On more than one occasion last night Collinsworth sounded absolutely incredulous with Jason Garrett.

On the draw play to Lance Dunbar, when Romo was clearly upset, Collinsworth said something about how Romo is basically begging Garrett to put the ball in his hands and he (Collinsworth) can't understand why they aren't doing that.

On an underneath crossing route to Miles Austin, Collinsworth sounded almost exasperated in yelling "Where has this route been all night?!"

My favorite, however, was when we finally scored with the no huddle. Collinsworth just clearly couldn't comprehend why we hadn't run that until that point in the game. It was hilarious hearing him try to figure out why we hadn't done that until so late in the 4th quarter.

It's weird, because the guy has no ties to the Cowboys, but it sounded an awful lot like he was speaking for all...well, MOST Cowboys fans last night with some of the stuff he was saying. From last night's game, it really sounds like he can't believe how badly Garrett is bungling this team. It's refreshing to hear an announcer, on national TV no less, actually holding his feet to the fire.
 
Because the play calling and game management logic just doesn't make sense?

No big news here really.
 
He's just been so bad the last few weeks that not even the friends of Garrett can defend him. Daryl Johnston was struggling to say something good about him when we were playing the Panthers.
 
What's just as bad is when Collingsworth said "Atlanta is brining in an extra Defensive Tackle on first down to stop the run." So what does Boy Idiot do....run the ball on first down with 3 defensive tackles on the field. and John Abraham off the field.
 
There was a play in I think the third quarter where they blitzed 7 and we picked it up. Only 3 receivers in routes.

it was a short enough third down that we should have been able to pick up the down except for one thing;

the two wide receivers were on go routes and witten on a skinny post. Not a single bleeding underneath.

Either a WR blew their hot route, romo blew an audible or garrett called another crap play.

Guess where my money is.
 
Stacking terribly designed plays on top of terribly designed plays.

Yes I couldn't believe there wasn't a hot route. Romo may have missed that one though.
