In any matter, using team wins and losses to justify or knock QB play is pretty unfair (for lack of better word).
It's hard to say. I think Smith in Reid's system is or potentially could be as good as Romo, but romo in a Reid system would be pretty awesome.
In regards to Romo, is it fair to say he wouldn't have to have all those comeback wins if he played better earlier? Chicken and egg I guess.

I'd say he wouldn't have as many comeback wins if he played better earlier, but it's also a team game. An unreliable defense and not great team around him (weak OL, weak running game) contribute to the need for all those comebacks, too.
I don't think Romo is a superstar by any means, and he definitely has flaws. But to suggest Alex Smith is on a level that Romo doesn't "come near" as Randy Covitz did is just incredibly lazy, misinformed and stupid.
