Ironic Twist: Romo Wins December Award

Posted by nickeatman at 1/6/2010 4:06 PM CST on truebluefanclub.com

[FONT=verdana,geneva]Ok, so these awards such as NFC Player of the Week or the month aren’t usually a big deal. They’re nice for the player, but nothing that really matters in the big picture. [/FONT]

[FONT=verdana,geneva]But there is something about Tony Romo being named the NFC Offensive Player of the Month for December – you know that black hole on the calendar that held this team and its quarterback hostage. [/FONT]

[FONT=verdana,geneva]So for Romo to not only exercise those demons, going 3-2 in the final five games of the season to lead the Cowboys to an NFC East title, has to be a little more gratifying than just any ol’ month in any season. Romo has won the award twice before, both in November during the 2006 and 2007 seasons. [/FONT]

[FONT=verdana,geneva]But in December and January, Romo had four of the five games with a QB rating of at least 104.0. His other game was the 17-0 win over Washington where Romo’s rating was 86.1. [/FONT]

[FONT=verdana,geneva]During the final five, Romo threw nine touchdowns and just two interceptions, with three 300-yard performances.[/FONT]

Well, waddaya know.

Great month, with or without the award. But it's unusual to see Romo recognized like this anymore.

It's a sign that this team has turned the corner. Super Bowls are on tap.

Nice.

Let's hope January is a long and fruitful one for Romo as well.

I'm not certain that I'm remembering currently, but were both of the INTs tipped balls or just one?

I'd make one for Ware, but who's in his league?

Wait, you gave me an idea.
