Talking Cowboys 3.14 (Romo)

[ActualCowboysFan]

LOL wut? It is march 15th. The 2017 league year started March 9th.

/s

I think Denver or Houston would easily ship a 7th for Romo right now. I think Jerry is holding out for a much higher pick.

A seventh are you kidding me? Let him rot in dallas. We hold all the cards not Houston or Denver. Like Jerry said he doesn't have to release or trade him for a lousy 5M cap space.

Uh, do you know what month we're in currently? lol

Why would you ask me that? I just said Dak hasn't seen March as a Cowboy before... Would that not tell you it's March?

As long as he's still seeing days on the calendar that he hasn't seen before as a Cowboy, he's still a rookie.

You can have your own definition if that makes you feel better. Either way by your definition come May he will be a 2nd year player which does not change my position that he is a returning starter and by any definition is consider a vet.

Pi r squared

THOSE AREN'T PIES, ******!!!!!! THOSE ARE EVIL DISGUISES FOR STEW BAKED IN DOUGH!!!!!!!!

Dak hasn't even won a playoff game.

Let it rest

Go Cowboys

 

[DeaconBlues]

Which is strange because he was pro-Romo all season long...even leading up to the playoff game. He was even opposed to seeing what Romo had to offer in the final game against the Eagles because he wanted him fresh for the playoff game...because he didn't need to see anything out of Romo. He knew that Tony would be playing at a Pro-bowl level.

Fast forward to yesterday, and you're right. He's ripped off his #9 jersey, Hulkamania-style, and acted like Romo was chopped liver. "Who's going to sign him?" "Where's he going to start?". Really, Mick? Have you watched any other teams besides Dallas? You really think Tony is going to allow himself to be relegated to a back-up behind Dak?

At least Broaddus will admit when he's wrong. Sorry for the rant, folks. I've always had, and expressed, my disdain for everything Mickey Spags.

I agree; for some reason, the Romo goodbye video offended Mick.

Romo didn't say goodbye. He said thank you for the support and we will see what happens.

You don't like Chicken Pot Pies! What is this world coming too!!!!

 

[NumOneQB]

So Spangola comes in after the fact and starts pointing fingers at who was wrong? It's easy to be 100% correct when you're reporting yesterday's news today.

 

[DeaconBlues]

Romo didn't say goodbye. He said thank you for the support and we will see what happens.

If someone tells me thanks in that manner, it's a goodbye.

 

[DeaconBlues]

You don't like Chicken Pot Pies! What is this world coming too!!!!

I do like it. It's just not pie. Period. End of discussion.

When I was a kid, my Grandma became disgusted because my Mom stated she was coming by with a pie. I cried like a little girl.

It wasn't pie.

 

[CyberB0b]

Mickey is a hack.

You can't debate a Romo Lover.

I feel ya. My cousin is one and our conversations leave me with my head hurting. We talk at least every other day.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

It's simply stupid to release Romo for nothing.

Trade him or he's the backup. Dak is one bad hit from us having a 2015 season all over.

Plus it's not like saving the cap space means we become players in free agency.

What's stupid is paying your backup $14m and in doing so not taking advantage of a pro bowl QB who is under cost control.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Mickey's right on this one, though. Everybody jumped at the two unsubstantiated twitter rumors that the Cowboys were going to release Tony at the start of free agency, and that wasn't the plan. Jerry outright said not to listen to the noise, and that turned out to be the case.

People have been worked up since the start of FA over this, but the reality is, until somebody offers a trade, we have no incentive to release Tony prior to the end of the draft. There's no scenario where Tony doesn't come into training camp and beat out a Tom Savage or a Trevor Siemian or even a Blake Bortles or whichever stiff they expect to trot out in SF or NYJ. In a worst-case scenario, Tony's going to be free to pick his team at that point. Prior to that, there's no reason not to hold out until we get our best offer. Right now, the loser in the Tony-derby still can look to the draft or at a guy like Cutler or Fitzpatrick or Daniels. That might not be the case in May, so, if they want the lock the QB position down for 2017, it's in their interest to do it at the league meetings here in 10 days or whatever.

The only problem is, I think DEN might be serious about sitting tight with Siemian. And I expect Tony only wants one of two teams if he could pick them himself. That means the Texans have to come off the spot, which so far they don't want to do. I'd make them pay for the luxury by sitting through the draft and seeing what they come up with.

Then again, I'd be ok with letting Tony play for his job in Dallas in camp.

From listening to the media I am fairly sure they had Dalrymple or Romo's agent float that.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

the answer is always pie.

Cake is better.

Try talking to a "Dak lover."

Logic and reason go out the window. This is true of some "Romo lovers" as well, but at least from what goes on at this site, and places like facebook (I know, it's not the place for intelligent debate), the Romo people generally put forth calm rational arguments whereas the Dak people just throw hate at Romo and try to tear him down as a player 95% of the time.
