Dak vs Romo: Just the Facts

Dak played much weaker teams for a much longer period of time than Romo. Stats alone don’t tell the truth.

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...

I didn't read all that clusterfudge, but in the NFL, an average QB is a decent QB that has holes in his game. These two were the very definition of average.

You're thinking average, but comparing starters to guys who weren't good enough.

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.

Romo was notoriously bad w/ pre-snap reads. He was easily fooled and was the cause of many bad plays.

This thing started getting around when Romo was spewing presnap crapp as an announcer. For some very odd reason, people fell for it, something a thousand backup QB's from the NFL could do.
 
Let's not do this.....it's only going to go south. We know there's a divide. Let's focus on the recent combine, contract signings, upcoming draft, OTA, etc for 2025 season. Haters are going to come out like the roaches with the lights out......for what?......history is history. Time to spray.

Dak can outduel a superior QB. Brady/Wilson/Rodgers. He dueled Rodgers to a dead equal halt twice in 2016, but Rodgers made a hand of God throw that was just bad luck for us (like everything has been lately). Russell Wilson in 2018 was superior to McNabb or Stafford (Romo's only 2 playoff wins). So both of Dak's 2 wins were him outdueling BETTER QBs.

And he dueled Brady to a halt in 2021 in Tampa... but Brady came away slightly victorious. Then he outdueled him again in 2022, but this time Dak got the better of him.

Romo pfffftt?? Lol. Anytime he goes against a superior QB.... I know where my money is going LOL. Favre/Rodgers against Romo? LOL easiest choice ever.

Can you show pics wearing one of your many Dak jerseys? The posters in your bedroom will be nice, too.

Both sucked when it came to the only stat that mattered. There’s no way you watched both play and come away with Dak is the better QB. Fantasy football and Madden don’t count.

We know what average means and Dak is below avg performance in playoffs games.
This is why we discount the 50 point victories over crappy teams and the 2 td performances when he's down by 21 in the 4th quarter and the other team plays prevent. Dak has a ceiling and it's called having a nice season. Look at what Jayden Daniels did! Thier defense was crap too. That's what pedigree can bring you. Dallas hasn't had pedigree since Aikman. Throw Brady out of the equation because thats an anomaly.

Those that defend Dak against this analogy are either Dak homers, kin folks, Dak plants on here, big time MS ST. fans or they can only analyze a QBs performance based on what they see on a piece of paper.

For one, Romo didnt play in the 2013 season finale against Philly for the division. He was out with the herniated disk.

Two, he won a win or go home game the week before when he actually hurt his back. If the Cowboys lost that game, they wouldve been eliminated from the playoffs.


Now dont run and ignore this post

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

Thoughts, why are you comparing one overpaid underachieving QB, with another. What you should be saying is 'we should of moved on from both of them before their last contracts were given.

I'm just saying give me Dak against an elite QB... I think we have a chance. I don't think we have a chance with Romo. That Manning game was nice and all, but Dak has had more examples of outdueling superior QBs.

Dak's problem so far in his career has been against elite defenses. He's not able to move the ball against San Francisco, which has greatly hampered him down and prevented him (and us) for reaching greater heights.

lmao...Dak is better than Brady ever was, huh? You know, lover boy won't last the season. Also, did you know Dak does not love you, he has his gold digger already.

Our starting QB can't do it to save his life.

My goodness. The lack of awareness is astounding.

QB's don't duel each other. They don't go toe to toe with each other. How well or badly one QB plays has absolutely nothing to do with how well or badly the other QB plays. It is insane to evaluate QB's by how well or badly the opposing QB plays.

It get's even more perplexing though when you go on to say that Dak's only problem so far is that he stinks against elite defenses. Uhmmmm...... DUH!

Maybe if the 49's had prime Brady or Rodgers at QB instead of Purdy, Dak would have risen to the occasion and "outdueled" him?
