Yes I remember all of those games because we had a CHANCE to win them at least with Bledsoe.
Ah, what second guessing and distance will do for your perspective.
I remember posters here arguing why Parcells didn't turn the offense loose last year because we would lose by close margins.
And this year, posters are clamoring for Parcells to get more conservative by establishing and sticking with the running game. :laugh1:
I think what is interesting, though, is the game plan based on the quarterback.
With Bledsoe, Keyshawn and a better playing defense the Cowboys played in closer to the vest.
With Romo, TO and a worse playing defense, the Cowboys are airing it out more.
Hhhhmmm.
It seems as if our ability at QB and WR have made the difference in philosophy. That must mean that with Bledsoe behind center and Keyshawn at receiver, the Cowboys played more a conservative brand of football but with Romo and TO, it plays a looser brand of football.
Hey do you remember the Giants game when it was a 5 point deficit that turned into a 3 score one?
You mean the 12-7 ball game that could have been 14-12 before the half when Bledsoe inexplicably change the play and threw an interception at the goal line?
How about the Saints....42-17 ring a bell?
You mean the 42 points that the defense gave up that had nothing to do with Romo and resulted in Romo pressing to catch up?
You brought up the Philly game when we were down 7 points and Drew turned it over.....Romo never had a chance at home losing by 16.
But was that Romo's fault or the defense's?
(Also want to add Drew is 2-1 against Philly...best record since Aikman against them).
Seeing how our quarterbacks since Aikman were Hutchinson, Quincy Carter, Henson and a cast of forgetable characters, that's not saying much.
See my friend...the double edged sword slices both ways.
Yes, anyone can toss around figures without context and cry "double edged sword" but I'll do you one better.
Please show me where Romo pulls a last second "Bledsoe" by turning the ball over either at the end of the game or at half-time?
You're on the clock.
