Take a look at this.

So Romo is better than Brady, both Mannings, Favre, Aikman and Young?

---

As UK said, I'm certainly not saying that. I'm just trying to dispell this narrative that Romo is some sort of choke artist and that if the Cowboys had just had a diff QB, the franchise would have been so much better off....

---

i'll say it again, people who use that narrative usually spend Sunday's either watching their own favorite team, or not watching the Cowboys. at least not on a regular basis. it's completely impossible to watch every Cowboys game/Romo Start, AND know football and to still blame him for the Cowboys misfortunes.

---

Nobody is blaming Romo anymore. That narrative died when the team couldn't win a single game with him injured last year. That is.. unless you get your football talk from The View or Good Morning America.

or read any cowboys thread..or hear loud mouth jackwagons at the bar
There's a lot of haters out there with no facts to back it up

Simply untrue. Read more message board, get out more.

He probably means nobody with any credibility is blaming Romo. There are plenty of idiots with opinions.

Romo hasn't done a damn thing and never will, that is a fact and will never change no matter how much you squeal like 13 year old boy getting to 2nd base for the first time.

He kept them flirting with the playoffs every year avoiding the Cowboys a high enough draft pick to draft a real QB!

That's exactly what I mean. I've bumped into plenty of idiots who blame Romo for everything. But idiots don't matter when it comes to football legacy. The fact is all legitimate evaluators think Romo is very good to great.

Pretty sure the point in that is to say he's not the reason for the playoff record.

---

Is he at least somewhat responsible for the lack of appearances???

he shares in the responsibility as much as any QB would whose team misses the playoffs. he's neither free of it completely, or to blame completely . i don't think any reasonable fan here is saying he should be free of blame completely.

Yes, and I think what many of us are saying is that he had to carry the franchise on his back to even get the team in a position to make the playoffs.

Dandy Don said it best...If ifs and buts were candies and nuts we'd all have a merry Christmas..you can spew all the drivel from your lips and pound the keyboard with your sausage fingers all day long but the fact cannot escape you...Romo has not done a damn thing.

Yet he's still a top 10 QB right now when healthy. So what's your point?

Romo is a better QB than Staubach, Aikman, and White.

Having seen all three of those guys in virtually their ENTIRE pro career, I STRONGLY disagree. I like some of the things Tony has brought to the table, but even Danny White had a .500 career playoff record over 10 games. Romo? He had injury issues late in his career like Tony has had, but in White's case, that likely kept him from winning or at least playing in the SB (as QB; he played in 2).

He's done more than you.

I may disagree with you but bringing playoff record into a discussion on the skill of a QB is not one that will win me over.

Yet we both have the same number of appearances in the NFC Championship Game and Super Bowl...zero..zilch...nada.

He's got more playoff wins than you and Dandy Don.
