from what i've read about T.O. this season, he has kept quiet and not been a problem off the field. but, they've got to blame someone.... so it's T.O. look at dallas.... T.O. was ALL the problems so they shipped him off. now the team is "romo friendly" and things were supposed to be great!! we are having the same struggles w/out T.O. and now we have a WR making $9 million/yr and he couldn't carry T.O.'s jock strap as far as production on the field. we may have a romo friendly team, but that has NOT transulated into wins or better play sunday afternoons. if buffalo is struggling.... blame T.O. and ship him off to some other team. but don't look for huge improvements as dallas did... they won't happen.

i'll say one more thing.... T.O. is no "savior" for any team just like randy moss wasn't either. but when moss didn't work well with one team he was traded to a team (pats) that he worked well with - given a good QB in brady. i think T.O. could be the same way. if dallas had jimmy johnson or aikman, T.O. might have worked. dallas has NO LEADER ANYWHERE.... so T.O. eventually ran wild with his comments/complaints and that got him booted. but look at his stats w/ dallas - and that's w/ romo - and his numbers were good.

Just as Favre was the first player to beat every NFL team, could T.O be the first player to play for every NFL team. Between his trash talk of a season or two ago (none so far this season) and his inability to produce this year he may just make that distinction.

Dallas Fan and Roy! I agree with both of you, but Roy, what a statement. Could TO be kicked out of all 32 locker rooms!! lol Thankfully his career is coming to a swift end. I think his ending up in Buffalo says a lot. They were desperate. Many other teams would not touch this idiot! I think TO realizes this and because he does not want to burn his last bridge is keeping his mouth shut!

Dallas Fan, As a man who grew up watching America's team, with all the greats like Staubach, Too Tall Jones, Dorsett, I hate to say this, but Dallas' problems are much bigger than any one player on the team. Romo is a mediocre QB at best. The receiver's corp is talented, as is the defense, and their O-line has the potential to be the best in the league. The big problem in Dallas is that they are playing flat, uninspired, going through the motions football. There is no passion, inspiration, or belief in their coach or management. That combined with all the drama surrounding that team just makes it that much harder for them to play football. 15 potential All-Pro players, 3-5 Potential Super Stars, solid but uninspired talent in all phases of the game, all the money in the world thanks to Skeletor, and they still cannot win.

Dallas Fan, One more point. I know TO has HUGE talent and he could have had a much more productive career if he just had the class and respected his team enough to play team football. I know Romo fed him to try and keep his mouth shut, hence the good numbers. TO flushed a lot of potential records down the toilet by going from team to team the way he did because of his mouth. I have never seen or heard of a player who created so much turmoil and division within his team's locker room than TO. Ever... Such squandered talent... Sad...
