First, I thought we would win this game, so it’s a big let down.

Yet, every year in December, this team seems to lose it’s focus, mental edge after a bye week, its sharpness with a sense of urgency that really knows how to win big games and playoff games.

I did see some bright spots in the game with the play of roy williams and timing with romo. They are starting to click, so that can only get better.

Next, to me Romo played a pretty good game, no turnovers in interceptions or fumbles. Romo ate the ball when he had to. Sure he missed a few open wrs, but basically didn’t force the ball. Ate sacks when he had too.

Then, Jenkins is continuing to improve by leaps and bounds.

I know that this game is tough to swallow, knowing how most of us hate the giants.

I wished some of the players hated the giants the way we hate them, but I think some of them don’t. I know it’s a game, but like Jimmy Johnson said once, I hate to lose and so should you to the players.

The season isn’t over though, there is still a chance, but after the way the cowboys played today, doesn’t look good.

Tough teams are coming up with san diego, saints, Commanders and then the eagles.

I am kinda glad that the bye week is over with. Maybe this team doesn’t deserve any bye week or time off, because when they do they seem to lose focus some. Granted, I did say that the players needed the bye week to get healthy, and I stand by that. I do know that some players came in and supposedly spent some time in preparation or so they say.

The big issue keeps coming up, when the Cowboys have a chance to close the deal and win throughout, with urgency, heart, I saw the opposite. Offensive line missing people on key blocks, special teams missing people in a critical area or knowing where down and distance is on kickoff special teams play, running backs making mistakes, Folk missing field goals. .

Example, we had a chance to win our division and close out, but each year we don’t, why?

Example of a running back, choice was suppose to run a certain route, instead he decides to turn it up field. He isn’t a rookie anymore, he is suppose to run the route he is suppose to run. Choice is a 2 year vet now, should be no excuses.

I still have hope that we can win possibly 3 games, maybe have to take the wildcard route like the giants did in 2007, and maybe have to go back to new york and beat the giants up there this time with revenge in mind. But the offensive line must be committed to wanting to win and give it to the giants. While the defense must not have any friends on that field and give it to the Giants. They hate us and we should hate them!

I cried myself to sleep, and every time I let my heart loose focus and start believing in the Cowboys, that they finally are going to turn the corner, but I get fooled again into believing this team has urgency, focus, heart and desire to be a championship team. So, I may have been wrong about this team when I thought I told you they have the team to make the playoffs, not go all the way this year you know, but make the playoffs and win big games. I just don’t know what to tell you.

Maybe we are wrong to expect a head coach that has never won a playoff game to really know how to win in December and have the players focused and ready to go for these big games. Like the head coach could have brought in a kicker with folk seeming to loose some of his confidence, so you had a backup plan ready. But every year wade seems to try to hide our shortcomings and not address them till after we loose a game. Why?

Just don’t know what to tell you.
