Jerry Jones says Cowboys wont rest starters but hints Tony Romo might play

Wiki Article

The are 11-1 and have already clinched a spot in the playoffs. They still have four games left in the regular season, though, and still have to notch as least one more win to secure the NFC's No. 1 seed and home field throughout the NFC playoffs. As such, it DeMarco Murray Jersey 's time for that age-old question asked of teams that clinch well in advance of the playoffs: will they rest their starters down the stretch of the season? According to owner Jerry Jones, the Cowboys will not. The Cowboys will proceed with a "busine s as usual" approach.Jerry Jones says on that busine s as usual after Cowboys clinch. Don't plan on resting starters. Charean Williams (@NFLCharean) However, Jones did hint that at least one backup might get a chance to see some playing time. Jerry Jones on talking about getting Tony Romo playing time: Jon Alexander Mattison Men Jersey Machota (@jonmachota) The Cowboys made the decision to keep the train rolling with a few weeks ago, with backing him up. That's a fine decision. If Romo has to play at some point, things become a bit different. He hasn't played in a game since Thanksgiving of last year. He hasn't truly been fully healthy for a regular season game since the 2015 season-opener. If something were to happen to Prescott in the playoffs, the Cowboys would obviously want Romo to be prepared. So getting him at least some work during these last four games makes some sense on that level. Then again, giving him work could create yet another quarterback controversy, something the Cowboys seem to have weathered with relative ease for now. If Romo comes back and plays as well as he did in 2014 -- when he was arguably the best quarterback in the league -- that could create some doubt as to whether he should really be on the bench behind Prescott when the playoffs start. Those doubts already exist in some (small) circles. Romo playing at a high level when he gets into a game would only make the chorus louder. (I'm still personally of the opinion that the Cowboys can't make a bad choice. Romo and Prescott are both good. It's not like they're choosing between a good QB and a bad one. And Travis Kelce Women Jersey when their line and running game are working this well, whoever is under center will be put in position to succeed.) Romo is not your typical backup. He was the team's unquestioned starter for a decade, he's one of the three best quarterbacks in the history of the franchise, he has all kinds of team and even some NFL records, and he lost his job, mostly, because he got hurt and his backup played too well in his absence to take the backup out. He's extraordinarily close to both Jerry Jerry Tillery Women Jersey Jones and Cowboys coach Jason Garrett, and it's clear that a) it pained them to bench him for Prescott; and b) they want to find a way to do right by him somehow as the Cowboys try to make their way to a Super Bowl. They just have to find a way to balance doing right by Romo with doing right by the team, because that ultimate goal is more important to everyone involved, including Romo himself.
