How could I blame the defense when they kept dallas in the game all the way to the 4th quarter. These guys were man handled because they had no momentum due to the offenses inability to do anything. Not to mention they were on the field the whole game. I do agree our defense played weak but our offense didnt help them.

Uhh.. did we watch the same game?

This group allowed two drives of over 80 yards in the first quarter alone. Garcia wasnt pressured, he was allowed to run on command, and he basically made our defense look as second rate as it actually is.

It was 16-7 in the 4th quarter. The defense was on the field so long, and was so beat up yet they gave the offense chances to score touchdows while the eagles kicked field goals. I dont care if they got ran on, im not saying they're good im just saying they arent to blame.

They were on the field so long because they couldnt come up with anything resembling a stop.

Also didnt help that when our D finally made a stop than it was by midfield so we never had great field position

Exactly.

How many 1st downs did they have?

How mn ay 80+ yard drives did they have?

Why did we even give Bradie James an extension.

He cant cover and he cant stop the run.

What good is he?

If your on defense and you keep a team to a field goal and ur offense gets back and hands the other team the ball back, time after time. Your gonna tell me its mostly the defense's fault? thatz bull

The Eagles had 3 or 4 drives over 70 yards. The Defense gets 0 pressure on any QB's and you want to blame the Offense?, Romo has to take chances because he knows:bang2: the Defense can't stop anyone.

How many drives did our offense have? It was a joke even when the game was in reach. A WHOLE quarte to play, and they were down by 9. Tell me how this tell's the offense to hand over the ball carelessly

Remember eagles kicked three short FGs. It could have been a Saints-game-revisited had eagles had Brees/Bush.

Our defense did not make eagles punt until the end of third quarter.....

Welcome to the board. You aren't going to get much agreement to this post. You clearly were watching a different game today.

Personally, all of you must be blind. Yes, the defense played like crap, but the offense fared no better. We held them to 13 points in the first half and the offense could not score any more than 7 points? Both are equally to blame, but more blame should be shouldered by the coaching staff for not having any unit of this team ready to play.
