I doubt many GMs would seriously consider Cousins if you offered them the choice. But I could be wrong.
I mean honestly? I think if a GM had a choice they'd choose better than both guys. But they're careers are eerily similar. But its really crazy the reputation they both have. For instance people on this site claim Romo needed better front office, supporting cast and better coaches. But nobody never says that about Kirk. His teams have been just as flawed as Romo's...and we know he's spent most of his career in Washington and Minnesota. Not the most stable franchise.

Romo has been gone years ago, and this isn't the same league. Why can't you just compare Romo back then to Cousins back then?

What do you mean its not the same league? Romo played in the late 2000's and 2010's......when it was a passing league. The isn't like Aikman's era.

It’s just another attempt to prop up the current loser Qb here sucking up most of the salary cap space

Predictable and transparent……..but still amusing
How so? You Dak haters said Kirk Cousins was better than Dak. This has nothing to do with Dak. I just want y'all to keep the same energy. No one has accurately yet said what's the difference between Kirk and Romo. Nobody can because they have had essentially the samee career and at this point Kirk is on pace to have a better career.

No. Here’s why and you should know this when you did your homework which you obviously did.

Romo improved to the point where he played at an MVP level in 2016 and was robbed of a Divisional playoff win. Cousins has never put himself in that position.

In addition Romo led the league in 4th quarter QBR and comebacks when he retired and elevated his game to the point where his pre snap reads combined with his accuracy and performance under pressure puts him ahead of Cousins, who while very good has never elevated his game to that level.

Another thing that separates them is Romo had more National games than any QB during his career including Brady. Cousins is notorious for not playing well in those games while playing in far less National telecasts. He’s the king of 1:00 on Sunday. Think back to the Sunday night gane where Romo went 80 yards in a minute and beat the Giants. Cousins still struggles in those situations.

In other words Romo improved as he matured, Cousins has remained relatively static in his career and still struggles in big games.

That puts this discussion to bed.

Its still a different era. QB protection, tackling changes, and rule changes. And again since they both were in the league during that time, why can't you compare Romo then to Cousins then?
