Romo has reached his ceiling, IMHO. Denver saves face and gets a QB who can lead them to the playoffs. Dallas, on the other hand, gets a very talented guy who needs a change of address in the worst way. Put Cutler with Dallas' OC and you'd have something special, I think.

Romo has actually proven less than Cutler playoff wise because though Cutler has never played in the playoffs, Romo has not fared particularly well performance wise. And I don't think either of them played all that well in Dec of 2008. Cutler has the arm strength over Romo, though Romo's is pretty good. They are both able to make throws they shouldn't be able to and are athletic. Mental wise, I have doubts about both of them though. And McDaniels will not want another freewheeling guy like Romo IMO.

I'd do this in a heartbeat of I was Jerry Jones, he needs to get fans excited also going into his Billion dollar stadium this season.

Romo has peaked, but is atleast a decent and young replacement for Cutler. I'd ask for Romo and maybe a draft pick for Cutler if I was Denver

I agree with you FB..

Both are very gifted everywhere but the most important place, between the ears. Both have caved when the pressure was on them, I want neither.

However, and this would never happen, but if I was offered Cutler for Romo, if I am the Cowboys I think long and hard about it.

My reasoning, MONEY. Romo signed a huge deal, and Cutler is still on his rookie contract.

Moot now, but I thought this was going to make for an interesting discussion.

In a way they are the same guy: talented, but with issues. Mind you, Romo's problems aren't so much selfish, me-first bad attitude as they are bright lights-big city, Hollywood star, head-up-his-a$$ syndrome. He seems to be more interested in living the lifestyle of being the Cowboys QB than actually working hard to be the best Cowboys QB he can.

The debate would essentially be "which downside do you prefer"? :sosp:

It's even moreso that Romo seems to scoff at the whole fact that he is being questioned about that's being an issue. First there's the whole Cabo before the playoffs disaster. Second, I remember how when BP was in Dallas he handed Romo the 11 QB commandments and the last one is DO NOT BE A CELEBRITY QB. Well they asked Romo about that one last year and I believe he said you can be a celebrity QB if you are good enough. Kind of implying he thought he was...you know...good enough. I think Romo is more salvageable attitude wise than Cutler if only because Romo wasn't some 1st rounder who had a silver spoon from the get go like Cutler. At least you would THINK that would be the case...most longshot guys who end up starting don't act like Romo to begin with. And he also hasn't shown bus throwing under tendencies like Cutler has. You can only be a whiny little bus throwing under bitch and get away with it if you have proven your abilities for more than a year or two (Peyton).

Cutler is a gunslinger......and who said a gunslinger can't be a franchise QB?

Oh, you are right.

In general though, A primarily gunslinger mentality is better than a robotic-"going through the motions" style.

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      Canales was brought in to fix Bryce. That was how he sold himself. He failed.  the panthers need a new qb, someone to coach him, and someone to build a defensive staff.  Canales has failed at developing a new qb. His big draft project XL is trending towards bust. His entire nfl resume before the panthers was one season as offensive coordinator on a stacked Bucs team, and being on the offensive staff when a 31 year old Geno smith finally put it all together. And he didn’t even pick his offensive coordinator. Assuming evero is gone, who’s he got in that phone to call? What low lvl porn addict evangelical from the bucs is ready to be Peter principled? There is nothing in his coaching history or his current performance that indicates he’s the person to move this team forward. Every other team knew this last cycle (panthers were only interview) and nothing has happened to change that perception   all people like you have is “well you can’t do it again it’s too soon but <random interval of time> will be different.  just pull off the bandage. There’s no reason to let this guy draft “his guy” except people wanting an excuse not to fire him after 2025.

      Both Reich and Canales were saddled with trying to build and establish a viable scoring offense around Bryce Young. The best the offense looked this season and last season was with Andy Dalton who is also terrible but still better than Bryce Young. Which should be all anyone needs to know but still somehow there are weirdos here salivating over a ceiling of maybe on a really good day the 25th best QB in the league. We've already canned one entire staff over our first overall pick. You can fire everyone again to satisfy your need for vengeance and quickly come to the realization that your next hire will absolutely unequivocally be a downgrade yes man or you can blow up this QB room and then assess. If no progress next season then you can make changes and justifiably so.
