What a crock. Tony Romo takes over a team in disary and leads them into the playoffs.

L.T. could be replaced by any number of backs....Larry Johnson, Tiki Barber, Frank Gore, Clinton Portis and more with the same results. RB's are easily replaced when compared to QB's.

QB is the most important position. If not Romo then Brees should be the MVP.

Last time I checked the Cowboys backed into the playoffs by getting a lot of help. Hard to argue that Tony Romo led them anywhere. Oh, and LT throws a better ball than Romo.

Joe,

You FOOL! Dallas did not back into the Playoffs, they locked up their slot in week 14 and actually had a chance to win the division going into week 16.

The true worth of Romo will not be known until the end of the Playoffs.

In his first start he baffled all the "experts" pick for the NFC championship the Carolina Panthers (in their own stadium) and ran them into the ground after the Panther bolted to a 14-0 lead.

Perhaps my Dallas bias is showing...but Romo has revived a team that was dead.

As a Cowboy fan I have to go on record as saying I wanted the Boyz to keep Keyshawn rather than sign T.O. But we all must see that T.O. led ALL NFL receivers in TDs. He only "came on" after Romo took over.

Imagine if T.O. was 100% healthy. He would not have all these drops.

I bet Joe Gibbs wishes he had signed T.O. after seeing the patheic return on Brandon Loyyd and Randle El.

LT is the MVP...but he backed into it by default of the fact that he is Marty's "chosen one". A whole bunch of RBs could do the same. Romo saved a dead team.

Joe,

It is possible that I am the FOOL. However, I keep in mind that the Playoff loss to Seattle was only Romo's 11th start. Not a bad season.

Well "Fan 4 Life", we all know the true value of Romo. He can't complain about TO dropping passes for a while.

Fan 4 Life -- Get a grip. Rookie QB that had some early success and later let downs-- and whose own coach has basically called overrated -- compared to LT carrying a team to 14-2 this year WITH A ROOKIE QB. Technically the running numbers weren't quite as stellar as they could have been, but most definitely a complete back with a nice balance of running and receiving TD's (and a throwing TD). San Diego is a very good team, but with LT they are a great team. Without him, they are nowhere close to 14-2. A great running back like LT or Barry can carry a team just as much as a Payton or Marino, albeit for a far shorter number of years.

The way I see it, Rookie of the Year goes to Colston. If you rate rookie QB's by their record, Romo is mediocre at best. There was a rookie QB at 14-2. Romo didn't really revive a dead Boyz team, so much as getting rid of a starting QB who was a festering wound.

Here is an interesting fact for everybody out there:

Even the Redskins have won more playoff games in the last 10 years than the Cowboys.
