Frankly, I'd rather have a QB that chokes in that situation than a QB that doesn't put me in that situation. Dallas put up 48 points and Romo threw for 500+ yards. How many other QBs could have done what he did today?

Point is that just being in the game at that point is a major accomplishment. If Sam did what Romo did today and we ended up losing to the best team in the NFL due to him throwing a late pick after the O put up 48 points, I wouldn't be harping on the kid. Hell of a day just to make it game. Manning and Denver's O are unstoppable right now.

So you'd basically rather have a QB that gets a bunch of pretty stats and cost the game? It's all for naught...

We are geared to play lower scoring games. Not shoot outs.
I agree with your comments, but Sam is never going to be in a shoot out with Fisher as his HC.

Huh? My comment wasn't even referring to Sam. I was just saying that it's not fair to harp on Romo for being a choker after the game he had.
I wasn't taking a shot at Sam.

Maybe I misunderstood. But your response included reference to Sam doing what Romo did.

Sure. Give me the guy that lead his offense to put up 48 points and put up a bunch of "pretty stats". If we manage to lose, he's the last guy I'll be angry at.
Maybe you didn't see that Denver's offense scored 51 points. And yet you're focusing on the 1 bad play Romo made? His offense scored 48 points. How often is that not enough to win? It's not like Romo threw 5 pick sixes to go with those 48 points.
