Weeden, It is gonna be ok

[LandryFan]

If we can get Romo back and the rest of the boys around 5-4 i'll be happy and we'll be fine. Thinking we could potentially do better.

I have 6-3, but 5-4 is probably more realistic.

 

[Hoov]

I get your point, but he has started one game and played meaningful snaps in two others...kind of hard to draw conclusions from that. I don't know what he's going to be. I don't have high expectations, but I'm not throwing in the towel, either.

yes. and that one game was against one of the top defenses in the league. And if i remember correctly the run game was poor that day and some receivers also dropped balls from weedon. I think Dez dropped a pass that would have been a big play.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Being QB drafted in the first round means nothing anymore. There are far more 1st round QB busts than successes over the last decade. Weeden is what he is, and that's a backup QB.

Indeed. I get it that Weeden isn't elite, but to say he's lower than a crippled cricket's *** (thanks, JJ) without giving him a chance is hogwash.

Everyone is so worried about Weeden. Weeden is less of the issue than whether or not the defense and the Oline are going to be able to step up and carry this team. Weeden is the back up. He's there to not make mistakes.

I think this guy is a former first round pick for a reason.He has a better arm than Romo, really can make the throws.Tony Romo looked old like Peyton Manning is these days.I always wondered why Dallas kept Romo but yet rest of team got younger.Really it might be a changing of the guard.Weeden and our offense is the best in the NFC East.The other teams in the NFC East are so bad this year.Don't give up here we may still be a jugernaut later in the end of season.

Long term it is better for the Cowboys let Weeden play and see what he can do.Everybody says we need to draft a QB, guys this guys is a first rounder, higher than we usually get to pick.He might yet be the steal of the year.Our front office needs more credit, they really get it.Where are the Murray folks today he looked old today too.

It is gonna be ok.At the end of the day it is only a game.Last year my father in law was alive the Cowboys were 1-15.Didn't matter I enjoyed every minute I had with him.Remember to hug your loved ones life is short.And Weeden might be the next Romo you never know.

I don't get your logic regarding Romo being "old like Peyton Manning" as for Weeden he has the a better arm sure but he's not and never will be the QB that Romo is he did well given the circumstance in the Eagles game and he's the QB now for the foreseeable future until Romo gets back into the fold let's go Cowboys.

 

[Blackspider214]

You have convinced me. Let's just trade Romo while we can and hitch our wagons to Weeden...

 

[Denim Chicken]

I don't get your logic regarding Romo .

You are searching for something that isn't there.

That is true if he had to just play a game or 2. Well your gameplan for 8 weeks can't be to just not make mistakes. At some point, he will have to win us a game and make plays. Can he do that? So far his entire career points to no.

No knock against him. He has huge shoes to fill. But the fact remains he is not that good.

 

[EST_1986]

This guy isn't going to lead us to any victories but I think he can ride the waive to a couple as long as he isn't making stupid mistakes but this is one look Weeden were talking about

It sure seems that way with this OP.

Do I? I'm not at all. We are 2-0.

Just pointing out the idiocy of the OP.

He needs to get us 3 Wins out of the next 7. If he does that, he will have earned his paycheck and all the people, including myself, wanting him cut, will have been wrong;

Garrett and the coaching staff rolled the dice with the Weedster. So, were going to find out if it was the right choice.

This is his last chance.... Either you can do it Weedy, or you cant;


.................I think he can. Given the right playbook and the right guys around him. I think he is going to surprise us;

Its been a long, long time since we have had to get use to another QB guiding the Cowboys......

 

[JoeKing]

Weeden will be fine driving the bus until Tony gets back. No need to panic what so ever. The teams that need to panic are the giants and iggles that are still winless with their starting QBs. They have to be wondering what it will take to become relevant once again in this division.

I get it. Romo is Bledsoe and Weedon is Romo.

Buy are we lucky that Romo is done and we can get t playmaker in there!

 

[jrumann59]

The only thing promising fromt eh game yesterday is that he took off and ran when there was nothing down field. As long as he doesn't sit back there and wait and wait he should be fine.

Did you just wake up from a Coma? Romo had the highest QB rating in the NFL last season and was the leader on a spectacular comeback last week.

I hope Weeden has figured it out, but he was beyond terrible in his 1 start last season.

 

[rgcowboys]

With Weeden the Cowboys will need to rely on the run the ball, with a play action passes. I think the defense improves Cowboys go 5 and 2 or 4 and 3 in the next 7 games.

 

[Hoov]

Remember the announcers showing weedon just sitting there on the bench after Tony went out and them saying - shouldnt he be warming up and throwing the ball ?

In retorspect - thought it was kind of funny he was just chillin on the sideline and then once on the field he was like a robot. running the offense nice and calm and moving the chains like it was a normal day.
