IRVING, Texas – Playing two games in five days will not be an issue for Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo.

Romo went through a full practice on Tuesday -- even if it was just a little bit faster than a walkthrough -- and will practice again on Wednesday as the Cowboys go through their red-zone and short-yardage plan.

“The game will be Thursday so you do everything you can to get yourself feeling at your best around 3:30 on Thursday,” Romo said. “That’s my job, and I’m going to wear out the mental side of it to get ready and to have the Eagles down cold by the time we get there.”

The stress of the Thanksgiving week is more mental than physical. The players have not worn helmets during the two practices so far. Romo said the Cowboys used their bye week to implement some plays that could be part of the game plan this week as a way to work ahead.

Romo has fared well on Thanksgiving in his career. The Cowboys are 6-1 in his starts and has thrown 18 touchdown passes to just six interceptions.

“I mean the mental challenge is there, but I’ve played in enough Thanksgiving games to understand what is going to give you some advantages to the short week, to give you a leg up,” Romo said. “You’ve got to really grind it out. And you’ll be a little bit exhausted on the mental side of it but that’s a good thing in this sort of week.”
