re: Article making an argument for Romo in the HOF

So are you saying the 5th best out of 32 for a period of 4-5 years deserves to be in the hall? And like it or not, Super Bowls and playoff wins matter. Ben blows him out of the water in that regard

If that is a legit argument couldn't I turn back to you and ask, "So you are saying the 4th best out of 32 deserves to be in the Hall?"
And fwiw, I never really gave a HOF or not take, I just think he has a much more solid case than many give him credit for.

And like it or not, Super Bowls and playoff wins matter.

And he only had 9 seasons of 1000 or more yards and he was the 5th best in 8/9 of those seasons? Not even close man

Ever think your way might be incorrect?
Posted on 4/5/17 at 1:20 pm to Tigerbait337
Eh, he'll get in eventually.

His Not-So HOF statue should look something like this:

quote:Based on what, 1 ring?
Big Ben not even close
Since 2006 over that 8-9 year span, Romo absolutely has an argument as being better than Big Ben.
2006-2014:
Romo
TD% 5.7
INT% 2.6
Y/A 7.9
Big Ben
TD% 4.9
INT% 2.5
Y/A 7.8
NOT EVEN CLOSE!!!!!

FWIW, I'm juding individuals by individual metrics, you're using team metrics. That's why I know I'm right.

HOF?
No way.
No way.

You obviously don't know shite. Ben has more than one ring. Also, way more than 2 playoff wins in his entire career. And romo has had the superior skill players to all these other qbs for his entire career. So yes, like usual, you are wrong

So yes, like usual, you are wrong

Or that he was in another Superbowl. shite Bens been in more superbowl games than Romo has playoff victories

I am talking careers which is what the hall of fame judges you on.
The entire sport of football is a team aspect. Romo is not throwing to himself so yeah team records and stats get into the discussion.
The man had a first ballot hof tight end his entire career and two definitive number one receivers. How many other qbs can say that? No Brees, not Rodgers, not Brady, not Manning and not Big Ben.

No I just find it laughable when people overrate romo. Being the 6-8th best qb in league does not make you a hall of famer.

Or that he was in another Superbowl.
The best 2 QBs always play in the SB, is that the argument? Or does sometimes, lesser QBs play in the SB and better QBs do not?
