This is a poll posted on http://www.dallascowboys.com/. I think we should all vote.

I posted it here in the Stadium because JC is involved (and trailing).

JC has the most left to prove. To me McNabb continues to be the one to watch in 2008 because he could lift the Eagles to a division title or have a middling year and keep the team back to 7-9 to 9-7.

I'm stunned that Eli is neck-and-neck with McNabb.

Romo's only been around 2 years as an on field player in the NFL. I wouldn't call his performances 'failures' just yet :laugh:

Seems to me as if he is growing as a quarterback just as Campbell is doing.

McNabb at 31 is clearly the most veteran passer in the division and the one who continues to have injury questions, that's why he is the wildcard.

He could be great or he could be average. And until we see him in action there is no way to tell what the Eagles are going to do in 2008.

You never know which McNabb will show up to the game. He can be dangerous.

In terms of potential, years left of playing time, weapons, and pure athletic ability, JC is very dangerous. I feel Zorn and the WCO will open JC up use the above mentioned characteristics.

Romo could lead the pack but his late season struggles and, IMO, his tendency to get distracted are holding him back.

Sorry, folks. But if I'm voting for most dangerous QB, I'm voting for the one with the ring.

Yes, Eli might well turn into the Eli we all know and love. but
a) He might not.
b) He's the only one who's proven that he might go all the way.

BTW, looking at their site,

Somebody sure wants Dallas to get a lot of TV time. Out of 16 games, only 4 of them are at 1:00 Eastern. And five of them are nationwide prime time.

(Here's hoping they lose a bunch of 'em.)

Romo.
He can be dangerous to opponents by making great plays with his feet and his arm.

And he can be dangerous to his team by making crazy passes when he should just throw the ball away.

McNabb is the most dangerous, and this is an easy one. He'll make 5 bad/average plays in a row, and all of a sudden if you lose containment, he's capable of huge scrambles and big pass plays.

ADF
June-21st-2008, 09:39 PM
If we are talking about the most dangerous NFC East QB to the Redskins then it's easily McNabb. Over the past 4 seasons, he's averaged a 100 QB rating against us. Eli has averaged a 67. If only we could have stopped Tiki. We've only played 3 games against Romo so his sample size isn't as large. He averages a 89 against us.

Too bad the Eagles continually put him in situations that he has to scramble. He is one awkward hit away from retirement. And that's sad. I remember watching him scramble last year and thinking how he looked like he had arthritis in both knees.

June-21st-2008, 10:01 PM
When healthy, McNabb is still the most dangerous and best QB in the NFC East IMO. From a physical standpoint, Romo is now probably more dangerous simply because of how quick he is in the pocket.

On the other hand, he has shown though that he spooks very easily when heavily pressured and can be goaded into scrambling frantically.

Blackest Eyes
June-21st-2008, 10:46 PM
I will agree with the McNabb comments. When he is healthy he is a very dangerous QB. But when McNabb is hurt...like always...I would say Romo is the most dangerous.

Doesn't JC idolize McNabb? I think that means that JC could wind up being the most dangerous in our division. But as of right now, I've got to say that I think that Romo can get more done with TO than McNabb can with Westbrook, so I'd say Romo is the most dangerous - until playoff time, then I'd say Eli since he has won it all.

I will go with Eli as well, he's the one with the ring, not Romo, McNabb or Campbell. But the fact is all 3 of our division opponents have very good qb's, and if anyone disagrees with that thier blind or they rode that short bus to school. Although JC showed flashes last year that he can be a big time qb, he should really excell in this WCO.

jujuskinsfan
June-22nd-2008, 05:32 AM
McNabb was a good QB but I think his best years are behind him now. He might have smth left but not enough to carry the eagles on his shoulders IMO. Eli is clearly overrated after his fantastic 08 playoffs run. There's 50% of chances that he comes back being as average as he was before. Romo put up some great numbers in 07 and there are lots of chances that he does it again next year. As for JC, he has a lot to prove, but he is the one with Romo who has the brightest future IMO.

He was the only reason they had ANY success at all, he is one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL when he is playing at his best.I like McNabb but he has not been that team. Through all McNabbs injuries the Eagles have had numerous other QB's step into their system with successful results. If any one player has been their team it would be Westbrook. The reality is they need both healthy for the whole season if they want to reach levels they have not been capable of reaching.

The most dangerous from a Cowboys fan perspective? As strange as it sounds, Eli. Although he was very average and inconsistent all last year, coming up big against the Pats twice and in the SB has to boost his confidence.

By reason of deduction in your scenario that leaves "ELI" as the #1 QB in the east.;)

After this season, Campbell will be considered one of the game's best. I have a bet with my Dad (who hates Campbell) that he will go to the Pro Bowl this year... or if he doesn't, it would be a huge snub (because of his play quality).

dizzinator53
June-22nd-2008, 09:48 AM
Based on past performance they are all better than Campbell ... so what does it matter. Skins will finish 4th in the Division this year unless we get more production out of the QB. The sad truth is ... Collins is as good as any of the others ... but he won't play.

No, Collins is not. Where the hell are you getting this information? Collins is the textbook definition of "Product of the System." :bsflag:

Really? I have Jason going #4 for your same reasoning. I mean, Eli was the one that came out of nowhere. He had spent enough time being inconsistent and lackluster that people forgot how high he went in the draft and what blood runs in his veins. I still don't like the guy and think there is a better chance he will slip back into mediocrity, but Jason comes out of nowhere..... to throw interceptions in the 4th quarter. He hasn't sealed the deal yet. Thats the perception of other teams about Jason from what I can gather from interviews and sound bytes from NFLN. "Could be awesome, not there yet."

Despite the fandom surrounding the cowboys and the fact they are winless in the playoffs for the last 12 years, Romo has the better team around him. Any player is more dangerous when they have a supporting cast. McNabb is probably scarier when he is healthy, but that hasn't happened for a full season in 5 or 6 years.

I am going with either Eli or Romo solely because of age and wins. Dallas wins a lot of games and New York wins all the important ones.

Granted, this is all based on the 1 1/2 seasons all 4 of these guys have been playing at the same time....

To me, the QBs in the NFC East have tremendous potential, but are extremely inconsistent.

If you like a QB who vomits at the line of scrimmage and loves spending time with the medical staff, give me McNabb.

For a whole bunch of meaningless regular season victories, and a generally queer attitude, give me Romo.

If you want a guy who can lead the league in interceptions and ride the success of his defense through the postseason, you gotta take Eli-zabeth Manning.

Now if you want to start a franchise with a young gun-slinger who has been forced to learn a new playbook nearly every season since being a freshman in college... a guy who can move in the pocket and throw the ball about 80 yards in the air... someone who is respected and well-liked in the locker-room... a guy who has a striking resemblance to Lionel Richie and dates Miss DC, you gotta give it to Jason Campbell.

June-22nd-2008, 06:40 PM
I have Donovan McNabb as the most dangerous. I'm assuming he's healthy of course. "Dangerous" in the sense of being explosive on offense, when he's got the tools to do so. When he's on-target, McNabb finds so many ways to make magic with a limited receiving corps. Then there will be those games, when inexplicably he'll really lay an egg. That seems to be happening more often these days, but he could bounce back to good form in 2008.

So, riight behind, its ... Eli coming! I'm beginning to see a gritty streak about Eli Manning -- and he's really evolving into the leader of that team, since Tiki left. He runs hot and cold too, but seems to be finding ways to get the job done more offen.

Apparently, Tony Romo was annointed by the Dallas board as ... the most dangerous QB in the NFC East. I think it's premature to claim that mantle from McNabb. Romo has a much better supporting cast of offensive weapons than McNabb. I'll grant, Romo has the leadership aura that seems to work with the Dallas team, and he doesn't get flustered easily. But, if TO goes down, my sense is that Romo doesn't look as dangerous.

As for Jason Campbell, I still think he has more work to do to prove himself as a "really dangerous QB." True, there have been a few times, when he's flashed his talent and really threw a scare into our opponents. But those times were not predictable' Jason is still learning and consequently has had some very uneven performances. He undercuts his own danger-factor with all those three-and-outs , or when he wind up stopping himself from pulling in the 'W' with a bad play. I just don't think it's gotten to the point that teams playing the Skins, automatically think, "...gosh, we've gotta do everything we can to stop or at least contain Jason Campbell!" Nope, teams playing us still are focussed on stopping Portis and our running game.
Hopefully this year, Zorn changes that!http://extremeskins.com/forums/images/smilies/cheers.gif

Hasn't he been in the League for like 6 years at this point, tho? I would say that is failure, especially since he has done...well, nothing.


Seems to me as if he is growing as a quarterback just as Campbell is doing.


After 6 years, he'd better be growing. Most QBs don't last that long with one team at all. He has managed to dupe the Cowboys FO into thinking he's worth holding onto. After 6 years & he's just now growing?



McNabb at 31 is clearly the most veteran passer in the division and the one who continues to have injury questions, that's why he is the wildcard.


I think it's because he's black. ;)


He could be great or he could be average. And until we see him in action there is no way to tell what the Eagles are going to do in 2008.


They are going to suck, like they always do. McNabb may be slightly above average, when he's 100%. And when he is 100%, he usually chokes.

June-23rd-2008, 01:15 AM
ok this logic might sound kind of weird but i think that you could make the argument that jason is the most dangerous qb in the east. the reason for this is that he has been plagued by inconsistent play but he has shown flashes of being a great qb(see the first dallas game this year). if he could actually put it all together for an entire season then he could lead us to a division title. with romo, mcnabb, and eli you pretty much know what you are getting but jason is the wild card.

tml6157
June-23rd-2008, 01:50 AM
JC is not dangerous but he could be. Honestly he is last out of the 4 and to think otherwise is nuts. Manning won a SB, McNabb got there and is very very good when healthy and Romo tied a franchise best 13 win and was putting up 35 points at will last season. I love JC but he has a LOT to prove before he moves up from last on this list.

SkinFaninOKC
June-23rd-2008, 02:49 AM
I voted McNabb. Jason's "danger" has yet to be realized while McNabb, on some level, has proven his, and while Eli has the "Ring" he isn't dangerous running the ball.

ImRickJamesB
June-23rd-2008, 05:29 AM
Hasn't he been in the League for like 6 years at this point, tho? I would say that is failure, especially since he has done...well, nothing.

Are you Joking? First of all, Romo has yet to begin his 6th season...

Secondly, Romo had more TD's and yards last year, than Campbell has in his whole career... Romo also had more TD's than Eli and Campbell combined, or more than McNabb and Campbell combined...

I know what's coming next..... But what has he done in the playoffs... No doubt that's true, but Eli hadn't won a playoff game until last year either... Romo's only been starting for a season and a half, and thus far, he's on his way to legendary status... So if a Super Bowl ring and post season successes are the true measure of a QB, then I guess you'll agree that Brad Johnson or Eli Manning are better than Dan Marino was...... All that said, I will concede that Romo's career will be a failure, if he doesn't bring #6 to Dallas, but I think he'll bring us #6, #7, and #8......;)


After 6 years, he'd better be growing.

Again, its only been 5 years... Learn to count..... Campbell's entering his 4th season, when is he going to stop sucking?


Most QBs don't last that long with one team at all. He has managed to dupe the Cowboys FO into thinking he's worth holding onto. After 6 years & he's just now growing?

Yeah he's growing alright, growing into that bust in Canton.....:cheers:

Yeah right? If by legendary you mean coming to a screaching stop at the end of the season, or blowing the big play, he's already a legend.
