POLL If the Cowboys move on......where does Romo play next season?

[Ojb81]

Not really, but I'm not going to let a fuck face like you rank on me without hitting back. If you can't have a civil discussion, then go fuck yourself dickbreath.

Would be a good fit in Denver

Would be a good fit in Denver

You know I have heard this a few times and I guess I just don't see it.

1) The Broncos have signed players with the thought that cap wise they were going to have 2 very cheap options at the QB position for the next few years. They have the cap space to make it work but I think it would make things a lot tighter than they want.

2) His injury history combined with the Broncos having an OL that is in transition and will be once again next year just doesn't set up well for him lasting 16 games.

3) Kubiak's system is QB friendly but most QB's take at least a year to adjust mostly just to the language part of it. The playcalling is something many QB's have talked about in the past that takes a long time to feel comfortable. So not sure they are looking for a 1-year rental that might take longer to adjust than they would want.

4) Outside of Denver people don't hear this as much but those connected to the team I can promise you they are down right giddy about the potential of Lynch after this season. They are mostly just working to protect him a bit this year since he is still learning the system and mostly how to just play from under Center but he daily leaves the coaches in awe of his natural talent. I'm thinking they are wanting to get him on the field sooner than later.

He'll continue to be the Cowboys backup until he retires. He isn't going anywhere.

 

[Clayton]

Good fit for Kansas City but for his sake I hope he retires

 

[jarntt]

I coukd see him in a Cowboys uniform in 17, if he's cut post June and resigned at a much lower salary.

No chance. If he is cut he is not coming back to the Cowboys to be a backup. He is going somewhere to try and start. And if we cut him post 6/1 we incur his cap hit of $10.7M in 2017 and another $9M in 2018. We only do that if we are going to move on for good.

IMO this is a discussion for February. Things change in sports. I don't expect it, but I also wouldn't be shocked if come playoff time Romo was the QB of the Cowboys...

 

[jarntt]

IMO, Romo is no better than Bradford. Why would Minnesota want another washed-up QB?

Seriously? You can talk all you want about Romo being injury prone and a stupid move for a team to count on him because he isn't likely to get through a season, but to say he is no better than Bradford is absolutely insane...

Please don't squash my dreams. I know it's highly impossible, just my idea on a way he could be in Dallas. I can't see the team paying him that contract to be a back up.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

I think Denver would be logical. They did it before with Manning. He could win a SB in Denver if he could stay healthy.

 

[mcnabb7542]

Nowhere. He will retire.

Yep I think he walks away as well...

 

[Lifer]

Nowhere. He will retire.

Let's hope so. Sure don't wanna see him in another jersey. Hated seeing that with Dorsett and Smith.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

I think if he finds a good situation he goes.

This would have been his year had he not been hurt. It could still be if Dak gets hurt.

I really think Denver would be a really strong fit. Last place he wants to go is Chicago or Jets or anyplace else the O line is below average.

 

[jarntt]

If we cut him post 6/1 it saves us $5M in cap space in 2017 - and of course more over the next two years. Perhaps the team feels Romo is worth that cost even if as a backup. Heck, Dak could shit the bed and Romo may be the starter by the Vikings game. But, I think the more likely scenario of Romo being in Dallas next year is as starter, not a backup.

 

[miah]

There's this place in Nevada but I can't remember the name. Something to do with rabbits on a ranch....

 

[Broncosr0k]

I could pass on Romo in Denver. Really don't need a mid-thirties QB with multiple back injuries getting paid millions and millions to be injured.

Yeah, just look how horribly that worked out for you last year

Ed Zachary.

 

[Scapegoat]

Denver

 

[Carnzo]

Tony's next signing after Dallas will be on a AARP card.
Great veteran presence but the body can't take it anymore.

Worst QB play in SB history, bottom 5 offense? Good selling point. We have shitty offensive play already without paying the outrageous salary.
