Dak vs Romo: Just the Facts

[ArtClink]

This image sums up the QB comparison nicely, I think. Both QB's have won two wild card games. Thoughts?

Both QB's have won two wild card games.

The only thing that matters. Only 4 playoff wins in all those years is pathetic.

 

[DoctorChicken]

Romo's arm talent was better and he improved with age.

Can someone say GARBAGE TIME.com

They both failed to take their team to the promised land, or even to the parking lot of the promised land. So funny that so many feel the need to compare them.

It's always to make one, or the other...look bad.

I rarely favor censorship.....buuuut.

in the end they were more sinned against then sinning because of Jethro and company

"Just the facts"

"There are lies, dam lies, and stats"

Why most people who understand deep analytics scoff at face value stats. More so for the media for click bait views and or fantasy leagues. Dont get me wrong it's a great starting point but so much goes into it such as supporting casts, eras, rules, ownership/GMs, coaching and etc. Granted the ownership won't matter in this debate.

In the end both quartebacks failed to bring the fans to the promise land however they are two completely different quarterbacks. Bias aside Romo was the superior quarterback and imo not even debatable at this point.

Jerry and the organization lucked into two average/above average quarterbacks and failed to do anything with them.

Waiting for my good friend KJJ to pop up any minute now. lmao

Romo's arm talent was better and he improved with age.

yet he was 2-7 in win or go home games.... not very good.
He had talent around him as well and couldn't get it done.

its comparing crap and declaring a winner because it smelled less bad!!!

Neither one of them were successful as QB of the Dallas Cowboys because they didn't or haven't taken the team to the SB. But if you are just evaluating the talent to play QB, there is no comparrison, Romo was a much better QB than Dak has been. Romo had a quicker mind, understood what the defense was doing and was tremendous with pre snap reads and his pocket presence is light years ahead of Dak. I personally think if you swap the times they played, Dak would not have been even close to as successful as Romo was with the OL Romo had most of his career. Flip that around, if 2014 Romo had the team that Dak has had for the majority of his career, he would have won a SB or two.

the win or go home game so called stat was brought up by Romo haters. To include late season games.
Funny this was never used to measure any other QB

Some of y'all need to really learn what average means..

I mean literally so far from above average are you kidding me there's 32 teams in the league both these players have been in the top five more than once in their careers and just recently Prescott was second MVP voting and should have been the MVP second team all pro led the league in scoring like I don't understand what you mean got lucky with the average?

no both were franchise quarterbacks, top ten in the league at worst and that's so far above the 16 line that would be called average.. these guys are both franchise quarterbacks..

they are very difficult to find and you want to call it luck, Tom Brady in the sixth round, Brock Purdy in the seventh round, you want to talk about luck the San Francisco 49ers couldn't have been more lucky after they made a huge mistake trading three first rounders for Trey Lance and ended up with Brock Purdy last player taken in the draft.. you don't call that luck and by the way they haven't won a Super Bowl in a long time, and I know they're better than us as far as championship game appearances but let's be real lots of teams get lucky with players and sometimes you need some luck...

I'm sick and tired of hearing the word average the team's 32 that would be 16 would be the average point and none of these quarterbacks ever at any point even as rookies it was rookie of the year that that's not average that's not above average above average would be like 12 these guys have been in the top ten their entire careers and have had many seasons at least three in the top five and in the MVP talk that is not above average....

Why don't you check at the bottom 20 quarterbacks in the league and let me know what average really looks like because I can tell you what it looks like even a guy like Geno Smith can be called slightly above average what Aaron Rodgers did last year people thought was bad no that's above average that's slightly average to above average now he used to be elite but those are what average looking quarterbacks look like not the ones who have 37 touchdowns and 10 interceptions 35 touchdowns and 9 interceptions and getting the MVP voting just recently and been part of number one offense is more than I can remember... You might wanna check statistics Prescott is also in the top 6 where he was in the maybe top 10 now and touchdown interception ratio I mean did you see those stats up there that's all time not just with the Cowboys the man has so many top 10 statistics against his own peers in the league let alone how he ranks all time with the Cowboys,

that's not average I get it we need to go further in the playoffs but please don't call it luck and don't call it average..

a huge appointment in team play in the playoffs and big games, yes...

 

[Big D]

They both had teams with defenses that couldn't stop the run and offensive coaches that wouldn't commit to it.
Jerry's been lucky with having these two simultaneously I'm not sure if we'll be as fortunate the 3rd time.

Agreed. At this point, wake me up when we are playing well in the 4th quarter of the playoff game leading to the NFC Championship lol.
