I really don't see what the panic is about myself.

I do... Allen played well down the stretch but who was it against? Dallas? Cleveland? Ciny?

We wait a long time to see a CB develop and as soon as it looks like he arrived we let him go? I don't like this move

Romo threw the ball for the third most yards in the league last year. They also had one of the top 1-2 combos in the NFL at WR, especially by year end.

Meither Dalton nor Weeden were top QBs, but they did have middle of the road numbers, and Dalton throws to one of the best WRs out there now.

It may be a bad thing, as I would prefer to have signed him, but it is hardly a tremendous loss...

When Ike leaves in a season or two? Then what?

It's a big loss. Don't sugar coat it.

[Slapstick]

We have a season or two to worry about it...

It's not that big of a deal...

You keep saying that when you see William Gay's back for three years.

Gay was not brought back to start opposite Taylor. He will play the slot which he has been good at doing. Lewis is the new starter opposite Taylor

I agree with Crash, lets not sugar coat this. It was a bad move period. Develop a young talent, then let him go. He wasn't a locker room cancer, or a me first player. Some act like finding a replacement for Ike will be easy. We already had his replacement. Why not let Ike walk and sign your young talent?

What if your young talent isn't as good as the other talent you have (Ike, Allen) on the roster? And isn't worth his contract demands (in your opinion)?

Lewis played at least as well as Taylor last season. Taylor for the for the first time in his career looked a step slower, got burnt, and looked very average at times. If and that is a big if, Taylor is still better than Lewis...the next question is for how much longer?

Until his contract runs out...

Romo also throws a bunch of WTF passes every game. Weeden sucks and Dalton throws to one guy only. Not sure if Allen was even covering him that game.

The Steelers could trade Ben, Pouncey, Troy, and Timmons and Slap here would agree with it.
