romo out for 4 weeks

i just seen on sportscenter that tony romo is out for 4 weeks hope brad johnsons arm is not to rusty.

Well heck, that could throw a wrinkle into my fantasy team.

I think that will be a big blow to the cowboys season if Johnson isnt ready

If I'm not mistaken the same thing happend to Kurt Warner several years ago and he wasn't the same for a long time.

I think that you are right didnt it happen when he was still with the Rams then lost the job to Bulger?

I didnt think the cowboys would be very good this season anyway, but now i am thinking they maynot even make it into the playoffs.

Brad Johnson won a superbowl, don't forget that.

He isn't great, but he doesn't lose ball games for you. Maybe this will make the team rally and come together or something.

Or, you could be right and they miss the playoffs.

That is true he has won a SB, but i think there may be some rust on him. If Romo misses 4 games i look for the cowboys to be at best 1-3 not sure if the next 4 weeks has there bye week or not. Dallas this will be i think the 8th different starting quarterback? for Dallas since aikmen retired possibly more

I believe their bye is in the next four games, I could be wrong though.

Nope, it will be the tenth. Romo was the ninth.

You are right they have 3 more games then the bye

Sun, Nov 9 BYE

I would say 1-2 at best, but can not say the rams will not give them a fight since they did beat the skins.

I don't think Brad Johnson will hurt the Cowboys one bit...may help em. Romo puts up numbers, but what does he do when the pressure is on?

He cant handle pressure very well at all makes bad decisions but with the rust on johnson may be a tough few weeks. Last game he started was Dec. 17, 06 for the Vikings.

Desn't mean anything. He's a proven vet and he practices.

True, but is he going to be able to keep TO happy or is he not going to care what TO has to say? I think Romo listens to TO alot and tries to keep him happy and that is what causes them to lose sometimes.

Screw TO...ain't nobody gonna keep him happy. Best thing Dallas could do is trade him in the off season for a team player.

I agree i have been hearing him complaining the last three games, and then makes jason garrett have to make a game plan that gets him the ball weather its a end around or a pass play with double coverage.

Where has he ever been that he didn't start complaining and proceed to tear his team apart. Wonder why Parcells didn't want him?...there's your answer. That was clear from day one.

yep it is Jerry Jones was better off keeping Keyshawn Johnson instead of cutting him for TO. Atleast parcells was able to control keyshawn for the most part and keyshawn respected him un-like TO.

The day Keyshawn was let go, it was clear to me Parcells would leave.

Starting to think that Dallas shouldve kept Quinn when the got him a couple seasons back.

If they could have kept Bledsoe upright, he would have torched the opponent. When he was there Dallas had a shitty line.

Brady Quinn?

We got Felix instead of Quinn.

Quinn hasn't shown anything yet though. Hasn't had much of a chance to either though..

I was about to say i thought dallas traded that pick away and never actually had quinn

I know, but still probably ended up with Tashard Choice...watched him during pre-season and he's damn good, Felix is just a little better. Quinn IMO has the makings to be a great QB if given the shot, I have a feeling he will this season and will put Anderson on the bench.

Brad Johnson is comparable to Gus Ferrotte. Can step in and play the game ( a lot better imo) even in the case if he doesn't play for two years.

Frerotte can't carry Johnson's jock...

I dont know, he is getting up there in age. I hope you are right about him, cant afford to lose any games...esp with the Giants coming up. He can do it ONLY if the D steps up and without a doubt that O line cant play like it did against the Cards or he'll be killed. One thing has been bothering me this season is that Special teams D, its not too good-Look at the first kickoff yesterday...and I've been seeing teams return for really good yardage, that cant happen.

Brad Johnson aint bad at all, he aint the type of QB thats gon go out and throw for 350 yards either though. But, hes the type of guy that can manage a game very well and give you a chance to win, he wont cost ya too many games.

Rumor has Dallas may trade Detroit to get Kitna. Don't know if I like that or not. I respect Kitna, but I think Johnson can get the job done in the mean time.

I'd rather have Beck from Miami on my team than Kitna...still, what's wrong with Johnson?

Kitna is a little more mobile than Johnson and by the way Dallas played last night they need someone who can avoid the rush from the corners. I would still stick with BJ if I had a choice.

I don't have a problem with Johnson. The line will need to block a little better than they have been lately though.

IMO, the Cards have one of the better D-lines in the game. They aren't huge, but they are athletes and they fly to the ball.

Its nothing against the Cards line, they just haven't blocked well in the last 3 games IMO.

True, but that O line was inexcusable.

722 where'd you hear that? I would rather have Kitna, but what would Dallas give up?

I think I would rather have Johnson over Kitna.

And I know I don't want to waste any picks on a backup qb when we need another WR(williams,johnson) or a DB(lito sheppard) to play while Newman is out and Pacman may potentially be.

Kitna...puke

Newman-Out at least a month, probably more
Romo- Out a month
Felix-Out at least two weeks(and probably another two until 100% since he's a speed guy)
Hurd-Likely out for season
Spencer-Week to week
McBriar-Awaiting MRI results
Pacman-Likely suspension

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> Linebacker Greg Ellis passed on talking to me (or the rest of the evil media) on Sunday after the game, which was a shock. He normally is Mr. Accountability.
So when I saw him today in the locker room, he agreed to talk. And he hinted at something much greater than a regular-season loss, or the bad news that their starting QB is out.
When asked what the reality of this team is, Ellis said, "I can't give you the true reality of yesterday because it would start a big controversy. We're just trying to hang in there together and win games."
When pressed on this Ellis said, "That is as much reality I can give you guys. We're trying to hang in there and win football games. That's it."
Ellis said he was "disappointed in the organization." He also suggested that the team is fractured.
"It seems like the last couple of weeks like you haven't seen the intensity and the passion on the sidelines at times," receiver Patrick Crayton said. "We have to get that back."

and..

Romo - 39 dropbacks, 2 sacks, 19 knockdowns.

Let's send Leonard to the Probowl again...

espn saying mcbriar is headed to IR and no way felix jones is back before their bye week

McBriar could be a big loss, especially with the other injuries. He's been a solid punter for a quite a while.

The punter Oakland used in preseason, Glenn Pakulak, booms em. But, if they bring him in McBriar won't be back next year...cuz jobless or not he's as good or better than 75% of the guys in the league.
