Great data......prayers that Romo and Witten can get a ring before they hang it up. We need health AND current coaching and management to not get in the way.

So basically...Romo is the best in the NFL in the 4th qtr when it's tied or the team is down 1 score.

What I Love: Absolutely destroying haters with this kind of stuff (I especially when they say something to try to impress their girlfriends)

What I Miss: I hardly hear the hate anymore. It's like they've given up.

This just in: Romo is really, really good.

In crunch-time, there aren't many QB on the planet that you'd rather have your team's chances riding on. There are maybe 4 or 5 guys that I'd take before Romo and that is about it.

Pete Carroll probably said it best in 2014 after Dallas went to Seattle and beat his team (both on the scoreboard and physically): Tony has always had a little magic in him.

Romo is the male QB equivalent of a jia ren. You hardly ever see one like them. They are unique.

Agree completely. (psst hey Jobber... what is a jia ren?)

A jia ren is a woman who is skilled in all things related to the ancient court of the emperor. She is beautiful without compare and unique in all the world. She sings, dances, plays go, converses with emperors and peasants alike and is loved by all.

If you listen to the Beauty Song performed by Zhang Zi Yi in House of Flying Daggers, she will sing of a Jia Ren. Bei fang you Jia Ren......From the north comes a rare beauty; a Jia Ren.

A cinch they weren't Classical Korean. During those times, parts were played by young males...

A week ago, I had a talk with a Giant fan...and surviving in Corpus Christi. It was on 4th quarter successes. I gave the usual numbers of comebacks and QR for the leaders...this would have knocked it out of the water.

Thanks as always, Percy...

 

[WillieBeamen]

I wont lie, prior to 2013, I did not trust this guy in the 4th quarter at all (2012 finale haunted me the most). Now, I wouldnt choose any current QB in clutch situations over Romo. I dont kno what he did to improve, but theres simply no better QB in those situations.

They channel it to a different directive...or go back to a fall back one. Whatever fits their "dislike" agenda at the time.

PH is the source, done through hard tedious stat crunching. This is something you won't see on BSPN...and if you did, would you ask them "where's the source"?

So ridiculous to even need to have that argument. But Im sure you heard Eli has 2 rings and.......Forget about the fact the giant pass rushers were terrorizing opposing offenses. Also please ignore that his WRS had to make historically epic catches in order to make old dumb face look good. Hes a chucker, Ive never seen a qb that threw up more trash and somehow his wrs come down with it lol. Dilfer has a ring too, I guess hes better than Tony. Tony is the Dirk of the NFL and until he gets that ring he will never get the respect he has earned. Broke my heart to see him walk out of Green Bay and break down in tears with his family after we got jobbed on a Dez catch that never hit the damn ground! The worst part of all is I truly believe him and Witten are class acts and they deserve that ring more than anyone.

 

[cowboyblue22]

if tony would of had some of the teams around him that troy and roger had he would already won a couple superbowls he is not the reason the lose he is usually the reason they win wont be any different this season.

Correct, facts do not matter to morons. They simply believe what they want to believe. Kind of like when I argue with my wife. Even when Im 100 percent right Im wrong.
