Well, in all seriousness let's put some context to this because it really is a legitimate discussion.
Here's a guy that put up great, great numbers during the regular season, and you can see how the Cowboys started to fold down the stretch and it spilled over into the playoffs. To me, a great quarterback can out play his stats. If that makes sense. Like today, for instance, Eli didn't light it up but he didn't lose the game either. Romo showed an incredible lack of poise today and down the stretch this year. And yes, even dating back to the Seattle game last year too.
If we can't label him a bona-fide choker, then he's certainly establishing a trend that's for sure.
