or a quality starter, or what have you.

Romo is good, but he's not going to win someone a Super Bowl. So unless you're planning on winning on behind a really strong D and run game, a la the Ravens and Steelers, you gotta get a different QB. But that's easier said than done. How long did it take them to even find Romo? It's not like they can just go and get one. He might be the best option regardless of his flaws.
