I said "helped" make them top 3's. IIRC, TO's best stats were with Romo throwing to him. I may be wrong on that, but I seem to remember it that way.
I agree it takes a team. I was just making the point that without Romo, those players may not have become the upper echelon players they did.
Romo didn’t help make T.O. Great. He was already a great player before Romo. T.O. Was highly productive with every QB he played under.
It’s also probably dismissive of Witten to say the same thing to be honest.
Either way, football is a symbiotic sport. They all rely on each other to help each other play well. That’s true.
But guys like Pappy who I was responding to, don’t see it that way and don’t make arguments to that effect. He likes to blame the poor passing offense to start last season solely on the QB. When we had arguably the worst wide receivers and tight ends in the entire league. Doesn’t equate ya know.
