They need to try and hire Romo

[BHendri5]

For the OC job, or at least consulting to help out Dak and Kellen Moore, heck eve Linehan. Romo is a natural. He always said that when he retired he wanted to be an OC. Now I know he is enjoying the booth, but I bet they can get him to come out of the booth if they offered the OC job to him.
But this season right now I would see if he would be willing to help Dak out with the things that I use to see him do at Training camp to work on his accuracy, to understand the different nuances of passing and the offense as well as reading defenses. I do not want Dak to be another one of those QBs that can run but does not know how to read the defense, and read it with some accuracy and speed, I also want him to learn how to manipulate the defense as Romo did. Romo has a very very high football IQ, in fact I believe he had the highest IQ than any QB that is playing now. I believe Romo would also be able to help Kellen Moore. Right now I do not think that Moore knows how to coach, he is learning on the fly(OJT), he knows how to play the position and what he sees when he is on the field but I do not think he is able to convey it to his QBs right now.

Upgrade time.

 

[Praxit]

..in time perhaps. Romo seems to love the Radio job.

 

[erod]

Good gawd.

So, you think Romo is going to trade a $5 million a year job that he works about 25 hours a week on......for an 80-hour-a-week job for $500K and never see his family?

Yeah, probably. I wonder how much Gruden likes coaching right now?

 

[CowboyWay]

If garrett doesn't get fired at the end of this season (and thats a BIG if), Kellen Moore will be fired. Even Romo mentioned how awkward the guy who got beat out in the QB competition is now his coach. Plus the fact that Dak has regressed tremendously this year, Kellen Moore is as good as done.

Oh hell no.

He can dry his tears with that Brincks truck of $ the Raiders dropped off at his house.

Duh.

I mean, who wouldn't?

Trade a cushy job for a less paying grinding job that takes you away from your young family? Hell yea!

 

[Pantone282C]

Wishful thinking.

 

[BHendri5]

Yep. I do think he would do that. Why should I doubt what he has said he wanted to do once he retired

 

[Richmond Cowboy]

Yep. I do think he would do that. Why should I doubt what he has said he wanted to do once he retired

Was that before or after he was offered the lead CBS analyst role for 5mil/yr?

 

[darthseinfeld]

People need to look at this realistically

 

[DallasEast]

Romo gets the repeated question asking if he would ever return to Dallas as quarterback, which deserves Romo's eyerolls and/or smirks for good reason, but does anyone ask him if he would return to Dallas under any other circumstances too? Romo would roll his eyes and flash that corner grin smirk equally as well but I am curious if extra nonsense has been directed at him publicly?

 

[bklab]

I believe Romo's passion for football will eventually overcome the plush position of a color commentator. As others have said, the guy is natural and coming back in some type of coaching capacity would give him his "fix" while possibly getting that ring he absolutely deserves. It's not IF, but when. I'd say give him another 2-3 years in the booth, and he'll be going stir crazy to get back on the field, sidelines, studying film, and fulfilling his desire to teach the game.

 

[CATCH17]

Romo hit the lottery and these NFL coaches have big Ego's and you can never tell them their way is not the best way.

Why do you think Garrett has been so reluctant to change with monumental amounts of evidence that his way is no longer the way.

Give him a Jon Gruden type deal and he would take it.

 

[flosho]

I was gonna make a separate thread but I might as well put it here since Romo brought it up during the game...

He made comments early in the game that Dallas was doing a lot of what KC did play calling wise and that it was working very well.

Pretty easy to see that if we steal another teams plays and execute we will end up much better than if we run our boring predictable plays all game long.

 

[aria]

He would be the best OC evvvvvvvvvvvvvver!

 

[DallasEast]

Has anyone pondered a scenario where Romo does eventually try coaching as a career but does so anywhere but Dallas? Romo does have a Jedi strong football IQ so coaching cannot be automatically ruled out as a future possibility but I highly doubt he would ever accept any position (coaching or otherwise) offered by Dallas after the events of November 2016.
