Here is what I persoanlly think about the situation, I am really happy to see Bledsoe watching Romo from the sidelines. I have nothing against Bledsoe but he is not that good. Bledsoe and Brunell for that matter, were at the end of their careers when Dallas and Washington got them. We all know that if it wasn't for their ties with the coaches, they wouldn't get the job. Seriously, those two guys were never GREAT, just good, and they have only gotten worse.
The other issue is Dallas needs to find out if Romo is the quarterback of the future or not. If not Dallas would need to trade up in the draft to get Quinn or whoever is the top QB prospect. Let's face there has been many first round pick QBs that didn't make it big in the NFL, it's just not for them, college and NFL are different and we all know that(like Marcus Vick who is a WR/QB now, Robinson from Penn who is a RB, Matt Jones who is a WR now).
Benching Bledsoe was a smart decision even if Dallas loses the remaining games and I think the same thing should be done with Burnell, but again it is just my opinion.
