It's All True About Romo - All of It

[JBS]

The problem with your post is that T-RO stated that some people "believe" that he is, and you replied that he is wrong because Romo is not. These are two VERY different things.

No. My argument is nobody thinks he is. And they don't.

It's a cruel world where tony romo is 2-3 and geno smith is 3-2.

Geno Smith has a defense....

 

[Doomsday101]

Critics hold Romo accountable as an individual, which is funny, because none of them want to hear his individual statistics. They don't want to hear that he owns the fifth-highest passer rating in NFL history at 95.6. Or that analytics haven Pro Football Focus rated him as the 11th-best quarterback in football last season, 10th in 2011 and eighth in 2010.

Rather, Romo is singled out for faltering in big moments, late in games. But what if a fair-minded person understandably points to the fact that Romo has the highest fourth-quarter passer rating of any active quarterback in the NFL?

Critics can say what they will but Romo is more than capable

Really? So you're going to sit there and say for certain that there is no one in the entire world who believes that Romo is an out of this world talent? How, exactly, do you know this?

 

[Zordon]

Geno Smith has a defense....

yep 1st and 2nd rounders all over that dline. wake up jerry.

Precisely what I'm saying

More Talent doesn't mean better. I never said it did.

No, you said out of this world talents don't go undrafted, and my point was only that that isn't necessarily true because not all 1st rnd picks are out of this world talents.

Don't bring up draft status, it doesn't mean anything.

What they do on the playing field does, ask Tom "6th rnd" Brady.

 

[Dodger]

Again, how do you know this? Did you poll everyone in the world?

Draft has plenty to do w talent.

I believe Tony Romo is an out of this world talent. His ability to avoid the rush and extend plays is phenomenal.

I bet you the 11 guys that played against him on Sunday feel the same.

 

[WV Cowboy]

Draft has plenty to do w talent.

Where any player is drafted has no bearing on the amount of success they have as a pro.

1st rounders bomb, and undrafted FA's flourish, ... and everything in between.

I think you know what I mean.

That doesn't make him an out of this world talent.

This is exactly what I'm telling you. We are talking about TALENT not SUCCESS.

It doesn't matter either way. Romo isn't an out or this world talent or end product.

 

[WV Cowboy]

It doesn't matter either way. Romo isn't an out or this world talent or end product.

You stated, ... "So no. He's definitely NOT an out of this world talent. Out of this world talents don't go undrafted", as if where he was drafted had some bearing on his talent or success.

People that draft are wrong on both all of the time.

 

[dragon_mikal]

That doesn't make him an out of this world talent.

This is the NFL...if you're top 10 at your position in the NFL (which Romo is) chances are you're an out of this world talent.

 

[Doomsday101]

That doesn't make him an out of this world talent.

It does not make him bad. Not sure what you mean by out of this world. How many QB are out of this world? Romo is a damn fine QB and very capable he can do things I don't see some of these other QB even capable of doing. No doubt I would put Brady, Brees, Rodgers and Peyton ahead of him but I do think he is a notch right below.

 

[JBS]

You stated, ... "So no. He's definitely NOT an out of this world talent. Out of this world talents don't go undrafted", as if where he was drafted had some bearing on his talent or success.

Correct. Draft has a bearing on ones TALENTS...NOT on their success.

Talent is just that. It doesn't ensure anything. You have to put in work too

 

[T-RO]

Draft has plenty to do w talent.

GDR wants to be the fundamentalist with a dogmatic statement like, "Nobody thinks Romo is an out of this world talent"

I love crushing dogmatic nonsense and the egos that usually drive it....so here we go.

Phil Simms
“I think it was a good signing by the Cowboys,” Simms said, via the Dallas Morning News. I think everybody in the league realizes the talent. I read some things that people said about Tony Romo.

Simms continued: “The Dallas Cowboys were probably a 4-12, 6-10 team last year and he was at least fighting to get them into the playoffs to the last game of the year. Now, we’ve all of a sudden created a new stat for Tony Romo, elimination games. We don’t say it about any other quarterback, but elimination games for Tony Romo because it sounds a lot better. ‘We can get more losses on that column.’

“But the guy is an unbelievable talent. And he had very little help at times in Dallas last year.


Rob Woodfork of TOP,
"a man with Romo's talent should have at least taken a team to the NFC title game by now."

Michael Anello at Bleacher Report
Tony Romo Is a Top 10 Talent at Quarterback

Joe Soriano at NFLSpinZone
"It’s a shame that he isn’t recognized enough for his sure-fire, top ten QB talent, and he is far more accurate than people think. Far more accurate."

I could go on and on. A supremely talented quarterback. Many very smart people think so.

 

[dragon_mikal]

Draft has plenty to do w talent.

A player's spot in the draft has no bearing on how he will perform in the NFL. This is common sense.

 

[RastaRocket]

Correct. Draft has a bearing on ones TALENTS...NOT on their success.

Talent is just that. It doesn't ensure anything. You have to put in work too

I disagree with your argument.

Anyways, the fact that you are even having to debate this right now proves that your first point was wrong. You said nobody nobody believes this, and then on the next page you are arguing for over half the posts on it. It's all true.
