All I know is there no other team in the NFL / Our Division that comes to our house that makes me cringe more than the Panthers.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo has a broken pinkie on his throwing hand and will be out four weeks, a team source told ESPN's Michael Smith.

Romo

Romo initially was diagnosed with a pinkie sprain in Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

Veteran quarterback Brad Johnson, the Cowboys' holder on kicks, is Romo's backup.

The Cowboys have lost two of their last three games after starting the season 3-0.

That game last night seemed to make me wonder if his pinky wasnt broken before hand.

. Gosh, way to get pummeled all day by the cardinals too, and just when you thought they were gonna be a stable team.

I think a close call against the Bengals pretty much says the Cowboys weren't going to be a stable team.

Even though Brad Johnson is old as dirt and doesn't stray from the pocket I don't think he'd fumble the ball as much as Romo does. Romo is overrated.

I cant say that much since the Bengals are talent wise a better team than the cardinals, but have been ****ing up big time this season. To top it all off chad and his antics are driving the team crazy so that doesnt help the situation. **** happens, but damn getting beliveably whooped by the cardinals? thats like SF beating Denver, somthing that should never happen.

That's why they play the game. Sure, it looked like the Cowboys would've won on paper, but again, that's why they play the game. Cards' have a good D, good receivers, a good QB to give them the ball, and good running backs... there's nothing there stopping them from beating the Cowboys if they play a better game, and that's what they did.

Same goes for the Rams beating the Skins, the Dolphins beating the Patriots the way they did, and every other "upset" that's ever happened, and every upset that will happen.

well yes that is true, but its not really worth mention because an upset is just that, somthing that can happen in any game. The whole point is that the cowboys shouldnt be loosing to a team like the cardinals, who after barely beating the eagles, were shaping out to be the best team in the league while also trying to shake off any doubts of thier normal instability.

Well it looks like another dissapointing year for Dallas fans. Some of these bandwagoners need to let go of the Aikman era already.

And yes, Romo is overrated. Its like people forget he drops/fumbles/misses at least 2 balls a game.

OMFG FINALLY! someone besides me has the balls to say that. People act like he's god's gift to football, when all he really is, is a mediocre QB surrounded by good players... and it shows EVERY game.

He also fumbled (i think) and missed a big snap (letting it pop off his shoulder) on 3rd and short yesterday, letting the cardnials put 21 up on them.
