Tony Romo really plays a lot like Brett Favre.

I know, I know. This storyline has been made before and I am not claiming to be a ground breaker on this topic.

I finally decided this during week 16 after watching all the highlights and seeing all the reactions, I couldn't help but come out with one conclusion.

It was clear as day, especially if you look at the way both played against their respective opponents that week, Seattle and Baltimore.

Costly Turnovers. Check.

Inability to produce points. Check.

Belief in arm strength and/or a window that is probably not there. Check.

Now fast fwd to week 17 with both the Jets and Cowboys playing games with playoff implications and both teams arguably favored.

What happens?!

You guessed it.

More of the same in 60 minutes of disaster that now leaves both teams watching the playoffs from the comfort of their own homes (albeit nicer) just like the rest of us.

The funny thing about Sunday for those who were at the bar or had all games on, Romo and Favre threw their second quarter picks roughly five minutes apart.

What better comparison could you ask for?

 I believe Romo went first and I said to myself, "C'mon Romo." Next thing you know I'm hearing "ooohs" and "ahhhs" and I look around to see Jets fans yelling "Brett, what was that!?"

Now if these past two weeks don't serve as a reminder about the legitimate comparisons between these two then you should probably stop reading this right now.
