Romo......the savvy veteran, all world QB who can read D and throws a perfect back shoulder fade to Dez.

VS

Dak......the young gun who have more agility now and can pose as a run option threat.


Caveat is ZEKE. Romo never had the luxury of playing with Zeke whom the D must respect which makes all pass actions so much more effective.

As much as I love Romo and I believe he would put up monster numbers in this offense (yes, better than Dak) I think Dak is a better Redzone QB for this team.

Of course we all know Zeke is the engine that make this train run.

But will presence of Zeke make Romo all world? Especially in the redzone which this team in the past has struggled. Back shoulder fades are not exactly high percentage plays.

Until we see Romo play we won't know who's better. I do think Dak's rollout ability would give him the edge though, at least inside the 10.

Romo is brilliant in the red zone.

Zeke makes the red zone more like the end zone. LOL

We've seen Romo with Murray.. who led a dominant rushing attack. He led the league in 2014

Hard to say but there are certain plays that I would feel more comfortable with Dak. QB sneak I would never call it with Romo and over his career Dallas seldom has.

The only solution is to create a Romo-Prescott hybrid. The technology is available overseas and Jerry has the cash. We shall call the creation--Promo.

Fans.... Nobody worried about Murray? Stop it!! Murray was actually more power runner than Zeke. Stop it!!

Agreed. Through 6 games Zeke has 704 yards. In 2014 Murray had over 780 after 6 games. Its like it never happened.

Or see Dak for more than six games. I love him, LOVE him. But these loaded small sample size questions are so worthless.

Who's more effective on a per snap basis Irving or watt?

He used too. Its been a while since he consistently threw a 'perfect' fade.

Dak has been good in the red since the Giants game, we'll see how Romo does.

Not disputing Murray was a good power back but Zeke can bounce outside and take it in with speed or power. That's a hard weapon to stop since D needs to commit.

over the years Romo has not been all that great in the redzone, I remember a lot of settling for FG's
