OK, Sonny.

Since you are so convinced that Dallas should part ways with Romo, why not send him to Buffalo?

We have skill position players, and unlike Dallas, Romo wouldn't have such huge pressure on him.

Plus, we could send you Ryan Fitzpatrick- a guy who you guys could meld into a less mistake-prone player.

Dallas parting ways with Romo, if that happens? I'll gladly ask for him in Buffalo.

I think Romo would fit well in Buffalo and I'd root for him to do well. I don't hate the guy. He came a long way from an undrafted free agent to an NFL caliber qb. I wouldn't want Ryan Fitzpatrick as a starter in Dallas. I wouldn't mind him as a backup though. The Cowboys need to start thinking about their future. Their defense is prettyy good right now. They need to fix that OL, get a new qb and get a new coach. Garrett is awful. 2nd and 1 with about 1:20 left in the game and he throws it 3 straight times. Hey Garrett, pick up the 1st down first.

I wouldn't, he throws a lot of interceptions and is noodle armed and doesn't win games, but he is still better than some other QBs.

He can throw TDs, he has 15 on the season wich is 6th overall. He has nine interceptions which is only 1 more than Eli Manning and Drew Brees. They had the bye yesterday so I am sure that has a little bit to do with it. His YPG are really low though but they got to good running backs so he really doesn't need to throw a lot. His QB rating of 86.1 isn't really terrible either. I don't think Dallas would want him or his big sallary and he is no where near as good as Tony Romo in the long run either.

Romo is average. I can't consider a QB good who has missed the playoffs and team currently has a losing record.

I did think his career would take a turn for the better in 2010 but it went backwarkds

I'd say above average, but not elite.

Slightly above average if he has more INT's than TD passes

Tony Romo would be a much better QB if he was playing behing a better O-Line and if he had a coach who would call the appropriate plays at the appropriate times and ran a system that used his strengths!

I'm not going to use the O-line as an excuse because there are times when he does have time to throw and he still throws a INT lol

The whole team would do better with a new head coach. I can't believe how many blow average coaches Jerry hires. Norv Turner's probably next.

That's about what he is. He's a good QB but not a great qb. After starting for 7 years, you'd think he would be more football smart. On the other hand he's still probably the smartest player on the offense which is a sad state.

I would not want him as a starter. He probably can be okay for a backup.

When a QB has more INT's than TD passes then most times the team will have a losing record and that's exactly what we have LOL

I'd pick up Fitzpatrick over John Skelton anyday. Skelton has Larry Fitzgerald on his team and still only has a 50% completion percentage.

So, Romo is having another ****ty season. Atleast compared too the elite. That being said he's still a lot better than some. After the season i'm seeing Eli have once again though. I am ready to put him in my top 5.

Yeah, well either way it should be a close one. I like Eli better than Ben. So, I want the Giants too win. But not too particulary concerned either way. Let's go Packers!!!
