Is that 18?

Can you list the 18 superstars that have been sidelined?

 

[Beast_from_East]

Dropped passes, missed field goals, safeties, and blown calls happen fairly regularly. Losing despite a 23 point second half lead -- not so much.

Good points..................you are busting up the Garrett fanboys tonight ScipioCowboy...............LOL

 

[ConstantReboot]

That Garrett has this team controlling their own destiny overcoming a defense that has started 18 different players on the DL? All of our LBs have missed time. We have been dinged on the back end too.

The Eagles have NO PLAYERS ON IR and have only lost 30 GAMES by injured starters.

Dallas has 7 PLAYERS ON IR. And God knows how many lost games but the DL alone has surpassed the Eagles total.

With guys on D that should be at Home Depot giving up yards and points at a record pace we have somehow gotten ourselves to 5-0 in the NFC East and a win and you are in on Sunday night.

Sorry but that is not bad coaching.

I for one would love to see what this team could do with a defensive minded draft and some luck for once on the injury front. Because with even a middle of the pack defense this team would not be playing Sunday for a spot in the playoffs, they'd be playing for the #1 seed.

Garrett has this team controlling their own destiny? You have to be kidding right? There is about 2-3 games that we have lost this year all because Garrett. If we had a more experience coach we would not be in a show down with the Eagles and in fact, we would be all alone in first place in the division.

Garrett is lucky he has Romo. Otherwise he is nothing more than a below average coach, which he is.

Jerry was halfway down to the lockerroom to fire his arse when Romo pulled off a miracle comeback.....................Jerry even said he thought the game was over and was pondering the "alternatives"..................LOL


Opie losses at home to Philly and blows a 3rd straight week 17 elimination game.......................He is done.

 

[50cent]

Wrong. Green Bay scored on their first 5 drives. If Dallas didn't go on two long scoring drives, GB would've had the lead early in the 4th Q.

No you're wrong. AGAIN. Dallas had a 3 and out (all on passes that contributed to the clock stopping) on their second 2nd half possession and a 2nd down int that led directly to their 5th possession that the defense had nothing to do with vs GB. I'm sure the defense would have enjoyed the extra bench time with a couple more runs to keep them fresh, had it not been for a short drive and an INT that forced them back on the field prematurely. It's not rocket science!

The mean of insanity is:

Keeping an 8-8 coach who blew the last game of each of his 3 years as coach which would have propelled this team into the playoffs. Jerry would be dumb to hire him again and expect better results.

No way Garrett can lose next week and keep his job...........................I am 100% confident of that after Jerry's admission about "alternatives".

This my friend is post of the year! He has indeed been lucky, as have many others associated with the Cowboys Front Office have over the last seven years. Take Romo off the current team and you have an unmitigated hazardous waste area... straight up!

It can be risky firing a coach, even if the decision seems obvious. I'm afraid of firing Chan Gailey and ending up with Dave Campo.

Also, there's a lot of biased judgement in this thread. I'm no Garrett lover but it's unfair to say we won 8 games in spite of him unless you can back it up with some facts. The OP made a reasonable argument for Garrett. It is a testament to Garrettt that the team is still finding ways to win despite the injuries.

 

[Hoofbite]

I realize Garrett sucks.

What do I win?

 

[visionary]

As I've said repeatedly, injuries are not an argument to keep Jason Garrett. They may be a mitigating circumstance in the presence of a legitimate argument, but they do not, in any way, speak to his quality as a coach. Regardless of the injury situation, after three years, we should have some evidence Garrett is a good coach. We don't. Instead, we have specious game management and a series of highly improbable losses that have kept the Cowboys out of the playoffs.

What's clear as day now is that Garrett should not have been hired in the first place. This was the wrong situation for him. If the Cowboys had been a team in complete rebuilding mode without a franchise quarterback, the Garrett hire might have made sense. He could've grown with them. Unfortunately, the Cowboys weren't that team. Instead, they were a team loaded at the skill positions and fielding the most prolific passer in franchise history in the prime of his career-- a career that's been squandered waiting for Garrett to "figure it out."

That's criminal.

The typical "if we lose it's because of the injuries " thread
Even the groupies are losing faith in Garrett

it is becoming apparent that most of the criticism geared toward Garrett is to protect the tony romo legacy.

Romo balled yesterday, he doesnt need anybody to save jack for him...................Garrett is still just as incompetent as always, but he has a shot to save his job by beating Philly.................lose at home to Philly and Garrett is done.

 

[VThokie7]

If Garrett didn't blow games in each of the past few seasons with game management mistakes and questionable play calling we wouldn't even be in this situation. We would've locked up the playoffs before week 17. And somehow that's cause to celebrate him? Good luck with that.

At some point you have to play consistently. Instead the only thing we are consistent at in the Garrett era is finding new unheard of ways of losing.

 

[JBS]

Fighting for the 1 seed???

Hahahahaa. What a joke this post is.

You are acting like we have a dominant offense and horrific defense.

Yes, the defense is horrific. The offense isn't anything close to dominant.

I can name about 25 other teams - who if you gave them significantly better defenses, would also be significantly better.

Romo did not ball yesterday. He wasn't very good until the very end
