Should Romo get a new deal only if Dallas makes the playoffs?

[SportsAnalyzer]

1. A defense doesn't have to praised to be very good.
2. Usually, a good defense alone can't get a team into the playoffs if the offense isn't good enough to do it's share.

Have you ever heard of the 2000 Baltimore Ravens, 2002 Tampa Bay Bucaneers, or 2006 Chicago Bears?

Jmaricus Russell for the Raiders (i think that his name) make tons more money than Romo and he has not even played a game yet!

If he don't lead the Raiders to the playoffs, should they just cut him?

In other words, you question does not make any sense because Romo is not a one man show! There are other players that need to step up in order for the Cowboys to make the playoffs..

Got it?

Well since J. Russell is the Raiders Top draft pick that's a bad example. Expectations for him are higher and he will have until 2010 to lead the Raiders to the playoffs. Maybe 2011

Have you ever heard that, that is what we are trying to tell you about your "
I never take a defense seriously that is not playing football in january."

And I'm trying to tell you that those defenses still found a way to get their team to the postseason regardless of the quarterbacks below

Trent Dilfer
Brad Johnson
Rex Grossman

And that is why just because Romo might not get the Cowboys to the playoffs does not mean that Jerry should not give him a big contract...or even if he does not meet your criteria about those 3 things...

But the Organization has to benefit in some way for Romo to get a new deal because how he plays is one of the main factors in the outcome of a football game. You just don't give a QB a new deal because he has attractive STATS, the team itself has to benefit from Romo's performance. Like when Mcnabb was signed to a 10 year deal, it was because he had led the Eagles to the NFC championship in just 3 yesrs not because he threw a certain number of TD's or a certain amount of passing yards.

But football is a team game. What if Newman stays hurt and we lose ware to injury? Or T.O and flozell go down etc etc etc...

His sucess as far as how the eam does depends on a LOT of other folks being there to thelp him

And I also it will depend on how Romo performed Individually IF the cowboys don't reach the playoffs

Yes.

Funny how you base argument on either Super Bowl winning teams (Ravens & Buccaneers) or Super Bowl participants (Bears). Way to step out on a limb there. With the (now) inclusion of Chicago in your rebuttal, you should've changed your initial statement to, "I never take a defense seriously that is not playing football in january or february."

Have you ever hear of the 2000 Buffalo Bills (#3 in Total Defense), 2002 Carolina Panthers (#2 in Total Defense) and 2006 Miami Dolphins (#4 in Total Defense)? Or do you wish to state those were not postseason worthy defenses?

This whole premise is stupid. If the offense is scoring 28 points a game but the defense is giving up 30 and we go 8-8 and miss the playoffs that would mean that Romo played well and should be evaluated as such.

Its like saying Archie Manning was a bad quarterback because those Saints temas were so bad. Its so stupid its mindnumbing. Its a team game and although the QB has more influence than any other player hes only one of 11 people on the field at any given time.

Well of course if the Offense scores 28 points a game he is new deal material. I'm just saying if the cowboys don't make the playoffs, Jerry Jones would just have to take a closer look at romo's performace to see if he is really what the Cowboys need as a starting QB. That's what you do as a owner if your team finishes 8-8

He is going to have to take a close look at his performance if they go to the super bowl. Like i said this entire premise is stupid and Ill give another example to the other extreme: Rex Grossman. He 'took' his team to the Super Bowl last year. he is one of the worst QBs in the league.

You need to change your name because you have zero idea how to analyze the QB position. You can reduce the scouting process to its constituent parts like leadership, accuracy, arm strength, work ethic, decision making, ball protection, etc. But to look at something that is only going to have a partial correlation to his play like team winning % which is what youre doing makes no sense especially when there are other factors that correlate much much better like QB rating for example.

In 2006, Cowboys averaged 26.6 points per game (4th best in NFL, and only .1 PPG less than two teams tied for 2nd best) and only one team (Colts) averaged more than 28 points per game.

But he didn't play a full season, we have to see how he does as the starter for 16 games

So, if the Cowboys don't make the playoffs, and Romo does not average 28 per game, then what? Let him go in free agency, draft a QB and wait another 4 years until he developes?

Give us your answer on what you would do if Romo does not make the playoffs, or does not average 28 per game.

Now what do you do?

!. Look at how much he improved from last season

2.Look at his number of interceptions

3.Look at how consistent he was whether he had a bad game after every good game



If I get bad results from those things then I would have give him a 1 year deal and then draft a QB

What if Romo says, "Screw that...I'm going to free agency"!

So, now the Cowboys draft a QB and it's another 3 or 4 years until we are where we are right now?

You need to go analyze tennis or something else, my friend!

How many options will Romo have if he doesn't have that good of a year and the Cowboys miss the Playoffs?

He averaged 26 points in his games started
