Really? Only time I saw him rated fairly high was after those super bowl wins, but then he quickly shot down the list.

He won a Super Bowl. Was anointed one of those members of the promising generation. Then he died down a bit. Then picked back up again in 4 years. That's far better highs than Romo ever accomplished.

After the initial Romo mania period wore off after 2007 calendar year ended, Romo was known as a choker, mr one and done with more elite teams than Dak, and kept losing the division to McNabb, RG3, and yeh blown by Eli many times.

Dak at least doesn't get embarrassed by Hurts or Wentz.

Some of these people freaking kill me.

Who gives a crap about regular season stats. Fantasy football geeks love those stats.

Aikman had a cannon for an arm, accurate as much as anyone to ever play, and didn’t get rattled in the face of adversity.

And we have all these whiners on here saying how the quarterback lacks receivers at different points of his career, when at one time all Aikman had was Irvin and he still was able to get it done.

Lmao no. 2 Super Bowls > 2 playoff wins

Romo is nowhere close to Eli. Only Cowboys fans think he is.

The difference between Romo and Eli was that Eli was on a better run organization. I don't think Eli would've won those superbowls if he was the QB here.

Aikman also had to start off with the worst team in the league. It was one of the most brutal first seasons a QB has ever dealt with.

Meanwhile Dak was handed a 13-3 one seed team his rookie year.

One guy helped build a dynasty from nothing. The other can't even drive the bus to a Conference Title game.

There's tons of evidence that proves he wasn;t this big choker you claim. But it wouldn't matter if I showed you. In fact I think I actually have before.

It's there if you want to invest...but I am POSITIVE you "aren't gonna waste your time".

So Dak is a choker and Romo isn't?

I think Romo had 2 better teams than Dak has ever had. 2007 and 2014. 1 playoff win from those 2 teams that according to people here could've and maybe should've gone to the Super Bowl even if losing to the Patriots both times.

I wasn;t trying to argue that...but since you asked.

They both have their moments and that's what makes them quite similar. The TIMING of flubs are what get to people especially Romo...late in the game. The thing is...we wouldn't have even stood a chance if not for Romo bringing us back...often. People remember the last of the plays more than any before them.

Dak has thrown mind-numbing interceptions. Yes every QB throws 'em But for example...I have never seen a qb follow a should-have-been interception with the exact same play intercepted. Weird.

Eli had a consistent running game and a defense that played great in the playoffs. He also made some huge plays in critical moments. He definitely wouldn’t have won those Super Bowls with the Cowboys. QB wasn’t our problem then and it isn’t now.

Arguable imo. He always come thru in the regular season.

Pittsburgh is one of the best defenses in the league, particularly in the red zone. Cousins (500 yards last week) and Herbert couldn't move the ball on them.

And he had 2/3 of a team, including injuries to Cooks, and while the defense played well...it's a challenge to win a game without Parsons and Lawrence. I bet no general football fan predicted us to win without our top 2 defensive players. I'm seeing QBs this year lose a lot when they had injuries...like Stafford, Purdy, etc.

I'd imagine he'd be Top 6 in Mahomes Mountain this week.

That last drive was awesome.... great throw, put it where he trust Tolbert could catch it, and Tolbert caught it.
