Jerry Jones said Romo is still their #1 quarterback... I guess that means he's going to start Sunday.

Romo is... correction... was a great quarterback for the Cowboys. However, based on what I've heard, he's thrown a lot of interceptions lately.
Denver Broncos - AFC West
Green Bay Packers - NFC North
New England Patriots - AFC East
Seattle Seahawks - NFC West
Pittsburg Steelers - AFC North
Dallas Cowboys - NFC East
Indianapolis Colts - AFC South
New Orleans Saints - NFC South

Now all those QBs you listed have had a tougher schedule in their careers so naturally their INTs to touchdowns would be higher than Romo's since Romo has had a much softer schedule throughtout his carrer. So if you think about it, Romo's INT to touchdown ratio is too high for a QB that has played a much softer schedule throught his career.


If you're calling for Romo to be benched for throwing INTs, Brees should be benched, MANNING, Big Ben. All those guys throw/threw the same amount of INTs by volume. That's not my opinion, that is what the stats bear out.

Rodgers, Brady and Russell Wilson would be the only guys who should be starting using your logic.

And schedule?

Manning played in the weakest division I've ever seen. He beat up on the weak sisters of the poor and won 10+ games every year. Same with Rodgers and Brady.

Meanwhile, the Giants won 2 Super Bowls during Romos run. The Eagles made the Playoffs how many times under Andy Reid? Even the Skins had a nice run when Gibbs came back.

The same set of standards should be applied to everyone. The arguments you're trying to present against Romo don't have any merit. All I see is a blatant bias or flat out dislike. And that's totally fine. But just own that.

I'm sure we agree on the fact that Romo won't win a Super Bowl. But you can't convince me he isn't a good QB. His numbers prove beyond any doubt that he is.

Classy move. Probably scored some points with his suitors for next year.

Ride the wave. Maybe it will pay off as it did for Drew Bledsoe.

Who was that guy on the podium saying he won't be remembered by his stats?

There definitely are many similarities between the two situations.
