Brett Favre has all the stats too, but one that could be the most important....most career int's is often forgotten.
And if Romo and the offense did build a lead, is it all on the defense to sustain it? the offense still needs to maintain drives and score points in the 4th qtr for the team to win.
And again, Romo probably does lead Eli in stats, but what does that mean? If you are that much into individual stats you should draft person with your first round fantasy pick....Eli has 2 rings, both of them due to quite a few great decisions and throws by Eli (in the playoffs and superbowl when it really matters, not in a season opener or meaningless regular season game)
If you cant tell by now I really dont like the cowboys, but i try be objective as far as betting goes, I look at players and matchups, and I just dont see the giants losing here.....it will be a close game but person will make one of his favre like mistakes towards the end of the game and the giants will cover
When it comes to crunch time Tony person is horrible? Ranked number 1 in the fourth quarter in crunch time. So the numbers say you’re wrong. You used biased media opinion and I have numbers and statistics to back it up. The media is responsible for all of this bullshit.
With all those stats, you forgot to mention how playoff wins does he have? How many Superbowls does Dan Marino have? Has Dallas ever been a playoff team in the five years he has been QB? If you say yes, then you’re a fucking dumbass like of the rest of the sheep amateurs. Offensive lines and defense wins championships and Romo has never had either, but still puts up record breaking NFL numbers.
How many game costing bad decisions has he made? About 3 last season, the media highlights those repeatedly leaving out the defense choking, the kicker choking, Dez running the wrong route, austin losing the ball in the lights while he’s hurt, and the line repeatedly caving in around him, but Eli and brady had 4 bad games last season, one more than Romo did and guess what... no one talks about those.
Ask Brady and Rodgers what it’s like to get a lead and have your offensive line or defense give the game away. It happened to them when it mattered most. Romo can’t make playoff throws without a playoff caliber team around him. Fuck do people even know football anymore.
I’ve seen Brady and Eli throw crucial interceptions under pressure and no one talks about them because the interceptions aren’t talked about in a win after the defense bails them out. Eli and Brady take all the credit and the defense was the reason they really won.
The problem is Romo seems to give Dallas a lead late in the fourth repeatedly. Then the defense gives up a long drive with hardly anytime left. Two things constantly happen. One is Romo gets them in scoring range and the kicker hooks it or the kick is blocked. The second is when it’s crunch time and that’s the time the line decides to cave in around him and gives up a crucial sack. It’s funny how the media leaves that part out.
People expect Romo to never throw INT’s, be ranked number 1 against the blitz, number 2 in QBR in NFL history, number 1 in the 4th quarter, the GM, head coach, offensive coordinator, defensive coordinator, the kicker, the punter, play offensive line, heal injuries, and play defense. On top of that, people believe Romo should put up Oregon duck numbers every week with a pathetic football team that he has had over the years. I’ve never seen a player get attacked like this before.
