Never under estimate total team play/devotion

If today wasn't a clear indicator of the above mentioned statement I don't know what is.

At 6-1 there was a lot of talk of just being able to run over everyone and have a game manager.

This thread is not specific to just Tony Romo playing or not. But what a difference.

Dez, Williams, Witten, Murray, the o-line and even Beasley look totally out of sync without their 2 teammates missing today.

Tony Romo and Ronald Leary.

We didn't have the leadership and clutch plays we've displayed originally to get to 6-1.

We didn't have that bruising LG pulling from the left to right side to impose our will.

Our defense was not bad, especially the 1st half but you could see the frustration on that side of the ball as they were on the field unfairly for most of the game due to having to gear down the offense.

When we had to rely on Weeden and open up the playbook it was not pretty and Linehan obviously knew it was not going to be.

ST's was terrible!

I'm taking nothing from Arizona, they stayed solid and played ultimately as a team. That's what's got them to their record and it's what got us to 6-1.

We should never question which 1 entity on this team is our driving force from this point on.

To me, it was our overall cohesiveness and then the passion from our playmakers to make and execute the plays when required. Murray is not replaceable, Romo is not replaceable, nobody on that online is replaceable. None of the starters at this point on this team are replaceable.

Durant and his passion for his team mate was missed today.

We need to get all of these brothers back together and let them do what they do together best. Play together from starters to role players and understand each and everyone of these guys have important irreplaceable roles.

Please chime in.

Here is the good news. From all indications this team is sitting pretty from a injury perspective considering the bye is just a week away.

The Cowboys haven't been this healthy this late in the season since 2009 or so.

Cross fingers it continues.

Coaching was terrible too

I in the beginning was wondering why Linehan was so conservative but after seeing Weeden look like he was still in Cleveland I totally understand why.

He looked good in the 4th quarter last week and then today was back to reality.

Hopefully by the time we head to NY, Romo, Mc, and Crawford are healed. We also get Brent back that week and Lawrence should see more snaps and Weeden less.

ST's was terrible!
dont think so. they made lanes for Harris finally, he helped field position. Bailey booted a 52 yarder straight down the middle that would be good for 62. made it look easy. we covered a very explosive returner Ted Ginn pretty well. he has made plenty highlight reel plays in his career.

the blocked fg was really bad. that operation looked weird like they got a huge jump on the snap or something but hey gg to them.
at least Bailey wasnt injured and Witten was able to catch Peterson WOW how did that happen lol.

It wasnt terrible though I dont think unless Im forgetting something
