Not a very significant difference (far from "no match")... Want to see a significant difference? Care to guess what Romo's willingness to take a few more chances and suffer 0.2 more INT's per game gets him?

101 TD's versus 50 TD's... That's more than DOUBLE the touchdowns...

51 more TD's for 18 more Int's...

about 2 TD's per game average versus about 1 TD per game average

A 95.1 QB rating versus an 82.2 QB rating...

This is an UNDRAFTED free agent versus a 1st round draft pick that the skins moved up to take...

Campbell's numbers don't lie indeed! Only the ones that are telling the story aren't the ones his supporters want to concentrate on.

Don't change the scale dude. You don't need to in order to suggest that Romo is a statistically stronger passer than Campbell. But don't give interceptions as a rate stat and then raw TDs. That's spinning the evidence for no good reason.

Campbell has a career INT% of 2.3 to 3.1 % for Romo, which is a big difference.

Campbell has a career TD% of 3.3 to 5.9 % for Romo, which is also a big difference.

But the net difference in adjustment to yards per attempt for TDs and INTs is all of 0.1 yards for the above difference.

Romo is better only because he throws for more yards more frequently and gets sacked less than Campbell. It has nothing to do with the TD/INT ratio.
