The one game I thought of that I think might show that he lets down in the big games is the 2007 Divisional game.

Dallas dominated the first half with Romo leading two beautiful long TD drive. But Easy Eli, with 47 seconds left in the half, drove 70 yards for the touchdown and tie.

Giant offense did nothing in the 2nd half except score one short field TD. Cowboys had the ball for about 20 minutes and Romo had every chance to lead a winning Brady, Eli, Smith(?) TD drive, but they couldn’t get the ball in the end zone.

noeffinway: “Stafford > Romo”
———————————-

And Brees, Rodgers, Brady, Manning > Stafford.

what’s your point.

====================================

What’s your point? His point was Stafford is better than Romo, as I’m sure your point is they’re better than Stafford, correct? The ONLY one ‘some’ GMs would take over Stafford ‘right now’ would be Rodgers. Manning may never play again, Brady is nearing the end of his career while Brees is no spring chicken himself. I have nothing against any of those four, three should be first ballots while Rodgers has shown no reason to believe that should he remain healthy, he could very well be on his way to Canton. You ask for his point while I sit here curious as to what yours is exactly…unless of course you consider Romo to be in your grouping?

That being said, Romo lacks consistency, going from having a great game to throwing head-scratching INTs at crucial times.

If he were put together a complete season, they might have a chance, but so far, Romo is just good enough to get you beat.

So, what those rooks earn on their contract? $5 million per season over the next 4? Something like that. I think the Boys can comfortably offer Tony $5.5 per. Or even $6 mil!

Happy to take a bet that Romo puts up better numbers than either of them next season.

Ah yes, the all-important Romo individual stats – so much better for the team than say actually winning when it matters most…

He can’t play defense or make the kicks to win games. If we win that 1st Giant game maybe things would have been different. Either way we need to fic the OL and DL…better protect equals more big plays and a healthy Murray behind a solid line will heal alot. DL needs to get pressure period,in the draft we go OL 1st rd and Def every round after,maybe pickup a skill guy if he falls but not till round 5.

You could argue that in at least some of those years Romo was better than Eli Manning, and the stats would back you up (but not any more).

But after five years there are doubts about him that will never go away until he leads them on a deep playoff run, something which unfortunately is not under his complete control.

I think he can do it. But they talk about how hard it can be to play in New York with people calling for Coughlin’s and DC Fewell’s heads a couple of months before they won SB 46. It’s the same being the QB of the Dallas Cowboys. Regular season success won’t satisfy the fans.

I don’t care what anyone says… if you watch the games, it’s ALWAYS on his back. The defense rarely, if EVER shows up, and Romo has to run around in circles trying to make something out of nothing. Get a defense and things will change. Romo CAN take the Cowboys all the way. It’s just that the NFL is… you know… a team sport. One blocked field goal and the Giants would’ve never made the postseason, thanks to Romo leading them down the field. The NFL is a game of inches. He did that ALL YEAR, but his TEAM could never back him up. Great TEAM’s win championships, not just great players. The numbers don’t lie. Tony Romo is statistically the greatest QB to ever play for the Dallas Cowboys. They just need a defense. Dammit Jerry, we’ve had a top 10 offense for 5 years now.. and no defense!!!

Yes, Romo is a tough guy, a baller and definitely and above average QB who puts up great stats in the regular season. Is he good in the clutch, no, but not many are. I would take him and his smug head in heartbeat over any of these rookie QB’s…But not over my boy Eli

Go GIANTS!

As a die hard Viking fan, and a fan of the game. Reading the comments section has become laughable. There are a select few that have real insight RE: the game if football. The majority just rip into anything said about everyone. Romo is a stud QB. I would argue the players around him need coaching and motivation as they sell themselves short yearly. But to say Romo sucks is flat out ignorant.
Luck&griffen should hope to play the game as Romo does!

As a Boys fan, Romo has been one of the few bright spots of this team in that time. It’s clear to me that anyone blaming #9 for them sucking the last few years either doesn’t watch dallas play much,or heard someone say he sucks (Romo bashing seems to be very trendy these days) or just does not know football and realize its a team game.
Romo is the last thing wrong with this team right now. Our problems are J.J, bad o-line, no pass rush, and a joke of a secondry.

Are we somehow suppose to forget Vick took team with NO WEAPONS (name me one, just one. seriously) and a coach who would never wasted his prime years, to a NFC championship, while Romo couldn’t do that with 13 pro bowlers? Eliminated right away in the playoffs.

The Giants running game was dead last this year and had a defense that finished 27th. Without Eli’s play this past year, the Giants would have finished last. He also threw was 9:1 TD:INT in the playoffs so get over it.

Try Payton Manning, Jason Campbell, David Garrard, and a whole lot of others before you shout your mouth off like a moron that’s what cost you Jimmy Johnson, when are you going to learn dude, Jason Garret is a joke as a head coach, and offense coordinator, you ever hear of Bill Cowher, Jeff Fisher who you lost this year, Dennis Green, Brian Billick, Herm Edwards, etc…

The Great news is I am a Packer Fan we have Aaron Rodgers, and we also have a better GM and Owner or shall we say Owners
Deal with that Cowboy Fans If you got any brains in your head stop buying tickets to the game and jerseys and stuff until Jerry Jones gets his head out of his butt.

Did you pull that $5.5-6 million out of thin air? Romo’s salary last season was $9 mil (10.9 mil cap number) – no wonder he’s always smiling. Imagine how much more he could get if he had more than 1 postseason win in his career.
