I'm glad that it's just your opinion...
That his window for a championship is closed? Im sure many more ppl believe he WON'T win a ring than ppl that believe he WILL. Especially in Dallas with a Swiss cheese defense. Only on a cowboys board. I'm not surprised though, you are one of the more 'pie in the sky' posters here.

Dallas Hasn't won anything with him to this point. Why would you believe he can with no defense and coming off back surgery at his age? This roster didnt magically get filled with talent overnight. It's gonna take years to fix and tony doesn't have that much time.

Take a step back and look at it objectively. His best days are behind him. Dallas doesn't have the talent to compete with or without romo.

21+ or yard attempts:

2007 - 57
2008 - 59
2009 - 38
2011 - 52
2012 - 64
2013 - 47

Not really much off from his average.

The all 22 showed many times tony was reluctant to throw deep to dez when he was open ALL YEAR. It was dink and dunk. This was very evident.

Sometimes you gotta put the stat sheet down and watch the game to pick up on things that don't show up in stats.

All check downs to Witten except of course those to our leading receiver Dez who caught 20 more passes for 382 more yards and 5 more touchdowns. You see a QB who is now easier to sack even though he had less sacks in 2013 than 2012? Facts...learn to use them.

He played behind a better offensive line. Ever think that may be why he had less sacks?

At his age, coming off back surgery, he is not as agile as he once was. Period. Whether you want to admit it or not. Idc how many times he got sacked last year. That's not a true barometer of a qb's mobility. At all.

Like I said. I'm glad that is YOUR opinion, because, although you may think you know what will happen in the future with Romo, you don't know nothing, just like the rest of us. But, coming here and making a proclamation that Romo is done before he IS DONE...is well, lazy!

Yeah, you are not a Romo hater...you just talk out both sides of your mouth.

Don't get upset because you only care for one side. I see both sides of the argument/discussion/stance.. whatever you want to call it. We both want the same thing but see the map from different points of view.

That is simply not true. He may not have had a ton of long bombs, but you really don't have to to win games.


Another one putting wins solely on the QB



Again, had one of his best seasons last year. Where is this decline you speak of?



Why dont you look up his sack totals compared to other QBs and get back to me. Alos, rewatch the Denver game if you think he's lost his mobility.



Like from his defense?



Well, IMO your opinion is wrong.
He was reluctant to throw deep. Go back and check the all 22 film. They pointed it out many times.
32 coming off surgery, he's not as mobile as he was. Do you really think sack totals is a good barometer of a qb's mobility? That's just stupid. Sack total is a stat used to show how well the offensive line performed. There is no stat for mobility. Compared to a Ben roethlisberger, tony is easy to run down and get on the ground from a DL point of view.

If you want to cherry pick the Denver game, please tell me what happened at the end of that game? Let me guess, he got his foot stepped on?

He is good but not elite. And he only has a couple years playing at a high level left. Can they fix the defense fast enough? Doubt it.

Get a different map....I've seen the map you look at from way back when T.O was on the team. lol

Since we're playing the stats game, can you also list completion of 21+ yards per year?

Back in those days, you embraced the hater label. I remember quite clearly my good jousting friend.

You claimed he "didn't throw it 20+yards." I showed that the numbers weren't off much from the rest of his career. So I can only assume that means you believe Romo has been a dink and dunk QB his whole career, right?

Why does it matter? I responded to a post claiming Romo didn't throw it 20+ a game last season, not complete it 20+ a game.

TO Hater. Getting senile?

Yeah, your map is really old. Dog! I was one of T.O. biggest fans when he came to the Cowboy boys. It was when he started his crap is when I did the "hater" stuff while you were still stalking him for an autograph! lol
