Hunkering down with a statistically brilliant QB who's a loser

[GimmeTheBall!]

Mens, fellow travelers, cubicle dwellers, persons of interest and trappists monks:

I come to you with a heavy heart and mental holiday detritous. It's about the man known as Tony Romo.

Tony Romo has a resume that would make Danny White proud. He yawns at 300-plus passing days. He kin do it in his sleep.
He can take NFL teams to 9-7 repeatedly. His golf swing is a work in progress, but be assured he will be an average to almost good golf player on day.
But as to football, we now come to the awful realization, as determined by my furtile brain, that he's a loser in big games. He'll fumble. He'll throw picks. He'll mismanage the clock and take a sack while the Eli Mannings of the world elude them.
Face it: Tony Romo is a loser for us.
His fans will point to the Danny White stats. His detractors will say, yeah, but that don't make the long, Ingmar Bergman-type winters any less lonelier or any more fun.
A columnist the other day wrote some startling words the other day. In a nutshell, Manning and his ilk (including Aikman) all won their Super Bowls while in their mid to late 20s. Romo will be, what, 32, next season?
Time to annoint Romo the Danny White of our time. Only Danny had more personality, as strange as that may seem.
Time to say/admit that Romo will be the interim QB until we find a real QB like Brees, Rogers, Manning, etc.
Time to start roiling the waters of march to raise our voices that we need to draft a smart and tough and leader QB. Then see Romo age out at 35 and we start over.
The Romo era is over as we know it. You know it, I know, Bob Dole knows it.
No more Oh-Nos.
No more false hopes from a statistically brilliant QB who falls against the true giants of December.

Yeah I could not believe how poor Romo did in coverage? the guy can't cover anyone one on one and sucks at tackling.

Oh wait the problem was not the play of the QB. Never mind.

 

[SilverStarCowboy]

How can you explain that it's the Players, only it's not the Players.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

You would think this whole style of posting would get old for a person after a while.

 

[SDCowboy]

Not this crap again...

 

[daynje]

I hear ya. I'm getting really tired of this.

Lissen, Blutto, it was Gimme here who was lamenting our secondary all during preseason and into the season.
To mention the secondary is a given. Any dummy (even you) can see that.

What I am addressing is a QB who has hero status throughout the season and is statistically brilliant yet lets us down ever time.

Let us stick to the issue at hand -- that be Romo, and not swerve onto already plowed land about the O line and the secondary and the lack of a defensive rush aside from Ware.

I hope yourn reading comprhension improves this coming year, Dome.

My suggestion to Gimme would be to please learn more about the game of football before posting that a top 10 QB is the reason why we're failing. Sure, Romo threw up two horrible losses for which he was mostly responsible, but there aren't too many QBs out there that haven't sucked once or twice in a season.

Obviously, logic fails here, so I'll shut my post down.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Not this crap again...

Who does that head feel under the sand?

If you disagree, post something, not just some teenage girl's eeewwwwww response. But that's just you, I know.

 

[Dodger]

Yay...another "it's all Romo's fault" thread from someone who knows nothing about a "team" game.


Yawn...

 

[Wimbo]

I am really tired of people saying Romo will not be considered a great QB until he wins a Super Bowl. That is just ignorance. There have only been 28 QB's in the history of the NFL to win a Superbowl, and some of those guys were not so great (Hostetler, Rypien, Dilfer, Brad Johnson). There have also been a lot og great QB's who never won a Super Bowl (Marino, Fouts, Esiason, Kelly, Moon, etc).

This is a team sport, and Romo does not have a lot of talented teammates to help him out right now. Sure, the skill positions on offense are all good enough to win, but without an OL it ain't going to happen. And, the Defense is terrible beyond about 4-5 guys.

Big games are only played against the best opponents. We are losing a lot of those games because our TEAM is not good enough to compete with the opponent. Pinning that soley on Romo is just silly.

 

[SilverStarCowboy]

Bill Parcells was right.

All a good team needs is a Bus Driver.


.....now how good of a Bus Driver doesn't matter, as long as he gets you there.

Go get me a head coach that doesnt ice his own kicker before we even start to dicuss Romo.


Until then anything said about Romo is moot.

OK 1st off enough with the name calling, I will put an end to this quickly if you continue. Got it?

You think Romo should go that great I think many would disagree.

You're the person with your head firmly in the sand and it's a waste of time to engage in an argument with people who watch this team and still try to blame Romo for the issues.

If you're watching the same games the rest of the fans are watching and your conclusion is that it's Romo's fault then you're very simply football ignorant.

Again, he goes eewwwww!
But at least this time you posted something. Not with too much substance, but something at least. I look for your continued improvement this coming year, fiend.

Same to you.

Maybe a new posting style as well.

What a terrible thread.
