What he said about Romo can be said about all the qbs in the league-when healthy.

No, he saying when healthy, Romo is one of the very best. And if he's out there is zero behind him.

He's not saying all those starters on teams deemed to have better "QB situations" are better than Romo even when they are healthy.

 

[DFWJC]

And he's doing that on the basis of a broken clavicle that can withstand as much pressure at 35 as it could at 22.

He mentioned the back too. And then the main thing is the drop off often Romo if he does go down.

Last 2 years

16-4 with Romo
1-12 without.

Highly doubt any other team would have that type of drop off without their starter.

So he penalizes our entire team QB situation as a result.

I think we're all entitled to our own emotions emanating from such journalism. Romo has had three seasons in a row being hampered by injury. Maybe you're in denial of Romo getting older and more injury prone in the process but thinking he's getting older in years only is pure denial.

It hurts me to see such ratings but truth has a way of asserting itself regardless of how we feel. If a player is unable to play, he can't be rated devoid of that unfortunate characteristic.

Regardless, I'm still with you 100% in wishing and hoping for Romo's recovery to last indefinitely although it doesn't necessarily mean I'm counting on it despite his history. Like most of us, I'll be watching Tony fading back to pass with baited breath from now on.

Injuries are the result of a mechanism of force. Breaking your clavicle using that situation with Romo requires X energy applied with a certain mechanism. You can faithfully reproduce the injury with the right force in the right direction and circumstances. It is NOT a result of brittle bones which is a pathologic condition.

His chances of injury are the same as any other player in the league.

This article is based on a false premise and as a result is garbage in garbage out.

 

[sideon]

No it's not. Every other QB in the league breaks that clavicle on that tackle. It had nothing to do with age or with being brittle. And the season prior-they had him ranked 13th. That's insane. Tannehill? Cutler?? Alex Smith??? That's just stupidity searching for attention.

Yep, reaching for a football while a 250lb linebacker is crashing down on you is not smart.

It's cool. We got Dak Prescott being tutored by Wade Wilson.

Our future's so bright I need a welder's helmet.

This guy has the Cowboys at 23rd. What say you?

I say that this is a made up article based on nothing.

The Cowboys - and every other team's - quarterback situation is who is starting? Tony Romo is better than 23rd.

 

[DandyDon52]

I wonder if vegas has a line on tonys health or how many games he will last ??
if not they should, would be a lot of betting on that.

I was saying that a lot of teams if their qb goes down like Romo did last year would be in trouble. I don't think Green Bay would be any good if Rodgers got injured like Romo was. Romo in my opinion is a top 5 qb in this league despite not winning a SB but I could be a little bias.

It may not have been pathologically broken as you say but it seems entirely possible to me that it was brittle in that one particular spot, since it happened in that same spot several times. Also seems possible he might have been rushed back before the healing process was complete.

He came back too soon, last year, way too soon, the other time was what 2010 and he was out rest of season,
and then went 4 years with no problem with that injury.
I dont think he breaks it again this year, but it would help if they could prevent these guys coming
in free on delayed blitz, that is what gets him hurt, and the cowboy genius coaching staff cant seem
to figure those out, or how to prevent them.

Well no...Romo...has many health issues the Clavicle just being the latest.

Remember this is the QB who can't practice on Wed and is terrible on short rest. There is no bigger Romo fan than me...but the "when healthy" qualifier is fair.

Hey, I agree that they'd all be pretty screwed if their starter went down
Dallas more than any other team though

But just using Rodgers as an example
1) I think Green Bay would do better than 1-11 without him...like Dallas did
2) the probability of him going down long term is a bit lower

Agree

 

[CowboyRoy]

And he had Romo ranked 13th going into last season. I'd say he's a barely-functioning mouth-breather.

Isnt it convenient that when someone says something that isnt in agreement, they insult the writer. How about just giving your opinion on way or the other?

Romo is top10 in my opinion, but our backup QB situation is probably bottom 3. Then factor in the fact that Romo is as fragile as it gets and I would put our situation at about 15-20.

 

[CowboyRoy]

And what about the other 36 year old clavical? Or the other 300 something bones in his body that are 36 years old? Or maybe the 36 year old back that has been surgically repaired several times? Romo is one hit away from burnt toast. And with the way he scrambles around and holds onto the ball it is really just a matter of time and rolling the dice each time.

You guys have actually written two pages arguing about a completely made up "situation" for generating clicks.

How about we take a look at ranking teams' Punter situations. Are we 32nd in the league because we have no backup?

This article and the discussion around it is hot garbage.

Are you really comparing a QB to a punter?
