Wondered who'd pick up on that! :)

Only one defensive player.......hmmmmm uhh.

Can't name one worthy of that status. Lee is the closest and as good as he is you always worry about his availability. He made it last year, so hopefully he is going up.

Lol at any top 100 list that does not include Romo

Unless it was based only off of 2015, then it is completely unfathomable. In 2014 and his last full body of work--and what should be directly relevant to this year--he was crazy-good.

The fact that people do not rate Tony Romo as this teams best player is pretty foolish.

He is the best player on the team and one of the best in the league. The only teammate Romo has ever had that was legitimately a better player than he was/is has been Demarcus ware. Romo/Witten/Ware. All fantastic player with Demarcus Ware being the best of the three.

Nothing against smith or bryant but they are not better players than Romo.

I get why people think that and why nationally he is ignorantly viewed but its the truth.

My concern with Romo has been his injury history otherwise the guy is a great qb who works hard and keeps his nose clean

That is pretty much all you can ask for

No question in my mind that if he stays healthy we will make the playoffs

The guy should be in the top 50 if not top 25 players list given that he is a QB

I think you are reading to much into it. These ratings were done of last year's performance. He only played a few games, so no he wouldn't be anywhere of sniffing of the top 101.

On a regular year where he was healthy absolutely though.

If it is based on last year then yes I am dead wrong.

Maybe I am reading to much into it, Hell I don't know. Lol

Maybe someone who is smarter than both of us can do some educating.

He really hasn't had a bad history for injuries. He has played through some pretty bad ones, but for as long as he has been in the league, I would say his missed game total would be average for a starting QB. That is just perception, I did no research.

He had a great winning percentage last year on what otherwise was a bad team.

He's missed 27 out 154 possible starts. Not sure how that measures up.

Dallas is 78-49 when he has started. Excellent record.

I love reading PFF because they really know what they're talking about.
