You said it yourself, 2009! Romo's body wasn't the same in 2009 as it was in 2016. He'd still be the QB if so.Really - I guess you never saw the Minnesota playoff game in 2009!

I think it was Haslett. But what was so disturbing was during the press conference Garrett was asked about what the Commanders were doing and all he could do is say we have to go back and look at the tape. Maybe its just me but why in the H e l l wasn't that looked at during the game by the offensive line coach. Why wasn't Garrett getting somebody to figure out what was happening. He had the same response during the Atlanta game. But that game it was so obvious what was happening it almost made you cry waiting for him to give Green some kind of help.Good point. Was Haslett their DC at the time? Can't remember who it was but for whatever reason Garrett use to be clueless every time Haslett came into town.
Troy Aikman was sacked 11 times in 1991... Next season was the first of 3 superbowl wins.
Dak gets sacked 6 times; well... he needs time to recover and adjust, cause he's a young guy.
Mentally weak.
That's another thing that use to piss me off. Garrett use to make it seem like they were not allowed to make in-game adjustments. Like it was against league rules.I think it was Haslett.

At the time I couldn't fathom what happened. Maybe it was arrogance that Chaz Green can play. But looking back...just another prime example of incompetent coaching. And some fans will tell you blaming Garrett is a cop out but that game was arguably the biggest stain on his career. He sat there time and time again watching Dak get killed by this guy. Completely buried Chaz Green and almost did the same to Dak. Chaz Green was a young player at the time and Dak was in his second year. Should've protected him more that game.
That's what I was gonna say next. The sad part is this happened all throughout his tenure. Even to the end.Yeah, when it's 'by the book', our offense could really tear it up. But when the unexpected happened? Yeah, we were never prepared for that and things usually went badly.
Even this past year against the Jets, Gregg Williams blitzed us all day, confused our blockers, and banged and battered Dak all day. Playing backup tackles sure didn't help, but it was clear that our offense overall wasn't prepared yet again.

That wasn't Cooper getting beat on that film. It was Green and Byron Bell. Two guys with no business lining up at left tackle. But the Cowboys 'brain trust' thought differently and we saw how that worked out.
For the rest of the season, Nate Newton just kept saying "you don't let a young QB get hit like that" because no-win situations like that can set back their development, or even ruin them, and from Atlanta on, Dak's numbers just tanked.
Dak's QB Rating, by quarters of 2017
90.1, 107.6, 64.3, 82.8
I actually forgot they brought Bell out with even worse results.... this was a rough one all around I guess

He had played reasonably well in several previous starts.
Don't ignore facts that don't fit you narrative.
16% of Claiborn's career sacks came in that one game.
I'd like to replace Claiborn in this game with Deacon Jones in his prime just to see what would happen.
Inept play by Green and Inept coaching.

You'd probably be proud of Garrett for thatGarrett was punishing Dak for audibling out of the playcall.
Dak was changing Garrett's plays but running Linehan's.
Garrett said,
" I'll fix your little red wagon. buddy.
I am leaving Green in all game.".
See ya on the bus after the game, dude."
The rest was history.
