Decade of Futility - Chad Hutchinson Was Once Said To Be The Next Roger Staubach

Nicknamed "Roger The Dodger" for an uncanny elusive streak while on the run, Roger Staubach is 

recognized by many as the greatest Dallas Cowboys player of all time.
How did it happen then that Cowboys rookie quarterback Chad Hutchinson - a pure pocket passer if there ever was one - found himself mentioned multiple times in the same breath with Staubach before he even took to the field?

Decade of Futility - For First Impressions, Alex Barron Was Unforgettable

It was most certainly a noticeable first impression that garnered Alex Barron national attention in September of 2010.  In his first game as a member of the Dallas Cowboys, Barron was filling in for an injured Marc Colombo at right tackle in a season-opening tilt with rival Washington on Sunday Night Football.

And with the final seconds ticking off the clock and the Cowboys needing a miracle to escape from a 13-7 deficit, Barron assured himself a permanent place in the Cowboys’ hall of infamy on a high block that proved to be nothing short of lowdown.  In one brief instant fans witnessed a Redskins loss, a Barron gaffe, and a pre-season Super Bowl favorite falling victim to the clutches of mediocrity.

Tony Romo's Rib Injury Cause For Concern In More Ways Than One

Though recognized for his shortcomings in what has become dubbed recently as "win or go home" games, Tony Romo has never been regarded as an injury-prone quarterback.  That could change soon.
Going back to last December's season finale in Washington, Romo has now suffered rib injuries in back-to-back games.  And just because the two games are separated by nine months doesn't mean that fans should discount this statistic as rubbish. 
We all remember Romo's ill-fated fourth quarter deflated duck to Demarco Murray that ultimately eliminated the Cowboys from the playoffs last season.  That pass was one of many errant tosses that Romo delivered that night, courtesy of a first-quarter shot to the ribs.
Now, here we are approaching the second weekend of games in the 2013 season and Cowboys fans are salivating over what appears to be a golden opportunity to get out of the first month with a perfect record.
Their best chance to achieve such a feat is with an efficient Romo under center.
But is Romo healthy enough to deliver?
Sunday's tilt in Kansas City will tell us.
