Just as it's a widely accepted truth that Peppers used to always get owned by rookie offensive tackles, it seems to also be an accepted truth that quarterbacks making their first start fair well against our team. Because this is a pretty particular thing to try and google to find out, I was hoping I could pick everyones brain for how rookie or first time QB's have actually faired against our team. I realize this is not Beck's first start on Sunday, but it has been a while since he has been a starter so I thought it might be an interesting topic for discussion regardless. I may just be drunk, but didn't Tony Romo start his first game againt us once upon a time?

Tony Romo

Romo began the season as a backup to starter Drew Bledsoe. He took his first regular season snap at quarterback in a home game against the Houston Texans on October 15. His first NFL pass was a 33 yard completion to Sam Hurd. His only other pass of the game was a two-yard touchdown pass, his first in the NFL, to Terrell Owens.[11]

One week later on October 23, 2006, Romo replaced Drew Bledsoe for the start of the second half of a game against the New York Giants. His first pass was tipped and intercepted. His game stats in only his second NFL appearance were: 14 completions on 25 attempts for 227 yards, two touchdowns, and three interceptions (one of which was returned for a touchdown). Two days later, on October 25, Cowboys head coach Bill Parcells announced that Romo would be the Cowboys starting quarterback for the October 29 game against the Carolina Panthers on NBC Sunday Night Football, in Week 8 of the 2006 season. Romo led the Cowboys to victory in his first game as a starter, 35–14. In that game, Romo was Sunday Night Football's "Rock Star of the Game."

I remember Gus Frerotte for the Vikings in 2008 lighting us up... Threw for over 200yrds.. That was also the game with the infamous Gamble, Marshall, lateral toss.

Not to nitpick, but I think that lateral toss disaster was when we played them in the second week of 2006. Smith had the bad hammy, and we had Keshawn that year. Remember, shortly after we botched that lateral, was when the Vikings faked a field goal and threw a TD? Peppers was a beast that game, all over Brad Johnson. We had them beat until that stupid call by our former head coach.

I don't think Gamble was doing punt returns in 2008.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
