I have never seen such hatred for such a good guy who did his best
clove and the rest of the haters are just plane psychotic about Tony.
Let's keep it in perspective. It's the 5%ers . Don't give them more credit where there isn't any. Just remember the 5%ers have been exposed and embarrassed time and time again because in their world, QB's alone win Super Bowls.
They blame a guy who took 4-12 teams and made them 8-8 and covered for an entire organization and their screwups his entire career and who made players and coaches around him millions (see Laurent Robinson and every coach who was retained by the Cowboys during his career).
Scott Pioli, former GM of the Patriots told a great story on Colin Cowherd a few years ago. If somebody recognized him in public and started talking football he would give them the Romo test. He would ask them what they thought of Romo, if they went on about INT's or being a choker he would politely excuse himself and walk away. If they appreciated his talent he would talk football with them - he simply wanted to know if they were knowledgeable football fans.
Romo has a better INT percentage than Aikman, Staubach, Elway and Marino and Favre.
He has the 4th best All Time QB rating.
He has the 2nd best all time 4th quarter QB rating in NFL history.
And these don't touch the things that Percy would post on here crushing people's narratives on Tony.
But more than anything - he was on national television every single week and played in the highest profile position in sports - QB of the Dallas Cowboys. In fact, those games he played in were so highly watched you can practically name the INT that people remember, Jet's on Monday night, Steelers on a bitter cold Fox afternoon game, Washington last game of the year, the Peyton Manning shootout, the 5 INT's against Buffalo on Monday night...yet how many brutal game ending picks did Stafford and Ryan and Eli and Favre, etc throw during all those years in nondescript games that nobody saw. Hell I remember playing the Steelers at Cowboys stadium and Ben threw a pick to Brandon Carr on the final series on a game winning drive.
The Dallas Cowboys were never as good as Tony Romo during his career.
