    I really hope he doesn't. Last thing we need is for the AFC to get even more uncompetitive than it already is.

    Heard he would have to write the Steelers an $18 Million check if he retires. Plus his base salary, he would be walking away from $54 Million total.

    If he leaves, Romo should seriously consider Pittsburgh. Brown, Bryant, and Bell. Nice combo.

    Oh s---.... lol I didn't even think of that. I kind of hope that happens but then don't because a Cowboys v Steelers SB with Romo in a Steelers uniform would k--- me.

    The gap between the Pats and the rest of the AFC is really wide right now, and I don't see it changing by next year. Pats also will probably be trading Jimmy G for a first rounder (even though I'm against this), so they're probably going to have two first rounders in the upcoming draft as well.

    Houston and Denver are actually the two teams with any remote chance against the Pats. They both need a QB though. Both should be selling out for Jimmy G or Romo, but they most likely won't.

    And I'm even taking into account Brady's decline. The Pats are head and shoulders above the AFC, and they'll probably get better in the off-season.

    And the Raiders if they vastly improve their defense.
