The best quarterback is the most entertaining quarterback. That’s why the best quarterbacks are Mahomes, Jackson, and Fitzpatrick.

In terms of entertainment factor I don’t think anyone can ever match Jameis’ 30/30 season.

that's one of the reasons Lamar's MVP season was so fun to watch. he weekly made legit NFL talent look like the people who are getting owned in high school highlight tapes. it's insane.

Jerry Jones can waste any level of talent so it's hard to judge what Romo or Dak's true ceiling was/is.

Just wondering what is going on with Rodgers and Watson. Is one retired and the other headed to jail? Last I heard Aaron was trying to replace Alex Trebek and Watson was doing damage control over his massage fetish. Are they in camp?

The Craig Reynolds story
How about this one? Goff said he wasn’t even sure he’d met the dude. Reynolds said he introduced himself to his teammates as he got into the huddle during the game Friday night.

The Lions just signed Reynolds on Thursday, after releasing Quinton Dunbar — Swift’s absence and a couple of other minor injuries limited the backfield depth. The mystery man then turned around and rushed for 49 yards, including a dazzling 24-yard touchdown, in the game Friday night.

It’s still unclear what, if anything, Campbell knew about his new back before those carries. GM Brad Holmes put Reynolds through his tryout this week and told Campbell that the free-agent back was in outstanding game shape; assistant head coach/RBs coach Duce Staley then pushed Campbell to use Reynolds a bit Friday.

And here we are. Such a cool, perfect preseason story. Now, we’ll see if Reynolds sticks through the first round of cuts on Monday.

Saying romo is Flacco/Eli tier is very fair and you are ignoring romos huge flaws if you think he's better

He has a reputation for turning the ball over a lot and in the first three years of his career that was true as he did throw a lot of INTs. Of course after that he dropped his INT% significantly, and the only time it was ever above 3% again were injury shortened years where he only played a couple of games. He ended up finishing with several years under 2%

Eli had a couple of years all throughout his career where he was pushing 5% and threw more than 20 picks 3 different times. He also has twice as many fumbles as Romo, albeit with more games played

code:

All time rankings:
Adjusted Yards/Attempt
Romo 8th 
Eli 63rd
Flacco 85th

Net Yards/Attempt
Romo 3rd all time
Eli 39th
Flacco 91st

Adjusted Net Yards/Attempt
Romo 7
Eli 38th
Flacco 59th

Comp%
Romo 10th
Flacco 39th
Eli 49th

I should apologize to Eli, comparing Flacco to him was too harsh. The only thing Flacco beats either of them in is INT%, as Flacco hasn't thrown as many picks as either Romo or Eli.

You guys are going to hate this but Romo actually compares really well to Peyton Manning for their career on a rating basis. Raw counting stats Manning is way ahead of him because he got to play for longer before breaking down. They have the same career Comp %, TD%, INT%, Romo edges him out in Y/A and Adj. Y/A, and Peyton edges him out in N/YA and Adj. N/YA. Romo has the slight edge in QB Rating.

Obviously Manning also has singular seasons that are better than Romo ever had too. I'm not bringing this up to say Romo was as good as Peyton, because he wasn't, just that you guys are looking at the wrong level of guy to put him in.

At best he doesn't have the durability to match Brees, even if you put him in better circumstances.
Romo is a great example of how all good QBs suck with bad organizations should get the gently caress out ASAP.

Tony Romo was a noodle arm qb with good processing ability who would push the ball too far beyond his ability which caused interceptions he's essentially more aggressive Alex Smith. I like Romo this make believe story that he was failed by coaching and really he was this elite qb needs to end he played in a soft division for most of his career and always had good supporting cast around him but couldn't consistently win the division (in coming oh look at his defense posts like that matters with actual elite qbs) because he simply isn't that guy. He is an Eli he is a Flacco.
