With that o-line, poor play calling, and no running game I'm surprised how good Romo has been. You try standing back there, knowing your going to get hit, while the o-line blocks no one, and your HC/OC keeps calling slow developing passing plays again and again. This guy is carrying the team. Give him some help and great things will happen.

You are correct. He played with one of the worst O lines in the NFL, and had no running game to rely on.

But don't let that get in the way of your thinking.

Does Dellhome have franchise records to his name that he had to surpass levels 2 Hall of Fame and Super Bowl winning QBs to achieve?

Sorry for spoiling this poo-poo-on-Romo party.

Trent Dilfer: "Tony [Romo] has greatness in him. I think when you talk to other people that really play the quarterback position, there's a few guys that really have incredible greatness in them, and Tony is one of them. I think the issue here is he needs more help from his teammates. I think they are not nearly as talented as people say they are, from 1 to 53. I'm talking about the total roster.”

Romo does allot of good things but he also blows it on national tv with the world watching. What do you expect people to think. As cowboy fans we want Tony to be successful , every other fan loves it when he chokes. If tony started for the giants, eagles, or redskins , i would have a field day throwing him under the bus and dogging their team out. Heck i gave eagle fans heck about Mcnuggett choking in the champoinship games and the superbowl, and Tony chokes atleast 3 times more often than him. Though its against my better judgement, i still hold out hope that if we get a different playcaller,and especially fix our offensive line and take pressure off of Tony Romo, he will get the last laugh and wear a superbowl ring.

Wow, worse than expected.

.
The fact you took that as truth is telling

Exactly what game..any game...ever..has Romo had a QB rating of 20?
In the win and go home loss at the Giants last year his rating was over 100.
Even that Washington disaster was probably triple that number. He did have 2TDs as well to go with the picks.

But I'm sure those 12 years of elementary school were the best years of your life.
Just doggin you

That low QB Rating stat was before the Washington debacle. Via ESPN Stats.

Figures.

Those guys need to check their stats. Tony has had a few really nasty games, but you'll always see that even if it's a 3-4 pick game he'll also have some TDs. It's never (not even once) a 3-4 pick game with zero TDs like some of the others (cough, Eli, Cutler, Ryan, etc).
He had three bad games this year, for example. Only one bad game in the last 9...but it was a doozy.

So, even the really horrifc Washinton outing, Romo had a QB rating of 55.9.
A rating of 20 is hard to do of you also have TD passes...probably impossible. I'm pretty sure in his entire career Romo hjas never chalked up a 20.

I believe the poster's sig is referring to ESPN's QBR rating system, which works on a different scale than the traditional qb rating we all grew up with.

That would make sense.

Big difference between a QB rating and an ESPN QBR Rating.

Delhomme was good enough for awhile he seemed like a Top 10 QB, but it's a decade later.
