Give Aikman the rules Romo and other modern quarterbacks enjoy, which hamstrings the defensive back more than ever and we might could possibly know. Bringing up Aikman is just a red herring.

Some might say the defenses Romo puts 30 points up on, are horrific as well. It's not like the NFL the last 12 years since the major passing game rules changes, has been a bastion of defense overall. 300 yard games are the norm from more and more quarterbacks.

Aikman never had a first round pick in any of his lines. Never, not even one.

That's always worked for Romo so why not?

What is it now, 113-113 since 1997? Mediocrity is a long term issue in Dallas and I maintain Romo is part of that.

Me too and I hope it is early in camp so we don't waste too much time with him.

I merely point it out in reply to the posts about how he almost pulled that game out, how great he was in that game, and also to point out what a harbinger that game was of things to come from Romo. The almost hads, the couldas, shouldas, wouldas... The only ifs, and so on. That's his legacy.

Different eras, different schemes, different mores.

Yes, the multi-pick with at least one pick six Romo game started that day.

That's not shitting, that's in direct reply to someone talking about how great he was in that first real action. Turns out, he wasn't all that great.

I just have Romo fatigue and will be very happy when he is in Cleveland, backing up Manziel. Like it or not he is the face of the franchise. The face of failure and mediocrity. The face of 8-8, 8-8, 8-8. The face of the fumbled extra point snap in Seattle. The face of many other game losing...

Coming from you that's a scary thought, since it takes one to know one.:clap

I'm dumb because I want Romo to retire after nine years of futility, failure and mediocrity?

Really paying attention to Romo completions, seldom is it the receiver doesn't have to slow down, stop, or otherwise adjust to the errant pass. No doubt when one of Romo's so-so throws gets completed and the TV talking heads say "whatta pass by Romo" you're not looking to see it's actually...

Yep. Gimme 10 minutes with photoshop and I can give you Santa Claus on the grassy knoll too! :bouncebig

Was just giving props to Romo for this "attaboy Romo" thread.

And that throw was typical Romo passing, just slightly behind the receiver and had it been on target - leading the receiver - Austin probably takes it to the house. Really paying attention to Romo completions, seldom is it the receiver doesn't have to slow down, stop, or otherwise adjust to the...

Which by the way that pick to Dockery was in the exact same spot where Bledsoe had thrown his last pick and what turned out to be his last NFL pass, the one that got him yanked in favor of Romo. Romo did the exact, same, thing Bledsoe did. Except this one was a house call.

Maybe today they have a kicker by that name. THIS Kevin Dockery was a UDFA rookie corner.

Most everyone gave him a Mulligan for that bobbled snap and the NFL even changed the rules because of it. It was the 100 other gaffes which followed, which "turned" people against him. It wasn't just the one thing. Speaking of first real action - his first pass in that game was intercepted...
