One reason Bledsoe couldn't hook up with Owens was because it took too long for the ball to get to him, and that's because Bledsoe doesn't get the ball out soon enough. At least, that what it seems to me. I believe Owens would be 90% better if Romo was throwing to him because Owens could depend on the ball getting there when it needed to be.

Hos tries to so hard to not come off as a knee jerk fan about anything, an admirable trait, but sometimes the knee needs to be jerked in full force.
Thank you, but that's not what I'm doing. I appreciate it though.

Of course you can't. You are governed by your emotions. I'm not. I'm not crazy about either guy, but the fact of the matter is, Bledsoe has outplayed Romo. A very big part of me wants to see Romo because I think we still don't know if he can do the job or not. I just don't think he's earned it.
You are governed by your irrational dislike of Romo. Every time his name is brought up you say something bad. It's been pretty blatant this year. You don't like him. I get it. I just don't know why.

Here is the thing about Romo though.
What has Philip Rivers been doing while in San Diego before he started....
Pretty much the same thing as Romo.
If San Diego can win with Rivers why can't the Cowboys win with Romo?

They have an all world RB and a Defense better than ours.

The last thing we need right now is a Brett Favre wannabe, to come in and start slinging it around.

No thanks

I saw him play better than Bledsoe for the majority of the preseason.

At the very least, Romo could have run awat from some of those blitzes and avoided the sack.
I don't agree with that at all. In fact it is 180 degrees the other way. Even the media who love a QB controversy admitted that Bledsoe sowed up the starting job by outplaying Romo.

You're referring to just one quarter of one game (week 2 of the preseason).

Hostile-

Do you actually think Bledsoe can get us to the playoffs, and not only that win big games on the road?

You know very well teams are going to blitz the crap out of him.

You think Bledsoe can win us the Superbowl?

I want to hear you say yes, or else Its time for Romo

I would rather lose every game for the rest of the season and allow Romo to develop than to win 5-7 more games this year knowing that Bledsoe cannot win a pressure game to save his life. At least I can understand Romo making rookie mistakes. There is no excuse for the type of poor decisions that Bledsoe makes at clutch times. I finally realize know what the NE and Buffalo fans have been talking about all this time - and it really sucks to have to go through it as well.

With Romo starting at least we will know if we potentially have our QB of thefuture or focus on drafting one early next year.

Once again, I don't dislike Romo. No matter how many times you say I do it won't change that fact. He hasn't earned the job. If he does, I will be firmly in his corner. Bank on that. I'm not a big fan of Bledsoe. Ask the guys over at that Bills forum who came here with their Bledsoe is a sure fire HOFer. I just don't want to hand the job to someone who hasn't done anything to earn it yet.

For crying out loud Parcells, play Romo. Better to have an erratic quarterback on the way up than one on the way down.

And how is that nay differently then every game so far. It isn't like this game just exposed Bledsoe as a QB that can't handle the blitz. The difference being the eagles defense had amples amount of more talent than our o-line and we couldn't adjust to make up for it.

As of now, my knee jerk reaction is with Romo. He should have put him in with 10 minutes left, when it was evident Bledsoe was not geting any protection. And he could not excape the Eagles' pass rush.
Just an overall poor performance. Maybe I will feel better at NOON next Sunday at Kick Off against the lowly Texans.

No. I think our defense can get us to the playoffs if our OL can keep either QB upright so he can utilize our weapons. Today, the Eagles beat that forumla. I tip my hat to them.
