Game Day ***Cowboys vs Panthers post game thread***

[Junglist]

how was the game bro? so now even panthers fans are taking over our stadium. we are in the dark ages for this franchise.

Not too many, really. However, they're not used to winning. Even more concerning is the fact I couldn't sell my tickets for face value.

Realization finally setting in.

Really sucks

Seriously bro, the short bus is leaving the stall. Please get on it.

Stupidest thing, by far, posted today.

He broke his clavical eight weeks ago. He clearly wasn't ready to come back. He was completely healthy for most of last season and lit the league on fire.

Posts like this make me question how I get benched and this absolute rubbish is allowed to pass. Ridiculous.

Thank you.

 

[texbumthelife]

Without detail, may I asked what for you benched?

I've probably already said too much.. haha

 

[khiladi]

Man, you're making this too easy.

Gruden took the Raiders to the AFC Championship with Callahan as his OC and OL coach. Then, when Gruden bailed for TB Callahan took over as HC.

And had Rich Gannon playing MVP football when he was the coach. A guy who was never known as playing average football became MVP..

It's official. Romo's done for the season.

 

[Junglist]

Garrett didn't let Murray walk, didn't injure Scandrick, T McClain, Claybourne, Romo, or Dez.
Garrett didn't let Callahan leave, nor did he sign the backup QBs, and not draft a WR or RB.

I'm definitely ready to move on to a different offense and play caller, but I don't think any GM fires Garrett after last season, thinking he underperformed with the cards he was dealt this season.

Excuses, excuses, excuses.

I'm not buying this for a second. You don't go 0-7 just because you lost a QB. Teams win with backup QBs every week.

Well that was short lived. 5 days ago it was "Let's get a top 5 pick and get a new QB. We're done." 4 days ago it was "Let's win this division and get another Super Bowl. Finish the fight." Today it's "Let's get a top 5 pick and get a new QB. We're done."

i see nothing wrong with that. We had a shot we blew it and lost Romo in the process again reminding us that the end is near and we need to do something to cover our butts.

He wasn't far off. Callahan was the OC and OL coach when Gruden took the Raiders to the AFC championship. He was also the mastermind behind those Jets teams that ran all over everybody. He's bombed as a head coach everywhere, but the guy might be the best offensive line coach ever. His ability to plug players into his zone blocking scheme is all the resume he needs. He isn't the sole reason this line isn't blocking as well, but his understanding of the zone scheme is sorely missed as neither Linehan OR Garrett ever had zone blocking before their current positions.

I know, but that wasn't the point of my post. He's right, though, about Callahan being a great OL coach. And I would rather have him as the OL coach than Pollack. I have a lot of respect for what he did here, as well as with the Jets.

I don't know about anyone else but I'm rooting for a loss these next 5 weeks. Worst thing that could happen is Cassell strings together a few wins in garbage time.

I'll be happy to lose 3 of 5, but even if the top pick was sitting there, I can't pull for Skins to defeat us.

 

[jblaze2004]

sad we will probably end up with a top 5 draft pick and really not a qb worth it in this years draft smh.

Rich Gannon wasn't a perennial Pro-Bowler or anything, but he was a pretty well respected and thought of QB in his day.

 

[tyke1doe]

Has never been elected a captain by his team-mates.

Is thought to be hated in the locker-room

But all he does is win, win no matter what ...

I'm not with you on that one. If getting swept by the Skins can benefit the future of our organization, I'm all for it.

Pollack was just a bad choice in my opinion. Not because he isn't a good coach, but because he just didn't fit. Many of us here questioned it. He was a shiny square peg they wanted to fit into a round hole.

How many sacks and/or hits had Romo taken prior to the one that re-fractured his collar bone? You may want to go back and look because the line was keeping him pretty clean. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Romo wasn't healed. Even if the bone itself was healed, there is no way the tissue around it was strong enough to support it in the event of another big hit.

I was only a paramedic, but every thing I learned about the human body all those years tells me he wasn't healthy. Therefore, pretty much everything you've said is moot. Particularly in light of Romo being one year removed from a historically good season.

The tissue surrounding the clavicle isn't structural. The bone was either healed or not, tissue had nothing to do with it really.

Lose the battle, win the war.

Can't win the war with our commanders though...

 

[jobberone]

I want my money back.

And a raise.

And a really big car that gets really lousy mileage.
