Who was the better QB: Romo vs Rivers

[darthseinfeld]

Both were tiered similarly throughout their career. Who would you say was the better QB

Last week it was romo vs dak. This week romo vs rivers. Next week romo vs ??? Let the man enjoy his time in the booth and links.

Romo was the better QB but just couldn’t stay healthy so I think Rivers will go down in history as the better player based on what he was able to do over 16 years.

Easy call.

 

[percyhoward]

Rivers was the better QB in the 1st quarter of a game. From the 2nd quarter on, and especially late in close games, it was definitely Romo.

So, Romo.

Late & Close 2004-18
4th qtr/OT, one-score game
1 Wilson 101.8
2 Romo 100.5
3 Rodgers 99.4
4 Manning 95.6
5 Luck 94.4

25 Rivers 78.2

If one is better than the other, it's not by a whole lot.

 

[ClappingCarrot]

If we are talking about total career, Rivers just for his statistical accomplishments.

If we are talking QB acumen and throwing the football, probably Romo.

If we are talking about impregnating women, definitely Rivers.

 

[ScipioCowboy]

They’re very similar QBs who should’ve been much more successful than they were.

They both suck!! Neither won a SB, so they aren't as good as Dilfer!!

I think Romo extended more plays with his elusiveness to get the stats he got, so I'd go with Tony.

Is it 2009?

Inject this into my veins

I don't know what Tony Romo's problem was. If I was to speculate. He was an individual. He had a BFF. I just don't think he was a people person until he got married.

Romo vs Madden?

Trent Dilfer, the God of all mediocre kids!

 

[DallasInDC]

Easy call.

I love Romo’s Moxy...although he was lucky he didn’t get a flag for that.

Is it me does Allen look like he is half the size of everyone else?

 

[viman96]

Easy call.

Just to add a couple more Romo gifs

I have no idea. Did Rivers go to an AFC Championship game?

I hope Rivers becomes a commentator in the booth. He has a great personality.
