Marino was a great QB but, by my particular standard which I happen to care about as a fan that appreciates certain larger accomplishments, Marino's statistical blitz was nice but hollow.

You realize Aikman never won a SB, right? The Cowboys did.

Right... & Romo has benefitted from contributing to a great collection of early deficits which have allowed him to amass a plethora of stats digging himself out of the hole he helped create. That's not just this year.

You realize Aikman led those Super Bowl winning Cowboys teams right? Or was that a crash test dummy that hit on those lasers to Irvin and other while handing off to Emmett as well ?

Aikman turned the ball over just as much while throwing less. Keep reaching though.

Reaching is not necessary here. Keep dangling though.

Read. React. Read. React. It is one of the basic strategies in football. No difference here... It would be a waste to try and help you understand. Just re-read the first post and try to imagine 12 Romo defenders didn't attack.

So is there even a point to this thread or did you think we just needed to know you don't think Romo is as good as Aikman?

I was just thinking out loud. Thanks for listening.

If Romo played with those teams from the 90s, I think there is a very good chance the Cowboys would have won all three games anyway. I mean, those teams were awesome. But that was so long ago.
