The Dallas Cowboys will keep Jason Garrett for the 2014 season.

Garrett has a 24-24 record over the past three seasons.

The Dallas Cowboys aren't expected to have Tony Romo starting at quarterback this week, but the Philadelphia Eagles are preparing for all possibilities.

“This team isn't going to fall for the banana in the tailpipe trick this week," said Chip Kelly.

The winner of the Sunday Night game between the Cowboys and Eagles will win the NFC East to secure a playoff spot.

Tony Romo felt better but not "overly comfortable" on Wednesday as the Dallas Cowboys prepare to face the Philadelphia Eagles with a trip to the playoffs on the line.

Romo did not practice as he continues to receive treatment on his injured back.

The Cowboys have not ruled out Romo even though he needs surgery to repair a herniated disk.

Tony Romo is out for the season with a back injury.

Romo underwent an MRI on Monday.

Kyle Orton is likely to start Week 17 for the Dallas Cowboys against the Philadelphia Eagles with a playoff berth on the line.

Tony Romo will undergo an MRI on his back, which was in pain after the Dallas Cowboys' last-minute win over the Washington Redskins.

"I tweaked it in the game," Romo said, per the Cowboys' official website. "For whatever reason, just the twist or whatever that was, definitely just made it not feel comfortable."

"We think it'll be OK, but it was a tightening --  it wasn't a contusion," Jerry Jones said. "It was a little tight, but they're working on him and we'll work on that all week. He really had a little of it in practice, to give you an idea, this past week -- just a little tightness."

DeMarco Murray has been unhappy with the game management of Tony Romo this season.

"DeMarco Murray, their star running back, grumbled to teammates about not getting the ball enough," Rapoport said Sunday morning before Week 16. "He doesn't understand why Romo always seems to choose pass instead of run. ... The relationship between Romo and Murray is frosty, a little bit of a growing rift there. It's surprising that some pettiness should creep in at a crucial point of the season, but that's what's happening."

Murray ranks 17th in rushes per game with 14.8.

"When you talk to people who know Bill Callahan, the play caller, they say he's a run-first play caller," Rapoport said. "But it hasn't always turned out like that."
