[orangefog]

Romo has retired.

 

[donniesyracuse]

Romo has retired.

He had an excellent career. At the very least, he is the third best Cowboy quarterback of all-time, which isn't too shabby.

 

[Guinness]

Considering his injury history I am glad to see him get out now and not risk any further injury to his back.

 

[Alsacs]

Romo must be getting paid from one of the networks.
Houston traded Brock assuming they were getting Romo.

Houston you can trade 3 first round picks for Jimmy G.

Romo must be getting paid from one of the networks.

Networks are foolish for signing these guys before it is known that they can truly do the job (e.g., Tiki Barber).

 

[ssbriefcase]

I heard technically he did not retire. He's going to look into broadcasting and he might play if a team wants him bad enough. At least that's what Dan Patrick was talking about.

Yes no more Simms on important Patriots games. Thank you Romo.
Simms has been awful for years.

 

[ssbriefcase]

If that takes Simms away, pay Romo his Dallas salary asap

This is one NFL decision that would get unity support from both Broncos and Patriots fans.

Phil Simms is the greatest analyst in the history of analysts...in any sport.

you guys are all crazy.

thank you.


I still wear my Simms jersey to every home game.

what a shlitty way to get shown the door.

2 poke QBs on the top call.

somebody get Danny White in at NBC and totally ruin my game watching experience.

Is this Romo's 1st victory over the G-Men?

this AM they were saying he was replacing Gonzalez on the studio show, I guess that's changed??

You watch Big Blue not the AFC games.
He is awful.
Phil Simms Quotes (@philsimmsquotes) on Twitter

He never disagrees with bad obvious calls. He is the worst analyst of the top broadcasters.

 

[Guinness]

I don't mind Simms.

I dislike just about the entire Fox crew top to bottom however. Buck and Aikman are the worst. I watch a lot of Fox games with the sound muted.

Simms has really regressed the last 4 years. He doesn't say anything critical about anybody.
He says we talked about XYZ about everything during the game.
He has forced Nantz to be the PBP and color guy.

Simms should go to the studio and just say nothing there where people don't watch anyway.

I am not a fan of Joe Buck as he is the definition of nepotism.
Troy Aikman has gotten better at his job. He will be critical when appropriate and tries to overcompensate he isn't a Cowboys homer when he does their games.

My favorite team is Ian Eagle and Dan Fouts they are great.

 

[KaiserUEO]

how long till romo breaks his collarbone in the booth??

it can get pretty rough in there you know...

rumor is he will do some golf too, probably will snap an ankle walking the course.

I wouldn't mind Simms joining the Giants and doing all the weekly shows, the pre & post-game and ultimately joining Papa & Banks in the booth.

Romo had a great career, I know a lot of people like to hate on the guy, but he took a lot of Cowboys teams who weren't that good, and made them competitive every year.

 

[Toga]

Simms one of my favorite players of all time. As an announcer - meh.

Cowboy QB's definately better than Romo

• Roger Staubach
• Troy Aikman
• Danny White

Cowboy QB's possibly better than Romo

• Craig Morton
• Don Meredith

Cowboy backup QB's better than Romo

• Steve Walsh
• Rodney Peete
• Bernie Kosar
• Wade Wilson
• Randell Cunningham
• Drew Bledsoe

OK - I'm kidding about the backups, but IMO at best he's #4. Maybe #5.

 

[ForCuseSake]

Simms is awful. His gooberific southern accent is the worst.

Joey Hairplugs and Aikman have as much charisma as the early bird special at the Ocala Applebee's.

Fouts & Gannon are solid ex QBs in the booth. I prefer old coaches (preferably ones with a weakness for alcohol) to ex players.

Too many ex QBs have had their melon squashed to be decent color guys.

  • Danny White

  No way on Danny White!!!! Did you live through that era?

 

[donniesyracuse]

Is this Romo's 1st victory over the G-Men?

Romo won six of his last seven starts against the Giants.

 

[Briancuse]

• No way on Danny White!!!! Did you live through that era?

I didn't but there is no way you can possibly put White ahead of Romo.

Exactly

So Simms is off the air entirely and not just demoted?
