I don't think this will happen. Instead of reading the terms of sponsorship deals halfway through his rookie season, dak is learning to read defenses. Maybe if rg3 ever learned how to do that, "rg3ing it" wouldn't be seen as a bad thing.

Dak also doesn't have a long history of injuries.
So I'm gonna disagree with Hugh here and say that I would 100% rather face the Cowboys with a perfectly healthy and red hot Prescott than a questionably healthy ice cold Romo.
The elite defensive coordinators are able to exploit rookie QBs. Look at the game logs of any QB who had a huge rookie year. Look for their games against teams like Pittsburgh or New England or any other team known for having a smart DC or defensive HC.
Since y'all brought up RG3 he's a perfect example. His inability to read defenses didn't slow him down against most teams that rookie year. He tore everyone up. Until he came up against Dick LeBeau and looked like a chump.
The limited viewing of the Cowboys I've seen it doesn't matter if it's Dak or Romo the offense is block like a boss and run the ball.
You're crazy, Serge. I was trying to think of another word for it, but I can't. You're not even a Cowboys fan.
So you must be crazy.
Romo is old. He's barely played in 2 years because of injury. He's not mobile.
Dak can run, escape pressure. He takes care of the football. He's confident and has the confidence of the team. They've won 8 in a row.
They aren't the same at all. How can you say it doesn't matter who plays?
I think they'd have beaten the Bears, 49ers and Browns with Weeden as their QB though. If Romo started then got hurt again all that happens is Dak goes back in the game. Injury really isn't an issue to me since they have depth at the position. Cowboys are cruising to the playoffs because they have a cupcake schedule.
Yeah, probably. Four of their wins are by 1 score though.
If you asked every player on the Cowboys team, in private, who they wanted to play QB after Romo is medically cleared, I bet almost every one would say Prescott. That's why it matters.
Romo to Denver. Denver wins another Superbowl with a stellar defense next year with an amazing QB that the original team doesn't want because of stupid injury stuff.
