Demarco was calling out our plays from the sideline

How is that classless? It's expected and certainly not why we lost.

This really doesn't need an explanation... Sorry our former RB that bolted to a division rival was calling out our plays. Mind you the division rival that has been crying leading up to the game and pounding their chests after the game, and ruined our season when they injured Romo. You can connect the dots, I hate that team

The offense being good since JG has arrived has absolutely nothing to do with JG

Garrett's system + Romo = great offense

Garrett's system - Romo = cartoon coloring book

Funny how this is true for virtually every offensive coordinator. Look like a genius with a great qb.

Not so much without one.

I wish people looked at things with some perspective.

It is not classless for a former player on another team to tell his new team what plays we are running if he knows the play.

We're just trying to win a game here.


Also, with Romo, we could be a lot better in a better offensive system.


Yes, the overall stats are nice but maybe we move the chains a few more times throughout the season or get into score postions more if we run some plays to get guys open.


Seattle beat us at the end of the game because of pick plays. Those plays won't mean much in their overall season stats but they were critical for getting them a W.


IMO, Dallas is one of the worst situational teams in the league and just has way too many tendencies and is way too predictable in certain situations and we rely on Romo to bail us out.

Why was this Classless? What was he suppose to do, sit on the bench and be quiet when he felt he could help his "current" team? Maybe our coaching staff should have tweaked a few things.

I've answered this multiple times... Thanks you don't have to agree Happy Friday!

Said at the time...and will say it until the cows come home. RB was the most mismanaged position on the team last year. If you got the others involved, Murray gets at most 1400 yards and you could have had him at the price you wanted. Not only did you allow him to become unaffordable, I also think Murray wore down the last 6 games of the season/playoffs. You also would have gotten a better "look" at Randle. Just amateurish how it was handled last year.

I also thin the front office and coaching staff was NOT on the same page when it came to Murray. I don't think Jason had much use for Randle....and Jerry was dead set on not paying Murray and forcing Garrett to hand Randle the job this offseason. Micheal Irvin told ANYONE who would listen this offseason....that letting Murray go was a mistake. We have overpaid for players who have NEVER busted a grape for us (Roy Williams, Brandon Carr etc....) we have overpaid players who we THINK are going to be good Tyrone Crawford.....but we just let the NFL rushing champ....who basically ran for 2000 yards....walk right out the door. with an offer for a 1300 yard back.....which again....he would have been...had he NOT been worked like a rented mule!

Its really disappointments me to see that our FO still have not learned how to treat some of the best players. Yet they are willing to sign absolute junk like Roy Williams, Brandon Carr, etc.

I knew letting Murray was a big mistake and we would end up in this predicament. Im wondering if it never occurred to the front office that they were very close to becoming dominant again. That the offense is set with Murray running the ball and all they had to do was focus on defense. But no.....they had to tinker on what works and destroyed probably our best chance to make it to the superbowl while Romo is still here.

Don't care if he gave them the playbook, play by play! If we execute correctly, doesn't matter!

Maybe we can hire Demarco as a consultant to call out our plays next week also if we can have a 300 yard passer, 2 100yard WR'S, and a 100yard rusher!!! Thanks Demarco, you got our offense back on track!!

And our running game been horrible for most of the year.

It's been pretty good since they started DMC in the second Giants game.

That was the big mistake right there.

Should've started him from Day 1.

The Eagles saved their season this past Sunday with a win over the Dallas Cowboys, and running back DeMarco Murray might have helped them in more ways than one.

While he finished with eight carries for 83 yards and a touchdown during the game, Murray also seemed to help out the defense.

As you can see in the video above, via NFL.com, Murray is calling out the Cowboys' plays on offense before they run them, tipping off Eagles cornerback Nolan Carroll what route the receiver is running.

I'd have to imagine, that he was doing the same in our first meeting. Didn't help them much then. Difference here is, we had Romo for most of that game & none of this one.

Non-story IMO.

If it helped, it helped to a low degree. A poorly designed offense with average to poor QBing still was effective.

Agreed. Works both ways. You know he's going to give up our offense. Fine. Make him think we're running X then run Y. Gives you a bit of an edge.

Big play diff plays a huge role in wins and losses. They got a pick six in our predictable out which is on Garrett, Linehan, QB and receiver. We have too many neg plays to run that. Even Romo screws that route up at times.

Karma for what? The guy was a free agent, he's doesn't owe his life to the Dallas Cowboys because we drafted him.

He owes everything to the dallas cowboys. He needs to live and breathe Cowboys. If he plays for the Eagles that's fine but never betray Jerry
