How would I know what you meant? I don't read minds.

But, I do wonder if Jason likes Garrett? I wonder if Jones even likes Jerry? It's all so confusing.

PM me if you're curious whether or not Idgit likes 5Stars right now. :)

Probably the worst play calling and game management as I have ever seen. He's learned NOTHING.

Exactly..................I am just like Troy....................I have never seen a football team blow a game like that either...................a 9 yr old girl playing Madden for the first time could have won that game if somebody gave her a headset at halftime.

The NFL also regulates things like spying on other teams. That never happens either. If it can be done Jerry is doing it.
I'm sure he listens to the coaches' audio after the game. At least the interesting parts.

I'm not a head coach but often play one on Madden, but I can't fathom ever being as inept as Garrett when it comes to the basics of the game of clock management.

I think the magic 8 ball could have called a better game. It really is crazy how poorly Jason gets the flow of a game...he really always has struggles with it.

Good One

I just listened to Troy on WFAN in his weekly spot. Not sure if anything is new, but here is what he said as it pertains to Dallas.

In my life, I never before watched a team lose a game in that manner.

The whole situation is confounding.

My main question, which I havent been able to get answered, is how many of those plays came in as run plays and were changed by Tony.

All Dallas had to do was run the ball and punt and they win that game by multiple scores.

Coming into the season we thought the defense would be better than it is but we thought the offense would be what drove this team. And I dont think the offense has done its part. They totally mismanaged this Green Bay game.

I think this Commanders game is going to be very difficult for Dallas.

Just mentioned Romo and Matthew Stafford and said Jimmy Johnson used to tell us its not how many great plays you make, its how few bad plays you make.

First time I think I've ever heard Troy say some semi negative things about Romo...

Looking back at the schedule, it strikes me how fortunate this offense has been in terms of the defenses it has faced. They've only faced three defenses currently ranked in the top 10 in points allowed (Chiefs, Chargers, and Saints). The team lost all three games, scoring 16, 21, and 17 points (that doesn't factor out anything scored by the defense). Conversely, they've played eight games against defenses that rank between 20 and 32, facing the 28, 29, 31, and 32 ranked defenses in total points. It will be nine games after Sunday when they get to face the 32nd ranked D again.
