Can it never be the players' fault?

Why does it have to always be Parcells', Wade's, Garrett's, or Jerry's fault?

The players got out played, plain and simple. You can blame it on whoever but it starts first with the men on the field.

Absolutely.

I'd say it was Flozell's injury that affected us it meant we could not bench a hobbled Colombo.

Prior to that we moved the ball pretty well.

Flo got injured and we did not have a suitable backup. Most (all?) teams in the league don't have a suitable backup when you consider that the backup had to go against Jared Allen. I don't blame the players or the coaches .... that's just the way things go sometimes.

Because jerking knees is so much fun. Have you ever seen these guys happier? Look how active they are. They get to take shots at Cowboys fans and the team. It's a form of ecstasy.

It couldn't possibly be the fault of the TALENTboys.

The most talented team in the NFL by far. :lmao2:

It's everyones fault.

The Dallas Cowboys. Coaches and players.

Sensa should have been tracking the ball. Colombo should block better. Romo shouldn't throw picks. Newman should jam his man. Garrett shouldn't have MBIII running toss sweeps and calling draw plays right into the heart of a penetrating defense. Wade shouldn't choose to kick 48 yard FG's when he knows his guy can't make them.

It's never just one thing or one play.

The Vikings were better and they wanted it a lot more than the Cowboys.

It can be. Sometimes, some people just get irrational and blame everyone, while others defend their favorite players who played poorly.

It's a cycle.

Undeniable. Same as the Giants in 2007.

The better team won. We were hot. The media was pimping.

Today we didn't come to take care of business and business took care of us.

The players make plays... However Garrett didn't make good adjustments today.

Romo was running for his life the entire game. He got sacked 6 times. The
O line let us down.

Sticky this post. You people take a game too seriously. Win or lose the players go home over paid athletes. It must be nice to get paid millions to play a game. While the masses suck up the Bread and Circuses also known today as Sports as a substitute to their masculinity.

That is why I blame Wade. We saw what this team can do when they play with motivation. Wade failed to have the team properly motivated yesterday. Had we played with the same intensity that we displayed in the previous 4 games then the outcome would have been much different. While I feel we would have won had we had the same intensity I guarantee we would not have been embarrassed like we were. I feel motivation is the head coaches job and Wade failed in that department yesterday as he did for most of the last 2 years. The one stretch where we actually played with motivation to end the season was a thing of beauty. Too bad that Wade could not sustain it!!!:banghead:

Game Plan - coaches responsibility. Why were we caught so off guard by the Vikes defesnive rush? Why were we not prepared for it?

If you think the Cowboys were coached up and x and o prepared for this game, then yes, put it on the players on the field. I just dont think they were.

Intensity would not have helped the OL after Flo went down.
