Should the Dallas Cowboys start Tony Romo at quarterback?
Dak Prescott lost his first game in 13 weeks, sinking Dallas' chance to clinch the NFC East division title. Some critics worry the low-scoring game against the New York Giants exposed the Dallas Cowboys and has renewed calls to start former franchise quarterback Tony Romo. But others say rookie quarterback Dak Prescott has played at an elite level for most of the season and is a frontrunner for NFL MVP. Is it time for Dak to ride some pine so Tony Romo can return?

Should the Dallas Cowboys start Tony Romo at quarterback?
Sure, Tylters might think the Cowboys are still early Super Bowl favorites—but the shine is coming off Dak Prescott's star. Talking heads were already trying to craft the argument that Romo should start over Dak in the postseason, and this loss will only escalate such talk:
Making a quarterback change is always a difficult decision. With 11 straight wins and 20 touchdown passes, Prescott has earned the right to struggle. But in Garrett's process-oriented world where the result is almost secondary, the Cowboys have to at least look at the possibility of a switch, as strange as that might sound with an 11-2 record.

Dak Prescott has led the Cowboys to one of the best starts in team history and people are calling for his head after one loss? This is why social media is just the worst. Benching the future of the franchise because of one game seems like a total overreaction:
That shouldn’t be a consideration at this point. The Cowboys, after all, just had an 11-game winning streak ended. They remain the clear front-runner to be the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs with a two-game lead over the Detroit Lions. Prescott has been superb and has earned the right to have a bad game or two.
This is "America's Team" we're talking about. Failure is not an option. When you have an opportunity to clinch your division and earn a huge bye week in the playoffs, you have to seize it. That's what separates franchise quarterbacks from "game managers."

Take it easy on Dak. He's just a kid. A reactionary roster move is how you wreck a franchise star.
I wish everyone would realize that Dak Prescott is only like 22 years old. If you think that all this Tony Romo talk from Jerry and a small but growing section of Cowboys fans isn't beginning to wear on him then you are too old to remember how fragile young men can be. How uncertain they can be.
After a 10-7 loss to the Giants, it appears both fans and sportswriters' honeymoon with Dak Prescott is over.

Some cooler heads are still throwing their support behind Dak.
