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.

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

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".

So basically if Dak craps the bed and completely reverses his performance from the whole season... then he should be yanked. Ok, brilliant analysis. I'm guessing if Zeke wets himself and fumbles 3 times we should put Morris or McFadden in too.

Dak will be fine.

I didn't say anything about the read option, did I. I said bootleg.

If you guys are going to completely take over this thread with your imaginary QB controversy BS, at least allow others to comment without puffing out your chest.




You know, there was a Dak vs. Romo thread that we started around week 3. It would be nice if y'all would bump that and head over there so we can actually ENJOY this ride we are on and have some legitimate Cowboys vs. Packers talk. The few comments that people have made regarding the upcoming game get lost in the QB talk.

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.

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.

Fasano dropped a pass that hit him in the face at the goal line, ended up in a fg. Crayton dropped a 3rd down pass that could have gone for 60, maybe a td. Punt, Giants score.

Romo was running for his life the whole game.

15 penalties on Cowboys.

Defense blew crucial tackles at critical times.

Romo gets such a bad rap for this loss, it's such a joke. He played good, if not great in that game, his teammates let him down.

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.

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 Basketball is only 40 minutes and 2 halves vs 48 minutes and 4 quarters... can't compare.

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.

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!

Agree with the clock comment. Also, in the NFL, they start the clock running even on out of bounds plays when it's outside like 5 min left, I think.

They gotta get the clock running.

I think they could also go to the challenge system on replays like the NFL. College bogs down so much for replays.

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.

Green Bay is bluffing. Saying he's going to try and practice on Saturday forces Dallas to game plan for him AND without him.

College starts the clock on OOB plays also now. Up until some point in each half. I agree with the poster that said the challenge system could be fixed in college. Definitely more bog downs with college replay.

The Cowboys darn near won that game, if I remember correctly, so I am not sure if that even would happen.

Darn near won't cut it for Jerry. He's not gonna live forever.

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

You got me.

Romo is only going in if Dak physically cannot play.

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.

2 weeks of no hits.

Everyone that's not suspended should play. Injuries not an issue.

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.

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

Exactly. If we get down quick early, then likely Rodgers is just carving up our defense. At that point who's playing QB for us won't make a whole lot of difference. Now if Dak goes out and throws picks on 4 straight drives, then they should think about it. But considering he's only thrown 4 picks all year, it would be surprising to say the least.
