Title kind of sums it up.
We go from whooping butt against the Giants even though the score said it was closer than it was....
To getting our butt completely whooped by the Broncos.
You could argue that we may or may not have won the special teams game but we were killed in all other phases of the game.
We are going to go full blame mode this week.
From Jerry Jones down to the strength trainers.
Why didn't Jerry go out and get this or that guy? Why did Jerry get this guy (Carroll comes to mind).
Why didn't JG prepare these guys better. Why didn't he go for it on 4th and 1 in the first quarter or the 4th quarter.
Why didn't Scott Linehan play calls better, maybe play get switzer involved and let him and Beasley get short passes and try to make something happen out of them.
Why are we still having players with hamstring issues.
Why is an future hall of famer still committing False starts aka Witten.
Why is Witten and Dez dropping balls they should catch.
Why is Dak missing on some throws.
Why is the Oline not able to block enough to get more than 8 rushing yards.
Why is zeke not able to get more than 8 rushing yards, why is he standing around with his hands on his hips instead of at least pretending to care about an INT.
Why is JG Still clapping on the sidelines...although for those that think this is important about clapping...I did see him do a hand brush from his forehead down in a look of disgust...so hey you have that shiny moment for the anti clapping crowd.
Why can our Defense get multiple sacks, pressures, an INT and recover a fumble and still let them gain so many yards and points.
How can we have so many DBs being injured from training camp to during games.
How can we miss so many tackles vs RBs
How can our DBs slide and fall so many times vs their WRs and or TEs
How can we be give up around a 120 yards more than we gained.
How long has it been since we lost the time of possession by such a big margin in the first half, we gained some later but by that time it was over.

This was like Murphy's law.
This was just a good old fashioned Butt Whooping.
Maybe we were due for it.
Maybe the team was buying it's own hype on the Oline and running game.
Maybe the Defense was feeling it's oats after dominating the Giants.
Maybe the altitude had something to do with it although that did not "look" like a factor.
Who knows...what we do know is we went from being the butt whooper to the butt whoopee.
Hopefully this will open the eye of the front office, the HC, the OC and DC, the players and the organization as a whole.
Hopefully this lights a fire under them.
There will be problems when you have a young and injured secondary. There will be problems when your LB corp is questionable with a guy that is not really 100% in Smith but still playing and a guy suspended. With a DE's being suspended...Tank is killing it...if one of those guys can come back and help that would great.
But for the life of me I did not see the Oline failing to produce a running game that bad yesterday nor helping Dak in the passing game. I am hoping that is an anomaly.
We will have to wait and see. I just know one thing...I don't want to see us getting stomped like that again any time soon.
