FWST: Garrett breaks down the Romo turnovers, calls Briggs int a ball knocked loose

[WoodysGirl]

-- Carlos Mendez

Here is Garrett talking about the turnovers in Tuesday’s press conference at Valley Ranch:

“I think we saw the same things on tape that we all saw last night. The first interception was a miscommunication with our quarterback and our receiver not seeing the leverage in the coverage of the corner the same way. Tony thought Dez was going to run a hitch, Dez saw it as press coverage, and he adjusted and went deep around the corner, and Tony had to cut the ball loose. There was pressure by them, and they just didn’t see it the same way, and that resulted in that interception.

“The second interception was to Ogletree. We were down in the red zone, moved the ball down in there. What they do on defense is they, you have to be really efficient throwing the football underneath them over and over again, and they are going to contest some plays. And it was a contested throw to Kevin, and the ball got in on him, and the ball bounced up off of him. Hard to tell if the defender got his hand in or not, but that was a scoring opportunity for us that they created a turnover on.

“The third one, Tony climbed the pocket against some pressure and was really just trying to get up in the pocket versus some edge rush, and he climbed up in there, and as he was pushing the ball up, the ball got knocked out, and Briggs intercepted and ran it back for a touchdown.

For just a fraction of a second as I was reading the thread title I thought it was going to say "Garrett breaks down and cries".

I thought when I watched the highlights of the game that the play where Briggs got what they called an INT looked like the defender knocked it out of Romos hands from behind as well.

I never saw him look like he was trying to shovel pass like so many people were saying. I guess some folks saw something different there but it did look pretty clearly like the rusher coming from behind punched the ball out.

I believe it was a fumble not an INT... Nonetheless they blew Dallas out.

Jerry Jones' hand picked super puppet (2007) is not getting it done. Garrett was way too inexperienced for the Dallas job, and his inexperience has shown up and cost the Cowboys (imo). Some where Jeff Fisher and Jon Gruden are laughing.

Until the Cowboys have a legit GM/front office and a legit head coach, they will continue to under-achieve and produce mediocre results. I will not hold my breath; and I don't care, anymore.

We're all in the same boat. Die hard fans held hostage by the team's owner.

This is legalized assault.

[Doomsay]

I've never heard so much rationalization of interceptions in my life. The other team is indifferent to who's at fault, or what the proximate cause was, stop explaining them away and get some of your own.

If the ball was knocked loose it still was a turnover on romo whether it was and int or fumble it still was in the turnover category but even more the other team got 7pts off of it.
