Yep. Sure is, if you count a 5 INT, 1 fumble game as being leagues ahead of campbell.
One game doesn't negate all the others... at this point, Tony Romo has started 16 games, and is 11-5 as a starter... Campbell is 5-7 as a starter...
Romo has completed 63.1 per cent of his passes as a starter (59.5% this year), Campbell has completed 55.5 per cent (58.7% this year)...
Romo has averaged 288.1 yards per game as a starter (284.5 yards per game this year), Campbell has averaged 198.6 yards per game (217.2 yards per game this year)...
Romo has averaged 8.6 yards per attempt as a starter (8.5 YPA this year), Campbell has averaged 6.7 yards per attempt (7.2 YPA this year)...
Romo has put up a 94.5 quarterback rating as a starter (93.5 this year), Campbell has put up a 78.4 (81.1 this year)...
So yes, even with that 5 int, 1 fumble game, Tony Romo has significantly better stats than Jason Campbell has put up, in every major statistical category...
Yes, romo truly is god, isnt he? When he has 5 INTS against the 31st ranked defense in the NFL, and an astounding QB rating of just 44. :laugh2:
1 bad ball game doesn't negate all the brilliant ball games... and I guess Jason didn't put up a robust 54.2 quarterback rating against the Fins this year, or a 52.2 QBR against the Falcons last year (who ranked 6th in HIGHEST quarterback rating allowed, at 88.8)...
By the way, the skins run a run-first offense, with emphasis on ball control and limiting mistakes. The offense is not very wide open. Thats the reason why Jason doesnt have massive stats every week.
And why do they do that, when they're just 16th in the league in total offense?? Why, because they're AFRAID to trust Jason Campbell to put the team up on his shoulders and lead them to victory... they clearly have no confidence in him, so they play it safe...
He's not brett favre throwing it 50 times a game. That fact is lost among you cowboy homers.
Actually, it's not lost on us at all... it's YOU who haven't figured out what that "run-first offense, with emphasis on ball control and limiting mistakes" is all about... here's a hint, focus on the "limiting mistakes" part; the Skins are playing not to lose, not playing to win... this is why you guys are in tight ball games in virtually every game, even when you play teams you should dominate (like the Fins)...
It's also why the Boys 33.8 points per game, while the Skins average 20.2... and that's with a 34 point outburst against the hapless Lions (giving up an average of 31 points per game, 5th worst in the NFL)... in their other 4 games, the Skins are averaging 16.75 points per game, or less than half what the Boys have averaged per game... their 27 points against the Pats was their lowest point output of the year; the Pats had been allowing an average of 11 points per game going into last Sunday...
