Quarterback Tony Romo's back injury is worse than anticipated.

Have we ever started a rookie QB and a rookie RB at the same time before?

I don't think so...saw an image this weekend showing that Quincy, Aikman, and Staubach are the only rookies to start the opener.

Saw that too but was wondering if it happened at any point during the season. Was Hambrick a rookie? Don't recall the RBs we had during Aikman and Staubach. For Aikman I know Paul Palmer but didn't we use another??

I think Roger Staubach and Calvin Hill were rookies together.

Looked it up and this is correct. NoDak is the Board Historian of the day.

I've had the exact same injury. Slipped trying to get a new furnace in the house, came down on my ass and crushed the L1 vertebrate. Figure 8 weeks minimum.

That seems about right.
