2012 Dallas Cowboys Championship Window Still Wide Open

I’m always intrigued when I hear talk of championship windows closing on a roster that has never produced a championship. 
I know the Cowboys owner and part-time spin doctor, Jerry Jones, recently said that he felt the window was closing on this team.  Some players disagreed on whether the window was closing, partially closing or still wide open.  
If you ask me, it just sounds like a lot of hot air coming through that open window, regardless of how open it still is or not.   
Being a life-long Cowboys fan, I thought I would break down exactly where the team stands, by reviewing the vital positions to any successful NFL team.  You know the spots that, every year, teams are trying to fill with top flight talent to then patch up the other spots.
First up is quarterback, as no position in football and maybe sports, is as vital to a team’s success as the man under center. The Cowboys have one of the best in the league in Tony Romo.   
Romo, who turned 32 in April, is coming off his best statistical year of his career and entering his seventh year as the Cowboys starting quarterback.  For whatever reason, the general sports media enjoys pinning all losses by the team on Tony, regardless of whether it’s valid or not.
