I just don't see Shanahan even considering it with Jerra still running things. Shanahan is like Parcells in that he requires full control and knows that with Jerra around he won't get it

Forget the coaching spot.
You guys need a QB.

We need a Off coord who doesn't send the receivers out on 25yrd routes every play. We need a coord who will establish a run game. We need a coord that is not so predictable that the other teams know every play we are going to run. We need an offensive line that gives the QB more than 1 sec to throw the ball. If we get that, I think you see a different Tony Romo.

Hmmmm - you know, Romo now has 2 complete seasons under his belt. Comparing his first two seasons to Hall of Fame (2006) Troy Aikman's first two seasons: Aikman won exactly 8 games - Romo has 20+ wins not counting his half season of 2006. He also has 2 pro bowl selections.
As for records: 16 games with 300+ yards over Aikmans 13. 36 passing touchdowns over Danny Whites 29. First Dallas quarterback to throw over 4,000 years in a season. And tied with Aikman for 5 touchdown passes in one game. And this after 2 1/2 years on the job.

Personally I think Garret left a lot to be desired with his play calling this year. Added to the mix a front line that can't pass block nor open a lane for the running backs. And why even trade for Roy Williams if your not going to use him - waste of talent there.

Plenty of blame to go around for a team with this much talent.

As a fan since 1962 through the good and bad - well there is always next year - hopefully.

My assessment is purely subjective. I just don't see the skills that Aikman had.

I agree. Romo is no Aikman. I just dont think he's as bad as people think.

Better to go to the dance, and at least have a chance, then be a flower on the wall, just watchin it all,

Rock Star · 01-04-2009, 08:45 PM

Yes..We need O-Line and 2ndary D..

Rock Star · 01-04-2009, 09:21 PM

im with ya bro...

Rock Star · 01-05-2009, 12:45 AM

Romo moves better than Aikman but doesnt throw better right now. Give him a solid O-Line and time to throw and any QB can look like a star. I think we need to start with the coaching. Jones knows what he's doing or they wouldnt have 5 rings. He'll do the right thing im sure. I would love to start with getting rid of TO.

That would make him 3 for 3. It's amazing that the most talented WR (IMO) in the game can be such a negative to a TEAM.

Rock Star · 01-07-2009, 11:04 PM

Cant wait til they release TO

white_s2k · 01-07-2009, 11:31 PM

I know I'm in the minority here, but I hope TO stays on the team..

He's an unbelievable talent, and his outbursts and temper tantrums only happen when we're playing like garbage. The head coach sure as hell isn't going to yell at the team and light a fire under them so someone has to. All the crap this season about the WR meeting with Garrett was not made public by TO, it was leaked by someone else in the Cowboys locker room. You didn't here all of this BS last year when we were 13-3.

Rock Star · 01-07-2009, 11:56 PM

well iu think TO is very talented but not good for the Cowboys..He is a major distraction and we would be better off without him..its not like we are lacking good receivers..we need to sink more money in our defense and offensive line imo, let some of the TO $$ go else where..

white_s2k · 01-08-2009, 12:01 AM

I can't argue that we need help with the O-line and defense, but if we get rid of TO I hope it's for the right reasons.

rack04 · 01-08-2009, 09:19 AM

I think Romo should go before TO.

No way!??! Romo was terribly banged up this year. Elway, both Mannings, and plenty other QBs have taken awhile to win the "big game." No Romo and we're screwed for years. Remember Quincy Carter!!
