This 1000%. Weeden did his job, until he threw that stupid pick. That was the one thing he couldn't do. Game unraveled from there. Take a sack, hit a cheerleader in the back of the head, blow out your knee. Do anything other than give them a chance to get back in the game.

how did the game unravel at that point? After the pick the next series Weeden leads Cowboys back down the field for another TD.

We have 1 stud on the D-Line right now and you're not going to get pressure with just 1. We lost because defensively we weren't good enough to win, seeing Patmon give Julio a 5yd cushion pretty much sums up the defense today.

Wait , I thought we were very deep this year at DL? So deep in fact that we were gonna have to cut some guys that might start on other teams.

We are...

Gregory, Hardy, and Mincey all out.

McClain as well and I don't even count him really.

The reason the Cowboys lost they couldn't generate any offense in the second half with only 52 total yards and no points. They emptied their barrel in the first half with 28 points and had nothing left the final 2 quarters. They couldn't stop the run and the offense couldn't get the ball to the WR's. The Cowboys running game came out of the blocks fast but completely sputtered out. Randle had 91 rushing yards in the first half but -5 in the second half. The Cowboys were asking Weeden not to lose the game which makes it hard to win a game especially against a top 10 QB who has an elite receiver.
