Can Romo beat out these college QB's in TC?

[Cochese]

OMG!

Where did I write that?

Would you feel better, if I included some D2 QB's?

You just can't accept the fact, that Romo has done nothing, but play in meaningless preseason games that don't count.

And what is your point?

Your savior D-1 QB's have done anything in the NFL?

 

[needforspeed]

You think Romo is a vet? At what...holding a clipboard??

Neither have thrown a pass in the NFL and that's why I started this thread.

HELLOOOOOO...

Neither had Kurt Warner, Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisberger, Troy Aikman, or numerous others for that matter. That didn't make them busts. Just inexperienced. Chill out, man.

I made my point and that was Romo has done nothing so far in the NFL.


If you're so confident in him, why not just say he CAN beat all those QB's I mentioned above.

Are you having some difficulty doing that?

I just dont understand the point of the original post.

What are you trying to prove?

Yes, we all know Romo hasnt seen the field yet, how do you change that? You put him in and see what he can do.

Of course he can beat out some college players who have never been in an NFL practice before.

I believe he can beat out Bledsoe right now....

Who? Romo or those college players?

Now, at least we're getting somewhere.

Romo can beat out any of those college QB's because....

1. He has practiced with NFL players
2. He has played against NFL players, albeit in preseason games.
3. He has watched NFL film and defensive strategies the last 3 years.

Would you agree with this?

A simple question and a legitimate one for all the Romosexuals on this forum. Take into account, this may be Parcells last year in Dallas and a whole new coaching staff (system) could be here in 2007.

Based on these two quotes, are you asking that if given an even playground, whether Romo can beat out those college QBs? If so, I still say Romo would beat out the young guns...

If that's not what you're asking, then I'm not sure I'll ever get it.

 

[Crown Royal]

This is ridiculous. Not a single one of us knows. We haven't seen him play outside of training camp, and haven't seen a single of those teams play NFL level competition.

These QB threads are kinda dumb. I am all for benching Bledsoe, but that isn't because I 'know' Romo can do the job, more because I feel like I know what we have in Bledsoe. Anyone who 'knows' what we have in Romo is kidding themselves - he is an unknown at this point. That's why he is attractive.

 

[Silverstar]

100% agree.

Ok then, now let's fast forward to TC next year.

We draft a QB, Jerry signs him to a long term contract, he comes in and goes to some QB meetings, practices with the team, plays some in the scrimmages, plays in the preseason games and even starts some. He shows tremendous talent and even out performs Romo in practice and in preseason games too.

Do you still go with Romo, because he was already here?

Or do you go with the rookie who simply outplayed him?


That's what I want to find out...just how loyal are you to this guy (Romo) who has done nothing so far IMO, to garner such praise.

How do you know a rookie will outplay him? How do you know we draft a QB? You are assuming entirely too much.

I was very impressed with Romo this preseason. Not sure I would consider myself a Romosexual. You want to define that term:laugh2:


I think people are making to much of the fact that Romo hasn't thrown a regular season pass. I don't see this as a legit reason he can't take over.

He's been learning, watching and performing (all be it in a controlled environment) for four years.
I can assure you we will see very quickly what he's made of. What I mean is that he will be very close to what he'll be long term almost immediately. Look at some other examples of successful guys who kind of came out of nowhere

Warner spent a few years in arena and NFL Europe and I believe one full year on St Louis' bench. He was a seasoned guy who knew the system. He wasn't a rookie. He was exceptional from the first drive. He was no better in week 4 week 8 or week 16. He had "it".

Delhome spent three years with very little to no actual playing experience. He was as good in his first start for Carolina as he is today. Good comparable to Romo. He has "it"

Brady took over for Bledsoe in week 3 or 4 in his second year. He did get better over his first season. There was upward curve for him, but he was only a second year player and still very good from day one. Obviously he has "IT" sqaured.

I think Romo the next guy. Including him in this group is not going to sound so silly fairly soon. I believe he has "it". I love the way the ball comes off his hand. He's smooth, accurate, calm, confident. To me he seemed to make alot of quick and good reads, pre-snap and post-snap. Just seemed like he knew where he wanted to throw it quickly and always seemed to be right. Even though he seemed to be so technically precise, he wasn't mechanical he showed the ability to improvise.
I felt like I was watching something special. I see some Montana in his game.

Let me just say this. I was a Henson guy. Believed in him, wanted him to do well. I'm talking to a freind in the third quarter of our third preseaon game. This friend is complaining because Henson wasn't getting in. Coming into that game I wanted to see Henson, but by that time I didn't want Romo to come out! I was converted and not the least bit dissapointed when they cut Henson two days latter.

I like Bledsoe, nice guy had some real nice moments for us last year. I've defended him and still see a lot of positives in his game. But I think Romo is an upgrade, it's his time.

I don't know if we will draft a QB or not. This is all hypothetical, like so many other threads on this board. I just know, that Romo isn't much farther ahead of those top college QB's. Now, this is just my opinion based on what Romo has accomplished so far in the NFL....which is jack.

Therefore, it's not that hard for me to compare a rookie to Romo, unlike the Romosexuals out there who think he's our savior.

You dont know this, no fan knows this.

If another QB is brought in, I suppose you could say I would be loyal to him(Romo that is). He is home grown and has paid his dues, he deserves to have a chance.

Maybe he'll get it on another team.

Ok?

I doubt it though, the coaches like Tony, coaches around the league like Tony. He is going to get a chance if you like it or not.

Hey, I can only wish Romo will turn into another scrambling Staubach, but right now he's just a backup. He'll never beat out Bledsoe, unless Bledsoe get injured or keeps throwing INT's, but secretly wishing for Bledsoe to throw more INT's is really sick. Unfortunately, I feel like that's what a lot of (so called) Cowboy fans are hoping will happen, just so Romo can play and they can say crap like..." I told you so!" or "it's about time!"

I'm not one of them....thank God.
