08:07 AM ET 09.14 | Dez Bryant was on the thinnest of ice. [Bryant] might be saving his career -- or at least his stint with the Dallas Cowboys -- by recently agreeing to a series off-the-field guidelines while his pending legal case hangs in the balance. The so-called "Dez Bryant Rules" that took effect in late August after the Cowboys returned from their California training camp include counseling, a prohibition on alcohol and round-the-clock security. ... Had the third-year pro not agreed to the guidelines, would he still be a member of the Cowboys? "That's a fair question, but I don't know the answer," Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told USA TODAY Sports. "But let me say this: To be on the Dallas Cowboys, he needed to show that he was serious about altering his lifestyle."

go do your homework. in what was considered an off year last year he had over 900 yards and 9 td's. not great but much better than a lot of receivers.

Another guy with a lot of talent and an empty head. Hopefully he will grow up a bit before money, fame and a driver's license get him into trouble the NFL can't get him out of.

At the end of the season, Pete Carroll is going to say, "I was hoping 7-9 would be good enough to get us into the playoffs. Again."

Ah, but in 2010 Romo was injured before mid-season, and John Kitna finished out the year.

Better than average player, but a liability because of his enormous ego and poor decisions off the field. I really don't see him having a long career in the NFL, unless he learns some humility. the babysitters can't be everywhere. Grow up, Dez.

How is that considered an off year for him?
He's only played two seasons and last year was his best.
Your homerism is really showing here.
