The Cowboys are in good shape at QB for the 2010 season.  30-year old Tony Romo is going to try to get his team into the Super Bowl this year which will be played in Dallas.  He will have a lot of pressure on his shoulders so it will be interesting to see how he responds.  Romo played in all 16 games for the Cowboys last season and he completed 347 of 550 passes (63.1%) for 4,483 yards with 26 TD passes and only 9 INTs (97.6 QB Rating).  Romo also carried the ball 35 times for 105 yards (3.0 ypc) with 1 TD run last year.  Romo has now played in 83 games in his career with the Cowboys and he has completed 1,178 of 1,857 passes (63.4%) for 15,045 yards with 107 TD passes against only 55 INTs (95.6 QB Rating).  Romo has also carried the ball 130 times for 375 yards (2.9 ypc) with 3 TD runs in his career.  Romo has a good enough arm and he’s good at buying time with his legs so he’s about as complete a passer that you’re going to find in the NFL.  He has a 38-17 (69.1%) record during the regular season as a starting QB which is outstanding.

37-year old Jon Kitna will back up Romo again in 2010.  He was not needed by the Cowboys last year and he last played in a real game in 2008 with the Lions.  Kitna has played in 128 games in his NFL career and he has completed 2,462 of 4,114 passes (59.8%) for 27,293 yards with 152 TD passes and 151 INTs (76.6 QB Rating).  Kitna also has carried the ball 279 times for 811 yards (2.9 ypc) with 10 TD carries in his NFL career.  Kitna is a swashbuckler often getting into trouble when he either forces the ball into coverage or fumbles because of his really small hands.  Kitna has a record of 46-69 (40%) in games  that he has started at QB in his NFL career.

24-year old Stephen McGee will enter his second year in the NFL as the Cowboys’ #3 QB.  He is a good runner but will need to refine his throwing before getting onto the field.
