Offensive coordinator Jason Garrett revealed after Sunday's game that the Cowboys never intended to put in Tony Romo (pinkie)

Romo was allowed to warm up before the start of the second half, but the score was too far out of reach to risk an in-game switch to an injured QB. "Tony was throwing the ball all right, but I don't know that he was ready to play," coach Wade Phillips added. "And it wasn't a situation where we were really in the game." Despite Brad Johnson's terrible effort, the Cowboys may not be in a rush to get Romo back for Week 8 against Tampa.
