Have to stop with this it's everyone fault but Romo. said Romo was bad too last night.(which is true) im sick and tired of him taking a dive when a D-Linemen gets anywhere near him.i was shock to hear Fisher say this.he is one of the main Romo supporters.the main problem with this team is Jerry Jones. but make no mistake about this.this pitiful defense and Romo and this offense are part of the problem. what a mess.

Is this a joke? When your offense rarely sees the field and you force the run all night, your QB who still manages to score 3 TDs ISN'T to blame. This loss is completely on the defense.

Harris runs the ball out to midfield and the offense goes 3 and out, defense's fault.

Not going for it on 4th down of aforementioned drive, defense's fault.

Romo overthrowing Dez by a mile high, defense's fault.

Romo throwing it into the ground on 4th and 9, defense's fault.

I guess we can conclude this loss was indeed completely on the defense.

I'd absolutely disagree with him.

When your defense never forces a punt, there is nothing more that need be said.

No offense, special teams, quarterback, whatever, can overcome that.

It's the D's fault because you can't expect our offense to score every single possession or get into any kind of rhythm when they rarely get to see the field. The offense isn't always going to score unless they play against our own D.

Exactly. There is no debate here. When your D can't stop them one single time, there is no offense in the world that can compete.

BINGO! and don't forget the dive downs he does every time a D-Linemen gets near him. he's been doing that crap all year.

We have a 100 million dollar QB and I cant expect our offense to score when they start at the 50? Really?

I dont think there was a ton of thought behind this post, but I get it. Fans (including me) are pretty frustrated. However, even an alien from Mars who might have watched the game last night could tell you the main problem with the team is their defense (obvious). They would also tell you that Romo is pretty good: 104 yds, 11 completions, 3 TDs - just sayin'.

look the whole thing needs to be flushed. This core of players just don't know how to play big when they need to. This isn't a revelation as its been going on for long time now. Dallas just needs a cultural change. I would bring in new hc. Draft QB for future now. Get Ware to restructure his contract. Make dedicated move in draft for trench players on DL & OL.

Except, Romo did score. THREE TIMES.....Only Romo gets blamed for a loss when he throws for 3TDs and no turnovers when the team may have one of the worst D's in NFL history. Our offense scored 4TDs. They did their job.

its on both sides. if the def can't force a punt its a bad defense, so you need to as an offense at least try to keep THEIR bad defense on the field too. We made it easy for them by not stopping them, and by letting them stop us fairly easily.

The offense lacks urgency and good scheme.

We rely wayyyy too much on Romo buying time and making a play.

With that said the roll out to Witten was a great play and it's about time we see the playcall itself get the TD for us.

It's just a mess and we need to find a quality coach to fix it. It wouldn't hurt if we fired the GM that hires guys like Monte Kiffin.

With the players we have on Offense, this team should be dropping 35 to 40 points every game.

Denver's defense isn't good (they've given up 3 less points than us), but somehow they are 11-2.

Compare their skill players to ours on O, and explain to me why we only score 27 ppg and Denver scores 42 ppg.

Reason #1: System
Reason #2: QB

Wow... Really?

What was the "stat" on Dallas's Defense stopping the Bears Offense on 3rd down again?

I'll never get why we don't roll him out more and run quicker pass plays. We continue to run these long, drawn out plays that never seem to develop.

Precisely my point, thank you.
