Was that the point?
Well the point was the Cowboys had some very good teams......and you randomly brought up Romo's "game winning drives"........
Was that the point?
Romo in 2006. We weren’t spiraling down with Bledsoe but it didn’t look very promising. Romo sparked us to a playoff appearance . That’s about as close a scenario I can think of within the parameters I laid out.The closest resemblance to what Amari is doing for us right now that I can remember is Miles Austin in 2009.
The premise of your thread was All Time Cowboys MVP, not, "Who turned the season around the most?". If that was what you were truly asking, then I might agree, but I don't consider Cooper more valuable than the guys I mentioned.But that wasn’t the narration of my thread. Details Runny.. Ha

1975 but that was about the Dirty Zozen propelling a non playoff team. Not one individual player. No one expected us to make playoffs after missing in 1974.
Romo walks on water. Hilarious. Let's review:So you or the other poster makes a claim he has game winning drives but don't even mention the context of those drives? Ok. Romo walks on water. Sorry. Forgot. where I was at.
*Pushes goalpost back to where it was*..
...greatest trade in Cowboys history to save a team and season from certain collapse.
It’s difficult spelling out the narration in a title .The premise of your thread was All Time Cowboys MVP, not, "Who turned the season around the most?". If that was what you were truly asking, then I might agree, but I don't consider Cooper more valuable than the guys I mentioned.
I’d call it a pretty certain speculation. LolThe above is your personal speculation.
“Certain collapse” was never certain and cannot be proven by FACT as being the inevitable conclusion of this season, had the Amari trade not been made.
Great trade, put tap the brakes a bit.
True but again they didn’t come into a spiraling season headed to a collapse on a non playoff team.Never saw a player more important to the team than than ES #22. Staubach at #2.
You might; others might not.I’d call it a pretty certain speculation. Lol
Romo walks on water. Hilarious. Let's review:
First statement: "...we are flawed at quarterback just like we were then except this time around our quarterback has a knack for showing up in the 4th quarter of games."
Conclusion: Prescott has performed better in the fourth quarter of games than his predecessor, Romo.
Counter statement: "Romo is tied at 19th in NFL history for game winning drives."
Conclusion: Romo may or did have more fourth quarter success than his successor, Prescott.
Counter-counter statement: "How many game winning drives does he have in the playoffs or win and get in games? Is he 19th all time in that too?"
Conclusion: Secondary counter-argument modified the initial statement identifying 'all' fourth quarter games into specific fourth quarter games pertaining only to either postseason contests or "elimination games".
A goalpost moved.
Then name another player who resurrected a spiraling Cowboy team in the fashion Cooper has since the trade?Cowboys All Time MVP! No, I wouldn't say All Time, maybe MVP the last couple of weeks. IMO, you need to be on the team longer than 5 years qualify for the All Time title.
Almost like saying DeMarco Murray is the greatest RB in Cowboy history because he set the single-season team rushing record. Um, No...
Randomly?...You brought up Romo, and how we now have a QB who shows up in the 4th qtr............How can you possibly try to deflect my response as randomly bringing up Romo's game winning drives?Well the point was the Cowboys had some very good teams......and you randomly brought up Romo's "game winning drives"........
That’s redirecting the question.How am I moving goal posts when you rebuttal who's better in 4th quarters you bring up what Romo did his WHOLE CAREER knowing Dak is only a 3rd year pro. But I'm the goal post mover?
I simply asked a question since we wanted to bring up he's 19th in game winning drives. IS he 19th in win or go home games and playoff games?
There weren’t many who at 3-5 thought this team was going to win the division or be a SB contender.You might; others might not.
