Need a win this week to clinch playoff spot.

Romo vs Skins
or
Brady vs Jets

Brady.

Romo has big days on thanksgiving day games.

I still wouldn't count on Romo over Brady. Go Brady all the way.

Brady (disclaimer Pats fan)...I see a great game even though Washington is in Dallas, RG3 is home as well

i really think romo is going to have a big game and all the projections have him ranekd over Brady, but it is really hard to bench brady.

[TurboCowboy]

Brady.

Here is my argument with myself below...

I understand the matchup is much more favorable to Romo and that his projected points are higher.  But, the Cowboys offensive line is a shambles.  Romo was sacked 7 times against Cleveland last week.  I just can't imagine benching Brady, but I know it's an important decision and with your season on the line, you'd hate to make the wrong one.  I would sleep easier if I were you knowing I went with a more skilled QB and trusted that instead of what I consider a giant gamble with Romo. Romo could end up with 4 picks, 5 sacks, and single digit performance, but then again, if he gets hot to Dez / Austin / Witten, he could have a massive day.  And, my guess is that Romo will be forced to go to the air over 40 times against the Skins. They can't run the ball, and it's likely going to be a Thanksgiving Day shootout!

Tough one pal.
