I repeat, I don't think Jerry and company anticipated the defense would come togetehr this quickly. Because if we had, we would not have entered the season this raw and young on offense. Because as we watch how the rest of the NFL is playing out, this defense combined with an offense that could do something other than kick FGs, or one that could at least be an average running team, would put Dallas right in the hunt for a Super Bowl. Yes, I said Super Bowl.
First I will address Garrett. This is his FOURTH year as OC. And all you people defending where we rank or how many point we have scored over that period are not even worth arguing with if you cannot see that this STILL does not have a clue of what he wants to do in the redzone. Love him as the head coach, but he has taken on too much trying to handle both HC and OC. And his playcalling when we got the ball with about 4 mins left in the game was him obvisouly announcing that he was NOT going to lose this game on offense. He caved to outside pressure. His JOB (whether it was against Detroit OR New England) was to get first downs. And HE built this team to be a passing team, so he cannot decide with this personell that HE CHOSE, to pull what he pulled on that drive. And had he got ONE first down when got the ball, we win this game. So he decides to run the ball with a rookie and this terrible run blocking OL? Give Romo (your most experience offensive player) a chance to redeem himself from the Lions. Give Miles a chance to redeem himself from the drops he had on the prior drive. And you could tell Romo did not even want to speak to him on the sidelines as Tom Brady was adding to his legacy.
I keep reading people dicussing how young on offense. And we are (OC and the players). But this was a CHOICE. We did NOT have to go this route. And I am not suggesting we should have kept Davis, Gurode, Columbo, Holland etc...but it is the JOB of the front office and coaches to put players on the field that allow players in their prime (Romo, Miles, Witten etc...) to take us where we want to go. Too often Romo is not sure if our WRs are going to be where he thinks they should. I mean how much game experience do we have at WR outside of Miles? Whose bright idea was that? And there are not a lot of holes in the running game, but I see our INEXPERIENCED RBs miss holes time after time after time. We really don't have ANY players in the OL meeting room, WR meeting room, RB meeting rom to teach other players the "tricks of the trade" The veterans are Doug Free, Felix and Miles. Ponder that for a second. A 4th round pick, a RB whose last time as a full time starter was high school. And an undrafted free agent from the U (Monmouth U that is)
As I have said, HELP Romo and he can win. Did you see Brady's WRs drop the ball on the game winning drive? Did you see his OL get false starts and holding penalties? When Brady threw picks (oh my gosh he threw a pick)..did his players let the guys score, TWICE like we did? When Bradie forced the fumble, if Welker was not playing like a heads up veteran WR passionate about winnng the game, Newman would have scored. But instead he got maybe 5 yards. That is what I mean by helping your teamate out when a mistake was made. If Dez gets Revis out of bounds immediatley in week one, the Jets are not in position to kick the game winning FG. If we don't let Bobby Carpenter look like Jim Brown after Romo throws a pick, we probaby force them to kick a FG. If Miles does not drop 2 passes on our second to last series last night, we at least score a FG and we all would feel different now. Murray dropped a TD in the 4th quarter that eventually we kicked a FG on. THIS IS WHAT I MEAN BY HELPING ROMO. Brady gets help, Romo does not. Brady is the LEGEND, and Romo has to keep being told he cannot win the big games. It is just sickening right now! Continued dissapointing losses like this will eventually break guys mentally. And the core of this team (Ware, Newman, James, Witten, Romo, Miles) have seen a TON of them
