Lest we forget how many post season games did Peyton Manning loose before he finally got a play off win? 3 straight years, one and done. And that is more than Romo, so I guess in your definition Manning is a "choker". And he does have 7 playoff losses.

Brett Favre----10 post season losses.

Same thing happened to another QB, Elway was his name, had lots more playoff losses than Romo.

But you know what they say, "winning cures all ailments". But when Romo and the Cowboys do eventually win in the playoffs, maybe this year, maybe next year, who knows, I am sure you will find something else to complain about. Maybe the part in his hair?

You won't find me in the "Romo is a playoff choker" crowd, but Campbell would have likely had a playoff appearance in 2007 had he not been hurt. That's debatable, I guess.

From my perspective, the Cowboys haven't been a good team in Romo's tenure anymore than the Redskins have been for Campbell. Romo's personal performance might have pushed a bad team into the playoffs in 2006, which might be the shining acheivement between their respective careers, but they both made the playoffs with quality teams in 2007, and missed with flawed teams in 2008.

While the TD numbers speak for themselves, it's not completely inconceivable to think that Campbell might be the better quarterback someday. It's just hard to judge off of 2 and a half years a careers worth of accomplishments.
