This is the same old argument that has been going on since Bledsoe was signed. Better or worse, Bledsoe is our guy. He was the only choice Bill ever really considered, he was the overwhelming choice of the fan base on this board and now we are all stuck with him. Better or worse, we are all stuck with him.

Mike said it the day he was signed and I have to say that I see nothing to date that has proven him wrong. I agreed then and I agree now. Bledsoe will never win a championship here. His limitations are fatal. He will win 9 or 10 but he will ultimatly give up the ship in the tough situations. I like the guy personally but I believed it when he came here and I believe it now, he won't win a championship here.

Having said that, he's our QB. I will continue to support him because I have no choice. We deserve what we get for the decision we made.

I have yet to figure out how so many people are missing the part that has been highlighted.

Maybe I am the one that lives in bizaro world, but man it just makes so much sense.

Does anyone really want to go into next year with Bledsoe at the wheel? If the answer is yes, that is the very definition of insanity. You know doing the same thing over and over again yet expecting a different result.

If you answer no, then would you rather have a Romo with nearly a year under his belt and a general idea of wether we need to go QB shopping or not or a green as can be QB in terms of actual play.

The trouble is that you have certain people that think Bledsoe is going to do some kind of U-turn and turn into a 25yo Bledsoe, which quite frankly wasn't all that hot to begin with.

Based on Bledsoes history I would hardly call this an overreaction. Look at the man's history. If you could prove this was an aberration, then so be it.

If it was going to be done then it should have been done at the start of camp not after 4 games. You may not call it over reacting but making a big change like that after 4 games in my opinion is just that an over reaction.

Ouch a shot to the groin!

Sad but true ABQ.

We're stuck.

We made the wrong decision. Brad Johnon or Brian Griese would both have been better choices quite frankly.

Morning btw. ;)

Bledsoe did some good things in this game and yes made mistakes.

Talk about an understatement. Not to mention the fact that these are the same mistakes or in my opinion weaknesses of his being exploited that have been taking place since long before he arrived in Dallas. Bledsoe isnt the only one who got exposed, Watkins and Williams both got exposed a bit, but again I blame Zimmer he is an idiot. Watkins is better at roaming then Roy so why is Watkins locked up in man coverage and Roy roaming around instead of vice versa? Zimmer's schemes are too predictable in my opinion.

ill make an assumption that our offensive staff has gameplanned some means to get TO, witten and fasano more involved, but unless bledsoe is kept entirely clean, hes going to TG. thats his security blanket. weapons are being wasted.

Excellent observation.

Bledsoe being a vet should be smart enough to realize that he has safety valves at the TE and RB position. For him not to utilize those players in a more efficient manner is a major problem.

Who is the Cowboys QB coach ?

Romo time is getting close to chiming

Its way too early to make a change. Too early.

There is too much on the line still.

People are acting like the season is over or something because we lost to a good team on the road. We were in the game even though we played poorly.

You could see Philly starting off fast this year. This was a tough spot to be in yesterday and we still came within one play of forcing overtime.

The Player I am most dissapointed in is Flozell Adams, I believe adams more than anyone cost us this game.

My hats off to the eagles, Mcnabb is one of the five best players in this league and he shows that every week.

I believe in our team. I still am not ready to change bledsoe out for romo, I think he has to be given the next two home games, because I dont think we will see our defense struggle with the big play again like that this year.

We lost in Philly in the early 90s during two super bowl years, in fact we got whipped in 92 up there.

We just need to get the next two keep our head above water and then get two of the three against the cardinals, skins and panthers. If we do that and go to 6-3 we play 5 of the last 7 at home. Our defense is different at home.

Please remember while everyone is freaking out today that the eagles played the easy part of their schedule already, we get tampa, detroit and houston at home.

I cant believe how people overreact to one game...We know going in that eagles were going to make some big plays, we just made a mistake in the end to cost us.

I am not sure I agree with this. In fact I dont get the logic.

Brad johnson has thrived in west coast offenses because the ball comes out on three step drops and quick passes.


If he was being asked to make 7 step drops and go deep as much as blesoe he would be struggling too.

I cant believe how people are putting this all on bledsoe? Here is an idea, maybe if Owens worked a little harder to get open, or if Flozell adams was worth a darn the outcome would be different.

This game was much like the finish in oakland last year and I believe we ran a similar play but bledsoe on 4th down went to glenn, it was incomplete.

I will put the vid up of the oakland sequence and the eagles sequence yesterday. Last year flozell adams blew too blocks that cost us the game and yesterday witten and bledsoe blew that one play.....its too bad.

He also called out the Eddie George move as a disaster, IIRC.

Maybe there's something to this ... Winki guy.

Let's get him to stop making predictions.

Yeah ... that's the ticket.

Winki is to blame ... and those damn blue uniforms.

Dallas called a CB blitz that is why Watkins got matched up one on one. Ellis missed the sack on that play giving McNabb extra time to find the matchup

Lets see ---Flo was terrible --agreed ---except for every 10th play on every
2 sun --he palys that way --fortunatly for us he is big enough it takes the slower player to long to runaround his big butt
The eagles did come to play
We must have some talent to make that many mistakes and still be in the game

Why is it to early to make a change?? ---two tough teams with decent Defenses
and the result was the same ---In truth I believe we have a huge amount of talent on this team --but not enough support staff(yes Coaches) to get the job done---that includes Bledsoe ---By changing QB's we run the chance of
mistakes like interceptions until he matures --so what is different---since we lost to the eagles --that makes us part of the "easy scedule"

Yes. That was a costly whiff by Ellis on that play.

Sorry, still don't trust Romo. Same was said about DB after Jax game. We gave them the game and still had a chance. I don't wanna go thru the growing pais of a first yr QB--not this year.

What's the difference between that and a guaranteed 8-8 (9-7 at best) season?
