OT: Romo retiring. Going into broadcasting.

[Kontradiction]

Good for him. Definitely a smart decision.

 

[AtomicDawg]

Very smart move for his future. Still involved in football but with no threat of injury. Meanwhile....

 

[aluminum seats]

He could have helped Texans or Broncos I think.

So good for him!

 

[pwes]

Honestly good decision for him. Too many injuries recently His body was getting destroyed.

Agree completely. And a nice kick in the nutsack for the Broncos and Texans, both of whom were counting on him to bail them out of their crappy QB situations.

Win for us in two ways.

1. He won't help aid Houston or Denver.

2. I've heard rumors that he might replace Phil Simms in the booth.

 

[zoostation]

Win for us in two ways.

1. He won't help aid Houston or Denver choke in the first round like he did with the Cowgirls.

2. I've heard rumors that he might replace Phil Simms in the booth.

Disagree completely on Simms, if he's gone how are we supposed to know that the officials got it right on every replay?

 

[Froob]

Emotion aside, that's a huge win for us. He'd have made Denver or Houston a contender. Hope he's happy with his decision and is able to enjoy a great post football career.

A "win"? Have u ever heard Romo as an analyst? No u haven't, because no-one has. Everyone assumes he'll b great in the booth but nobody really knows. He could b a Ray Lewis or Emmet Smith

I'll take my chances he won't be...

Both eliminated from the AFC Race. Steelers eliminated due to incompetence.

Raiders/Titans/Chiefs aren't stopping Tom/BB's 8th appearance. This conference is shaping up to be a joke.

How much does it take to be better than Simms?

If he were so good why didn't he get his job back? The Broncos and Texans will not be a threat next year even with Romo.

Smart move . . .

Raiders are the only team with a shred of hope, since they have a legit big time QB. KC is too limited due to Smith, and Tennessee looks promising but I can't see Mularkey outcoaching BB... Ever.

The only other thing that could stop us is if that chuck-and-duck QB up in Baltimore sees a full moon and becomes an inhuman playoff QB again.

The Titans have a good team but Mariota is coming back from an injury and they don't have any Playoff experience. (Same with the Raiders, but they have the better overall team).
The Chiefs are just so unspectacular. With Game manager Alex Smith at the helm they are not getting out of the Wild Card Round.
The Steelers or the Raiders are probably the most likely to get to the AFCCG with us. And we own both.

They would have. The correct question is: how long would they have been a contender? My best guess is 3-4 weeks, tops.

 

[Rob0729]

Wonder if the Texans will make a run at trying to get Garoppolo now.
