If Romo has that one great season.

I am just curious as to what kind of numbers you think Romo could put up. Let's say we actually have everything go perfect and have a little reality in this as well. I think with Wade back, '09 will be a wasted season that puts King Jerra under pressure to get rid of Wade, and while he will not get a real GM here, he will be put under pressure to get a good coach here for the 2010 season.

So let's say we get that coach who gets the best out of Tony Romo. Make no mistake about it, even you most vial of Romo haters, in 2007, Romo more than proved he can carry this team, but too many things went wrong and it just was not meant to be for 2008. In his first year as a starter, Romo threw for over 4,200 yards and threw 36 TD passes. Very impressive numbers to say the least.

Now let's go ahead to 2010, we have a good coach and Jerra reluctantly takes a back seat and lets the coach work his magic. Romo hits his peak. Romo definitely has a much stronger arm than Drew Brees and can put quite a bit more velocity on his passes. Now if the future coach for 2010 can just get Romo to have great focus in the game, I really believe if we go to a pass oriented offense, Romo is a threat for 4,800 to 5,000 yards and a 45+ TD season.

You know, all you Romo haters can laugh all you want, and yeah, I was hatin it up after the Steeler game on Romo. But, the man has talent, in spite of his off year, keep this in mind about his OFF YEAR, in spite of missing 3 games, he still threw 26 TD passes and for 3445 yards. He still averaged 7.7 yards per attempt and completed over 61% of his passes. With these numbers over 13 games, had he been able to play the full 16 games here is what we would have had.

4240 yards passing, 32 TD passes, and I can darn well guarentee you at least one more win which would have put us in the playoffs. Romo is not perfect, but I still believe in him, because I am telling you all, once he gets past this choking thing, and I truly believe he will, he will win us a few Super Bowls as well as put up some pretty amazing stats.

While with Wade and Jerra back next year, I am not expecting much from the Cowboys for '09, I do think Romo will put up a 4,000+ yard season and at least 30 TD passes if he plays all 16.

If Romo hits the peak of his potential under a real coach, he has all the talent to break the single season yardage record and TD record. Laugh all you want, I don't care, it is just one fans opinion.

The potential is there if he and the O-line are healthy, plus the RB's are healthy. 2007 was not a fluke but we were healthy on offense. We need to stay healthy and work harder in camp.

If Romo went through a 3-game stretch without any turnovers, I'd classify that as "that one, great season".

Yeah, not holding my breath on that one.

I agree, 2007 was no fluke. With the exception of a Ben Roethlisberger or maybe 1 or 2 other QBs, I can guarentee that behind this pathetic excuse for an offensive line that any other QB would have been sacked around twice as much as Romo was. I do not like seeing all the hate on Romo, but right now I am thinking it could be the best thing for him in motivating him to make many eat crow.

If we are to go anywhere next year, it will be all on Romo, because Wade is a joke as is King Jerra. If we go anywhere, it will be Romo carrying this team next year. I would love nothing more than for Romo to have a 5,100 yard season with 52 TD passes and winning NFL MVP and Super Bowl MVP while holding up #6. Can it happen, well he has the talent, he just has to live up to it.

Well, while this post was originally intended to be a stats thread, I will reply to your response. I could easily live without that stretch of 3 games without a turnover if he is holding #6 in his hand and saying "I'm going to Disney Land", now that would be that one great season. Although a 45+ TD season with over 4,800 would add to the sweetness.

Stats. STATS. This is the 2nd thread ive seen in teh last few days concerned about Romo's STATS.

Who the BLEEP(go ahead, give me another infraction for that one) cares about damn stats?????

That's one of the things wrong with this damn team in the first place. Too many players worried about "getting theirs" instead of WINNING.

You want stats? Go play Madden.

The problem is, as long as Wade is coach and King Jerra keeps screwing things up, stats is about all that we can look forward to, because going to the playoffs or winning in the playoff just ain't gonna happen.

Get a real GM here, and a real coach here, we can have the best of everything, great stats and some more Super Bowl wins. Wade is not a WINNER, neither is King Jerra.

If Romo can't go a three game stretch without turnovers then he will never hold up #6. He has the talent to get there, but the turnover problem simply has to stop. He needs to be running the fumble gauntlet 100s of times this off season. He needs clinics on how to properly throw the ball away without tossing up floating, easy interceptions into triple coverage, or drawing grounding flags.

Theres been many games Romo has put the teams on his shoulder, but the lack of respect these players have for each other has made it difficult, he's been injured, but most of all, he's a hard headed gunslinger who needs the right coach..

Stats are buggers when they don't support what you would like to believe, aren't they?

Too bad stats are the only real measurement of production.

And too bad Tony has "got his" on the way to being 27-12, right?

BATDude, if you think your thread won't get hijacked and veer off into some other topic, you don't know how this forum operates.

Besides, who the ef cares about Romo's stats now???

What?

I've got Stats on MY side, pal. The two that matter right now: 1-3 down the stretch, 9-7 and watching the playoffs at home.

27-12 and chokejobs in all three seasons as a starter.

STATS ARE AWESOME
