While the cynics will often mention the Cowboys' lack of ultimate success during the Romo era -- his teams were 2-4 in six playoff appearances between 2006 and 2014 -- they also fail to see the big picture. Like the low-drafted Tom Brady, Romo represented one of the NFL's great success stories. Plucked from Division II obscurity at a time when mid-level NCAA scouting was not a strength in most personnel departments, he worked his way through the system and up the depth chart. On the field, his combination of rambling playmaker and precision passer fit perfectly with a series of showtime offenses built by Jones. From the Terrell Owens and Terry Glenn era to the rise of Dez Bryant, Romo was one of the franchise's most important mainstays.
