Going down with the ship

[Jarv]

Hopefully the winning of the superbowl odds go way down now. Think I saw 10-1 last time I looked. They should sink to 20-1 by Friday. Buy them now while you can. We will not lose another game from Thanksgiving on.

Atlanta lost their leading rusher for a few games with broken ribs, and now it looks like Brees is done with bum shoulder, possibly rotator cuff surgery. Then the bye week so we are looking alright.....

I just heard about the Brees injury the Saints are now in the same boat we're in regarding injuries to superstar QBs. As for the Falcons all they're known for now is slinging it across the yard and Julio Jones scare me regardless of who is covering him and they also have have other weapons in White, Hankerson, ect so getting pressure on Matt Ryan will be big in this game and the Falcons also have a decent enough defense so this will be a good game.

We're 2-0 and missing some absolutely vital players. I've got Cowboys fans around me pushing women and children out of the way as they jump into the lifeboats for the safe waters "giving up on the season" harbor.

I've got no such plans.

I'll be here to watch the team sink or swim until the end of the season, whenever that may come.

It's going to be a battle, but Garrett is as steady a captain as you'll find for troubled waters, and every couple of weeks we get a new piece added back to the crew.

I'm confident the team has seen enough of Weeden now to know what he can and can't do, and put him in position to succeed. He made some nice throws yesterday and 7-7 in relief of one of the greatest QBs of all time is nothing to dismiss, even against the Charmin-soft coverage of one Byron Maxwell.

It's going to be ugly for sure, but if the team can fight through this and get Romo back with a chance to win the East late in the season, everything else could fall into place for a playoff run.

Let Weedon be a bus driver. Let him thow to Witten and T-Will in mid-field and leave the long-balll heroics to the Rodgers and Bradys of the NFL.
Now, that said, we need to upgrade the running game to have a credible chance.
On the other hand, we still are ahead of the Egirls and the giANTS in heads to heads and in talent. By the time the playoffs come we will half Romo and Dez back in the lineup. So we just need to buy some time for the second part of the season.
Way too early to jump ship mens.

Count me in as a guy who says Weeden is terrible. But then I look at our schedule and with how things are shaking out its not too bad. The Falcons is a winnable (I think we lose) game. The Giants and Eagles game is obviously winnable with Weeden. Saints and Bucs are very winnable games. The Dolphins, Patriots and Seahawks will be tough games to win. I could honestly see The Weeden Cowboys going 4-3 and I do not think you have to be wearing Blue and Silver colored glasses to see them going 4-3 over the next 7 games.

Falcons: Loss
Saints: Win
Patriots: Loss
Giants: WIn
Seahawks: Loss
Eagles: Win
Bucs: Win
Dolphins: Romo should be back

What if weedon does not lose or goes 6-1, do you still put romo Right back in? Or let weedon play it out?
I doubt he does that good , but if he did might just let it ride.
I have seen many times " if romo goes down, season is over" but I think it isnt, it could be, but I need to see weedon play a few games.
He looked good in philly.

Now is when the run game needs to start being what it was last year.
Run it 30 times a game.
Win the next 2 games, then can afford to lose to NE, or hey beat them too!

i know this may be homerish of me but i think we will be fine. we'll hopefully be at full health at week 10 and i think weeden can do what is asked of him until then. i think our division being bad is really going to help us out.

Well said indeed sir

Hardy comes back for the Pats game...unleash the kraken that day!

This season ends when the Cowboys win their 6th Super Bowl !!!!!

Hoping for the best but expecting the worst.
