And I've rejected your stats with the fact that the games are called more in favor of the passing game now than they were when Aikman played.All I can do is point to the stats. Accept them or reject them. As the old saying goes, numbers don't lie.
Apparently. But I don't think it's even particularly close.Wait, is this turning into a Romo is more or even as accurate as Aikman argument?
Me either, even the Romosexuals at the zone admit Romo isn't as accurate as AikmanApparently. But I don't think it's even particularly close.
It is not.Apparently. But I don't think it's even particularly close.
That's why I think it's not close is because of how inconsistent Romo has been through his career. Aikman was spot on almost every game. At least for the majority of his career.It is not.
When Romo's career is over, he won't be remembered for his uncanny accuracy. Not that he is inaccurate, but he has bouts of it at times.
These aren't my stats. They are the NFL.That's why I think it's not close is because of how inconsistent Romo has been through his career. Aikman was spot on almost every game. At least for the majority of his career.
And?These aren't my stats. They are the NFL.
As I said accept them or reject them but they support Romo.And?
I have chosen my path. And, I don't agree.As I said accept them or reject them but they support Romo.
That shift in PI calling happens every few years and has ever since the 80s as far as I can recall. I remember 1994 when Blake of the Bengals made a season of chucking it deep and getting calls because the refs were instructed to call PI harshly. It happened again the year after the Pats abused the Rams WRs in the Superbowl.In the last 10 years there has been a massive shift in PI calls and rules. Especially the mysterious hitting a defenseless receiver. I don't think you can compare passing percentages of the two QBs accurately. All I know is I watched both play every game of their career and Aikman was more accurate, especially with the short to intermediate routes.
Super Bowls have nothing to do with individual player comparisons. That's a team trophy. There have been mediocre QBs win the ring and excellent one who never had the right team around them.Let's see Romo win a Super Bowl MVP and then we'll talk.
I think your initial point is greatly exaggerated. He hit players in stride all the time, particularly with all the slants we ran in his heyday.I don't know if Aikman did it on purpose to prevent INTs but he would throw it low and behind the WR a lot and I think I saw him hit a guy in stride about 3 times during his career. Normally, he put the WR in a position to prevent any YAC. Romo gets it to the WR in a position for them to make plays (sometimes at the cost of an INT when the WR volleys the damned ball to the defense).
Romo is the better pure passer? If anything, I think that would apply to Aikman.Aikman was a total baller and tough as nails. Tony Romo is a better pure passer.
Romo has a lot to prove in the postseason should we get there.
It's a simple premise. Who is the more accurate passer not who has won the most SB rings. The stats favor Romo.This is dumb.
And if I think it is dumb.....
3 time Super Bowl winning QB vs career choke artist in big games?
Are we really having this debate?
The completion stats do, there is no accuracy stat. In the words of Darren Woodson "He [Aikman] is probably the most accurate quarterback I've ever seen throw the ball. I throw Troy and Dan Marino in the same class as far as accuracy with the football."It's a simple premise. Who is the more accurate passer not who has won the most SB rings. The stats favor Romo.
