldn’t treat romo this way. Romo with an injured back would be a top 7 QBs in the league right now

Jerry Jones: Stephen, Skip.... my office, NOW!

 

[bewp7]

would these shows even exist if it wasn’t for the cowboys, lebron, and the lakers? they don’t talk about anything else...the chiefs just won the super bowl and they were talking about dak the very next day.

You know exactly what Dak is asking for? Even if you do, you'd then need to go and see what Romo's camp was asking for because it was more than he actually got.

We can ballpark it. The salary cap is around $200m next year. Dak wants 30 to 35m. That's in the 15 to 18% range. Is that the same as what Romo got?

Dak turned down 32, but I think it was mostly about the guaranteed money.

 

[Swanny]

Didn't Jerry make the decision to go with Dak instead of Romo?

Somebody get a rope.

Whoa!!!!! That's the king of country music!! Lol

Bottom line is that Jerry Jones did not want Dak Prescott. Jerry Jones was building this team for Tony Romo. Jerry Jones does not believe in Dak Prescott. Dak Prescott messed up Jerry Jones Country Club. Dak was not selected to receive Country Club membership like Romo.

Again, here are the facts:
Romo did not play out his rookie deal and actually got paid before he won the starting job. He got an extension to his rookie contract in 2006 2 year deal to 2007 collecting about $27M. Romo made more than Dak in the 4th year of his career by over $1M and he only played as starter 1 season with 0 playoff wins (that was more than 10 years ago).

Stephen A Smith, who I can not stand, is absolutely right.

[Proof]

No name screams Good Ol Boy quite like Antonio Ramiro Romo...

Don’t be naive

I always hoped Romo and the team would have gotten farther than they did, I was a little biased (him being part Mexican and all) unfortunately it wasn’t in the cards for them

 

[Diehardblues]

Everyone needs to turn the dial and make Stephen A go away. He’s a major troll!

 

[ShortRound]

 

[TNCowboy]

Well, it makes sense that he wouldn't, Romo was a much better player.

 

[Javier]

Lol Romo was way better than Dak
