Read what I said. Their wide outs are smarter not more talented.

Maybe they're better coached ever considered that?

From reading what you've said it's clear you haven't watched the Rams.

Before we hired Garrett Wade was the coach the players quit on him. Do you see my point? It's coaching!

I got alot of these

TO's football IQ is why he dropped balls? Your point was Football IQ. Check his stats in 2007 and get back to me homeboy. Garrett was here in 2007, NO?


I have some of these too

What you're pointing out makes the Rams 3-2 start under Fisher even more impressive. That team doesn't have close to the talent the Cowboys have but are playing better football. They beat a Seattle team that totally throttled the Cowboys and just beat a 4-0 Cardinals team.

Hell, I'll give it a shot.

1. Since Garrett has become coach the overall talent and quality of the team has improved. Our defense in particular is loaded with young talent and I believe it could become one of the best in the NFL for years to come. Some people here hate on Claiborne because of the cost but he could become a a true shutdown corner.

2. We have put an emphasis on character guys. Dez is really the only guy on our roster who is a question mark IMO.

3. When we are clicking we can beat anyone. I truly believe that.

4. Jason Witten and other leaders have endorsed him.

5. He is 15-13 as our head coach. He took over a team that was obviously flawed and has done good work with our roster.

6. He has upside. Lets not forget he has only coached 1 full season as our head coach. That was last year with a short off season. The jury is still out on this season. If he brings us to 3-2 after this Sunday, (a tough task against Baltimore) things will look a lot brighter around here.

7. As Hos and other posted have said, we are not the only team who thinks he is head coaching material.

8. We have the head to head against the giants.

9. We have a better record than the Packers.

10. We were VERY close to winning the NFCE last year.

I agree, Romo often holds the ball too long.

..and this post means nothing in regards to how good or bad each team's OL is. Care to qualify your earlier statement on how the Rams OL is "far better" than the Cowboys when they have their guy pressured more, hit more, and sacked more?

Other than, "Tony is good at sensing pressure and avoiding sacks."

..because, while that's true, its not an argument that the Rams line is far better.
