Would you be saying rings are a team accomplishment if by some miracle Romo was a 2 time Super Bowl MVP? You gotta give credit where credit is due. Eli was red hot during those Super Bowl runs and you can say he is the main reason why the Giants won them.

it had nothing to do with the defense giving up only like 13 ppg through the playoffs did it? nope. was all sheli.

If I were drafting unbiased from the NFC East, I'd draft Tony as my QB over the rest. Not because I don't think the others are talented, I just think he's the better QB. His quick release, ability to scramble out of trouble and accuracy make him a great QB. I couldn't care less about a "running" QB. That's what RB's are for. Hence the name. RG3 had success because of a very well coached scheme and game plan. A game plan that wouldn't work 2 seasons in a row. I'm not saying he can't throw, I'm just saying I haven't seen him be a QB. I've seen him fail at being a "QB" and get benched. Eli would be a close second for me with Tony. Almost enough that he could easily be argued greater than rather than less than. It's subjective between those two. I've got a lot of respect for Eli. Even with his horrible numbers last year. If this team can be "decent" at defense, we can win more than 8 games. Our offense is exploding with talent.

I want you to point out right now what "troll like stuff" I say about Romo?

All I have done here was point out FACTS.. 8 years of FACTS. That's all I do here. 8 years of not getting the job done. Is this "troll like stuff"? I really want you to point out. On the other hand, the stuff you say can be labeled as "troll like". The amount of excuses you make for Romo is "troll like". If Romo, by some God given miracle, wins a Super Bowl - I will shut up. Until then, I have the right to point out facts about Romo.

Those trophies your boys RG & Foles racked up haven't made you shut up. Oh it must be their prolific, historical careers that's got you all giddy.

"Running is what RBs are for. " Endorse.

Outside of the obvious important things in life, there's not many things that would make me happier than seeing Romo get a ring with the Cowboys.

Love the profile pic. I'm on the third season of The Sopranos. I'm uh, a lil behind on television. :D

You would never have any success in the elimination/playoff games then. You know, the games that really matter?

Great way to get in the mood for the start of camp. It goes without saying, but I'm such a fan of this guy. Some great stories, and at the 20 minute mark there's some good details about the process of improving as an NFL QB. That's right. I said "process."

I am huge Romo fan too, it angers me that he has not had a head coach for 3 years yet takes the blame for every loss. If you can't win 10 games when you have a QB twice in 3 years throw 31TDs and only 10 ints when can you?? Hate that so many of his prime years have been wasted.

I think Romo has the ability to string together three or four games with his play as good as anyone who has suited up as a QB in this league.

I'd like to see that when Dallas is poised to get into the play-offs and into the SB instead of the scrubs on the schedule.

He can do it.

So just do it, Tony.

When you don't give equivalent days to opposing QBs because you can field an adequate defense?

right. That's called coaching, which we haven't had for 3 years. That's why they are head coaches and not coordinators.

Lol. Not going to eat from the troll tree.

You resort to name calling? Come on man, you can do better. Like explain why he plays well below his regular season stats in the elimination/playoff games.

Just blaming Romo for this teams failures in those games is trolling. It's not like he has a great D to fall back on like Wilson just had or Eli had. Romo is far from perfect but he's not the main reason we collapse as a team.

Who said I was just blaming Romo or saying he was the main reason we collapse as a team? You realize you are just making that up in your mind right?

Saying that you're trolling (which is an action not a noun) is not name calling. I've no reason to name call and haven't. Your remark was entirely condescending and not built upon some sort of debate you and I were having. You simply responded to me proclaiming to the post my regard for Tony Romo with, "Well good luck with your stupid sucky QB," without actually coming out and saying it. You were baiting an argument or debate in an inappropriate manner. That's one definition of trolling. I really don't want to waste more time explaining The Cowboys failures. Your mind is clearly made up and, if I've learned anything, you can't change someones mind when it comes to Romo. So let's agree to disagree shall we?

When you go 8-8 which games are elimination games?
Without all 8 wins you would have been eliminated before the "games that really matter".

Not to mention there is no such thing as elimination games. Just something biased east coast writers (All 3 other teams are in the east) created to cause more hate to the team who has more Superbowls than the rest of our division. "They haven't been to the Superbowl in XX years!" Yup, and the other 3 teams STILL haven't caught up!
