5 Good Takeaways From The Game

[burmafrd]

1) Bailey no longer has to sweat his streak. He can relax now.
2) no chance we will be over confident next week after this loss and the Giants coming within a hair of beating the Pack.
3) Giants MIGHT be overconfident
4) Romo played pretty well- no sign of a December slump yet.
5) Felix looked better

ok that is all I have

good post. lets get them Giants

 

[Frozen700]

We must get rid or every Corner not Named Jenkins or Scandrick....mainly Jenkins

Until then, we will get abused.

Nothing is good about this game or the last 2...other than Romo is great...get him a healthy supporting cast, and better corners....and 2 new LB's other than Ware and Lee

and we have a team...2 many holes

Romo played well despite that sorry offensive line...

 

[CATCH17]

Im just going to forget this game even happened unless we lose next week.


Next weeks game is so huge. Win that one and we'll shove this one under the carpet.

Romo played well despite that sorry offensive line...

Giants will not exactly be overconfident in the funk of a four game losing streak. They know what is at stake next weekend and they will give the boys all they can handle. They can still win this division. Dallas turned down the cupcake today and now they are going to get a salty dog that knows how to beat them in their own place. All I can say is protect Romo next week or else!

We get Miles back.

If # 28 is fed the rock today, Romo probably is going to get some help out there today. Jones averaged 6.0 YPC (6-36). The Cardinals never had to stop him today, because Dallas' coaches did that. Jones torched them for 69 yards on that kickoff return when he got loose, too.

42 passes... Nothing but spread, shot-gun passes against constant Cardinals blitzes and not 1 single screen run for Jones. The Cardinals win the game, in space, on a short pass....

Jones gets 1 carry (an 11 yard run on 3rd and 1) in the second half and almost breaks it and never sees another carry during the second half. Murray got 5 or 6 in the second half and averaged 3.2 YPC for the game.

Felix Jones had Leonard Davis and Mark Colombo on the right side of his offensive line last year (which was horrendous) and had a very good game against Arizona last year 16-77 (4.8).

However, no one seems to care...

1) Romo played well and was CLUTCH once again in the final moments. Not that any of the national media will say that, but he was!

2) I thought the defense played better mainly because Jenkins was back. Still a lot to be desired though.

3) Great job by the punting unit.

4) I'm hoping that all these close games are learning lessons for our players and our coaching staff and that these experiences will pay off later on. HOPING!!

This. Again in what should have been the final drive, he was clutch as it gets. He'll still get blamed for this though.

Romo played well despite that sorry offensive line...

Romo did a good job under constant duress, and he didn't turn the football over, which was impressive. However, some of those sacks were coverage sacks. Dallas' WRs couldn't get open consistently, and the Dallas coaches didn't want to take advantage of a hot Felix Jones on the ground.

Peteson looked good today, and I thought Dez Bryant played well.

This team really missed Miles Austin today, too.

The Giants and just about everyone else in the Wild Card hunt also lost today?

Romo was on the run constantly; and usually very quickly after the snap. That is not coverage problems there.

You go back and watch it again, burmafrd.

The Cardinals had more than one coverage sack in that game. When you line up and throw it 42 times, on the road, against constant blitzing, you are going to get pressured.

Well, you can't question the play calling or scheme, because you don't have access to the All 22 film, remember?

Seriously, though, 42 passes is too much. And once again Garrett went into freakout mode and went almost exclusively shotgun. Should have used screen passes to make Arizona pay for selling out on blitzes up the middle all game.

Playoff run starts next Sunday night. Every game here on out is a playoff.

I watched it LIVE. Don't need to watch that mess again. He was under CONSTANT pressure that started about the same time he got the ball in his hands. You don't want to admit that; fine.

There's never any good to take from a loss against an inferior team.
