I agree.....
He only started eight games, but he plays for the Cowboys , so I guess that explains it. There are others more deserving in my opinion.

Garcia has better stats over the last 4 games, why not let him in? Point is, Homo has played 9 games out of 14. That's not enough, IMO, to make the Pro Bowl.

Not to mention he's had a couple of bad games recently.

Ok so 9 games ain't enough but 4 are? and man if Garcia would had played 9 games there would be some bad games there they all have.

Really which QB in the NFC with 16 games other than Brees has played better than Romo.

You should turn up your sarcasm detector.

The point is that all players (except LT, apparently) hit hot and cold streaks. As TMC mentioned, you can't just remove part of the season and extrapolate. Homo did not have to play Jacksonville or Philly in the beginning of the season, when the Cowgirls were not playing well as a team. You know his stats would have suffered for those games. Also, he had the benefit of not carrying the entire season on his shoulders when he became a starter.

Who knows what he would have done if he had started from day 1. The only thing that is certain is that we don't know, and that he hasn't proved himself over the course of the entire season. And, to shortcut the argument, there is a big difference between missing a game or two due to injury as opposed to not playing until the middle of the season as QB.

I don't agree you can only be judged by the games you play and how much value you have and if those games made a difference and put you aboved that group.

Ben Roethlisberger in 2004 went to the PB but only started 13 games but he lead his team to the championship he didn't had the best stats but his team didn't lose a game on his command.

Favre has had a lot of bad games this year, Vick also and heck Romo beat Vick, you can say all about Vick's record setting rushing yards for a QB but guess what the real function of a QB isn't running is passing and winning games and he hasn't had agood year i nany of those areas Hasselbeck has been injure and hasn't had a good year.

The only Qb if he hadn't been Injured that I believe deservedit way more than Romo is McNabb

If McNabb had stayed healthy it would have been Brees/McNabb, and everybody else. They're the only two QBs in the NFC worth talking about until Romo proves he can handle an entire season.

There were 16 QBs that played better than Homo through the first 5 games.

Seriously, though, if the Cowgirls are going to have a great player on their team, how happy am I that his name rhymes with "Homo"?

I want to see Romo in 16 games, then we'll see if he's Pro Bowl worthy.

It's more of a matter of who else can be put in. Brunell was benched, Eli regressed, McNabb got hurt, Hasselbeck has struggled and been hurt, Grossman played like a probowler half the time, Delhomme and Vick suck...its down to like Romo and Favre for that 3rd spot.

Romo outplayed Favre this season. In fact, I think Romo has contributed more to the Cowboys in 8 games than Favre did to the Packers in the entire season.

Romo gets in by default.
