Efficiency is not the same as monster numbers. Dak is 4th in completion percentage (Better than all the big names except Matt Ryan) and 8th in passer rating. He's 7th in yards/attempt (since this board seems to like that metric) and is one of 3 QBs to have not thrown an interception.
I didn't say he put up monster numbers. And once again, Dak isn't putting up monster numbers either. In 2014 Romo was 1st in completion percentage, 1st in passer rating, and 1st in yards/attempt.

But please, do continue to use stats to hype up Romo. Especially the ones that Dak matches up quite well against.
Do you, honestly, think that Dak is a better QB and gives you a better chance of winning than a healthy Romo?

There are people who actually believe this, yes and it's only people who think Romo is a bad quarterback.

I'm jubilated that Dak is doing what he is, but this is Romo's team, whether any of you like it or not.

Well, considering the sample size we have for Romo, and the 2-4 playoff record, ih, yeah, I'd be willing to give Dak the benefit of the doubt and see what he does.

What I fail to understand is people that are looking at the same set of data on Romo and think he can do anything more than what he has done. He's old and banged up.

The problem here is you are working on the fallacy that Romo will ever be healthy again. The guy played one freakin drive in the preseason and got hurt! I don't have faith that he will be healthy again

Don't tell me he is going to be the Romo of old.

No, you ride the hot hand. If the Cowboys are winning with Dak, you don't change a thing. If things go south, and Romo is there, you put him back in. But until that point, I don't have faith that the Cowboys can go any further with Romo than they have in the past.

Now, don't misconstrue this as me thinking Dak can. That is not what I'm saying. We don't know what Dak can do, and that is the point.
