It like the Irish always say of the the Brits: "the English are our enemies, but their OUR enemies."Must be one of those times where we can rip Romo a new ass, but nobody else can.

I agree 100%.If Romo had a Super Bowl win he's a surefire HOFer.
Everyone (including me) agrees Steve Young is a total badass HOFer. The truth is he had great stats but until he was part of the best team in the league, he was an also-ran to Aikman. Despite the fact that Young is light years better than Aikman. Hell, if you take the 1994 playoff game we lost, Young's numbers weren't that great. Aikman outplayed him for much of the game but the mistakes doomed the Cowboys. Does Young get an asterisk? No.
If Romo wins the big one, people will STFU. Hell, Eli Manning has got to be the luckiest MFer to ever win a SB. His SB run was chock full of bad decisions that just didn't bite his team for god knows what reason. But he'll be a SBer. Romo is a better QB than Manning. He is. However, he's never had the support nor the luck that Manning had. So he will dwell in mediocrity unless the team somehow breaks through.
die in a fire! this is a tony romo bash thread, and even a sarcastic complement ruins the mood. ;)He does have that one wildcard win on his resume.
Yeah...I'm not sure that Young is light years better than Aikman on any level.
You are out of your mind. Young was the better QB. Aikman never made many mistakes and was a great leader but he was not the player young was. Young was one of my favorite players ever. At QB he was the toughest guy on the field.Yeah...I'm not sure that Young is light years better than Aikman on any level.
No question.If Romo had a Super Bowl win he's a surefire HOFer.
If its the "light years better" you're disagreeing with then that's true. Aikman and Young were the two best QBs of the 90s and so they were close as far as skill, leadership, intellegence etc., but Young had that extra hard nosed something that Aikman never even sniffed.Yeah...I'm not sure that Young is light years better than Aikman on any level.
If my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle.If Romo had a Super Bowl win he's a surefire HOFer.
Steve Young was a fag.You are out of your mind. Young was the better QB. Aikman never made many mistakes and was a great leader but he was not the player young was. Young was one of my favorite players ever. At QB he was the toughest guy on the field.
If Romo had Emmitt, Irvin, Harper, Troy's OL, and the 90's defenses the team would outscore the opposition by multiple TD's every time. Romo is a better scorer and passer than Aikman, though Troy was physically tougher and stronger.Romo has played poor himself in too many win or go home scenarios. That's on him.
But as to not earning a dollar he's been given? Stupid.

Yeah, I'm sure Aikman says that to console himself as he polishes all the SB rings in his cabinet.If its the "light years better" you're disagreeing with then that's true.

While naming his price each season on Fox's lead broadcast team.Yeah, I'm sure Aikman says that to console himself as he polishes all the SB rings in his cabinet.

And that truth is very simple...Eli, for all the dorkiness , still raised his game to another level in the playoffs and SB's he won. Yeah, he got lucky and had some obscenely ridiculous breaks go his way, but he still played very good games in those SB's.So those three SB's were all due to Aikman and nothing to do with probably the deepest, most talented teams to ever play in this league? Come on man. You're smarter than that.
Im sure Eli Manning is sitting somewhere polishing his 2 rings and telling himself over and over that he's better than Romo and Griffin. People believe what they want to, but there is only one truth.
People say they were both at fault, and that's true, but Jerry moreso. Jimmy was the important one, and Jerry should have realized it and placated him to keep him around.I still don't think the 49ers win if Jerry's ego didn't shove Jimmy out the door.
