The fact that this has to be a consideration going forward is the reason I hate the salary cap.

You should be granted cap space to keep iconic, franchise players reaching the end of their era. Specifically, QB's who have spent their entire careers with one franchise.

As much as you have to consider it, just given his cap numbers, I still wouldn't do it. I haven't looked at his contract really, but I think most of his guaranteed money was up, what like next year or something? I think next year is probably going to be his last year as a "starter", I wonder if he'd renegotiate his contract to pay him more in 2018-2020 than 2017, so we can acquire some more talent for what will probably be his last full time gig in Dallas next year.

I'm still keeping him regardless, just with the young talent we have, and the firepower on offense, we're basically guaranteed relevancy even if we don't do anything at all to his contract.

Having two QB's is such a blessing. We should be bragging about having two Quarterbacks better than a lot of team's primary starter, not debating who's better.

I think his guaranteed money is already paid up after this season.

Soooo does Philly even blitz that much on Sunday? Romo would carve them up.

Yeah. Except when teams like Washington went all out blitz on him he didn't. He took multiple sacks holding ball instead of throwing short.

Except on 3rd and long. Then he threw short to witten.

it would be boring of you did so. I am kidding on Romo - sort of. If it's me, I keep him through 2017, but sometimes you get a great offer you can't refuse.

Yep, he's the savior who's never saved anything.

But the whole point of this thread is not really to boast about Romo it's about starting a fight, saying anyone should burn in hell even jokingly over a football opinion should be an insta-ban.

In fairness, he did say COWBOY hell. Really, how bad could Cowboy hell be?

Now, Eagle hell....I shudder at the thought....

dak don't even know what all he's doing yet and we still winning even dominated some games consistently scoring on opening drives man thats what i like ... Romo is probably this generations Danny White back in the day very good player just cldnt win a ship but obviously Romo is better than d white but .....

Dan looks like he's gonna be this generations Aikman imo i think we about to go on a run and win some super bowls not a super bowl in my humble opinion with Dak.... but i don't want to trade romo this year.... but after the season!!!

Sam bradford was worth a 1st round pick ijs.......No telling what romo is worth which will help our overall team get stronger

and then package some picks to get #1 pick next year and get Myles Garrett and stop playing and lets win these ships

hopeful thinking last statement

I would keep him too, with the history of not having a decent back up QB, better to eat the cap space and have a great QB situation.
But that is so long off, will just wait and see, not sure why so many getting all up in arms over it now.
Especially since the trade deadline has passed.

the only way he stays is if takes a big pay cut to 2yr/14m to be the back-up

Depends which portal of Cowboy's hell we're talking about here. If it's post-95', two decades of futility Cowboy's hell, then I shudder to relive those horrors for eternity.

Its older data, but from 2008-2012, when under pressure, Tony posted the 4th highest QB rating over that 5 year span at 70.7. Rodgers was #1 at 78.1

He saved us from 5-11 and took us to 8-8 with a couple of winning seasons sprinkled in but very little success in December and January. Not exactly untradable or a someone we should be scared to move on from.

If a team like CLE or NYJets called with a serious offer he might be gone.

I could see the Jets...or even Miami, if the rumor that they may give up on Tannehill is true. Also, if Palmer hangs it up, AZ too.

But even though I get why Dak is playing and they may stay with him, I believe Dallas' ceiling is higher with Romo through 2017. jmo of course.

I doubt they'd trade him without his ok. But if he wants to play next year, that may be his only option.
