Menudo Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 (edited) Everyone , except you I guess, knows that Roth is avery average QB without the top defense in football. ie : 2009... I really hope you are fishing here and not this clueless. Roethlisberger was FAR from the problem this year. With a well below average offensive line, he put up these numbers: 66.6% completion rate, 4328 yards, 8.6 yard avg, 26 TD, 12 INT 5th in the NFL in QB Rating 5th in the NFL in completion % 7th in the NFL in yardage 2nd in the NFL in yards per completion Tied for 10th in the NFL in TD passes Oh, and he missed a game.

Seahawks21 Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Wait. Somebody tried to compare Romo to Roethlisberger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whomper Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Big Ben does well under pressure. I have always said that. He is a great game manager and is very succesful behind that D and running game. When the D and running game isnt clicking , not so much. Pitt showed this year that Ben hangs from Polamalus titty.

HowboutthemCowboys Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 So, once again, please tell me you were just fishing. If not, lets do a side by side with all of Tony Romo's records and see what we come up with. My post on Ben did'nt mention Romo. I just think that had Ben been drafted by a team that did'nt have an elite defense he'd be an average NFL QB. This has been argued quite a bit over the years.

HBTC. I gave Wade the most credit for this year. Keep in mind he inherited a terrific team from Parcells. Year 2 they were pretty bad and year 3 they had a very promising year . It ended with a thud but I am pleased with the direction. My problem with Wade was discipline. Contstant false starts and drive killing penalties. In the early stages of this season they were playing soft at times. Then they rallied. It started with the Saints game. Wade earned his bones in those games and the back to back wins including a playoff win vs Philly. I have always liked a disciplinarian that is so good he becomes a players coach yet still commands respect. A guy like Jimmy Johnson. I am ok with Wade and with the extension. I really think this team is primed to make a serious run in the next 1-3 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After reading the book "Boys will be Boys" I got for Christmas I look at Johnson in a new light. Alot of the players really hated him and hated playing for him and I think it could be argued that those Dallas teams won in spite of him. If you get a chance, read it.

That is pretty obvious. Our D is rounding out now and I am very confident the future is bright for the Cowboys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised such an elite qb couldn't put the steelers on his back this year and beat the Browns Like I said. I love ben under pressure. When he has a dominant d and running game he is one of the best in the business. He just has to manage the game and make a play here and there.

This is Wade's playoff caliber team and there is no doubt about it. Its Wade's team/defense now, but there is no question he inherited a team better than, say, every coach on that list above? The talent he inherited gave him a lot to work with. Why don't you start a thread about your Eagles and break your team down. Why are you so interested in our Cowboys?

I love ben under pressure. When he has a dominant d and running game he is one of the best in the business. He just has to manage the game and make a play here and there. You are fishing and you know it. His defense, running game, and O-Line didn't play too well in the Super Bowl. He simply put the team on his back and did what the great ones do...........won the big one. So, to add it up: This was Tony Romo's best season thus far Since the Steelers defense was sub-par and the running game wasn't dominant, Roethlisberger couldn't have possibly played well, resulting in one of his worse years. The comparison Romo: 4,483 yards, 26 TD's, 9 INT's, 97.6 Rating in 16 games Roethlisberger: 4,328 yards, 26 TD's, 12 INT's, 100.5 Rating in 15 games Edited January 24, 2010 by Menudo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
