Much wailing and gnashing of teeth here, and it's getting rather silly. The Cowboys had a bad game. It happens. The season isn't over. The Cowboys aren't just going to roll over and die now. Here are some other bad games that happened this year to other good teams:

Seattle 36, Green Bay 16
Tennessee 26, Kansas City 10
Carolina 24, Detroit 7
Detroit 19, Green Bay 7
Kansas City 41, New England 14
Denver 41, Arizona 20
New England 43, Cincinnati 17
Cleveland 31, Pittsburgh 10
Indianapolis 27, Cincinnati 0
Denver 42, San Francisco 17
New Orleans 44, Green Bay 23
Miami 37, San Diego 0
New England 43, Denver 21
St. Louis 22, Denver 7
Green Bay 53, Philadelphia 20
New England 42, Indianapolis 20
New England 34, Detroit 9
Seattle 19, Arizona 3
Seattle 19, San Francisco 3

I don't think any of those teams threw in the towel after a bad loss. The 1994 49ers got absolutely stomped by the Eagles at home before they later went to the Super Bowl. Bad games happen. It isn't the end of the road.

Hopefully the team will rebound in Chicago and be ready for the rematch in Philly, including the possibility that Chip may throw some new stuff at us...

Kelly does not throw a bunch of exotic things out there. He uses variations of the same concepts, most of them very simple. They just execute better.

Stop their run game, you can beat them.

Make their run game meaningless by jumping to a big lead, you can beat them.

Our problem with the game the other day is that we did not do either for a variety of reasons.

Fooled again? The Dallas Cowboys aren't trying to pull one over on us.
Their trying to win. However I do think JJones was the money man behind 9/11.

I'm pretty sure that the Boys will do a better job this time.
