In may case, and I AM SURE many of you share the feeling. We have had "nothing" since Aikman. Of course, it will not be an easy task to replace a Hall of Famer and a very very good QB that we had. But unfortunately that is in the past and we need to stop living of memories.
I think we are soooo desperate to find our next franchise QB that we just want to hang the title to the first shiny thing we see (Romo in this case) We are fans of the Dallas Cowboys, one of the most important teams in the NFL's history. So yeah, we need to be up there wit the winners, we belong, but that wont make our players good.
This is NOT the NFL of the Triplet's era. In today's NFL we need much more factors to combine for us to win, and the way I see it we dont have them.
Adding to that, I think we are taking an ordinary, AVERAGE QB, that would be an ideal "BACKUP" and making him what HE IS NOT. ROMO IS NOT AND NEVER WILL BE THE QB OF THE FUTURE!!!!
NEVER EVER!!!!! REALIZE THIS GUYS NEVER.
Eli this or that, critics or not, living in his big brothers shadow or what the hell.. he has a SUPER BOWL ALREADY, and has had a STEADY gaming performance. PERIOD. He lost his "no. 1" WR with plaxico and he is still doing decent.
I don't think Romo has more pressure than Eli. Who is always and always will be, compared to PEYTON, always. and yet Eli is there getting things done.
Big ben, Good, bad, slow TWO SUPER BOWLS PERIOD.
Drew bress.. dont even get me started there.
So yeah.....
I am personally convinced that TONY ROMO is not the QB of the future for the Dallas Cowboys.
