If anything they should release Romo. He has moments of greatness but...

I realize this is an unpopular statement.

As hard as it is to find a QB in this league?...Right after his pro bowl season?...You'd have to release every QB under those pretenses.

I hate the guy and it makes me sick to come to his defense but you're definitely off here.

I respect you're opinion but. If every QB had the offense Romo had/has, my pretenses wouldn't seem so far reaching.

With that said Dallas has never had a problem finding quality QB's

My point is if you release TO why not Romo? Who plays his position better?
TO came to Romo's rescue not the other way around.

Are you kidding me? It's not who plays his position better. One position is MUCH more important than the other. Look what happened when Romo was out of the line-up. The Cowboys offense wasn't even functionable. Cowboys will be fine w/out TO. They still have good wr's in Williams, Crayton, Austin and Witten at TE.

Who was the last quality QB in Dallas after TA.

TO is a hard dude to figure out. Behind closed doors, teammates usually say he's a hard worker and a good teammate and presence in the locker room. But when that cameras rolling it's all about TO. He's sort of like Michael Westbrook in that regard, except no one really liked Westbrook.

I don't know if it's due to his injury, but I was not really that impressed with Romo this year. Still, I don't think they should release him. They should bring in a decent young backup QB though.

I bet that is NOT Jerra's plan, unless...maybe TJ

Speaking of Housh, I didn't realize he is as old as he his. He's 31. Not sure I would want to invest a big money deal in him after all.

Yeah, a lot of people seem to forget that

He's still a very productive NFL wr and probably will be the next 3 years.

I'm agree, but is he a guy you would want to give a big contract to? I'm not sure I would.

listening to a guy from some Fort Worth paper a m inute ago. According to him, T.O gets along with most of the team, but is having a problem with "The Homo", J. Witten, and some of the coaches

Speculative, but maybe TO wants out?

I don't know Hog, I just like his talent and would feel robbed as a fan of football if he was gone. Maybe I'm off here.

Not to get off subject but, it seems like we are willing to take a chance on Hall who has similar tendacies. At least TO is a proven great football player.

I like Hall too

Understood Smoot.

Would you give Owens any consideration as a Skin under any circumstances?

I know I wouldn't. Check out his path of destruction. He's a big no.
