Im sorry but Romo never won anything meaningful even when he had very very good teams. I don’t want to nit pick but his record in the playoffs speaks for itself and no amount of excuse making will change it
The reality is that Dak and Romo are (were) both above average but inconsistent QBs who were giddy and happy to just be the Cowboys QB and paid well and be a celebrity
They don’t have it in them to rise to the occasion and play consistently good football for 4 consecutive games against the best teams in the playoffs
I can honestly say that I wish neither of them had become a QB for us because they kept us above average and competitive which gave Jerry the perfect excuse to do nothing
Well, I did say to argue the point is peeing in the wind.
Romo > Dak.
that is my opinion. But I'm getting all upset if someone diagrees.
I won't go into degrading Dak but on Romo's behalf.....
3 of the 4 playoff losses in his era were beyond fluky.
- 2006..I mean, who puts their starting QB out there on special teams? Plus then there's the ball itself, which is another story. Zero to do with him as a QB though. In fact Romo the QB drove them down for that go-ahead FG.
- 2007..the game-winning TD pass with under 20 seconds left...again, he did his job at church time there as QB. can't throw it any better after leading them down the field for what should have been the win.
- 2014..and then the Dez thing. Maybe we win, maybe not, but it was weird and the only incomplete pass the whole half.
Call it excuses. I don't care. They are facts
As a QB, in crunch time in those games, he did what he needed to do.
