Orton with 46 attempts

[Hoov]

Now we can eliminate Romo out of the equation of audibling out of called run plays.

Whether romo does that or not, we can now label Garrett as pass happy for sure.

 

[IAmLegend]

And the defense actually showed up today...

 

[T-RO]

Pass happy moron ****** all season long.

Passing was the only thing that kept us in the game. 3 yards per rush...and some you silly boys would have wanted more running?

 

[fifaguy]

and Murray with 17 carries, 6 in the second half I believe..

 

[SultanOfSix]

This loss is on Garrett. I can't believe how he quit running the ball again.

Nah. I'm sure you can believe it.

 

[Brooksey]

Too much passing. It's really difficult to control the game and line of scrimmage without pounding the rock. We're way to shotgun happy on first down. It cost us this game and two others. As bad as our defense played this year we should have been 11-5 in this division. Bad coaching, horrendous.

Great game by the defense today. Callahan's play calling and Garett's play book= major failure.

 

[loublue22]

orton had 358 yards passing.

untimely pick.

all in all I think he played better than what romo would have

he certainly did play well, I'm talking about situational playcalling

 

[Cowboyz88]

Witten with his weekly blunder. Murray with a fumble. Ware invisible. Austin's last play as a Cowboy flailing at a INT.

Orton's last INT was a killer, no doubt, but the "Stars" fail to show up…again.

Passing every play allowed Philly to pin their ears back and pressure Orton. We needed some balance and didn't get it from our coaching staff.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Nah. I'm sure you can believe it.

Yea you're right. When they got the ball back, I was waiting for the mistake. If they didn't make a mistake, I would have been shocked.

 

[btcutter]

Even the college coach Kelly knew to run the ball! There is absolutely no reason why Garrett should not fire today.

 

[Word Mofo]

don't forget two different 3rd and 2s. On the third one we ran it, and of course got a first down.

Fourth one we didn't. I'm not sure Orton did that poorly outside of that last throw. He was a little off, but not too bad

yes because they showed a stat everytime we ran x number of times compared to passig. we won, 3 yards a carry still keeps a defense honest, , the eagles knew we were passing every single play.

mix it open and create opportuties, we even passed on 4th and 1. that 3 yard average would have gotten it.

 

[Gameover]

46 attempts for a guy who hasn't played in two years. Gotta love our staff!!

3 yards a rush would have netted us two first downs (one of which gets us another 3 points in all likelihood) and a two point conversion

What pressure? The O-Line did great in pass protection. In the second half they weren't doing anything in the run game

 

[TheCoolFan]

Gimme Gary Kubiak. He'd still be the best hire Jerry has made since Parcells. I'm not a Romo fan but put him in that run-heavy Texans offense they had the past 2 years and that could be interesting

 

[wileedog]

I'd almost keep Kiffin over Garrett after this game.

 

[wileedog]

Witten with his weekly blunder. Murray with a fumble. Ware invisible. Austin's last play as a Cowboy flailing at a INT.

.

The passes to Witten and Austin were clearly a foot behind them. And Ware had his best game probably of the season. WTH are you talking about?

 

[JS22]

Is it normal for a backup to not get a single rep with the starters the entire season? That seems incredibly strange. Orton was behind on a handful of throws which is a timing issue.

I actually feel really bad for the guy. Played a hell of a game and got bit by the Cowboys curse at the end.
