Re: Romo out 4 Weeks
Word is that he'll return in time to play us at FedEx.
The Cowboys play the Rams, Tampa, and the Giants in the time Romo will be out.

Re: Romo out 4 Weeks
Holy Jeebus!
That's a pretty big deal. Dallas has been trying to give games away, and been successful two out of the last three weeks, with Romo. Without him, they could be poised for a freefall... |

Re: Romo out 4 Weeks
Brad Johnson will probably be able to handle the Rams in all likelyhood, but they probably aren't better than the Bucs or Giants even when Romo is healthy. I see us creating a two game lead on them in the standings going into our game against them, as long as we handle our business.

Re: Romo out 4 Weeks
With Romo out, the Dallas turnovers will be cut in half.
While Brad Johnson is aging, he's a suitable fill-in while Romo gets his finger taken care of. If anything, this should mean TO will get more looks in the offense...

Re: Romo out 4 Weeks
He's got 9 other fingers, I think she'll be fine.

Re: Romo out 4 Weeks
While I agree that Brad Johnson is a suitable fill in, he isn't half the playmaker that Romo is. And the turnovers will most likely drop, but so will the scoring offense.

Re: Romo out 4 Weeks
Or have some kind of effect on his throwing motion, like when Favre hurt his thumb and was off for like a whole year.

Re: Romo out 4 Weeks
If Brad J does good, it could start a qb controversy of sorts there. I was reading the dallas press online after the game and tony was taking all sorts of heat.

Re: Romo out 4 Weeks
i think the ish is hitting the fan right now in the big D . . . glad the skins were the team that brought division and angst among them cowboys . . .
cowboy fans are pissed, romo's luck and that shit eater grin is wearing off, TO is starting to call people out, theyre losing, goddell is investigating pacman . . . i love it and its well deserved oh and wade is gone next year if he even lasts this season, people rightfully want his head. honestly a fight in the locker room would be the cherry on top. go skins! lol wheres sandtrapp to tell us TO has been a model citizen, romo is an all-pro qb and pacman so far has not been a distraction? |
