Romo is very similar to LeBron pre-2012.

Everyone called him a choke artist and questioned whether he was clutch, despite NUMEROUS stats that proved otherwise. Then he wins it all in 2012 and 2013 and, except for some hardcore Kobe dick riders on the MSB, it has all gone away.

I think Romo is a top QB in the NFL, and I think he would be dominant on teams like Seattle or SF. However, the stigma of being a choke artist will be with him until he wins a SB.

I can agree with what you said.

Same thing with Peyton Manning and John Elway. It will be amazing what a ring would do to justify Romo's career. It's just a shame that this had to be the end all measurement in the most ultimate of team sports, for some people.

I've seen Romo perform 4 miracles in a game, but he strikes out on the 5th one and is forever condemned for it. This sums up his career so far for me. When you fail at being asked to do very little, that's choking. When you fail trying to do the impossible, it's something different.
