Good stuff. I wish Brad Sham would do TV games.

Ten Years ago today Tony Romo got his chance to start and play the entire game at seattle in the preseason. He played well and the team won. Time goes by too fast.



and here is the play with the call from Brad Sham and Coach Joe

Ugh Crayton. I can never forgive him for that drop against the Giants. Ever

Cowboy network still has the same graphics from 2006... not good

Last night I was thinking(hoping and wishing a bit) about could history repeat it self ten years later... with Dak being Romo and Romo being Bledsoe?

I was on the Romo wagon in 2006, it wouldn't hurt my feelings if Dak were to become the 2nd coming of something(talent), and his play made it ridiculous for the coaches not to have him on the field!

Wishful thinking with Jones's and Garrett: Dak could be the next Brady and this team would still ride Romo.

Sadly enough, Romo was forced to rot on the bench for 3 years while we strolled out the likes of Testicle Verde. Im sure some will say he needed that time to mature.

Crazy that it's been that long, hopefully he'll get to go out on top.

This was in 2006 when Romo replaced Bledsoe later in the RS.

Look at what we used to have at OL holy moly

If you want to be really shocked watch this short video from Thanksgiving Day, 2011.

Nothing will show how much Romo has held this whole organization together with duct tape than watching this drive against the Dolphins. The offensive line is horrific and gets absolutely abused on virtually play. Every completion is a miracle and by the skin of our teeth. Why this drive is labeled as "amazing" on You Tube is because he took us down the field and scored.

2018 maybe
That'd be sweet
You never know

As for now, Romo is light years better than Dak

Watching that makes me appreciate Romo greatly, and miss Laurent Robinson tremendously.

I have never cheered an int from a Cowboys qb... but when Bledsoe threw that pick in the end zone against the Giants I had the biggest smirk on my face :)

Bring on Romo baby!!!

Last night I was wishing I could win the lottery. Some of you guys need to tap the breaks on a rookie 4th rounder doing anything. If he turns into a moderate backup consider it a success

Great point! I forgot all about Robinson.

I don't know what it was but he and Romo were on the same page from the very first pass and his career was never the same after he left (although I don't blame him for cashing in).
