Tony Romo: Engaged, but Will He Ever Get a Ring for Jerry Jones and the Cowboys?

James EvensDec 17, 2010

Most everyone knows by now that Tony Romo recently was engaged to sports reporter Candice Crawford, but the real question is, will he ever get a ring for Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones?

Romo, the highly regarded eight-year veteran for the Cowboys, is currently injured, but that doesn't stop the question from being raised.

With this season's playoff hopes dashed, will the Romo-led Dallas Cowboys win a Super Bowl?

Here are a few reasons for and against Tony Romo winning a Super Bowl.

He Has Thrown for a Lot of Yards

MINNEAPOLIS - OCTOBER 17:  Quarterback Tony Romo #9 of the Dallas Cowboys walks off the field following the game against the Minnesota Vikings at Mall of America Field on October 17, 2010 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Vikings defeated the Cowboys 24-21.

Over his young career, Romo has thrown for numerous yards: 16,650 yards, to be exact.

We all know, however, that yards are not everything.

You must make meaningful throws that account for points—something that Romo has yet to prove in his career.

He Has a Great Arm

There is no doubting that Tony Romo has a great arm. Romo has the ability to throw the ball down the field and can really launch it if necessary.

This is a great asset to him and his teammates and will help him throughout his career, if he can learn to be accurate with it.

His Interceptions Skyrocketed This Season

Last season, everyone thought that Romo finally had his interception problem dealt with, as he only threw nine the whole season. Little did they know that he would come back and throw seven this season in only six games played.

This will not help him win a Super Bowl and could ultimately cost him a chance to go down as a Cowboy legend.

He Knows How to Get to the End Zone

Romo has been great about finding receivers in the end zone throughout his career. In full seasons he has played, Romo has broken 20 touchdowns in each one except for his first year, when he had 19.  

Romo is great about finding open receivers for big plays, and this could be the one thing that could get him to a Super Bowl.

He Just Isn't Clutch

Whether it be the muffed extra-point try in the playoffs or just throwing an interception at the wrong time of the game, Romo just isn't clutch. He doesn't seem to be able to pull through in the big moments.

This will ultimately cost him the chance to ever get a Super Bowl ring as a starting quarterback.
