Those comparing him to Montana at this point were just a little wacky.
Delhomme is not a good reference point for me. He's been taking some hits this year, his "moxie" hasn't come thru this year. Been reading Carolina should even consider cutting him. Romo reminds me more of Bulger than Delhomme personally.wayne_motley;1270724 said:lmao...that didn't sound sincere enough for me, even though I don't know who or what you're talking about...I didn't even realize that there were any fans who'd given up on Romo....I think he'll at least be as good as Delhomme, possibly better.

Me too. He reminds me a lot of Bulger. Bulger has some Moxie but Tony has much much more.WoodysGirl;1270735 said:Romo reminds me more of Bulger than Delhomme personally.

I actually agree with everything you posted. Bulger didn't immediately light up the field when he first took over for Warner as a young QB. I guess I just see the potential of Bulger in Romo. Bulger in the Martz passing attack left him open for a lot of hits and INTs, but he's always been able to move that team.wayne_motley;1270753 said:Wow...that is high praise...I hope Romo proves to be as good as Bulger, but I'm not sure he's proven he can do that on a consistant basis yet. I compare him to Delhomme who is a very good QB when there's a running game and decent protection, but Delhomme is not the type to take the game on his own shoulders and pass the team to victory the way Bulger can...I guess I'm not putting Romo in that area yet either, simply because I haven't seen him able to do it.
I have very high hopes for Romo, but unless he turns out even better than he's shown so far, I think we'd better be looking to surround him with better players on offense...better OL, younger star receiver to grow with, and possibly even a better RB. I don't think our defense is ever going to be good enough to win a title for us due to where we have our money locked up.
I think we should continue to develop our offense and just tweak the defense enough to improve it.
I am a believer in Romo, but I think he clearly has some limitations as most except the true superstar QB's do.
p.s....Last year it was Delhomme who was supposed to have the moxie and Bulger was catching all the flak about being replaced...injuries and a bad year put everyone in that position.

I doubt he'd be cut, cuz they have nobody behind him to step in and be a stop-gap starter. Weinke would be laughed out of the league after the first 4 starts. I think he's having a down year, though and may be asked to refocus in the offseason.iceberg;1270761 said:if they cut him i'd love him here as a backup.
