Well... duh.
14 playoff wins, 3 super bowls.
10 playoff wins. 3 super bowls.
4 playoff wins. Played AFC title game with a torn ACL.
And really, when was the last time he brain-farted a game away, a la Romo?
He's a joke as a QB. But even he has more playoff wins than Romo and a conference title game appearance.
He threw a game ending INT. It happens. But like Rivers, he rarely makes those mistakes.
He's adopted. But even he has 4 playoff wins and a Super Bowl MVP.
Every QB that has played the game for more than a few years has "cost" their team a win.
But there is a difference between throwing an INT at the end of the game when trying to take the lead, to fumbling at the three yard line, throwing passes up for grabs, tossing pick sixes like it's nothing, fumbling a hold on a field goal, or otherwise crumbling when it matters most on a regular basis.
In Tony Romo's entire career - going back all the way to high school - he has 1 playoff win. That was the 2009 Eagles game, by the way.
If people are saying or suggesting he's a horrible QB, they're wrong.
But if you think he's going to be the guy to hoist a Lombardi trophy, or even get us to an NFC title game, then the odds are stacked greatly against you/him.
You know as well as I do... you put him on the road or in a hostile enviroment against a good team, he's going to muck it up. He can't be relied on.
But hey, keep on believing

You know how the team sucked before Romo and now they are usually contenders? Yea, thats a good thing.
Ill start holding playoff wins against him when his team is better than his opponent. Good QB's get their teams in the playoffs, great QB's can carry them. Hes a good QB.
Eli has never won a playoff game outside their 1 run.(In b4 hehasaringomfglolromosux)
Roethlisberger has sucked in 2 of 3 suberbowls and has 2 rings so whattya gonna do?
Its not all or nothing. You can have a good QB and try and make some runs before you bail on him and get stuck with a Matt Ryan.

says the guy who doesnt watch the Chargers and Texans religiously like he does the Cowboys.
Again... I'm not saying Romo isn't a good QB.
In fact, he has flashes of brilliance from time to time.
Of course, other times... he completely flops and blows games.
What I am saying is... WHILE HE IS GOOD IN THE REGULAR SEASON, HE HAS NOT DISPLAYED THAT HE HAS WHAT IT TAKES TO CARRY THIS TEAM TO A CHAMPIONSHIP. WITH THAT IN MIND, I HAVE A STRONG INTEREST IN WORKING TO FIND HIS REPLACEMENT.
Also...
See 2006. Cowboys @ Seahawks.
See 2007. Giants @ Cowboys.

And neither do you.
Quick! When someone mentions bobbled snap or pick 6, what QB comes to your mind? I guarantee it isn't Schaub or Rivers.

Rivers isnt a leader his team always collapses.
Schaub hasnt made the playoffs.
See how easy?
Quick, when you say intense scrutiny and one-sided criticism who comes to mind? Is it the guy who only plays in big games when its revealed he lost after the fact?

Did you think this would mean something?

I think we need to have mb4 as a controlling entity in the romo fan club too.

Hey, I would have taken Andrew Luck last year had Garrett not taken over and we got #1. But Im not ready to bail on a top 10 QB because when he fucks up the country is guffawing and Im too much of a pussy to defend him 1 out of every 10 Mondays

I'm with Midswat. Romo's a good QB, but he's just not championship material.
Too many mental errors.
