Wow, even I see y'all as better than that.

If Romo stays healthy, that alone will give ya a shot offensively against most teams. Sean Lee was a huge hit. I have a lot of respect for him, guys a baller, but seems snake bit.


That's the problem... the defense. I have ZERO confidence based on what I saw last year. The secondary is the same... the linebackers are the same (even without Lee who wasn't there late last year) and the defensive line is a hodgepodge mishmash of guys named Herb. I was happy with the draft as they filled needed holes... but it's not like they were going to fill all the holes. Banking on Romo to carry this team while the defense is in an "Under Construction" umbrella is a recipe for a lot of entertaining games... and getting burned in the end.

I really REALLY hope I'm wrong.

Romo's health is iffy at best. Factor in his age and the fact his back is limiting his GOLF! Romo and health just don't seem to belong in the same sentence.

I understand the concern. All true, but he's been a warrior thru a lot of injuries, so there's legit hope. That contract tho... :L


But how much of him being a diva is the media?

A lot. Spotlight is bright in DC, just like Big D.

Regardless, Griff has to learn that not everyone is gonna love him and prove the naysayers wrong on the football field, not off it. Love that the guy is so open with the media, but it gets him in trouble and things get twisted out of context. He's still quite young and after last year, people just love to jump in on a circus.
 

Canuck eh?

Yes, he's a warrior. But how many times after a loss and bad decisions have we heard about Tony playing thru pain and injury?
He has after all proven he is still a human.

Yep, the state of affairs on D is looking pretty grim for y'all. But who's defense rocks in the NFCE? All the teams in the division look pretty good offensively.

Marlins Fan would disagree with you. Going to miss baiting him during football season this year

And thanks for the discussion Otis and UBP.

This is exactly the kind of exchange I wish could actually happen amongst the team boards, but it will never happen :L

At some point, I guess we will just have to create a thread on the NFC forum to have these dialogues. The trolls will show up - but that's OK.

We can deal with that.
