I miss Romo's elusiveness

Romo was a MONSTER. He had eyes in the back of his head and was the best I’ve ever seen at eluding a pass-rusher who has a clear path to the QB.

Can’t compare Dak to such a rare talent. They’re different players.

I agree. Romo in his prine was ellusive . I’d like to see Dak cut a little weight off, he’s not ellusive at all. He’s too big. Having said that, qbs that depend on elusiveness as part of their game don’t last long.

We forget this guy could get out of of sacks like no other. Daks a big guy and can breal though some tackles. The touchdown vs the Texans/ JJ Watt is still my favourite.

He totally schooled JJ on that play, then throws a TD.....one of the best plays ever.

Romo recognized a special capacity for QBs that he had in abundance - spatial awareness. He could keep track of the position of more moving bodies simultaneously than most people.

Mike White supposedly has a little Rainman in him. Maybe that will come with extra spatial awareness.
