Are we living witnesses of a new era, or a new legend?

I've never seen anything like this.

The odd thing is, if Romo would have struggled just a bit more, I'd almost feel more comfortable thinking he's the real deal.

But so far, this has all been fantasyland so it's a bit hard to grasp.

That said, yeah, I think we have our next great QB.

I go back a little further to the first QB who was only 5'6". Sorry I can't think of his name right now.

I could be mistaken as both Staubach and Aikman had the prototypical size and skills but I really think Romo IS the QB of the present and the future for Dallas. If he is, it will be a tremendous relief not to have to worry about a QB for the next several years.

This will be a good time to remember and I hope this thread turns to be real and that Romo becomes the next Aikman

Romo's season to date has the feel of Kurt Warner's 1999 season. It is a perfect storm of a guy who understands the system, is surrounded by an embarrasment of riches at the skill positions, and has a skill set that is ideal for the offense he is running.

I'm not suggesting that Romo shares Warner's skill set. In fact, I think they are very different skill sets, and I think Romo's skills are more versatile.

I agree. this is almost too real. The guy can't be "that good". When does he screw up? The two passes to barber were both pro-bowl quality.

This season is beginning to feel like the start of the dynasty in the 90's. The mistake to avoid is addition by subtraction. There needs to be addition w/out subtraction as far as players go. It would be a good insurance move to keep Bledsoe as a backup. A team needs two capable players at all positions due to injury.
