How many super-bowls does Tony Romo win with the 2016-2024 Cowboys?

[Aven8]

With McCarthy as his play caller it would have been fun.

 

[Redline360]

Honestly believe if he played for an actual football organization instead of some country club he would at have at least won one if not gone to a couple.

Granted he did have some *** moments in the playoffs but we should have strolled to an easy 2+ score win against the giants if Crayton doesn't give up the route or argurably drop another 60+ TD. We also dropped a ball in the redzone too which would have been huge. Then getting hit with one of the worst calls in post season history on the Dez catch. Granted Rodgers had time left to wall down the field and score against our Swiss cheese defense.

Our best shot was probably 2016 if his body healed up and stayed healthy the entire season. Most dominate OL in football along with run game.

Probably none. We had two of our best teams this Century in 2007 and 2014.

We had a mediocre defense in 2014 and it came back to bite us. In 2007, our receiving corps fell apart in the playoffs, with Terrell Owens having suffered a high-ankle sprain heading into the playoffs and Terry Glenn trying to play after missing the regular season because of an ACL injury. Not sure it would have mattered that much because our slow but powerful offensive line couldn't handle the Giants stunting. Of course, we still had a chance of winning if Crayton doesn't drop one pass and quit running on another.

 

[Redline360]

We wouldn’t have gotten any further with Romo than we have with Dak. The best team we’ve had since our SB wins in the 90s was the 2007 team. That team went one and done with Romo. We won nothing with Romo in 10 seasons and that would have never changed with the teams we‘ve had from 2016 to 2023.

Except if you look past post season records and break down the games its night and day who is better between the two. Not even close on who has played better

But hey you do you and keep posting about those face value stats as a meaningless point.

And that part is on Dez. It's his job there to understand the rules and make sure above all else to secure that catch. I hated the call and still don't think there was enough evidence to reverse the on-field call, but it is just an example of W-Ls unjustly being a QB stat even if the QB isn't to blame for the W or L.

That would put Tony Romo retiring at 44. How many superbowls does he win in that eight year span?

We had some really good teams in those eight years but our bus driver of a qb hasn’t capitalized!!

8.

The Murray fumble changed the entire momentum of that game. Such a pivotal play.

Don't forget GB faced a 3rd and 15 down 13-20 from around midfield. All you have to do is force a 1 legged Rodgers into an incompletion and they very likely punt. But no, he hits Adams deep for a long TD.
And people actually believe the defense was going to stop Rodgers in a do-or-die drive if Dez scores??? Please.

Momentum is definitely a factor in every game. It’s beyond me how some fans dismiss it and go purely by computer generated analytics. That said, momentum can be changed or taken back after losing it. The Cowboys did so after the fumble by taking the lead. Unfortunately, they couldn’t hold it.

The fans that claim the officials’ call on the Dez play are just looking to deflect the fact that the team with Romo at QB wasn’t good enough.

 

[JustChip]

The fumble was a tragedy of Demarco Murray not simply covering up the football well. He had a clear lane and gaping hole. Julius Peppers made a great play for Green Bay by stretching back across Zach Martin into the hole but Murray was highly likely to have secured the football by fundamentally shielding it as he ran through the line. Football 101 for running backs.

Yes, sir. He had 50 yards of clear daylight ahead of him. He was probably salivating over that and, as you point out, failed to do the basic. It’s reminiscent of the Jackie Smith Super Bowl play. Roger admitted when he saw Smith so wide open he took something off the ball. The result was a ball thrown behind Smith. Even the great ones aren’t immune.

 

[DandyDon52]

I will say 3 SB's winning 2 of them.
More playoff wins.
More fun to watch.

 

[SultanOfSix]

The team should’ve been playing in a SB in 2014. I’ll never forgive the mafia con job the refs did. Players make plays to win the game to etch them in history and they took that catch away because they interpreted the rule against not only its spirit to do so, but even when there was no clear evidence to overturn it. I’ll never forget the crowd noise on 4th and 2 and how I felt at the moment the ball was caught, knowing that the team was the closest to a NFC championship game it had been in almost 20 years, only to have it taken away because of Vegas.

 

[mrmojo]

None, Zero, Zilch..........he had his chance, time to move on...

But hey you do you and keep posting about those face value stats as a meaningless point.

If you break down everything Dak has been the better QB. His has 4 division titles compared to 3 for Romo. Dak’s career completion percentage is 67.0% compared to 65.3 for Romo. Dak’s career passer rating is 99.0 compared to 97.1 for Romo. Dak led the league in TD passes last season which is something Romo never did. Dak has more 400 yard games than any QB in Cowboys history. Dak has 28 career rushing TDs compared to only 5 for Romo. Dak was second in the MVP voting last season which is something Romo never did. Dak is closing in on every Cowboys passing record. He’s only slightly behind Romo despite playing fewer seasons. Dak only needs 6 more wins to top Romo’s career win total. You claim if you break down the games Romo is hands down better? Break down the games and prove it!

Romo is 5th on the all time passer rating list behind guys like Rogers, Brady, and Manning, playing against far better competition in the division and league during those HOF (or will be) QBs’ primes.

Romo is the superior QB. Not in any lifetime will any GM take a prime Romo over a prime Prescott. Only JJ the GM could do even worse and he did.

Romo’s career was wasted here.

Dak is 5th and Romo is 12th.

They obviously haven’t updated it in years and you obviously didn’t read my post that you responded to, which compared Dak’s career passer rating with Romo’s.

 

[Jayinem]

How many Super Bowls does Dak or Romo win with the 90's Cowboys that won 3?

 

[Buzzbait]

Zero.
I liked Romo a lot but like Dak he was a good, not great QB. And like they were back in Romo’s day, this front office has never understood that unless your QB is Brady or Mahomes or maybe Burrow, all other QBs need either a great D or a great running game…maybe both to contend for a SB.
Neither Romo nor Dak is capable of strapping an offense or team for that matter on their backs and just carrying it to multiple playoff wins. With the right supporting cast, yes. But this FO during the cap era has never, ever been capable of putting a championship roster together around a good QB.

Besides, even the greats like Mahomes need some support. There is zero chance Mahomes wins the SB last year without that great chiefs defense. In 2020, Brady doesn’t win that SB withoutTampa’s D. Brady threw 3 picks that year in the NFC championship game but the Bucs D bailed him out. And those two are all time greats showing even they needed some help.

I always liked Romo as well, but ultimately I have to agree with your post Bob.......Zero.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Tony and DeMarco didn’t.

But you don't KNOW for a fact Romo and zeke wouldn't have, but I do appreciate your solid line in the sand.

Romo was WAY more of a passing threat than Dak ever been. Zeke was better than Murray in some ways maybe too subtle to say for sure...I've been told that's a lie....but okay. We all have our aspinions.

 

[SultanOfSix]

They obviously haven’t updated it in years and you obviously didn’t read my post which compared Dak’s career passer rating with Romo’s.

Or they use different measures. The date at the bottom is 2021. It's not a significant amount of difference. It's only been two seasons since an update.

You can pick choose your stats. I mean Dak "beat" Romo's total TDs per season by 1 TD for a total of 37 TD. But he had two extra games (one more in the season and one more because Romo was injured in one of them when he had 36 TDs in the 2006 season), and Dak threw 4 or 5 TDs against a second team Philly in the last game of the season with nothing to play for just to break the record.

Or Romo has more 4000+ yard passing seasons.

Or Romo has the highest QB rating in the 4th quarter of any QB who ever played the game.
