Wait, this idiot thinks Dak is gonna be on a short leash?
He would have to throw 3 AWFUL picks and look lost to get pulled.
God dammit y'all are terrible at reading. I said he should be. Should. Not will.

You did say "should", but then you continue to try to convince us that Romo is the best option, which leads us to think you really hope "will".Reginald Cousins said:PatAg said:

I didn't say anything about the read option, did I. I said bootleg.Reginald Cousins said:jr15aggie said:Reginald Cousins said:

Wrong. Teams quit even looking for him to keep because he kept 1 in 20.

You are correct, Romo did have a 13-3 record one season. I was thinking he went 12-4. You want to know what Romo did with a 13-3 record in his playoff start? He lost. Not a Romo hater by any stretch, I just think it's an awful idea to pull the hot guy for the injury prone player who hasn't played a meaningful play in 2 years.

Dallas lost that game because of Patrick Crayton, not Tony Romo.
the end of the first half drive was a killer in that game. Dallas' D was totally useless that series. As if it was the Giants 11 vs the Air.Quote:
Defense blew crucial tackles at critical times.
College Basketball is only 40 minutes and 2 halves vs 48 minutes and 4 quarters... can't compare.Ag12thman said:
I don't get how professional games are about 3 to 3.5 hours long and amateur (college) games are 4 to 4.5 hours long. Makes no sense to me. College basketball games are quite a bit shorter in length than professional basketball games, no?

College Football could help themselves with getting rid of the clock stopping on first downs, and shortening the halftime. But what really extends these games is the style of offense. Anytime teams run as many plays as are being run these days, the game goes longer. I don't like it, but not sure how to fix it. Would have to be something radical like starting the clock when the ball is set after incomplete passes.
The doc on GMFB said that the ribs that he broke would probably prevent him from playing, not as a pain tolerance thing, but because broken ribs can break even more and puncture something important.jr15aggie said:
Hadn't seen anything on ESPN, etc... but finally heard on the radio that Jordy Nelson has 2 fractured ribs. Yikes!
It would be a brilliant stroke of irony, though, if Jordy gets high as a kite on "legal" drugs and is able to play while Gregory sits on the sideline for smoking a natural herb!

The Cowboys darn near won that game, if I remember correctly, so I am not sure if that even would happen.BassCowboy33 said:
The only thing that'll get Dallas to replace Dak is if he makes multiple catastrophic errors early that turn into Green Bay touchdowns. If Dallas does what they did against SF in 94-95 NFCC, then you might see Romo.

Very false statement. I assure you with an injury to Dak he goes in before Sanchez.

Just read that Mo will be ready to go. That's awesome!
Unless in forgetting somebody, all of our starters and major contributors are ready to go. About as healthy as you can be this time of year.

I remember reading a thing a while ago about the amount of abuse NFL players take throughout a season, and what they put their bodies through to get ready to play each week. Basically having anyone even remotely rested and not beaten up at this time of year is a huge deal. That could really help defensively, and with Zeke not taking a weeks worth of hits. Hopefully it's about health and not rust with guys like Claiborne.

I agree Romo will proably not play. However, if Dak has a horrible first half, which I personally can't see happening, Romo should be an option. Again, I hope it doesn't happen, but Romo is the best "backup" in the league, and should be used if needed.
Quote:
He should. But at the same time if we're doing what we should be doing on offense (running the ball, letting the o-line take over), then dak shouldn't even be in a position to have a terrible first half. He should be operating just like he has all season
