***Cowboys vs Commanders post game thread***

[Hoofbite]

I laugh at those who criticize Garrett. If you can't see what he was doing today, you're simply blind.

Garrett can no longer stand all the accolades and back pats that he's received for that Thanksgiving game almost 20 years ago.

Today was his attempt at turning Romo into a legend and letting Romo get decades worth of notoriety. Clearly Garett gave the Commanders a 2Q head start so Romo could battle back from a bigger deficit than Garrett faced.

That's coaching.

Romo is ALSO part of the problem

 

[NeonNinja]

We rushed for 35 yards today we are a one dimensional offense that lacks the supporting cast to even make that one dimension work.

You're clueless.

He's a packer fan.

A good coach would do wonders for this team

A good coach isn't going to come to Dallas and be under Jerry Jones' thumb.

Sean Payton has options. The only way he'd come to Dallas is if he got to run the show, and that isn't going to happen.

I don't get it at all. They keep getting off the bad starts every game and that puts so much pressure on this defense.The defense isn't great but it would be nice for the defense to play with a 7-0 lead, 10-0, 13-0, 14-0 something to put pressure on the other teams offense and make them change their game plan a little bit.

It's pretty frustrating. Though, this week, I have a hard time finding much positive to say about our defense.

That RGIII was impressive, though. He's a fun player to watch.

 

[Dwight]

Is it me, or is Beasley way more productive than Austin?

I would seriously consider cutting Austin this offseason.

 

[Kangaroo]

I keep wondering why we can't play with the same urgency in the 1st half as in the 2nd half?

And we do continue to beat ourselves.

Let's see, in the red zone, more pre-snap penalties . . . .

But the real problem with the team is the OL. We can't expect any QB to have to throw 50+ times a game.

I did like what I saw from our young WRs however.

Win you go into the half down big you have to throw 50 times that was in the defends giving up 28 points in the first half. To much miscommunications. Mccray on the deep post car was electing help over the top. Then somme comes in later and blows a coverage late in the game

His receivers also owned our secondary, both before and after making catches.

 

[maxdallasfan]

This team has the talent. They are just missing the mental aspect of it, and that comes from the coach.

 

[burmafrd]

If Red Ball is such a genious as Hoss keeps claiming, then why is it that in most of our games the team sucks in the first half?

Game plan is out the window; team is scrambling to play catch up.


That REEKS of no preparation and no quality game plan

GUESS WHAT HOSS

That is on your golden boy.

 

[dmq]

Unfortunately, I don't even get upset when we lose anymore.

 

[Doomsay]

Word to the wise: Don't let this ruin Thanksgiving with your families. I promise it's not ruining Jerry's.

excellent point!

they have some talent, but i really wonder if they have alot of it as people suggest.

Romo needs to be extended, because without him itll be darker than the pre 05 cowboys.

Dez seems to be progressing. im loving what im seeing from him.

Ware and Witten are future HOFers and guys im so happy i got to watch on a weekly basis.

the running back situation has been disasterous for 10 years now. too many 5 game wonders, or dudes who cant stay healthy.

 

[burmafrd]

Romo is ALSO part of the problem

a small part compared to lousy OC and game plans and not having the team ready to play

and oh by the way no O line worth the name

 

[coogrfan]

The defense helped lose this game, but the offense was worse. Three lousy points against that secondary is inexcusable. Turnovers, penalties and mediocre play-calling led to this.

The defense allows 28 points in the 2nd qtr, let's the Skins drive the field for a game clinching fg in the final 8 minutes, but the O is mainly to blame?

Ok, chief.

i envy you (seriously). it still hurts to me...

 

[DTK]

Unfortunately, I don't even get upset when we lose anymore.

Sadly, I am the same way. Tells you how far we have fallen.

 

[Woods]

This team has the talent. They are just missing the mental aspect of it, and that comes from the coach.

We don't have the talent on the OL.

I think when healthy, we have talent at WR, RB, QB, and TE on offense.

But not on the OL.

As for defense, I think when healthy, we do have some good talent. It stinks we're playing without Lee, now likely without Carter, Rat is injured again, Church is out, etc.

 

[mldardy]

It's pretty frustrating. Though, this week, I have a hard time finding much positive to say about our defense.

That RGIII was impressive, though. He's a fun player to watch.

I agree about not having much positive from the defense but I'm sure the defense it thinking man it would be nice to go out on the field with a 7-0, 10-0 lead and see what we can do with it. Maybe that forces RG3 to make a mistake and start pressing a little bit when behind. When the game is scoreless or we have a 3-0 lead or the other team has a 7-0 that team can stick with it's game plan and don't have press into something they may not want to do. It's just great from a psyche standpoint.

 

[Beast_from_East]

i admire the fact that they dont quit. i really do.

but, putting yourself deep into holes is a result of coaching. goodbye, jason.

Agreed, the coaching has to change.


When the only thing you can say about the team on a weekly basis is that they dont quit, then its welcome to loserville.

When did we become the freaking Bills, where we are just happy to not get blown out?
