I had a terrible nightmare... - Dallas Cowboys Forum

dragon_mikal · 12-31-2012

Man what a nightmare! I dreamed the Cowboys went into FedEx Field and totally crapped the bed, thus breaking the hearts of millions of Cowboys fans in the process.

Wait...holy crap it really happened.

What a DISASTER. A complete and utter disaster. Man oh man my boy Tony Romo really made it hard for me. Is it possible for him to drop the ball any worse than the way he did? I mean...if he had played well and lost it would have been different but he looked bad. Really bad. Now every mediot and most fans are going to pummel this guy all off-season and probably into next season as well. I mean what a complete and utter clusterbomb of a game for him. I honestly feel bad for the guy but I can't say he doesn't deserve most of the heat.

As far as Jason Garrett goes...he screwed the pooch, too. He had no answer at all for Washington's blitzes and downright refused to adjust at all. No screens to slow down the rush, no slants to attack the middle of the field, routes that take forever to develop even though he knew the Redskins were going to bring the house...typical fair and what we have come to expect from him. I wouldn't be completely honest if he had started to win me over during the last six or seven weeks but last night really put a stop to my growing confidence in the guy.

We all know he will be back, though. Jerry Jones has a mancrush on the guy.

The defense was better than I expected. Yes they were terrible against the run but they made enough stops to win the game IMHO.

Anyway...this is going to be one LONG off-season thanks to the crap we were treated to last night.

It was terrible. 7 out of every 8 games we are completely out game planned on the offensive side of the ball and can't seem to make adjustments. I am sick of it. I assume its part Garrett, part Romo. But something has to change.

When people stop reacting like kids and go back and watch the game with a measured temperament, they'll notice that it was a team bed crapping effort. Yes, Romo tossed a couple of picks facing heavy blitz pressure. And we had a penalty late on Hatcher that basically lost any chance for a final drive. And we gave up TWO FREAKING HUNDRED YARDS of rushing to their RB, not to mention the repeated long runs of their QB. And yes, we made stupid decisions late in the first half not to either treat that drive as a 2 play 3rd down or try the long field goal.

PLENTY of pooping in the sheets by this team. News flash - they aren't very good. They are exactly what we thought they were - average.

Oh I know last night was a complete team effort. Unfortunately Tony Romo is the face of the team so this loss will be put on him. Right or wrong it comes with being the quarterback of this team.

He just didn't help his case against his doubters. Last night was the worst thing that could have happened.
