Peyton Manning

6 years until 1st playoff win

9 years until 1st superbowl win

John Elway

4 years until 1st playoff win

14 years until 1st superbowl win

Phillip Rivers

Only 3 playoff wins since taking over in 2006

Eli Manning

3 years until 1st playoff win, went on to win superbowl

4 years later until another playoff win, went on to win superbowl

Tony Romo

4 playoff appearances, 1 win since taking over in 2006

I guess what this means. Tony Romo must be as good or better as Peyton Manning and John Elway. At least in this stage of his career as opposed to where they stood in the same amount of years. And Eli Manning and Phillip Rivers are both better than either Elway or P. Manning up to this point in their careers.

Oh and btw, Eli is a far superior QB to what Dan Marino ever was . I mean, Marino only ever led the Dolphins to 1 conference championship. Phillip Rivers must be just a step behing Marino. Much sarcasm for those don't get it.

All I'm saying is, Romo has been a fulltime starter for all of 5 years. Very few of the great QB's in the history of the league led their teams to a superbowl immediately. I'm not saying it hasn't happened, but it is not the norm.
