Rack;2357046 said:My point was eventhough we had less talent then, at least you knew they'd give effort.
We might have the most talented players in the NFL right now, but they don't play anywhere near their potential.
And Nors - as usual - didn't get it.
And why on earth isn't he on your ignore list?

RainMan;2357246 said:I think we feel sicker because we actually had expectations for this bunch. You get so numb to losing when you're bad that they definitely don't hurt like they do now.
Unfortunately, I'm starting to get numb to these losses, as well, in a sense. While they eat me up much more later on the day, during the actual game, I'm getting to the point where I expect the team to lose.
You can tell when this team just doesn't have it, as has been the case for the last month. And once I can see that, my hopes dwindle greatly. Down 14-7 today, you just knew it was over with this team. When they blew that 4th-down conversion, you just knew the field goal would be no good.
The worst part? My sentiments only seem to mirror those of the actual players.

But his teams played hard and with heart. Not sure if it was him, Darren Woodson's leadership or what.
The fact that any of us compare Philips to Campo is a bad sign.
Where did we lose our QB for the season?Boysboy;2356913 said:This feels like '86 all over again-we were hyped as Super Bowl contenders throughout the offseason, we hired a stud offensive minded coach from SF(Paul Hackett) to be our OC, we got off to a fast 6-2 start(including a thumping of the Skins at home)...then all of a sudden Danny White AND Gary Hogeboom got hurt for the year at The Meadowlands, leaving us with Peluer(sp) for the remainder of the season. We DID have a chance to win that game only for boneheaded penalties to lose it for us.
It was ALL downhill since...our lone win in the 2nd half was against the lowly Chargers, while the straw that broke the camel's back was getting crushed by the Skins AT halftime at RFK, and then Landry slowly but surely lost control of the team.

This is not like 86.
Today convinced me that Romo may be the MVP in this league.Boysboy;2357683 said:Nonetheless, Landry lost control of that team in the 2nd half. Sure, we were down to our 3rd string QB b/c both White and Hogeboom went down for the year in the 2nd Giants game, but nonetheless, Peluer(sp) taking snaps under center wasn't the only problem. I remember the 2nd Skins game where it was 34-0 at the half.
But hey, the season isn't even 1/2 way over, so there's still alot of hope.

I left Detroit for this?

Boysboy;2357694 said:I will say this about Romo-THE ENTIRE team plays inspired football with him in the game. I'm not talking only the offense, but the defense as well.
I'm not trying to say our D looks like the '85 Bears when he's under center. As a matter of fact, they're a far cry, period, from them. But at least when Romo's in there, our D does a decent job at making plays and keeping themselves in check.
Today with BJ under center...they just looked, well, very uninspired throughout.
