My brother and I would watch these games every weekend laughing at how the "Boys were destroyig everyone (except the Pats). Barber running with fire under his belt, Romo picking defenses apart, Witten running crazy without a helmet...

What a 180 degree turn they have taken. The MOJO has to come back. As far as personnel goes, this is essentially the same team! I know we have more injuries, but...

They need to get pumped up...maybe compare video from last year to this year...dunno. Start Felix (when he comes back) and let Barber finish. It worked with JJ and Barber.

Not me-I saw the same cracks last year as I am this year.(Even 90% of Zoners have said the same thing) Whether it was poor tackling or pass coverage or a lack of pass rush or the number of penalties or Romo/whoever not securing the ball well or whatever.

Only difference was that we were winning, PERIOD. Winning covers up and cures just about everything, especially in the game of football. Plus we caught tons of breaks when our opponents had horrible QBs, major distractions, were still getting their feet wet with new schemes, and for that matter, we shouldn't have beaten lowly Buffalo and Detroit.

Pt being that we're not getting any of those breaks this year, and its ugly rear-end is getting exposed big time.

its a taken a 180 degree turn for the worst? since when is 4-3, 1-7 (which would be a 180degree turn from last season up tell the pats) we better fix this probablem STAT cuz we could very well finish 11-5 but then again i guess that means 3-13

Well, let's say the entertainment value is almost 180...their just not fun to watch right now. I had a blast almost the entire season last year. I hope it reverts back...who knows.

That's exactly right. We just weren't as good as our record last year. We were very sloppy, had too many penalties and often didn't wake up untill the end half. How we kept winning is beyond me. Bad competition and luck I guess.
