I admittedly started reading some of this info expecting to be pessimistic. But I was unexpectedly humbled. They are close in all of the key categories albeit it with Dak having better numbers.
We know neither plays their best ball in the playoffs. But for those who question Daks mental capacity to play the QB position vs. Romo these numbers show that is flat out not the truth.
Tony Romo had a .550 winning percentage against teams with a winning record (.500 or better) in his NFL career. This means he won 55% of his games against teams that were also above .500 at the time.
Dak Prescott has a win percentage of 62.3% against teams that finished the season above .500. This means he's won 28 out of 45 games against teams with a winning record.
Tony Romo's average touchdowns per year over his 13-year NFL career was approximately 18.5. During his time with the Dallas Cowboys, Romo threw for a total of 248 touchdowns in 13 seasons, resulting in an average of 19.1 touchdowns per year.
Dak Prescott averages approximately 25 touchdowns per season since 2016. This translates to an average of 7.5 touchdowns per game.
Tony Romo's 3rd-down conversion rate on throws, since 2001, was 45.1%. This places him among the top quarterbacks in the league, with a rate comparable to others like Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers.
Dak Prescott has a career 63.4% completion rate on 3rd down attempts, with 1,978 passing yards and 11 touchdowns in 76-46-0 passing attempts. He has also thrown for 11 touchdowns on 3rd down plays. His 3rd down completion percentage is 66.8%, and his yards per attempt on 3rd down is 7.6.
