We have not had a real "choke" around here since the 2011 Detroit game, where pretty much everyone on the entire roster and staff melted down like a snowcone. Keeping in mind that the entire concept of "choking" is something created by the media... if I were to entertain the idea that athletes do "choke", it sure wouldn't be when 99% of the unwashed masses say it is.

Even that was mainly a 3rd quarter thing while playing with broken ribs and a healing punctured lung. Some of this stuff is not legit, but there are some qualifiers. But no doubt, they should not have slinging around the lot with that big lead.

In the end, imo, the frequency is way exaggerated.

The topic was INTs and my response was solely in response to that. It wasn't a comparison of the elite QBs in the league. Not going to get into a debate about being elite and winning SBs.

Yeah, still, it is just incomprihensible to me for Romo to be mentioned in the same sentence as the real greats of NFL football.
Romo is not even a Danny White yet as far as playoffs wins.

So, agin, try to keep Romo apart from any and all great QBs.
And, if you must put Romo in the same sentence as other QBs, try Danny White (perhaps the better of the two), and keep him with the Brad Johnsons, Doug Williams, Mark Ripiens and Jeff Hostellers of years past.
Oh . . . wait. My goof. Those four QBs actually quarterbacked Super Bowl winners.

Well, let me dig up some other names in which Romo can be in good company with, like Danny White and the old Archie Manning..

Thank you for sharing but again it wasn't a comparison of QBs just the subject of INTs.

And, again, I am concerned about the juxtoposition of the names of great QBs who half super bowl rings and playoff wins and the "great" QBs who never won more than 1 playoff game, much less sniffed a Super Bowl.

But I respect yours and all the other fanboys adoration of Romo.

I wouldn't read much into these statements. I bet 99.99 percent of football players this time of year would say the same thing. They are working out hard and expect to be better than ever this year.

That's really too bad for you then, GTB.

Archie was a great QB. He is a real example of a great, talented QB that had absolutely no talent on the roster to help him win games. I wouldn't doubt that he was the best QB in the family. Danny White was much better than he ever gets credit for. Today's pass happy offenses elevates some average QBs to being thought of as great due to inflated stats. It makes me wonder just what kind if numbers that QBs of the past could put up in today's offenses.

Yeah, Romo has had all the talent in the NFL to help him go 8-8....smh

It's OK for Archie....but not Romo.

Parcells shared a Landry policy - give a player three years to develop, then cut him if they don't work. Pretty sure Belichick and others work like that.

No, I'm not suggesting Romo be cut or traded - I'm not going there.

What I am saying is Romo has played 10+ years and as good as he will ever get.

Well it wouold be nice to see the numbers QBs of the past would post today.

so then by this reason if Romo gets a Super Bowl ring and given the fact he owns almost every passing record in Dallas history then he can be mentioned with others? As Solomon Wilcots said the other day, "53 other people get rings as well and the problem in Dallas is not Tony Romo, he is what is right about the Cowboys"

Yes, he will be one of the Greats! And not only can he be mentioned with others, his name will be preceded by the words "The Most Honorable."



As Solomon Wilcots said the other day, "53 other people get rings as well and the problem in Dallas is not Tony Romo, he is what is right about the Cowboys"

And in the Wisdom of Solomon, if he can find "what is right" with Romo, then he half not watched many games by Romo. In the last 2 minutes of play. In crucial, must-win-or-go-home games. Or that hmmm in Seattle which we will not discuss now being to my psyche. I half tried to put that awful play behind me.

Why bother, bro? It's Romo's job and his only to help those other 52 teammates get a ring.

From watching Romo when he first became a starter, I have never seen one of his teammates make a mistake. I have seen Romo make mistake after mistake after mistake...loser!

If only the Cowboys would have Romo cloned and make 52 more players like him...then we all could blame Romo!

All winning Superbowl QB's did it all by there self.

Ring...ring...ring....

HELLO!

Parcells would have changed Romo's game and if he couldn't would be drafting a replacement.

Romo has had moments as has every QB Peyton Manning has done so as well, Dallas not winning a SB or making it to a SB only highlights it but Romo does not do that any more than any other QB out there. He takes the blame for every loss but those who seem to not understand the team concept of the ultimate team sports.

I'm very much sober, you may want to take your own advice for a change.

Your respose seem sober. OK, go for it. But this time stick to the facks, Jack. Don't try no run-arounds. Don't come at me with your fancy words and délicieux bavardage déguiséense moquant des mots.
And above all, show that you means it and not just trying to stalk me and mock me.
I fervently look for your response, mon ami.
