Forget about getting anything in a trade for Oglesby or Ball. I wouldn't give up a warm 6 pack for either.
I would have to agree. Neither one helped themselves or the team tonight...

Denver kicks it, after a freak blocked punt return -

Kick in the endzone, Stanback downs it in the end zone.

Bartel In

Bartel pitch Choice bottled up, barely back to the lOS, possible loss.

Something the Marine Corps lives by....."Train like you fight!" Your take is "ludicrous" to me. Go have a beer with Spagnola and discuss how great we are.

The Military does not use live ammo in "war games" or training against each other.

You've never heard of practice like you play.

And even if starters take it lightly and slack off, why did the Broncos starters hand the Dallas starters their ***?

Yes I have. But if it's that simple, why haven't we kept our starters in? Why haven't we done some exotic blitz schemes? Why are we playing vanilla offense and defense?

It's not as simple as practice like you play. Does anybody ever watch the Colts? Do you remember when they went 1-3 in the preseason and won the Superbowl? There is very little correlation between preseason play and how far a team goes in the season, period.

I realize it's a lost cause. You (collectively, those that take offense to the use of chicken little) are destined to have a miserable season as you panic at the first sign of trouble. Have a good season...I'm saving posts for later.

Incomplete on that last play.

Bartel - back trying to run, dropped for a sack. With no Austin in, our offense has come to a hault. Penalty on offense, declined 4th down.

More populist nonsense.

You're right.


Punt dropped after a 3 yard gain on the 32.

To your point. The radio broadcast said that they were running 8 man fronts and man on man, and we did no adjusting to it. If it were regular season, we would've killed them.

thats true, but Romo missed Owens and Hurd on long throws when both were open...Owens was wide open, Hurd has his guy beat by a step or two
