So now that Romo's season is officially over, how would you grade his individual performance for this year? Did he disappoint you, or surprise you this year? Was his performance about where you expected it to be? Use a 100 point scale if you grade him, because that way we could add up the average grade everyone put. Feel free to add your reasoning to your grade, it'd make for a lot better discussion.
Well I guess I'll go first.
Grade - 88 (B+)
Pros - Romo didn't really turn the ball over much this year, he was very conservative on his risk taking chances. He didn't have one game this year where he threw for more then 2 interceptions, and he only had one legit game where he threw for more than one. He was very efficient this year throwing for 31 touchdowns, and in the goal line he was superb as well with 14 touchdowns / 0 interceptions. Also he was really clutch this year, while in the 4th QTR alone he had a 105.6 QBRating which was good for 10 touchdowns / 4 interceptions. He had 3 GWD this year, 2 of which came on the road against divisional opponents in critical games. Also, at times this year he had no help from his surrounding cast, yet he found a way to win or keep the game within winnable distance.
Cons - Played too conservative at times. Didn't really throw the deep ball well this year, missed long TD passes he usually makes. Had a rough stretch in the middle of the year where his accuracy was off, even on shorter routes. His zip at times seemed down, and at times his accuracy was sporadic. Possibly could've been dealing with a back injury all year long, and now has to have back surgery for a herniated disk.
His performance was about where I expected it to be, though his lack of a deep ball and conservativeness shocked me some.
