5 Potential Landing Spots for Tony Romo This Offseason

Inside The Star

With the arrival of Dak Prescott on the scene in Dallas as the quarterback of the future, Romo's days are outnumbered in a Cowboys jersey. At 36 years old Romo isn't thinking about retiring yet and wants to prove that he still has something left in the tank. Here are 5 teams that'll be in the market for Romo's services this offseason.

1. Houston Texans

The Texans still have are without a reliable starting quarterback on their roster after the Brock Osweiler debacle. Despite Osweiler throwing 16 interceptions in 14 starts the Texans still managed to win the AFC South. With Romo under center, the Texans could finally contend for a Super Bowl.

2. Denver Broncos

John Elway is always looking to make a splash and acquiring Romo is a risk their organization is willing to make. Romo wants to win a ring before his career ends and the Broncos have the defense to help him do it. He could go to Denver to obtain his ultimate goal of a championship and tutor first round pick Paxton Lynch.

3. New York Jets

Right now the Jets have no idea who their quarterback will be next season the Ryan Fitzpatrick experiment is over, Geno Smith is recovering from a torn ACL, Bryce Petty struggled when he was given a chance to start and rookie Christian Hackenberg wasn't active for a game until week 17. With Brandon Marshall, Eric Decker and Matt Forte the Jets have enough offensive weapons for Romo to succeed in the Big Apple.

4. Arizona Cardinals

If Carson Palmer retires Romo could step right in as his replacement. Going into the 2016 season the Cardinals were picked by many experts to contend for the Super Bowl but Palmer regressed on the after a career year last season. This may be Romo's best option other than the Broncos if wants his shot a Super Bowl ring.

5. Jacksonville Jaguars

Blake Bortles hasn't lived up to the hype after being selected third overall in the 2014 draft so his time may be up in Jacksonville. The Jaguars have one of the youngest rosters in the league and are in need of veteran like Romo to help them make their first playoff appearance since 2007.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
