    I’m throwing it out there that the Green Bay Packers are the most overrated Franchise in the NFL. And Aaron Rodgers is the most overhyped overrated QB

    1. Len Dawson
    2. Patrick Mahomes
    3. Trent Green
    4. Alex Smith
    5. Joe Montana

    Honorable mention Bill Kenney

    Above is based on playing time with the Chiefs, not 49'ers or of course Montana would be higher.
    And just a matter of time before 2 replaces 1.
    And who are the Cowboys and Packers again?

    i rewatched the game today. KC should have won but Mahomes's receivers let him down. they did not show up to play. Also I think Andy Reid did screw up clock management in the 4th not just the second, they scored way too fast Pats should not have got the ball back with enough time to score

  • DarinDarin Posts: 6,247 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Mahomes wasn't really blameless himself. Missed a wide open Damien Williams streaking for the end zone
    in the first half. Could have been 14-7 at half.
    I think he will correct mistakes like that in the future. He will think about throws like that before just
    instinctively rifling it out there. I think one thing he needs to work on is knowing the speed of the receivers.
    He can't just fire away like everyone is Tyreek Hill.

  • galaxy27galaxy27 Posts: 7,113 ✭✭✭✭✭

    dunno if this was touched on previously, but the fact that Tyreek had only THREE targets and ONE(!) catch the entire game is a defensive game plan executed to perfection

    when Steve's hands get tired from rubbing BB down i'll step in for a few minutes because that was highly impressive. i didn't think anyone could silence that jackrabbit

    the KC loss is just another reason to dispel with all the "Andy Reid is one of the best HC's of his era" which was starting to circulate prior to/during that game.

    Those Dallas teams for which White played were also better than the teams Romo played for. Unless you think football is tennis.

    You can take White all you want and that's perfectly fine but he still wasn't better than Romo.

    I just knew I could count on you for that. You always have that same excuse for Romo. When in fact at times Romo had just about as good a team as White and Aikman. The difference is White and Aikman got it done. Aikman even more so!

    Romo was a choke artist.....everyone out here seems to know that except you and Mark!

    At your suggestion I did. The very first 3 polls I found all had Romo at #3 and White behind him so it’s obviously not a fact. I’m sure if I looked up more polls most would have Romo #3. It doesn’t mean it’s right it just means that the majority of people think Romo is better then White. IMO it’s not even close.

    My opinion. Romo was a more talented QB then White. White played within his abilities and didn't try to do too much. Romo, because of his better abilities, did try to do too much at times, which cost his team. Some would say White didn't have to do too much because he could rely on his good teams to have him just manage the game, while Romo had to try to do too much because his teams weren't that great. I think if Romo played on Danny White's teams, and just played within himself, he would be looked on more favorably. I think because of Romo's great mistakes, he should be punished on the scale of greatness.

    Romo had to carry his Cowboys teams on his back. They had a shell of a defense and not as many weapons on offense.

    Aikman is certainly the most overrated of the Dallas QBs. I've looked at his stats, very pedestrian.
    The running game and the defense carried the Dallas teams during Aikmans' time there.

    Only one time did Aikman have more than 20 TD passes in a season, with 23.

    FYI in case you didn’t notice the article was written in 2012. Romo had some of his best years after this article was written. So again not that close IMO

    I guess we will have to agree to disagree on Romo. You like him and to me he was an all time choke artist and I am glad he his gone.

    I'll give Aikman the benefit of the doubt then and say he was a pretty good QB because he did have to
    hand the ball off to Emmitt Smith a lot. If he didn't have Emmitt and still had the great Dallas O line I'm sure
    his numbers would look much better if he had to pass the ball more.
    He was maybe a victim of circumstances and didn't have as many passing attempts as a lot of his contemporaries.

    Aikman was a great QB. The Cowboys were a run oriented team which hurt his numbers. But he was one of the most accurate passers in the NFL.

    I don't know how anyone can look at what White did in post season compared to what Romo did and call Romo better.??????

    So, by your reasoning, Bob Griese was a far superior QB than Marino?

    Its always the same argument with you. Romo did not win it all so it was all his fault. i believe than Danny White did have better teams than Romo, although they were on the decline. But, to say that Romo and Aikman had essentially the same teams is an absolute joke and casts light on how little your knowledge really is.

    I have never said that Romo and Aikman had the same team. Romo did have Dez in his prime and a RB named Murrey(sp).

    Sure Aikman had a great team, but he still had to do his part and he did it great. Whereas Romo cost the Cowboys games by choking at crunch times. Most everyone out here has agreed to that except for a few Romo lovers. I don't know if they actually believe it or if they are just messing with me.

    Moss had the perfect "tool set" all that was missing was guts.

    During his career he played with some of the best (and a few bad) QB's of all-time. He should have rewritten all the records for receiving. First Bret Favre then even Tom Brady couldn't win with him.

    After Cris Carter left the Vikings Randy became a HUGE pain in the neck. I also noticed he stopped giving a very good effort on the field.

    Moss is a HUGE disappointment. Just as Romo is to you. I saw it time after time, refused to go over the middle, instead only running his "fly" patterns and then he even quit before a game was over because he was "tired".

    Did Romo, or any other player you can think of ever do that?
