Should have traded Romo to Raiders. Would put us in a good position to get Luck. Its looking like the Rams will have the #1 pick. They've recently drafted Bradford - they will be interested in trading down for more picks to fill all the holes on their roster. Rams would take 2 x #1 picks plus a couple of replaceable players (Spears & Bennett?) for the #1 pick in a heartbeat.
People on this thread talk about what losing Romo would do to this season. Answer is very little - this team is rebuilding and will not win the SB, so it doesnt matter.
Anyway, there isnt a lot of difference between Romo & Kitna other than that Kitna is a little older. Both have similar backgrounds (small college), both are experienced starters. Romo has been luckly enough to be on slightly better teams than Kitna, hence the better stats. Kitna showed last season that when given the starting job, and the practice reps that go with it, he can do a reasonable job - his record was better than Romos last year. Kitna can fill in for the rest of the season and the first half of next season before making way for Luck.
If we do make it to the play-offs, which is possible due to being in a weak division, we've a better chance with Kitna. Romo isnt a good play-off QB. While Kitna hasnt much play-off experience, his performance in the World Bowl early in his career (in the era of good NFLE QBs ala Kurt Warner, Brad Johnson etc.), should leave no one in any doubt that he's the type of player who rises to the big occasion and can lead a team to victory.
