I'll go ahead and say it:

Romo. And by the end of the season, I think most here are going to agree with me. I certainly can't argue with Brees or even Warner. But I think Romo proved how valuable the guy is when he was injured (although some of that was obviously Brad Johnson's ineptness). Still, even with four fingers, he's putting up numbers as good as anyone. Now with the splint will be gone, the smile back, and new weapons at his disposal (Roy Williams continuing to learn the Cowboys system and Bennett gradually developing into a usable tight end), I think he's going to cement his place atop the NFL these last four weeks. He's gotta do it against tough competition, but I do think he's got it in him. We'll see.

If we can win 3 of the next 4, then I think Romo will make a very strong case for MVP (especially the way Brees & Warner have been playing lately - they both threw picks at pivotal points this week that ultimately cost their team the game...)

One of the most underrated things about Romo is that he doesn't fold in the clutch. At quarterback anyway. A minor complaint guys have on him is he throws a pick or a fumble a game but they always happen in the 1st half it seems. It never happens at terrible points in the game.

Better if you go by passing efficiency. Warner and Brees are putting up gaudy yardage totals but they're only 3 TD's ahead of Romo. Plus he's throwing for more yards per attempt than both of them.
