Bradie James!!!!!!!!!!!

He is the epitome of what is wrong with this defense and team as a whole.

In no particular order.

Mike Jenkins -- I saw him get beat one or two times. He's gotta go.

Jay Ratliff -- What is wrong with this guy? His sack production has fallen this year. Waste of space.

Demarcus Ware -- He totally took the wind out of our sails Sunday with his "injury" - now we find out he may play Saturday? Fakers need to get cut.

Miles Austin -- if Miles is soooo good why did he tank it his first few years? Two words: "contract year" -- he'll disappear after getting paid.

You forgot Romo and Witten.

I'm giving them one more year to show something

I don't know, they both looks like busts to me. Should of gave Drew Henson and Tony Curtis more time.

I am surprised Romo and Witten was not on your list.



Why would they be? Witten has always produced, hasn't miss if at all any games and is reliable.

Romo is needed on this team. He is the best that they are going to have until they can get a higher draft pick and groom someone.

Sorry if the players on my list that I want gone offended. To each their own. I just think they can upgrade, and should.

How can you possibly disagree with what I said, then two things that prove you agree with me? You're actually disagreeing with yourself. Was it Cover 2? No, it was a combination coverage -- a Cover 2look to our left and a man-to-man to our right. Was Newman in Cover 2 position from the start? No, he was playing off, then moved up right before the snap.

You said they were " disguising ". They weren't. There's a difference between disguising and pre-snap look. Every single defense in the league on every play changes from a set position to a pre-snap position. Most of the times is to adjust to the formation that the offense is showing, such as the LB following the TE when he goes in motion ( for example ). That's not disguising.

Disguising is when they line up in a particular defensive look, man to man, for example, and then when the ball is snap, they change to another one, let's say zone. That's NOT what the Cowboys did on that play.

Sensabaugh's mistake was turning inside when Rivers still had the ball. He's supposed to hold his position and be able to break on both receivers. Once he turned toward the inside, it was an easy read for Rivers. And that would have been true whether Newman jammed Jackson or not.

Yes AND No.. Look at the film again.

Yes, he's supposed to be able to break on the BALL ( not both receivers, since Naanee ran a post while Jackson ran a go pattern, and about the only one who could be able to do that is a fictional character named Superman ) but only IF Newman jams Jackson at the line of scrimage. If Newman had done so, Rivers would probably not gone to him ( and if he had, it would have probably been an incomplete, perhaps an int ) because he wouldn't have been at the spot he was when he caught the ball. By jamming him, Newman would have slow down Jackson's progress, disrupting his timing.

Both Newman and Sensabaugh were at fault on the play.

Senasabaugh did nothing wrong on that play.

That is funny and well timed, indeed.

Newman hasn't given up more than four or five completions in the past three games combined. But several of them were big plays, so now a lot of people seem to think he stinks. Those people just don't have any perspective whatsoever.


Indeed, AdamJT13, indeed.

Go get'em.

So Newman, I mean T-Toast, is a 4.3 pure cover corner???

:lmao2: :lmao2: :lmao2: :lmao2: :lmao2: :lmao2: :lmao2:

As for the 3rd and 12 pass, T-Toast didnt deny jack on that play. The reciever blew past T-Toast like he was a freaking statue and Rivers just laid the ball out in front of him. There was no tight window Rivers fit the ball into, most Div 3 Qbs could have thrown that pass.

I thought you were saying yesterday that "I cant defend Newman anymore", and now today Newman is back to being a super blue chipper 4.3 shutdown corner???

Whats up with the flip flop???

You are thinking of someone else. I never said anything like that.

I still think Newman is a great player.

Go ahead, jump on Newman. Its the same people who come out of the woodwork with glee when something bad happens to him but tend to disappear when he plays great or shuts down elite WRs or severely limits their production. Every CB gets beat some. You guys should watch Asante Samuel. He gets beat, too. Champ Bailey gets beat.

Did you see what Brandon Marshall did to the Colts? Newman shut him down the entire game until Marshall grabbed him and slung him backwards, no call.

That was a great throw in tight space. It was stuck in there near the sidelines.

Newman gets a pick and gives you the ball back on the SD 30 after the offense chokes away a sure 7 points. He gives you a second lease on your football life.

What did they do?

3 and out.

Missed FG.

I guess that INT was "luck" like someone else stated.

If Dallas' offense takes care of their business, the Cowboys win the game.

Holding SD to 20 was their lowest point total of the year.

If Felix Jones gets the ball 20 times in that game, we are not talking about this play.

Dallas would have been playing with the lead.

Didn't read every post, but two comments:

1. People do blame Newman on those zone plays where he's simply the closest man. But I credit Norv more than I blame our guys. On that 3rd and 12 conversion, I think that's just incredible pinpoint accuracy from both the QB and the WR. Not only does the WR run to the exact seam of the zone, but Rivers throws it high to his very tall WR exactly at the boundary even that far down the field. I've seen some bits of SD games this year and they do that to almost every team, and it's almost impossible to defend. You just have to credit Norv's offense on that.

2. RandyWhite mentions that that was a bad defensive scheme to be running when there's a slot WR there to put the SS in a bind... This might well be a place where an experienced guy like Ken Hamlin would've changed the coverage. I'm an Alan Ball fan, but this is one reason I want Hamlin back there to QB things.

I blame Wade. He's called those same types of coverages for a long time, and it almost never works. Our safeties dont have the range or ball skills to make those plays, they are almost always late to get over and even if they do get there, they rarely play the ball correctly.

Do you still believe he is the second best Cowboy corner of all time?

Hmm to answer the OPs question...hard to answer because i am not sure we have better replacements. I’d have to pick Cory Procter.
