Cowboys interested in Cam Newton??

The Dallas Cowboys. Yes, the same Dallas Cowboys who already have Tony Romo in the prime of his career on their roster.

Newton was asked about going to the Cowboys by reporters from WFAA TV in Dallas. His reply: "Jerry Jones, man he knows how to get hold of me, let's just say that," Newton says. Does that mean Jones has already talked to Newton?

Newton will have a chance to impress Jones and the rest of the NFL at the Combine next week. "Just as a whole, my opportunity right now, I?m just going to continue to work hard on trying to become the best player I can be," he told WFAA. "Whatever team gets me, it's going to be an honor in itself to be picked up and it's just going to be a dream come true."

Tim Cowlishah of the Dallas Morning News (and ESPN's Around the Horn) has seen enough. He says Newton would make a great replacement for Romo.

I'm not sure if they want him bad enough to trade up to get him, or how high they are willing to trade up. This definitely makes this interesting. I wonder how many other teams are interested as well.

This all stems from Cam Newton saying "Jerry Jones knows how to get hold of me." Blech.

I'd love if they fell for him and offered us some nice trades, but really? I just don't see it.

Its not of the realm of possibility. Romo is 31, and is coming off of a bad injury, and everyone knows about his playoff issues, or lack thereof.

True enough, and it'd probably be one of the best situations for Cam to be honest. Not just Romo, but another backup veteran too... He'd be allowed to come along slowly and could really become the icon he wants to be.

Now, we just need to find a way to sell the Cowboys on him...

      He has attempted 8 shootout goals in his NHL career and made 1. He is among our worst SO guys on the entire roster in terms of career stats.

      How many Qbs can you name better than Bryce Young?

      By cranky · Posted

      Against Miami, the Panthers were behind by 17 in the 2nd quarter facing a 4th - 5. Young completed a 21 yard pass and they went on to score 7 on that drive. Then in the 4th, down by 4, they faced a 4th - 5 and again, he completed a 17 yard pass and they went onto score a TD for the win. He also accounted for 2 of the 3 TD's.  As I said, he got them in that mess and no doubt, Rico gets credit as well, but missing on either of those 4th down conversions hands the ball over and results in 1 or 2 less TD's giving them a loss. As you said though, that's just a small quibble. The real question is how does the FO see it?  I am guessing they see it as something to build on. I think most peope here see it as a total loss and fully expect the FO to see it that way as well. Time will tell.

      Goalie play sucks

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      Kochetkov is just too streaky. TBD if Freddie is doing that too. Freddie is the more reliable goalie over his career. The Bussi kid looks like he could be a solid #2 eventually.  Just need to figure out the #1 guy. Same as almost every year. It's not talent, it's consistency and being able to step up in the playoffs.
