Sean Payton and Bill Parcells knew Tony Romo was going to be good...he was on that team the entire time...Drew Henson was a Jerry Jones signing and was always 3rd string behind Romo...fans were getting pissed that Quincy Carter was playing and wanted to see the guy they gave up a 2nd round pick for, and the season was going nowhere so Parcells did his classic 'fine you can see what we see so you
' and Henson sucked...
They brought in Bledsoe and Romo continued to beat out Henson for the #2 despite Henson having a big contract...and before the final year Henson started the extended Romo before the season started because they knew he was going to unseat Bledsoe and wanted him to play for cheap the next two years so they could evaluate him.
Payton picked out Romo from the combine QB's that weren't even invites...just there to throw some passes. I wish we had an eye for talent at that position like Sean Payton.
(Didn't hurt that Payton was a stud QB at EIU...just like Romo...)
