shite the bed against the Seahawks in 2006 with the infamous fumble.
shite the bed against the Giants in 2007.
shite the bed against the Eagles in 2008 with a playoff berth on the line.
(I'm going to throw in the playoff berth games because they are just as important. Win and you're in.)
shite the bed against the Vikings in 2009.
We can write off 2010 because he got hurt.
Lost to the Giants in 2011 with a playoff berth on the line. Romo played well in this one.
shite the bed in 2012 against the Redskins with a playoff berth on the line.

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.

He didn't really shite the bed in any of the games you listed.

He wasn't even supposed to play the Giants in 2011. Broken thumb and ribs.

A starting QB shouldn't have been holding a FG after leading his team to FG position in the final seconds might I add, vs Seattle.

You obviously disregarded everything I said about the Giants in 07.

And huge lol at shitting the bed vs the Vikings. And do I have to remind you what the Redskins did to the Saints last year. We weren't really a playoff team, about as much as the Saints were.

You've already made clear a few times in this thread that you don't pay much attention to detail. Putting all of those games on Romo is hilarious. Romo has never really had a David Tyree to make a miraculous play and save him. He's been blessed with the likes of Patrick Crayton, to set him up for failure in tight situations. If anything, Romo isn't lucky, I'll give you that.
