Quote:I feel like they need to be really careful to not overwork his arm again, and if they can do that much he should be able to avoid disaster provided he doesn't have a mental relapse regarding INTs. It sounds like Hackett is going to get to work on our run game, and that should go a long ways toward keeping our qb healthy.


 

As for him having to earn a spot, well it all depends on who they bring in. Most likely he remains the unquestioned starter, but what if they bring in Nick Foles? In that case I think you'd have to let them compete.


 

 

That said, let me again stress that if I were GM,
I'm trading a fourth round pick or whatever it takes to acquire Romo, and would let Blake backup Romo
as long as Romo is healthy enough to start. I truly feel like a year or two behind Romo where he's mostly on the bench but probably still starts a few games would do wonders for Blake's long-term success.
