Madden : Billy , any time you lose your starting quarterback , and this is assuming Tony Romo is out , it is going to have a big impact because it is the passing game and the NFL is a quarterback league . The other thing is the team is built for that quarterback . You look at the Cowboys and they are built for Tony Romo being able to throw the ball deep to Terrell Owens and getting the ball to Jason Witten and running with Marion Barber .
