Dak or Romo All being Equal

[cowboybish]

I know it's been debated before but all things being equal - in their prime... who do you want as QB of the Cowboys.

In big games, Romo made some bone head plays but he shown up.

Dak has failed to show up several times.

Romo tried doing to much in big games.

Dak just chokes in big games and does not start scoring until the game is out of reach

To me it's a dead heat, there's some things Romo was better at than Dak, but it goes the other way as well.

I would say Romo had the better deep ball and had more big play potential. Sometimes that would come at a cost as well.

Dak through most of his career had the better legs and could do more on the ground.

Romo had 3 10+ win seasons
Dak has had 4 10+ win seasons

I really hope Dak can seperate from this dead heat with more playoff success and become the clear leader. It just all feels too similar right now.

Romo by a mile.
His biggest problem was rotten luck at the worse times.

Romo. He made boneheaded mistakes but he never had the deer in the headlight look. Both weren't good enough though to overcome this FO.

This! Dak can’t read defenses anything like Romo could. Daks only advantage was his running, which has now been removed. Dak was never a great passer but his legs made him a combo threat. Now he doesn’t have that and his head and arm are pretty meh, always were.

a few years ago I would have said Dak became Romo’s week to week health was too unreliable…

But now all things may actually be equal

Romo no contest.

Romo had the quicker release, the better arm talent, more pocket awareness, and he understood schemes better. Hell, I remember him having to yell at receivers to just line up correctly on the field before the play was ran. Romo was a gunslinger. Dak has had better teams then Romo imo and is a better leader.

2016, 2021, and 2022 Cowboys all go to the NFCCG or Super Bowl with a prime, healthy Romo at QB.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Dak all day, any day.

They are the exact same player. I mean there is literally no differentiation between them. Even the plays they don't make are mirrored. It's crazy.

Romo, and it's not even remotely close.
