Jay Mariotti calls Romo a Bust

[Trample the Elderly]

Any guy that turns down a hoof like Jessica's has serious issues in my book.

Tony Romo is the starting QB of the Dallas Cowboys, so he's over-hyped. He's hardly a bust. The guy's winning percentage is very good. That's not all due to him, but some of it is. Now he needs to figure out how to win in December and January. Hopefully, he never will.

Yeah, the word "bust" isn't really fitting. Overhyped and overpaid? Sure. But considering where he was drafted, he's far from a bust. I'd say they got pretty darn good returns considering draft position.

Well if we look back 2 years people said the same stuff about Mr Eli and look now. Didn't Romo get a big new contract last year?

Romo HAS been under a lot of scrutiny of late.....Mariotti is my hero of the moment as whatever may cause the boys.........unrest, works for me. Tony D calling him out? What next?

[skinsfaninok]

He wasn't drafted Or if he was it was real late lol how's he a bust?

[killromo]

He's way overrated I will say that. But then again I am biased.

the 25th pick in the first round of the 2005 draft. now, lets talk BUST!

Speaking of "Around The Horn" Kevin Blackistone has some sense at least. He said he is not drinking the Kool-Aid like everyone else. He says that the one team that the Redskins has scored 30 points on in recent history has been the Lions. He said this may be our break out game. The other dude only point is that they scored 40 or so points so far in two games. Yeah the Lions can score but they can stop anyone and our D is solid. We make mistakes by our D is getting better each week. Jason Campbell had one of his career games against the Lions.

*Whether Romo is a bust or not. He still sucks. All Cowboys do..lol

I think he's done extremely well for an undrafted QB. I, like a lot of you, think he's overhyped but I just can't say he's a bust. If we call him a bust it would be like admiting JC is a bust. If I'm not mistaken I think Romo has been better than JC and if Romo is a bust as an undrafted QB than what would JC be as a 1st round pick?

I am going out on a limb. I am also predicting this. May seem a little out there because we aren't rolling yet. But Dallas will end up last in our division. Romo let's his emotions get the best of him. Dallas D isn't playing that well. We also saw that the receivers had a good game in week 1. But teams seem to fear them less since Owens is gone. Witten was their leading receiver last game with 5 catches for 33 yards? Romo 13/29 127 1 3. I think that we should hold our heads a little higher because the Giants are that good. Manning is having a very good year so far. Saying that we gave them 7 points on a fumble return. We must have a little more faith in our Skins.

Wherefore art thou, Terrell and Parcells and Sparano?

A bust in canton maybe

[Big C]

hes done very well for an undrafted rookie. definitely overrated, no idea why a qb with as little playoff success as he has is in the media spotlight all the time, but hes not a bust. just overrated.
