Why would Denver want Romo?
He's still young, he's shown ability and produced in the NFL but might be under a bit too harsh a microscope now.
That's because teams would never trade guys like Ben Rothlisberger or Matt Ryan and others for Cutler because some teams put a premium on QB's who actually win games.
Perhaps. I maintain the only reason Cutler was on the trading block was the new coach wanted his guy for his system. He isn't just trying to dump Cutler.
I certainly agree that the allure to Cassell was that he knows the system. In terms of skill level it's not even close as Cutler blows him away and I'd even say Cutler has the best skill set in the NFL at the QB position. Teams don't usually try to move guys like that unless there is something about them they don't like. In Cutler's case I think, until proven otherwise, he's got a knock on him as someone who does not make his team better. You look at Cutler's collegiate career and you realize that no matter how good he is he could not make Vanderbilt a power in the SEC. But what is damning is that he did not make them better. Same thing so far in Denver. I'm beginning to think Cutler is the second coming of Jeff George. An elite talent who for whatever reason(s) lacks the intangibles or leadership ability to make his team better.
Your assertion is that the Denver Broncos are not better because Jay Cutler is the Quarterback.Have you seen Jeff George's statistics through his first three years? These two aren't trending similarly.
UMM Shanahan is a big Romo fan. When Romo was an undrafted free agent Shanahan wanted him bad. Shanahan offered a bigger contract then any other team but Romo wanted to go to Dallas and took less money to do so. Shanahan possibly being the coach in 2010 in Dallas means next to nothing for Cutler sense Cutler would not even be in Denver had Romo went there instead of Dallas. This is not going to happen and Dallas would not even consider this. It is on Denver the mess they are in with Cutler and Dallas is not going to bail them out that is for sure.
I would take Romo over Cutler even with the age difference.
Depends on the alternative and his new HC felt Cassell was a better one.Your assertion is that the Denver Broncos are not better because Jay Cutler is the Quarterback.
Have you seen Jeff George's statistics through his first three years? These two aren't trending similarly.
Shanahan and Romo went to the same college and I'm sure Shanny was fond of him but not that fond. If he was that fond of him he would have drafted him. There is a an extremely big difference between liking the QB from your alma mater who you chose not even draft versus spending a high #1 pick on Cutler when he already had Jake.
