Ok, on the reverse play that Crayton fumbled. Why doesn't Crayton just throw a pass out forward out of bounds?????? It would just be an incomplete pass instead of taking a 10 yard loss on the stupid fumbled reverse. Come on! it would a be a GREAT incompletion instead of 2nd and 20+.

Use your head, people!
It looked like he was thinking about throwing it.

Oh the complaining.

Not complaining, just mentioning what could be done better.

Should we all just post "Great game, everyone's awesome!" 400 times until next weeks game?

Crayton should have just thrown it out of bound. It would be a heady play to make up for his fumble.

Our O was very good today esp with 3rd down conversions which is great. Our running game needs a little more work. Roy should just live with Romo and get this timing thing down.

This was a nice game by the Cowboys. The offense made plays, the defense made plays, the special teams made plays, and no one got hurt. Our penalties seemed limited and some calls went our way. All-in-all a satisfying effort.

It is quite clear that Roy W. and Romo remain in different universes and I hope the players and coaching staff can solve this mystery as we go forward.

Are those the only two options? Complaining vs. saying "great game." I mean you can pick apart every little mistake the team made, but you can't do the same for what they did well?

Glad we won the game but W-T-F are we doing THROWING THE BALL while up 28 points late in the 4th quarter??? Just RUN THE BALL & eat up clock. That fumble by Romo never should have happened & that garbage time TD by the Seachickens never should have happened.

No, complaining is what my wife puts on an application next to "Profession."

Merely noting that the coaches did a very poor job managing the end of the game is an observation

Why do I need to post about everything they did well? Didn't you watch it?

Is a post "Great job by Romo not throwing INT for 3 straight games" really all that interesting to anyone, or does it provoke any sort of meaningful discussion?

You understand that complaining and "making an observation" are not mutually exclusive terms?

Yep I watched it. I saw the mistakes you're *****ing about too. Why do you need to post about things they do poorly?

Both can be done to provoke meaningful discussion if you know how to carry on a discussion.

The win was great but I would have felt that much better about it and this team if it weren't for the end of the game. Having said that, the main thing they were doing was risking injuries and they appear to have gotten away with it.

But that's fine. 3 games ago we were sitting at 2 and 2 and looking pretty darn mediocre. And now we've set ourselves up for sole possession for the division lead at the halfway point.

Eyes of the beholder I suppose. I'm making an observation that Garrett made some mistakes at the end of the game, because that is more interesting to me than "Yay team!!!!"

If you want to call that complaining, that's your issue. Overall I'm extremely happy with the team and coaching today, so continuing to try and paint me as a whiner or something is pointless.

I think we would agree on most of the things the team did well however. So how are we to have a sufficiently angry internet argument about things we agree about?
