re: Cowboys sign Romo to 6 year $108 million extension $55 million guaranteed

I don't like the deal, but this is what QB's cost on the open market in the NFL. The Cowboys problem is not Romo, it's an awful offensive line and a patchwork running back corps. I think the amount of crap Romo takes is completely disproportionate to his sins. He's a good QB, in that level below the true elite.

Romo had the Cowboys over a barrel, as they had no one else on the team to take over the job and a pretty dismal QB crop in this year's draft. This deal was inevitable, but it's not the reason the Cowboys will go 8-8 for eternity.
