Romo Out For A Month

IRVING, Texas (AP) — The already slumping Dallas Cowboys now must survive a few games without two-time Pro Bowl quarterback Tony Romo, who has a broken finger on his throwing hand.

There was indeed something wrong when Romo badly missed on his last two pass attempts to Terrell Owens in a 30-24 overtime loss at Arizona on Sunday, the Cowboys' second defeat in three games. Coach Wade Phillips said Monday that Romo broke his right pinkie on the first play of OT.

Brad Johnson, the 40-year-old backup whose last start was in 2006 for Minnesota, takes over Sunday when Dallas plays at St. Louis.

Expect Dallas to lose a couple in that month's time..... Brad Johnson is a statue in the backfield, but Romo moves around.

Not looking forward to this at all.

I think they will go 2-1 in that stretch. I know it is a lot to ask for based on what they have done the last 3 weeks but I think this week may have been a true wake up call for the team especially the defense.

Johnson should be able to win as many in the last three that the Romo led Cowboys have...what? I think that's 1-2, isn't it? I can't see where there will be much change. Anyone else think Romo is in a sophomore slump????? It really is just his soph. year. He will be a GREAT ONE before all is said and done with his career, but so far this year...not so much.

NO FIRE IN THIS TEAM AT ALL. Can't figure this team out, but then, it is pro sports, so all in all...WHO CARES???? Ha!

Brad Johnson is a solid backup. No, he won't carry a team to the Super Bowl, but I don't think he'll lose games on his own either.
