    I think you stick with him...Bill is right, everyone has been waiting for this day...The problem is, their will be a learning curve as we saw Monday night and if they think Romo will be lights out and win consistently, they may be mistaken...

    When asked about players reactions, Ed Werder said some players fear Romo will lock in to TO to get him on his side instead of distributing the ball.

    I suspect one of those players was Glenn.

    He seemed to favor Witten more than anyone Monday night. Romo doesn't have to get anyone on his side...He's the starter unless he stinks it up. No one will be able to save him if he plays that not even TO. I find it funny how the media cant mention anything about the Cowboys without throwing TO's name into the picture. They make everything sound bad about him too.

    I think we are going to win this next game. It's just one of those redemption games where you bounce back because your hungry after embarrassing yourselves at home and now you want to lay down some hurt on your next opponent. I think Romo will be better this game than last game...which was like stepping off a cruise ship into Falluja, Iraq. Well...not quite.

    Who had Bledsoe lock in on him which caused him to throw that interception before half time which ended Bledsoe's career.

    I don't have a good feeling about Romo starting the rest of the season. Ihope I'm wrong but I don't think I can handle both the Cowboys and the Texans struggling the rest of the season. :(

    The upside is the Rockets have looked GREAT at times this preseason.

    Jerry Jones doesn't like the move. On the other hand, Terrell Owens likes Romo and feels chemistry between the two after not developing any with Bledsoe. I think the Cowboys may slowly sink to the bottom of the NFC East because they have a pretty tough schedule ahead of them.

    at Carolina
    at Washington
    at Arizona
    Indianapolis
    Tampa Bay
    at New York Giants
    New Orleans
    at Atlanta
    Philadelphia
    Detroit

    I would only call there games against Arizona, Detroit, and Washington wins right now.

    6-10 is possible, i do like them at home against philly and steal one from tampa or the saints to finish a dismal 8-8.

    The link you gave says Jerry Jones is disappointed with the move, not Julius (unless I missed something).

    And the way I read it, it sounds like Jerry is disappointed in the reasons why this move was made (bad O-line play?) and not necessarily disappointed at the move itself. I know in another article based on his comments, Jones was described as "supportive."

    Romo has been very impressive, making plays and has very good pocket presence, and doing it against a very ferocious Panther defense. Looks like the Cowgirls found a QB. If not for Bledsoe, they would have at least 2 more wins.

    The o-line is still questionable, but Romo does bring a different tempo and attitude...I can't believe f'n Vanderstoink...

    Wow, best I have seen the Cowboys play in a couple years. Great win.

    Romo- I know he will have some adjustment problems, but he looks good. Quick, Intelligent. Looked solid at eluding the rush and quick enough to run it. Has a quick release.

    I think he could get us into the playoffs. This Carolina team is no slouch.

    Huge win.

    Agreed with the huge win. Hopefully they can take the good things from this game and keep it going on the remainder two game road trip.

    Romo looked really sharped out there. It will be interesting how he responds next week. Just stay humble young man and keep getting the wins.

    Go Cowboys.
