4-1.
Romo: 15-4
4-1.
Romo's 15-4 since 2014, and there's no doubt in anyone's mind that we'd be at least 4-1 this season if Romo was playing.Romo stans are intent on ruining all of the positive energy going on right now just to see their boy start again. Everybody should have jumped off that bandwagon after yesterday.
Dak is playing incredibly, but with a similar running attack in 2014 Romo generated 3.5 more points per game. It's also worth noting that 5 weeks in we have 1 win against a winning team and two wins against 1-4 teams.
When Romo is fully healthy he will be back in. If he gets hurt again then Dak is ready, and even better we don't have to think about drafting a QB for another 10 years. That's pretty amazing.
After 2017 Romo may well be gone. I would love for him to win a Super Bowl, but if we don't think of the money we can spend on defense for 2 years without a huge QB salary. That could be our best window since the 90's.
WAKE UP! Its not 2014 ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Romo is older, suffered another injury....developed rust....and did not look THAT great in 2015!!!!!
I would not be surprised if the Pakers go down hard to the Dak pak from big D.Dak leads Dallas to a win in Green bay next week to improve their record to 5-1, there's no way you can take the starting job away from Dak......
The 2014 offense's edge in points is the result of having about an extra possession and a half per game, due to takeaways and faster pace.
Drives per game
2014 10.6
2016 9.2
Points per drive
2014 2.62
2016 2.80
% of opp drives ending in turnovers
2014 17.3
2016 9.1
Also, the quality of defenses on the schedule is about the same, according to Football Outsiders. In 2014, we played the 21st-hardest schedule of defenses. Going into yesterday, we'd played the 24th-hardest, with the Bengals' defensive DVOA ranking 17th.

I mean heck, even I've long since moved on and know Dak is the way to go. lolRomo stans are intent on ruining all of the positive energy going on right now just to see their boy start again. Everybody should have jumped off that bandwagon after yesterday.
Romo is a better QB, that is only questioned by emotional trainwrecks. Not by sane people.

Last I checked 4-1 was a better win %Romo: 15-4
Percy can be pretty awesome at times.Wow, that is some impressive research! Well done.

You do realize Romo had a healthy oline and Dez for the first five right?

Not if Dez caught it.Last I checked 4-1 was a better win %
The defense and running game won that game for us yesterday.....Romo stans are intent on ruining all of the positive energy going on right now just to see their boy start again. Everybody should have jumped off that bandwagon after yesterday.
Think about what you just said and ask yourself what Romo did for you to even bring that up. The last time Romo was healthy all season, the Cowboys were 12-4 and Romo lead the entire league in QBR rating by over a full 5 points. (Aaron Rodgers in 2nd place at 77.4 to Romo in 1st at 82.62)
I think it's more likely that you're overthinking the situation because the emotion of what's happening on the field is blurring your logic. The league is still learning who Dak is. Don't even think for a second that his tough times aren't coming, because they are. They do for all young QBs.
Mentally Romo is one of the best QBs in the league. To push him aside because of a rookie after 5 after is nuts.
