I get the negotiating aspect and maximizing Romo worth, I just think Dak is due a bit more consideration publicly in the matter. If your intention is to make him your franchise QB going forward then give him props, its not like Romo's status is a secret.......Every NFL team is aware of what value if any Romo would bring to their respective organizations.

How do you know they didn't give him his "props" in the exit meetings?

I hope Romo goes somewhere in that's good and spanks Dallas a** in the playoffs.

If I was Dak, I might be just a bit put off by the front office refusal to name him as the stating QB going forward. I'm sure there are conversations going on internally that the public and media are not privy to yet but I think its about time go give Dak some finality in the matter and the public accolades he deserves. Maybe its just me but end the controversy already. I don't think its a good idea to continue to keep the man dangling on a string like the organization has done all season.

Quote [This is going to be a long, arduous offseason in Dallas thanks mostly to their impending decisions at quarterback.

On Monday, head coach Jason Garrett wanted to keep those discussions at arm's length for at least a little while. He was asked if Dak Prescott was definitively the team's starting quarterback in 2017.

"Don't want to get into those discussions," he said, via The Dallas Morning News.]Quote

This will play out like Peyton and the Colts a few years ago, Everyone knows they really need to release him. No takers and he picks his team in the off season. Unless someone is in need for a 37 yo injury prone (as of late) QB.

That's what I think will happen.

Romo has played 5 games in 2 years and has only started all 16 games in four of his nine seasons in the NFL. That ain't good.

Just how much value do you think he has and you know Jerrah is going to send him to team that is a good fit for him which limits his options even more.

I hope they can get something for him. And I hope Tony does well. However, smart money says he won't ever play a full season again. he's just too fragile.

Make no mistake about it, Tony still feels like he can play and play at an elite level, I would not bet against him, he already has proved pretty much everybody wrong to begin with, undrafted, po dunk college, no arm, etc, he probably owns every quarterback record for the Cowboys except the rings.

Sounds like a Danny White

He could look a safety off like no other.....

Give me rings over records. Sounds like a Danny White

Tony needs to retire while he can still walk and play catch with his kids. I get being a driven competitor with a matching ego. But is the long-shot possibility of taking a team to an elusive Super Bowl berth worth the risk of more injuries that have long-term implications on Tony's quality of life for the next 50 years?

He only started every game this year. What the hell more of a message do you need than that?

A very lucky throw and catch ruined it for Danny White, he was a very good quarterback.

That'll probably be lost on most.

Danny White was a better backup than a starting QB.

Read this very carefully..... Jones and Romo are not done....The plays left on the field all year that EVERYONE saw, coaches, scouts, writers, are haunting Jones right now....One of the Cowboy's writers in his after game article talked about Dez showing up, but also said he was open all night and could have easily had a 3 TD 200 yard game.... That's an indictment of the QB....

If they were 13-3 with the QB play they had, what would it look like with "Rogers level" QB play?

These are the things being talked about inside the inner circle....Bet it!

Could be.....But they only save 5 million unless they post June release him and I don't believe they will do that because it cripples his ability to hook onto another team when he needs to.....I understand that business is business, but I don't believe Jones will do that to him for 5 more million

As soon as the team starts listening to beat writers all is lost any way. Sounds like that writer should take up coaching if he is that confident. Past that there are plays left on the field in EVERY game no matter what team and QB is playing. Green Bay left plays on the field as well. Kinda easy to go back now and point them out and play the what if game. That what if game is kinda lame. What happened Sunday night was they got beat. One more play from the defense, one more play that last a few extra seconds etc and maybe the result would have been different. They played as a team and lost as a team.

Gonna be fun next year to see all the folks that will turn against this team or certain players etc. Fans are funny like that. About 2 months ago a LOT of Green Bay fans wanted McCarthy fired. Lots of beat writers too. You think they will write an article admitting they were wrong? Nahhh......

This team will be back and probably better off for the experience. They have a lot of talent that will only get better. Next year is gonna be fun.

Wasn't a beat writer....Was one of the guys that transitioned from the old scouting team.....But whatever.... Have to wait and see

See the comments they both made today..... Misdirection or more telling...

Denver receivers are starting to talk about success with Romo...

Apparently I give a [censored] about it..... Take your pink hat off and drink some juice sonny
