You can keep finding blame all you want but more of this is to do with the defense in the 1st place the lack of a physical run game made US1 dimensional and that first interception from what I can see after watching it three times is cooks got interfered with and it wasn't called we get used to the no calls but that's OK but don't blame Prescott for something that was pass interference not once he hit and ran through cooks and grabbed his shoulder and used that leverage to pull himself into the football that's how that defensive back intercepted that ball it was not a bad throw whether you think he looked him down or not...
The second interception from what I understand from listening to some of the feedback which is hard to tell who's right who's wrong but Prescott is now in a timing based offense just like Troy Aikman threw 144 interceptions in and sometimes you let the ball go thinking your receivers going to run a specific route into a specific area and when they don't that's the kind of pick six is that gonna happen I don't remember if it was CD lamb or whoever it was but he also dropped three passes and then you had the miscommunication on the pick six that was all Prescott the lamb so you can make excuses for the players on the fringe but you don't know where that was supposed to go and who was supposed to do what...
And again it's easy to sit back and blame the quarterback I get that but we had one-dimensional football and an offensive line well at times looked OK they were not doing their jobs long enough for us to break a maximum coverage zone waiting for dudes to get open...
Why can't we just stop the venting and the crazy who was to blame and it was one giant turn of a game for the entire team.... The team laid an egg the team didn't play well can you all understand team is not spelled quarterback.. And even if the offense somehow played better if they played like they did in Seattle we still probably lose this game we couldn't stop the run we couldn't stop the pass we couldn't stop the scoring I mean literally they scored it felt like almost every damn time they had the football and not three we're talking about 7 that defense looked like they were playing 11 on 7 that means they're offense look like they're dudes were so wide open if Prescott was on the Packers team we win this game He also wins the game...
The game plans and the circumstances to what the oppositions quarterback gets to play in in these playoff games are completely different than what Prescott Romo got to play with I mean I'm not making excuses I'm telling you what I'm seeing it looked like practice out there at times dirt we're running the ball into giant holes that weren't filled until they were eight yards up field and the same thing with a lot of the receiving there was at least 8 plays I saw dudes that were so open it looked like a scrimmage...
So if you wanna just say if they haven't played a little bit better we made the game closer but we still lose by 10 I guarantee that that defense never allows us to play catch up... Kind of similar to the NFC championship game the first year with Barry switzer yeah the players screwed up they got us down 21 nothing but they never could catch up they lost by 10 points...
It is what it is the team just flat out played bad from the top to the bottom coaches players I mean how we can blame the whoever sets up the locker room maybe they're responsible for all the sicknesses this year maybe they didn't clean up well I don't know it was a bad game the bad ending to the season as usual but everyone trying to give their opinion on what went wrong just use the word,
team failure
It is, and I have a thread I'm going to write tomorrow on the defence.
