PFF's Ranking the NFL Top Ten QB's
-
Only a dumbass would say the number 2 all time passer rating qb isn't great. Give him a good defense and he wins a Super Bowl or 2. Don't listen to me, though. Listen to every analyst on TV that used to play qb. Dilfer, Young, Aikman, Marino, Esiason, Simms - they acknowledge how good Romo is.

Only a dumbass would put that much stock into passer rating. Chad Pennington and Jeff Garcia are also very high on that list. OK, I will give you that Romo is in a class with those two.
You used the term "great".....and that just does not apply to him. He is just "good". And Romo isn't as good as any of the names you just used....except Dilfer.

Um, passer rating and qbr is how you judge qb's. Romo doesn't play defense.
Russell Wilson is a good kid and a good qb, and people like you will say he's a better qb than Romo because he "won" a Super Bowl.
The reality is football is a team game, and Wilson has benefitted from one of the greatest defenses in NFL history. He is nowhere near the qb that Romo is. Romo has suffered through horrible defenses and a non-existent running game for much of his career, but gets all the blame for every 8-8 season, when without him they would be 3-13 those seasons.
Last season, Dallas was 19th in team defense, and still were 1 play away from the nfc championship game. The only playoff teams with worse defenses were Arizona and Cincy.
Believe what you want to believe. You're far from the only person that thinks Romo's not good. When he retires, his numbers will be huge, but he will always be knocked for not winning the big one.

Not giving up, just being realistic. It's hard to win a Super Bowl, odds are against him. And he is getting older, no doubt. I'm pretty sure he already holds most of the cowboy passing records, we'll see what happens.
As I said last year, I'd love to see a Browns-Cowboys Super Bowl.

Btw, I like that commercial, I think it's pretty funny. But I knew he would take a lot of heat for it. He is a really good guy, and I hate all the flak he gets - mostly from Cowboy fans.
Good story about him. They beat the Browns in Cleveland in 2008, but he got levelled and got 13 stitches in his chin. Back in Dallas after the flight home, he pulled over and helped a stranded elderly couple fix their flat tire. The old man told him not to tell them if they won, because he was on his way home to watch the the recorded game.

Tony Romo is a good guy and an excellent quarterback, if have him rated much higher than Gipper.Btw, I like that commercial, I think it's pretty funny. But I knew he would take a lot of heat for it. He is a really good guy, and I hate all the flak he gets - mostly from Cowboy fans.

But I understand why your rivals bag on him, and here's why:
1. Everybody hates the Cowboys.
2. Everybody hates Jerry Jones.
3. You Texas homos have an unhealthy obsession with your QBs
If I was in your division, I would bag on Romo just to see you cry.
All these Johnny creeps that are in here now is weird. We are trying to talk objectively about our QB and we can't do it without you smitten kittens getting overproteective and acting like little cheerleaders. And your over the top defense of Romo in this thread is further proof of the gayass obsessions you nerds have on your QBs.
If I were an Eagle fan I would mock Romo so hard that you'd have to stay home from schpool just to defend him all day.

3. I'm not obsessed, just like jm and hope he does well.
I don't even care what other fans say, I mostly defend Romo to other cowboy fans. Probably a majority of cowboy fans think of Romo the way gipper does. Sad but true.

Not under any circumstance is Romo a "great QB". And he is not that much younger than Brees....only @15 months:
Brees born 1/15/79, Romo 4/21/80. He is older than Vick/BR/Eli/Rivers/Palmer.
Top 5 career passer rating leaders:
1. Rodgers
2. Romo
3. Manning
4. Young
5. Brady
Yeah, I would hate to be in that group. He's also 14th in career 4th quarter comebacks.
He lead the league in qbr last year and was a Dez Bryant "drop" away from playing Seattle in the nfc championship game. He did this with a back so bad he rarely practiced.
His back is much better this year, which is why I put him 3rd.

Romo has a great QBR I'll grant you that. But in passing yards- Palmer, and even Matt Hasselback are ahead in yards. BTW- so is Phil Rivers, and if I'm picking a team- I take Rivers before Tony. Injuries are no excuse if we're talking "best of".
Only a sychophant homer would put Romo up there.
Zombo said it best there's plenty of Cowboy hate outside of Texas. Romo suffers Andy Dalton syndrome- mediocre record in the playoffs. That's why Eli Manning gets praise- with his 82 qbr and 2 Super Bowl wins.

Romo, to me, holds about the same status as Andy Dalton, Matt Stafford, Carson Palmer, Matt Ryan. Good QBs...not Championship QBs.
So, he has a better passer rating than Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Ben Roethlisberger, Drew Brees....and I have to think that he is great because you told me so?

Well, I think performing in the clutch is an aspect of a great QB. Failure to perform in the clutch is an aspect of a not so great QB.
Whatever Eli is....he is a QB who has shown he can perform in the clutch.

And definitely better than Marino. That guy never won it all, he must have sucked in the clutch, right?

No, that is not it necessarily. The simple fact is that Romo isn't as good as you think he is. You only believe it because you are a Cowboy fan.
(Psst.....here's another clue: Johnny ain't as good as you think he is either. I wish he were.)
