Romo speaks

#36

Quote:Yeah, Romo is getting up there in age for a QB.


But, he didn't play last season (remember the backup QB carousel they used last year?). And, he isn't going to play this season.


2 full seasons of not even playing has positives and negatives.

-It "kind-of" offsets his age for a couple years.

-Although, not playing in 2 years might have a lot of rust built up in him.


He'd be a really good "stop-gap" QB for a year or two while another QB on the bench is groomed to get back in after he's ready.



Say what you will about Bortles, but he'd be an excellent backup QB at this point. Give him a season or two backing up Romo. Bortles recalibrates his mechanics,, studies film and decision-making, and then comes back ready when it's his time to take it back over.
 

He did play last year....I was at the game where Thomas Davis sacked him on Thanksgiving and broke his rib (or whatever it was). I get what you're saying, but the reason he hasn't had much time is because he's been injured. It's not like he's just sitting there in game shape but not seeing action. 

 

I actually think Bortles is good. Obviously he's had a bad year, but it's too early to pull the plug on him (in my non-Jags fan opinion).
