It is kind of cool...and he's directing his frustration towards me because KJJ takes him to school.

Can you prove to me that has HASN'T gained body fat over the years? No, you can't. You have a right to your opinion and I have a right to mine. Deal with it.

Why would I need to prove anything when I'm not the one who claimed he looks to be about 15 lbs heavier and he looks unhealthy?

So tell us when was last time you weighed him? And tell us all how he looks so unhealthy? Doctor.

Bud, I'm not asking you to prove anything. It's called sharing an opinion. Don't have to get so defensive...

Based on how the media has acted in the past my opinion is that if there was a story here they'd be all over it.

Of course there would be. The media would jump at the chance to dump on Romo if he was fat, not in shape, not eating right, blah, blah, blah.

They've made a story out of less

They sure have...but, I would rather listen to the experts that can tell Romo gained at least 15 lbs and is not eating right.

Plus. Romo just got 100 mil so he can get as FAT as he wants, because he is untouchable.

Mark Rypien was a SB MVP, No?

Mark Rypien used to trip over his own feet just like Eli, No?

The year Mark Rypien won the SB - he had a better year as a QB than Eli did either year he won a SB, No? Now, you being the research, objective guru that you are would objectively adjust for the inflated passing yds/#'s of this era in order to make a fair comparison, correct? Now, on the other hand if you didnt have to watch all or most of Rypien's games as I did I might be asking a bit much of you on this one.

Now, I might add, that since I watched a whole lot of Mark Rypien his good year I know what he was. And since I get to see a whole lot of Eli I know what he is. I can make that comparison because I am familiar with both guys. And because I am familiar, I can note the similarities. Maybe you arent able to do that. And if not, then maybe you arent able to make a credible claim about my knowledge and bias credibility. Maybe you just didnt/havent seen enough of both to make a legitimate statement.

Rypien was a SB MVP and so was Doug Williams. Have any comparisons between Eli and Williams you'd like to share? Rypien had a good year in 91 winning a SB but it wasn't a better year than Eli had winning his second SB in 2011. Eli threw for almost 1200 more yards than Rypien and regardless of the era that's a considerable difference. Eli had one more TD pass than Rypien and completed a higher percentage of his passes. In the playoffs and SB Eli tossed 9 TD passes compared to Rypien's 4 TD passes. Eli's passer rating in the playoffs in 2011 was 103.3 compared to 91.2 for Rypien in 91. A lot more was on Eli's shoulders in 2011 than was on Rypien's in 91. In his 7 years in Washington Rypien had only 2 good seasons one in 89 and his best in 91 leading Washington to a championship.

His game immediately dropped off after that SB win in 91 so much so that Washington was forced to use the 3rd overall pick in 94 on Heath Shuler. Rypien was only 31 when Washington dumped him. He never had a season where he completed more than 59.4% of his passes. He's remembered for ONE season not his "career." Eli won a SB and SB MVP award in 07 and solidified it 4 years later by duplicating the same feat. Rypien winning a SB was a fluke he showed no consistency prior to that SB win and was done 2 years after it.

Eli has been one of the better QB's in the league for the past several years. He's building a Hall of Fame resume which is something Rypien didn't come close to doing. For you to compare Eli with Rypien AND Trent Dilfer makes your opinions and perception of players worthless. Dilfer was carried to his SB win by one of the greatest defenses in NFL history. He was so bad that Baltimore dumped him immediately after that SB season but you claim you see Eli in both him and Rypien. :laugh2:

You love Eli, huh?

How embarrassing...

I'm far from defensive but I do find your insinuations without any factual data quite silly.

If he was weighed in and was overweight and there was some physician that checked him out and said he was concerned with Romo's diet, then we certainly can discuss those issues but to drum up things based on few pics is just pointless.

Did you watch Rypien thru the 91 season or just look up stats?

Yea, nevermind how he played.. did you see how he looked?

That's the real debate here..

The only games I missed of Rypien's during the 91 season were the ones that were being played at the same time the Cowboys were playing but I saw all the highlights. Rypien had a very good season in 91 but he had a DAMN GOOD team around him which is why Washington went 14-2 during the regular season. That team could have very easily gone 15-1 had they not rested players in the season finale vs Philly. Eli didn't have nearly as good a team around him as Rypien in 91 during his SB wins in 2007 and 2011. Eli won SB's with a 10-6 team in 07 and a 9-7 team in 2011. That 9-7 team in 2011 was the only 9-7 team to ever win a SB. In 91 Washington ranked 3rd in offense and defense. In 07 Eli attempted 529 passes and in 2011 he attempted 589 passes compared to only 421 pass attempts for Rypien in 91.

Rypien was able to rely on his running game and defense much more so that season than Eli did in either of his SB winning seasons. Several QB's could have won a SB with Rypien's team. Rypien wouldn't have won a SB on the Giants teams Eli was apart of. Joe Gibbs won 3 SB's with 3 average QB's Joe Theismann, Doug Williams and Rypien. It was the "teams" Gibbs built around those QB's that enabled him to win SB's despite not having a great QB. This is why Gibbs receives so much respect as a head coach. Parcells was the same way he won 2 championships despite not having a great QB. The way the NFL is now QB's have to carry teams.
