Thread: Interesting theory about Romo

A few years ago a radio host was talking about how much more offensive the game was becoming and that teams couldn't afford a qb that threw int's anymore anyways, the gunslinger days are dead b/c of how imporant it is to keep the ball out of the other teams hand, and score.

If you add up all of the fun had by everyone else in the entire league in an entire season it still wouldn't amount to 1/10th of 1/1,000,000,000th of 1/1,000,000,000,000th of a percent of the amount of fun Favre had in just one game.

Nobody and I mean nobody has cried more than him. He retires, then unretires only to retire and then unretire, sends pictures of his dick to someone that looks like his wife, cries some more and then chokes again and retires only to play for the vikings and at the end chokes again while have fun. lol

I almost miss seeing the interception machine at his best.

Of course you do, your d doesn't get any freebie interceptions anymore.

We use to be one of the elite scoring defenses when he played.

Romo is can move, at least more than Orton, and has a good arm. Not getting to the playoffs should not fall completely on him (outside of the botched snap for a kick)

As far as money..... how much is Cutler reported to get his next deal? He took us to the playoffs once in three years.

Orton was a project QB in Chicago who was still developing when he was traded. He put in some really good performances in Denver before McDaniels managed to completely destroy that team and totally undermine Kyle's leadership position by drafting Tebow in the 1st round.

Orton has matured a lot over the course of his career. And I think that's where he is better than Romo - he's more mature and can get a lot more out of what he has. He makes better decisions. Romo has been coddled by Dallas his whole career and as a result, he lacks maturity. He's never been held accountable and so he hasn't grown up at all.

Could KO's maturity be enough to get Dallas farther than they've been with Romo's greater talent? Who knows? But TR seems to get knocked out for long stretches with an injury every 2 years (2008 and 2010). Here we are in 2012 and Orton is standing on the Cowboys sideline, waiting for Romo's regular 2-yr injury to happen. Would Texas explode if KO got them into the playoffs and won a couple of games?!?!
