I've seen a lot of comments like this one on this thread. I am not totally sold on Romo being the next Manning or Brady but he, for sure, is much better than Bledsoe. I know you guys didn't watch the game like I did, but for those who remember, there was a 3rd and 13 play that I think told me that he is 100 folds better than Bledsoe.

When the ball was snapped, the Panthers got very close to Romo and almost had a sack, instead, Romo slides JUST ENOUGH to the left and throws a very nice pass to Witten, I know for a fact that Bledsoe whould have been sacked. Twice Romo ran few yards to get the first down, now Bledsoe could've ran like that and we all know that, but he doesn't decide quick enough. By the time he decides to run everyone in the stadium, let alone the field and the sidelines know that it is the ONLY option.

I don't think the Panthers played poor, but that was as good as they can do against a QB that can run. Don't believe me, I got your proof, look at Vick's numbers against them He looks like a superman against them. The Panthers look great against an im-mobile QB like Bledsoe and Brunell but with someone who can make them miss a tackel or run out of the pocket to make a throw they tend to look very average.

Romo made some plays in that game that Bledsoe just can't. I saw him side step pressure a few times to make a throw or scramble for a first down. If he can keep the mistakes to a minimum there's no question he gives the Cowboys the better chance of winning over Bledsoe.

I'm sure Bledsoe would've made some throws that Romo can't (yet).

Yeah, I was just about to reference that play. Give the kid some credit guys, that was quite a defense he was going against.
