Drew Bledsoe knew his interception near the goal line just before halftime was a horrible play. He never thought it might be the last pass he’d throw for the Dallas Cowboys.
Bledsoe’s demotion became official Wednesday when Bill Parcells said Tony Romo, who took over at quarterback in the second half Monday night, will make his first career start Sunday night at Carolina.
“It’s a very, very disappointing situation for me, but I can’t go back and change it,†said Bledsoe, in his 14th season. “Obviously, I would like to be the guy still, and I really in my heart of hearts believe that I give us the best chance to win.â€Â
Parcells doesn’t think so anymore, and is doing something he rarely has done  changing quarterbacks in midseason. The coach often has been loyal to veteran quarterbacks, including 41-year-old Vinny Testaverde through a 6-10 Cowboys season two years ago.
But, this time, Parcells is benching the player he drafted No. 1 for the New England Patriots in 1993.
Bledsoe’s critical interception in a 36-22 loss to the New York Giants came when the Cowboys (3-3) had a chance to take the lead in a game to determine first place in the NFC East. Bledsoe already had been sacked four times, once for a safety.
