I did not see this coming…like, at all.

which FA qb they attempt to sign, obviously any qb out there is better than Johnson.

I’m thinking they’ll go after Simms although I hear the Titans are trying to re-sign him.

I can throw the bar farther than Brad Johnson

But unless the Cowboys pick up someone in FA, you’re going to have a rookie and Brooks Bollinger backing up Romo.

In order of preference:
1. Chris Simms – Texas boy that’s started, has a decent arm, and good head.
2. Kyle Boller – Young, cannon arm, and starting experience
3. Damon Huard – Released today by the Chiefs. Pedigree, starter, arm, etc. Price is iffy.
4. Grossman – Dude has a Million $ arm and 10 cent head. Still, he’s young and experienced.
5. Leftwich – Once he finds out he can’t start, he could be had.
6. Vick – Why not?

Grossman is not the greatest QB in the world, that’s for dang sure, but they guy can make big plays with his arm. That is rare for a backup QB. You guys have to understand we are not going to get Tom Brady to backup Romo.

It would be interesting to see what he could do with some decent talent around him. At least he can move, and has a really strong arm.

I dont know I think I really lowered my standards on backup QB’s after last season’s nightmare.

Supposedly they haven’t been able to negotiate yet right? Why would Haynesworth take the first good offer? If I were him, I’d try to get some bidding going.

to look in a different direction? As much as we would like to have a better veteran QB in house as soon as possible, I’ve got the feeling that there may be some unexpected names being cut. Maybe not right away , but if we can afford to wait we might get what we want rather that the best of whats available. Right now it would probably be Boller, Losman or Grossman. I think I would rather wait.

are interested in Boller.

I just scanned 100 posts in this string on the quarterback position in Dallas and not one mention of Kurt Warner. The dude wins playoff games and LEADS teams to the Super Bowl. Yep, I know the cost is very steep, but I just cannot get out of my mind that Kurt Warner in Dallas means a good, solid shot at the Cowboys going to the Super Bowl in 2010, whereas Tony "The Gunslinger" Romo at quarterback in 2010 means the Cowboys are a long shot for reaching the Super Bowl.

Possible added benefits of signing Kurt Warner might be (1) the demotion to second string may cause a re-humbling of Tony Romo; (2) the demotion may lead to a refocusing of Romo’s priorities; and (3) Romo would have the opportunity to learn Leadership skills.

I’m not quite at the point of advocating this, but is sure is an intriguing idea worthy of consideration and discussion.

I think Grossman is a capable backup. He has a cannon arm and is experienced enough to challange Romo, as far as getting the ball where it needs to be. He can make every throw. Yeah, I know, sometimes to the defense, but so does Romo. Maybe, with the right coaching, both Romo and Grossman, if he is signed, would cut down on the mistakes.

forgotten the rules Parcells told him to follow.

to keep Johnson and move him to guard and dump Proctor. Johnson is so immobile he would be a better lineman that Proctor. Proctor sucks!

Sounds like a bad sitcom doesn’t it? lol

Word of both these has-beens leaving Dallas on the same day? And its not even my birthday?

I really don’t mind Canty leaving but damn. At least get out of the division.
