Name calling is a real mature way of responding to a frigging opinion. This is not about me being a Philly fan. I happen to think Dallas is the best team in the NFC East. Now, as far as Romo. Sorry, I make you sick but you know it as well as I do. Every and anyone associated with the NFL thinks Romo is the greatest QB playing. You said it yourself, he has only played two seasons but everyone has built him up so much already. Relax and take off the Dallas Cowboy sunglasses you just might see where I am coming from.

who the hell thinks Romo is the "greatest QB playing"?? Peyton Manning, ELi Manning, TOm BRady, Brett Farve, Big Ben, hell even Cutler and Palmer are all more highly touted then Romo is...most people agree Romo is a talented QB (you have to be a blind moron or hater to not) but EVERYONE says the same thing about him...until he wins a playoff game he is not a top QB.

the thread said who is the most overrated QB of all time, my main point is how can you call a QB overrated or underrated if they have not even completed 2 full years as a starting QB???? the only way you can say that about ROmo is your a hater so quit hating LOL. that is like me saying Brady Quinn is the most overrated QB in the NFL

BTW- Carson Plamer has better talent on offense then Romo does so that BS argument about talent don't mean shat...Bledsoe had the same guys in 06 and couldnt do shat with them...they were 3-3 until Romo took over and went 7-3 with the same team

I will start by saying I agree Romo is very good and it's way to early to call him overrated or underrated. He's the third best QB currently playing after Manning and Brady and no one is even close to those three, BUT to say Palmer has more talent on offense than Romo is absolutely ridiculous. If you put Palmer on Dallas he could be an MVP candidate as well because both him and Romo are in the top 5 in the NFL as far as talent at the QB position goes. Palmer has NO running game and NO OL. Dallas has one of the best in both to go along with two pro bowlers catching passes in Owens and Witten. Nobody has more talented offensive players around him than Tony Romo. You have to be good to take advantage of that and he is, he's an incredible QB, but that statement was idiotic.

Let's go over the talent between Dallas and Cincy:

Offensive Line: Dallas wins
Running Back: Dallas by far wins
WR: Overall 1-5 Cincy might win this by a little bit but Dallas has the better one in Owens.
Tight End: Dallas by far. I honestly couldn't name the tight end for the Bengals.

You were making good arguments until you threw out that the Bengals had more talent.

Namath, Aikman, Bradshaw come to mind.

But Favre is who I'm going with. People sometime refer to him in the top 3 or even top 5. He is not barely in my Top 10.

My Top 10.

1.) John Elway
2.) Dan Marino
3.) Joe Montana
4.) Peyton Manning (He will number 1 by the time is career is over)
5.) Johnny Unitas
6.) Tom Brady (He has done enough to retire now and still hold this spot.)
7.) Roger Staubach
8.) Fran Tarkenton
9.) Brett Favre
10.) Steve Young

Never a fan of Bradshaw, Didn't see enough of Bart Starr or Otto Graham. Warren Moon MEH

Look at Elway's numbers...way over rated. Brady may go down as the best ever....plus no one can say it is because of having so much talent on his team. His recievers have been marginal...he would often have 4 or 5 recievers with 5 or 6 catches. No superstars until Moss came to New England. Steve Young had way better numbers...plus he was a better runner than Elway.
