By the way, this video is awesome, gave me chills. I want this to be Romo's year to win it all.

All three different QBs with different skill sets. The team was used to support their strengths and the offense used to do the same. Romo probably wouldn't have been as good as Aikman in that timing offense although maybe so. Staubach's teams went to the CC game at many times. That wasn't all because of him.

Not into really comparing them and drawing conclusions though. All three were/are great QBs. Ask Roger and Troy how they feel about Tony.

I don't see why fans have to prop up current players while also knocking down past players (or vice versa). How about we just appreciate that player for who he is and what he is. He's Tony Romo, and that's not a bad thing.

Huh? I didn't knock down anyone. Aikman and the Dodger are without question some of the best QBs to ever play in the NFL.

speaking as someone WHO WATCHED STAUBACH PLAY, you are full of crap

I also watched Staubach (throughout his entire career) and would place him at about the same level as Romo in terms of playmaking ability.

Romo is a beast and has carried this team from day 1 of becoming a starter and his time is do now, it wouldn't shock me at all if he won it all this year with the help he now has. He has total control of this offense and his game has never been more on point. I would luv to see him win a ring, he certainly deserves it. Lets go Cowboys!

Have see them all and Romo has done more with less. Aikman I would not consider a playmaker, Staubach was the ultimate playmaker. BUT I believe I have seen more houdini acts from Romo over the years. Love them all...Now we just need Romo to get his ring.

This Romo love is immense, rightfully so. But as many plays Romo done I have seen him flop too. At the moment I see him as a Danny White until he bring home a ring. I disagree with the ones that say he did something with nothing. As i recall in 2007 we had 12 pro bowlers. And believe it or not our D then is better than it is now. Our oline was pretty good too. I can say in 2011& 2012 our roster seem a little suspect. But for the most part Romo has supporting cast

Romo is more playmaker than Staubach or Aikman combined.

A quote like that is what brought the responses it did. It was completely unnecessary and if you cant see how some take it as knocking those two down, I don't know what to tell you. Either that or you think Romo is the best thing ever to dawn pads and throw a football, since according to your quotes he more of a playmaker than two of "some of the best QB's ever to play in the NFL" combined.

As others have said, all three were pretty good. Enjoy the fact that we had all of them.

Not into really comparing them and drawing conclusions though. All three were/are great QBs. Ask Roger and Troy how they feel about Tony.

So much this.

He was probably responsible for most of our 8 wins per season the last three seasons too. God know our defense didn't help him one freaking bit.
