Confident Tony Romo Nowhere To Be Found
The Dallas Morning News
GLENDALE, Ariz. - His right hand packed in ice afterward, Tony Romo hid the famous dimples behind a mask.
Nothing to smile about anyway, right?
Not after you lose a sloppy overtime game to the Cardinals, 30-24, in front of a schizoid crowd of 64,389, half Cards, half Cowboys, polar opposites forced by wayward allegiances to sit side by side, cheek to cheek.
And if that scene wasn't weird enough, you witnessed the Cowboys quarterback's continued retreat into a shell.
The numbers say he completed 61 percent of his passes for 321 yards and three touchdowns in a 30-24 overtime loss to Arizona.
The body language? This is not the quarterback we thought we knew.
When he's feeling it, Romo wears his heart on his sleeve. He's an infectious presence on a team that has thrived on his...

Romo Has Broken Finger
The Dallas Cowboys' nightmare of a week just got even worse this morning, as news is filtering out of Big D that star quarterback Tony Romo has a broken pinkie finger on his throwing hand and is expected to be sidelined around four weeks.
Romo is believed to have suffered the injury on the first play of overtime of Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss at Arizona, when he was sacked by the Cardinals' Chike Okeafor. The Pro Bowl signal-caller had thrown for 321 yards and three touchdowns on the afternoon.
If the initial prognosis is correct, Romo would miss three games and return to action for a key showdown at division-rival Washington, which dealt the Cowboys' a stinging two-point loss last month, on November 16. Dallas has a bye the week prior to that game.
However, the standout triggerman appears likely to miss a crucial clash with the...

Cowboys\' Romo Has Broken Finger, May Miss 4 Weeks
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo has a broken finger on his throwing hand and could be out for up to four weeks.
Romo broke his right pinkie on the first play of overtime in a 30-24 loss at Arizona on Sunday, according to a posting on the team's official Web site. The team had no immediate comment, though players responded to the news.
The injury leaves the Cowboys (4-2) with 40-year-old Brad Johnson as the starter for Sunday's game at St. Louis. Johnson, who won a Super Bowl with Tampa Bay, hasn't started a game since 2006 in Minnesota.
Neither Romo nor Johnson was in the locker room Monday when it was open to reporters.
When linebacker Greg Ellis was told about Romo's broken finger, he got a somewhat stunned looked on his face and exclaimed, "Wow!" Bradie James said the players will have to rally around each other.

Cowboys QB: Injured Tony Romo Out; Healthy Brad Johnson In

Tony Homo ( Romo ) Is Hurt !!
Tony Romo broke the pinkie on his throwing hand in overtime in Sunday's loss to Arizona. Romo is expected to miss the next four weeks, one of which is a bye.
Brad Johnson is the appropriate pick-up. He's a must-add player for Week 7, since the Cowboys travel to St. Louis. The 40-year-old Johnson isn't quite as interesting in Week 8 against Tampa, however, or in Week 9 at New York. His playmaking days are behind him -- like, five or six years behind him.
If your fantasy team is 4-2 or 5-1 right now, stop reading and go make a respectable offer for Romo. The injury impacts the value of every Dallas skill position player, of course, but not so much that you'd sit any of them.
We'll have more on this as details emerge. For now, enjoy the comments over at the Dallas Morning News' Cowboys...
