Yes Romo will put good numbers, but I feel the Steelers have a better receiving corp, so I give Ben the nod.
I don't really see Rodgers being dethroned anytime soon barring any injuries. Brady and Manning will eventually retire (I think Manning probably will first because it looks like his body is breaking down sooner). Romo and Ben aren't spring chickens either. Those 2 along with Eli and Rivers (2004 class) are near the end of their careers too. I think Ben will probably be the first to retire from the 2004 class because he is willing to electively take hits to keep the play going. It's hard to imagine his body can handle all of the wear and tear a season brings like Brady and Peyton who actively try not to get hit. I do think there is a small window for Ben to make that jump once Brady and Peyton are out of the league but I'm guessing that will be short lived.
My main point is that it's funny to me how quickly Romo gets written off. He's played at a higher level longer than a lot of guys who seem to jump him on rankings of both posters here and journalists on various websites. I don't know if it's a bias against the Cowboys or what but it's strange.
Dalton is a middle of the road starter. Even Tannehill is better than Dalton.
I don't agree with that perspective. There is a lot more that goes on in a game that a QB can influence. Unless you can make a good argument for them being the entire reason for the team losing during each appearance then it's a lazy opinion.
He has done well and he is getting better. I don't know if I'd toss him into the group of superstars yet but I agree he has a lot of potential. He's the best Big 12 QB I've seen come into the league in a very long time.
