What is Romo's record against Eli?

[haleyrules]

It's a team sport.


You can have your defense getting scored on at will and guy like Crayton dropping passes and Demarco Murray fumbling away a Touchdown.

Romo will get all of the blame because people forget the Micro stuff and just remember the Propaganda ESPN Romo not clutch garbage.

Nice. Tell Brady and Belichick that.

 

[Trouty]

Tony has been grossly over rated for years. A guesser...that always guessed wrong when it counted! Manning was a drone..,that understood the fundamentals and made the most of his limited abilities AND opportunities. That matters.

Idk, he's never seemed overrated here. Just read the thread. It's been the same since 2004.

 

[Melonfeud]

Tony had good teams. 13-3..12-4...11-5...10-6...He was the weak link...couldn't read a defense...took wild idiotic chances...no, there is no excuse for two wildcard wins in 10 yrs. The club is far, far better off now that his stupidity is gone. When the rookie came in...it was obvious how poor a decision maker Romo really was. Difference between night and day. Gone were all the idiotic mistakes at the LOC...Gone were all the pointless running round with the play still in the QB ' hand...big differense from guessing to knowing what the enemy defenses are really trying to do...the future is finally worth looking forward too.

Sheese,Bro! I'm gonna attempt to summon @Clove to carry the background vocals in this Tune your composing, o.k.?
Dick Clark with his American Bandstand aficionados will prolly Rate it pretty high,,,

Name anyone else outside of them.

They are outliers.


Belichick can win a Superbowl with just about any group of players surrounded by Brady.


Romo... Didn't even have a decent coach.


We did not get this thing on the right track until 2014 and that is over half of Romo's career and we have still tried to bargain shop for our defense and haven't learned that lesson yet.

Depends on who is posting...I have read idiots that have boosted he was the grestest QB in the history of the club...hahaha...Of course, they had never, in fact, watched another Cowboy QB PLAY!!!

 

[Trouty]

Tony Romo has been a Cowboy target of dissent his whole career. People look at the game with a singular view -- Tony didn't carry the team to the SB. Very few QBs can. All-time, all-time greats haven't.

Tony was failed by a crap *** management his whole career.

This whole "overrated" nonsense is grating. I've never seen him overrated. No one claimed him a top-3 QB that I recall.

Dude played ball and gave us a chance with a pathetic supporting cast, and an offensive-centric team. The sort of teams that sizzle out in the playoffs (with the Greatest Show on Turf being the lone exception in the last two decades). Look no further than the hilarious choke job of Atlanta this last year. And hell, Atlanta had a more well-rounded cast than Romo ever had.

Well yeah, but those guys shouldn't be your measure for "overrated Tony." Like you said, they're idiots.

It'd be like taking what floaty says as church.

I originally had him fourth but moved him up to third. It's close between him and Danny. I'd put him about 8 or 9th in the QBs of his era. Not enough to get him in the HOF though.

Well. Romo was most certainly self coached. During his time in Dallas...some fine, fine QB's,have competed and been successful in the NFL...Tony was cetainly not a liability...he just was never a play off performer.

Nah, he's no Hall of Famer, no way. He was solid and perhaps could have been if the playoffs went differently. If he had a team to work with. His last appearence in 14 was pretty damn awesome.

Sad. Refs screwed that call up. Still no guarantee we go to the show, tho. But, remember that D. Yikes.

I'll say this... I never watched Roger play but Romo is a much more skilled QB then Aikman.


Would he have known when to stay out of the way like Aikman and just make the conservative play? I don't know.


But Aikman had the best coaching, OL, Defense, and the greatest Warrior to ever play this sport in Emmitt Smith to hand the ball off too.

Troy was a bad *** but he wasn't the playmaker that Romo was but you could argue that Romo couldn't manage a game like Aikman either.

 

[QT]

Romo didn't have NY's D (Strahan, Tuck, Osi, Peirre Paul, etc).

And when Romo had a decent D with Ware... Patrick Crayton dropped an easy catch, thus letting Eli on the way to that first superbowl.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Nah, he's no Hall of Famer, no way. He was solid and perhaps could have been if the playoffs went differently.

I don't even think he had to win a SB. Just win a couple more playoff games and who knows? He's hurt because he plays in a passing league anymore. QB's who didn't win SBs and are in the HOF put up passing yards but it was in a different era.

Troy was the leader of that team. Don't know if we win anything without him.

Ok... But who on our team has been a playoff performer?

The great Peyton Manning needed help and got it in the playoffs.

Eli too.


We depended way too much on Romo.


A guy like Demarco Murray that we should be able to depend on shouldn't be fumbling the ball when he has a giant hole to run in that could close a game out.

Our defense and OL going up to Minnesota and getting embarrassed.

Patrick Crayton dropping footballs in big situations.

 

[haleyrules]

I originally had him fourth but moved him up to third. It's close between him and Danny. I'd put him about 8 or 9th in the QBs of his era. Not enough to get him in the HOF though.

I would still take the grit and courage of the well schooled White over a complete guesser like Romo. Heck, he wasn't in the same category as a Meredith or Morton to me! Both were far better fundamental guys that played in a much tougher league than Romo.

 

[CATCH17]

Troy was the leader of that team. Don't know if we win anything without him.

True was the man.. I don't have anything bad to say about him.


But, IMO, that team was all about Emmitt. We went as Emmitt went.

Whenever Aikman was hurt we did well but when Emmitt wasn't available we couldn't win.

I don't agree here, 17.

Aikman is a better QB. By a mile. A more apt comparison to Romo would be Favre. When Favre won, he had Reggie White and Co on his D, tho.

Aikman is Cowboy royalty and one of the finest precision passers this game has ever seen. He also had brass balls and was a cool customer in the biggest of moments.

He, too, was failed by Jerry. But after he got his three rings. So Tony and he have that in common. At least Troy had Jimmy for the first part of his career. An elite GM/Coach.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

I don't remember Troy flopping in big games.

OK. Manning and Manning....did, in fact, win Superbowls!! Tony couldn't get past a wildcard game with a 13-3 club.
