NFL - Who is the better quarterback?

[dave]

Answer the poll.

Aaron Rodgers - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Rodgers

Tony Romo - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Romo
Wikipedia didn't list Romo's career stats - http://www.nfl.com/players/careerstats?id=ROM787981

Over the last two years I'd say Rodgers.

Kinda hard to judge Rodgers on the third year.

Both have similar skill sets, both are focal points of good offences, both have yet to excel in the post-season. I'd take Rodgers, but frankly don't think either you or Rayman are in the wrong here.

anyone who doesnt take Rodgers is an idiot

lolwut?

I could see if this was a Rodgers vs Eli argument, but its not.

 

[CaribbeanJoseph]

Rodgers

you are just proving yourself as an ignorant homer by bringing Eli into this without him even being mentioned. and yes i would take Rodgers over Eli because im not a mindless homer and i know he is better. but id also take Eli over Romo.

Eli and Romo are a better argument IMO. Only reason I gave Eli the edge in my 32 QB thread was the Super Bowl.
Romo definitely has the statistical edge over Manning in every category.

:headscratch: Wat?

:headscratch: Wat?

Rodgers has only been a starter for two years.

 

[Fappin Raptor]

Rodgers has only been a starter for two years.

Oh, yes, gotcha. Didn't quite get what you were saying there, ha.

EDIT: That was why I said the last two years.

How does bringing Eli into the thread make me an ignorant homer? I didn't even use Romo's name in my post.

I don't really care if you would prefer Rodgers over Romo but what the hell makes it such an easy decision? Is it the almost identical stats that they put up? Or the number of playoff wins that they both have? Or is it just the fact that you are a Giants fan and can't stand anything to do with the Cowboys?

If you would have just said that in your first post that you hate Romo, we wouldn't even be having this discussion right now. I personally can't wait to see the logic behind the easiness of choosing Rodgers>Romo.

You could at least cast your vote for Romo, Jerry ... errrr Kman.

That's laughable, you can make an arguement for both.

Believe it or not, I actually I agree with this. The margin between the two isn't that great, and Romo brings mobility to the table.
I am not saying for a second this is a landslide, I still think Rodgers is the better QB, but this is not the landslide this poll is gonna end up like.

Voted!

Obviously I will choose Romo because he is already the QB of my team. If you choose Rodgers then good for you but I just don't see how it is such an "easy decision." Besides the fact that if you aren't a Cowboys fan, then you more than likely hate anything to do with them.

 

[Juggernaut]

I'll give the edge to Romo, the things he's gonna do with Austin, Bryant, Williams should be great.

Ahem...

Austin, Bryant(hasn't done shit), Williams(cant do shit) vs. Greg Jennings, Donald Driver, Jermichael Finley. Not sure that gives Romo an edge. In fact, that makes a better argument for Rodgers.

Why would you list Williams anyway? Why not Witten, who is clearly the best and most consistent pass option.

Rodgers has only been a starter for two years.

Yes but there's 2 ways to do this, you could put Romo's whole career against Rodgers 2 years or you could only count the 2 years they've both been starting. Saying "the past 2 years" means that they're not considering what Romo did before Rodgers started.

Fappin Rapter was trying to make it clear which one he was choosing, you couldn't see that though....
