Romo and Dak just have very different playing styles. But didn't Weeden look pretty good when he stepped into games until he actually had to start real games?

This team right now is built for Romo. I think we could be lucky enough to have a Favre/Rodgers situation. As long as Romo doesn't waffle like Favre, I think he is here as long as he wants to be just like Favre would've been with GB until he started wavering.

That being said, I thought Romo looked more mature and precise in the pocket than ever. Brady-esque even.

Weeden didn't look anything like what we've seen from Dez. In fact, no QB has looked this good in a long time. We all know it's preseason and Dak has a lot to learn, but it's hard to believe he can play THIS WELL and not be the real deal. Time will tell. As far as Romo, this is absolutely his team and Dak knows and accepts this fact. It's a great situation for us.

I agree. He definitely seems to have the Dakup QB spot by the short and curlies, but he's in the learning mode of the expanded playbook he's going to be exposed. Dak has enough pressure as it is. I'm as super excited as a lot of you guys are, though, and with good reason.

Yeah, yeah...I know it is pre-season...doesn't matter, just a good time to take lumps and learn, but....I just hope he comes out of the dress rehearsal w/Seattle without coughing up the ball too much and hurting his confidence (TDs be damned...just don't throw 2-3 picks). Pete the Cheat likes to play Wilson and the 1's well into the 3rd Qtr and make that game his personal Super Bowl. It's a good challenge, better than what we saw with LA and MIA, but I just hope to see him take it up a level because that team in C-link will be looking to expose a rookie.

Regardless: Romo, Dak, and more importantly the team, look to be in a very, very good QB situation right now compared to where they were several months ago.

I'm sure Dak realizes he's in for the challenge of his life when he takes on that wicked Seattle defense. Be assured Romo will do right by Dak and tell him all he needs to know to give Seattle holy hell. Listen carefully to the man, keep focused and go get 'em, Dak.
