Video: TLC: You Will Never Look At Tony Romo The Same!

[rags747]

The points before the Giants game are very funny, I've never seen someone bring up a choking, mediocre 3rd WR as a positive.

For the Giants game, it was a meltdown by everybody outside of Romo and Witten in the passing game. TO and Glenn were both ineffective due to injuries, Fasano pulled an Andrews and dropped a TD, and Crayton just choked on multiple huge plays. He dropped a 3rd down conversion with 40 yards of open space in front of him, and blew a game winning touchdown on the second to last play of the game because he stopped on his route for no reason.



The interception only happened after this play on 4th down due to having to take a shot at the end zone with limited time left.

Exactly! Cabo was the story but it had absolutely zero to do with anything. As u said TO had an ankle that wasn’t worth too much either in that game.

If you were trying to be “fair” you would critique both sides. When you don’t seems like you’re taking sides whether you’re trying to or not. If someone is intentionally being obtuse is the a key sign of stupidity imo on a topic. Why would you purposely go silly just to be “right”?

He’s a fair poster he doesn’t post on emotion which is refreshing.

I will stand on that hill that says Romo would have won a superbowl if not made it to a couple if he played for an actual football "organization". To accomplish what he did updraft is astounding on its own.

What bugs me the most is the mouth breathing, click bait media, and fans that buy into the talking heads of him being a choke artist when he was actually one of the premier if not premier quarterback in the 4th quarter and overtime. He just happen to carry crap teams to .500 and his defense bar a year or two was a complete joke. JG should thank him a million times over for keeping his job and dragging those teams to .500

Did he gave his *** mishaps in the post season sure but the majority of the games he actually did his thing.

Could have won it in 2016 if we didn't have an idiot owner

Serious question for the older people on this board…How does Tony Romo compare to Danny White?

Good question. From pure memory, Danny was a good QB, not a great QB. Tony was always a playmaker & once he truly learned to play the position I felt like we had a chance against anyone.

It's also worth noting that the era's were completely different. Not easy to fairly compare.

Different eras I agree. White went to several NFC Championships and to me that puts him ahead of Romo.

Romo was magic........... except in the playoffs. He just never put together a great playoff game and thats the stain on his resume'.

 

[Slim_JD]

Give prime Romo Andy Reid and he has multiple superbowls

Yeah, but they didn't rely on the passing game nearly as much back then. They certainly wouldn't have overturned Dez's catch!!

If I had to choose one to play a game for me, it would be Tony. Guess that's the strongest statement I can make.

I can’t say I disagree really either. Tony was terrific. I just think playoff wins matter. Tony gets to 2 NFC Championship games he is in the HOF. White gets to several (four?) and he isn’t. Also to be fair Tony never played with a RB half as good as Tony Dorsett. Chats like these are why I love this board.

 

[rags747]

Jerry should start by putting Romo in the ROH this year!

 

[Chuck 54]

Did I bring up the HOF? I didn’t.

Sorry, don’t take it personally. It was directed at the overall OP about HOF and “the media false narrative.” No offense intended.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Nope, I still look at him the same - a choker who never had the desire or seriousness to be a champion. He was a waste of time.

So tell us...give us the stats. Prove your words. Not just an opinion...but something real.

This should be pretty easy for you to do. So let's see it.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

I can’t blame them for riding the hot hand. Things were working and the team was playing well.

Hindsight is 2020 of course…

The team was built so well...a cold Romo came in and marched them right down the field. It's a shame we couldn't ride THAT instead.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

All good info but has nothing to do with my point.

If someone is going to make or challenge a statement, use solid facts, not lazy research or even worse, intentional deception.

Boy you really showed HIM with your own..."stats".

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Romo was the 2nd best undrafted FA quarterback to ever play the game. Kurt Warner was best bar none. But as good as Romo was in his role he is not HOF worthy. Many times he locked up in big moments.

But I will say this…Romo played with some lousy Cowboy defenses. He certainly would have taken these last few Cowboys teams further in the playoffs.

Can you please refresh my memory about these "many times he locked up"? Thank you!

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

You could always play the strength of the Divisional Rivals between the two eras game. Dak feasted on the NFC Least.

Looks like he's not gonna have that luxury any more. Maybe the two Giants wins?

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Right….but at the same time Jerry wasn’t the one who fumbled that snap against the Seahawks. Or the Dez non catch. So while I’ll always blame Jerry for how poorly ran we are….we can’t give him sole credit.

What amazing to me...I mean ridiculous..is how often Romo haters us 'the fumbled snap" to prove what a bad Qb he was. From...2006? When he shouldn't even be holding? What starting Qb holss the kick?

So you got that and Dez fumbling a catch...as your "proof". This is absolutely insane.

That's all you got...so Romo pretty good then.

 

[blueblood70]

Romo in the HOF or we riot.

I haven't watched the video yet, but I can tell you this, the argument is he won't be in the Hall of Fame because he doesn't have any big skins on his wall..

Did he play well enough, sure he did and so did Ezekiel Elliott Ezekiel Elliott put up numbers that were better than Terrell Davis, but Terrell Davis had that key year and he won some Super Bowls, he was a catalyst for John Elway to finally win Super Bowls…

it's the same argument for the other #9 who I believe Romo most look like Matthew Stafford Matthew Stafford as a Detroit lion would not even be considered for the Hall of Fame even though his numbers say he was one of the best quarterbacks in that era he was in at the time he was with the Detroit Lions...

But it took him leaving and going to an all in loaded team and now he's got a Super Bowl he's got more playoff wins and now he's in the conversation is possibly getting into the Hall of Fame. so tony romo was Matthew Stafford prior to the rams....

I feel bad for some of these players they are losing out being on teams that just never could get it done as a team...

I mean we all know all the list of players we use like Brad Johnson ,Trent Dilfer, even Nick Foles but especially Eli Manning who is being considered but that's because he let a very average team as a wild card into the playoffs and his team helped him win 2 Super Bowls and now he's being considered and he probably will get in I don't think he should get in first ballot but when you win Super Bowls it elevates your status it gives you some extra skins to help win the argument should he be or should he not be in..

Romo is not a HOFer, good QB but playoff successs and legendary moments in big games do matter, he never came close to that.
