Romo took a Dallas team that was 3-3, and destined for worse, and turned them around into the team they are. The only differences since Drew Bledsoe have been Zach Thomas, Leonard Davis (but lost Marco Rivera/Larry Allen) and Roy E. Williams. Other than that really that haven't changed a whole lot.
I have a question...

the difference is that flacco took over a 4-12 team and ryan came in to help rescue a franchise from the vick incident. The Ravens and the Falcons were not expected to make the super bowl and Romo was. fair or not, that is the price to pay for being the qb on that dallas team.Comment

on another note, you need to just get over it tommy, people hate the cowboys because everyone always picks them to win. most of their fans are a bunch of loud mouth front runners who every year pipe up about how the season doesnt even matter and the playoffs should just start now with dallas as the one seed. Add to all the jibba jabba the fact that on paper this team looks better than the Montana led 9ers and when they fail, especially so epicially in the final game, they are gonna get shit on. If you can't help but take that personally, well then you will need to get thicker skin. Romo is expected to be great and he isn't, Eli is better than he is right now and so is Ben. Those are facts, not opinions. But look at the support (coaches not players) that both Ben and Eli have. Romo has a spineless head coach and and a coordinator who answers to the players. he is set up to fail. He can have all the ability in the world, but without a mentor he is toast.

To answer the Question, I think Ryan has more pressure to become a bust than Flacco. Reason being, the Ravens has never been known to have a Star QB. yes their QB's have been good but they're not Stars. So the Ravens having Flacco is actually a plus because he brought more to the table than he was expected. But the Ravens D and run will determine their success. Flacco's a manager.
Ryan has been hyped up. He's good I'll give him that but he's on a taller platform so if he fall off he's landing hard. Ryan has a good #1 Receiver and a top 5 Running back. But I think they'll only go so far. Atl defense is nice but I want to see them under playoff pressure.Comment

If Ken Dorsey was the Quarterback I don't think anyone would expect them to make the SuperBowl.
So all this "talent" they have is a double statement when people say Romo sucks. Because if Romo wasn't the Quarterback they wouldn't look like they have so much "talent".
People act like they have superstars everywhere, and should be unstoppable.
Terrell Owens - Top 10 WR.
Jason Witten - Wasn't even considered good until Romo came around.
Roy E. Williams - nonexistent
Roy Williams (SS) - Apparently he sucks.
Henry - Plays injured his whole career. He is inconsitent
The only true Superstars on this team??? Someone name em??
Marion Barber?
Tony Romo?
Jason Witten?
DeMarcus Ware?
Bradie James?
Greg Ellis?
Terrence Newman?
Ken Hamlin?
On paper there are better teams in the league. Like New England, and San Diego. Look at their struggles. (NE Obviously because of Brady). I'm just trying to state some facts.
I'm just saying you guys talk about how overrated they are... then turn around and say how talented they are. I'm trying to be levelheaded, and I'm going to punch the next person at work in the face who says anything. I went through hell yesterday, and I don't even brag. Never. It's like everyone jumped on me, and turned into an Eagles fan.
Edit: And just to let everyone know, because a lot of you like to talk about how good the Dallas O line is. They aren't too great at Pass Blocking. It's definitely a run blocking line.Last edited by Wildcard; 12-29-2008, 04:56 PM.Originally posted by Leftwich 2-14-2009I wasn't comparing myself to Wildcard.

no, they'll say...
"wow, what a great season, they have something to be proud of!"
life is unfair, just like they put all the blame of Indianapolis' playoff losses on Manning, while they put none of the blame of the patriot losses on Brady.Comment

they are overrrated because they cant play as a team. the cowboys have teh most talent inthe nfl, thats a fact. but they cant work together, everyone is out for themselves and there is no one in power that can take the reigns. You're right, if dorsey was the qb no one would expect them to win the super bowl, but he isnrt and if he was the dallas fans would scream for him to be benched for romo. you cant tell me you didnt expect this dallas team to go to the super bowl, all of dallas' fans did. they failed, now the questions will arise. I never said romo sucked, i said he is lost and needs a coach.
The line is a run blocking o-line, i have said that all year. thats what bill parcells built thats why they have barber. it again shows the dumassatude (new word, thank you) of the coaching staff, they dont play to their strenghts.
When your team gets roasted 44-6 by a rival you're gonna hear it for everyone no matter what. You really need to find a way to be comfortable in your own skin bro. they are just words about a game you didn't even play in. disarm them when they come at you by agreeing with them. Face it bro, the cowboys shit the bed and we will have 9 months of trash talk about no matter how much you cry.
just for therecord, the chargers suck, they just played 2 teams in a row that cant buy a clue on D thats all. and if SD had missed the playoffs with all that talent they would have been thrashed too, but they got it.

are you serious. romo consistently has 4 to 5 seconds to throw. thats solid time in the nfl. cowboy fans are used to seeing romo hold the ball forever so when those 4 to 5 seconds isnt there the line is considered bad. stop coming up with ways to protect romo. i know he is your teams qb but wake up. regardless of reason romo doesnt produce when it matters...face it.Comment
