The Cowboys don't have anything to lose to sign Bledsoe. I think it would be a good deal for the Cowboy's to release Vinny and take the chance on Drew!

good move by the cowgirls.

Is this really a good thing for the Cowboys, HONESTLY...
We will just have to see... :thinking:

I don't know if it's a good thing, but it certainly can't be a bad thing. Vinny is past the age where he can be consistently effective. Quincy was just painful to watch a big part of the time. Hopefully it will turn out to be a good thing for the 'Boys.

He's had two "down years" and one where his freakin' lung collapsed. On the whole, his numbers are better than even Troy Aikman's, Don Meredith's or Roger Staubach's.

Parcells got him to one Super Bowl without much of a defense. Dallas has a solid D. I think it'll work out just fine if ol' Jerry doesn't screw the pooch.

sure stats look good , but I don't think he's the answer...:thinking:
yeah, he went to a Super Bowl, but that was years ago...I think they need a better offensive line to block and then it may not matter who you have back there...
I wish them the best of luck and they should make playoffs next year,but that's all...there not Super Bowl contenders yet...

[bullfrog_alumni_02]

i think it will all come down to if he can work well w/ the team like the other great quarterbacks in Cowboy history. if the team has alot of cohesion, i think they may do some damage in the playoffs, if not, we maybe in for a long year...AGAIN!!!!
