Dak Prescott Still Cowboys’ Starter Vs. Eagles in Week 8

October 22 23:00 2016

Their production, stellar – definitely earning them some deserved rest before their division rival Philadelphia comes to Arlington and AT&T Stadium next Sunday night. The veteran is expected to return from his back injury in the next week or two, but with the Cowboys on a roll behind rookie Dak Prescott, do they continue to play the youngster and possibly move the 36-year-old?

Whereas his previous comments have been starkly in favor of Romo, this is much more non-commital.

The Dallas Cowboys are on their bye week during Week 7 of the National Football League season, and as a result, the team has no official injury report to list. “He has not changed any”, said McGee.

Are you exhausted of answering the questions about what’s going to happen when Tony Romo gets back?

If you would have told me the Dallas Cowboys would have been 5-1 going into their bye week before the season started, I probably could have believed you. The Cowboys signed Crawford to a five-year $45 million contract extension last year in 2015, but so far this season he hasn’t really played up to expectations. Romo, meanwhile, is getting closer and closer to returning after sustaining a compression fracture in his lower back in the preseason. Oddsmakers wouldn’t blame them.

There are a couple of other reasons to trade Bryant, and Romo as well.

“Prescott is doing fine, and adds a new dimension to the offense anyway”, Westgate Las Vegas Superbook manager Jeff Sherman says. “But I think it would’ve been a hard push to get him ready for that Eagles game”.

The decision doesn’t necessarily mean the quarterback controversy is solved as it appears Tony Romo is still not ready to get back on the field from his back injury. The Patriots got on a winning streak of 9 Straight games including the playoffs to win the Super Bowl.

Romo’s effectiveness seems to be an overlooked part of the equation.

It’s unclear when Romo will be healthy enough to even be considered.

Cowboys wide receiver Brice Butler had scored only two touchdowns in three seasons coming into this year. After all, Tony Romo was set to make a comeback after he managed to undergo a successful operation to treat a broken bone in his back. Being replaced by a rookie could be the latest-and potentially last-incident. But just a few weeks ago, it was Romo’s team, they all said – including Prescott himself – assuming the franchise QB was healthy. “I know it’s only been six games, but they’ve been a better team since he got hurt”.
