Yeah, I don't want this to sound like I'm a big Romo homer or something. I don't disagree with anything Dane says about him. At all. But at the same time I'm guessing they'd have at worst 4 or 5 wins with him behind center, if not the same 6. And I have a suspicion that while they might have more turnovers (and hence risk giving up a few more points) they might also be scoring more.

I'm not as sold on "clutch" Alex Smith, because I tend to think the plays he's not making the rest of the game balance out the handful he's made at the end (or think about that the other way around, it sounds less negative that way). A statement that I contend applies to the offense as a whole. I think great for half a quarter, even if it's the fourth, paired with awful for 3.5 quarters makes for an overall "ugh".
