Lol, this coming from someone that wants Jon Kitna starting. I think we all know how you feel already, Ward. You hate Romo, we get it.

Yeah, maybe Romo used to be overrated, but nowadays, everybody knocks on him.
He's missing TO right now... and even he knows it.
Garrett's not putting him in a good position to succeed, even though Jerry has. All of Jerry's GM moves in the offseason were geared at making this "Romo friendly". Garrett has failed to produce. Ironic as Garrett was the head of the spear when it came to the release of TO.

I don't think Romo will be overrated for that much longer. I'm kinda getting used to this Tony Romo.

I'm not saying Romo is a great quarterback, he has been terrible these past few games, but i'm not so sure how the hell he's overrated. No one thinks he's that good.

I'll give you that, he is starting to get the Reggie Bush treatment. After this year no one will consider Romo an above average QB and you will be right, he won't be overrated.

...and after 4 posts in this thread... Romo went from overrated to underrated. LOL.
One day folks will realize that according to his current criticism, Romo is actually better than what people are saying now.
The most overrated guy right now is in fact Drew Brees. NOR will collapse before they become relevant.

If NO loses it will have nothing to do with Brees.

Exactly. No one is claiming him to be a god, nor have we ever, but everyone takes this hostile stance towards anything Dallas related because of how the media portrays the team. Didn't know there was that many ESPN puppets.
And i don't know about Drew Brees being overrated, but i do think NO is overrated. He's a good QB, but like i've stated before, i don't see them doing much in the playoffs.

It should be Romo. That's disrespectful that they would vote Brett Favre that. Romo is the most overrated player in some time. He's overrated in real life, madden, fantasy football, etc. He's been talked about as progressing because this is only his 2nd or 3rd year of starting but to me, this is the best he gets and it would be better for him and the cowboys if they would stop referring to him as a franchise QB

Care to back up that statement about Drew Brees? You're talking about the same QB who passed for 9 TD's with only 2 INT, who averages 8.0 yards per pass, who in four games has already passed for over 1,000 yards and has a QB rating of 108.4.
This is the same QB who passed for over 5,000 yards with 34 TDs and 17 INTs and that finished with a 96.2 passer rating last year.
People have been saying how irrelevant New Orleans is since the start of the season but the Saints are the team that put up right at 100 yards more than the Jets did and that was done against a top 5 defense. This is also the same team that has beaten two of the teams in the top 10 of the NFL power rankings in the Jets and Eagles.
Right now the Saints are #2 in the league in total offense and #9 in the league in total defense. We are beating teams without our Pro Bowl offensive tackle Jammal Brown who is out for the season and we beat the Jets using our third string left tackle. As of this week they ARE relevant.
The game in week 6 against the Giants will show a lot about how we will do come the playoffs but as of right now the Saints are winning on the strength of both units and not just the potent offense.

Why? What has he ever done? 1 playoff win in 7 years as a starter? Only making the playoffs 2 times? At least Romo made it to the playoffs 2/3 times as a starter.
...and people have him as what? A top 3 QB in the league? With some calling him #1? That my friend is what I call overrated.

You beat a rookie QB and Kevin Kolb. Whoop-dee-doo. I wasn't accusing Brees of being overrated, but this Saints team is ridiculously overrated.

They call him a #1 QB and a top 3 QB do to his production. One player on offense can't win all the games for you, you have to rely on the defense, which is something the Saints did not have the past several seasons. Gregg Williams is changing that which you would know if you have seen them play.

When you compare what each QB has to work with, I think you'll feel different about the situation.

IMO, the whole Dallas team/organization if overrated. Jones, Witten and Barber are raw but thats pretty much it.

Brees is sitting pretty right now... everyone is adoring him for all the things you said. But fact is, none of that matters right now. I want to see him accomplish something significant before I loft him up. Drew Brees is so far behind Brett Favre and the fact that Favre is being called overrated is laughable. That's why I called Brees overrated.
...and don't fool yourself. Even if you beat the Giants in week 6... it means nothing. Romo's Cowboys never lost to the Giants in the regular season until this year. Ya see what I mean?

It's about how they are right now, not what they've accomplished.
