Homer this.
Despite missing three games with a broken pinkie, Dallas Cowboys' quarterback Tony Romo leads all NFL quarterbacks in:
*QB Rating (103.2)
*Average yards per pass attempt (8.5)
*TD-Interception ratio (+13)
If you watched his 331-yard, three-touchdown performance on Thanksgiving, there's no doubt Romo is back to being Romo. Which is great news for the Cowboys, and bad news for the quarterbacks he's leap-frogging in my rankings.
Oh yeah, he's also 7-2 as a starter, behind only Eli Manning and Jeff Garcia in the NFC. Any doubt he again belongs in the Pro Bowl?
While we're at it, who would you trade Romo straight up for today?
If he throws for another 300 in Pittsburgh on Sunday we should hand him our rankings trophy. The Steelers have the NFL's No. 1 pass defense and haven't allowed a 300-yard passer at Heinz Field since 2006.
Fine, I'll take that bet.
