I have a hard time remembering when Dallas fans were more blood-thirsty than they are right now. In fact, I can't think of a single person affiliated with this organization who hasn't been blamed by somebody for these last couple of losses.

But I think everyone just needs to take a deep breath.

I don't think this team is that bad. They gave away the Giants game with one of the worst defensive secondary performances that I have ever seen. Of course, they also turned the ball over 4 more times than the Giants. And they lost by a field goal. They shouldn't have lost at all, clearly. But they showed what a tough team they are.

I was always worried about the Broncos game. Dallas was going on the road to a tough place to play on a short week after MNF. The Broncos are a lot better than most people realized, and they were fired up to prove how real they are. And it took a spectacular play from Brandon Marshall and more offensive ineptitude to lose that game.

I just don't think this team is that bad. Now, I don't know exactly how good they are either just yet. But I think people are overreacting.

Your QB is one of the best in this league; I really believe that. I think he's been brilliant twice in four games, and I also believe that the two bad games werent as bad as some think. The Broncos had pressure all him all day long, and I haven't heard many people mention how Romo was sacked more in that game than he ever has been in his career. Give them some credit instead of just giving the QB all the blame! The Giants game was just kind of fluky, and no one held up their end of the bargain in that game...

The running game has looked very good. The O-line has been good until the Broncos destroyed them. The defense is getting better.

I just think this team needs to finish. The defense has to make big stops consistently, and the offense can't shoot so many of their toes that they can't stand...

But this is not an 0-4 team. They haven't been good enough to be 4-0 either. They are somewhere in the middle after four games, which is exactly what we see. But there is a lot of season left...

If a lot of "fans" want to stop watching the team, you have my permission. it might make talking football a little easier around here.

12 years without a playoff win... and counting.

I'm not really sure the defense has been playing all that bad

they did their job, IMO, against Denver

the offense has been consistently putting them in positions to have to become Doomsday II and well, there was only one Doomsday...

We are 26th in total defense, 29th against the pass.

Other than the Denver game, this D has been shredded all season.


The numbers dont lie....................it is what it is.

Man, if Romo goes back to playing like Jedi-Romo, can you imagine the shootout on the field?

We might as well get ready to set up some official defense sux threads in advance. If Romo's on his game and Brees plays like he did in his first two games, both defenses will have tire tracks on their backs.

No need for that, we already suck right now on defense. Other than the Denver game, this D has been diced and sliced all season.

26th in total defense

29th pass defense.

but to their credit the D has been improving since week 1 while the O seems to be getting worse
 
More of the "you're gonna play a few bad games in a 16 game season" garbage.

That is true, we were ranked 32nd in toal defense after 2 games and have improved to 26th after 4 games.

So I guess this is good news if you look at it that way, kinda like the doctor telling you that instead of amputating your whole leg they just amputated your foot instead.

Babe Laufenberg talks about how bad our WRs are running routes almost every game. He is in the booth with Brad Sham doing the radio broadcast so he has a pretty good view of the field and is watching it live whereas most fans only see a small portion of the play on TV.

I think Laufenberg knows what he is talking about since he was a former QB in the league and he has no reason to lie about it, so I tend to believe what he says is true. So if he says our WRs are poor route runners, then thats good enough for me.

Doesn't it surprise you that guys who've never played the game at the NFL level know more about the game than guys who do?

I do think Romo makes bad mistakes, but I still think he's a good quarterback. I blame Jason Garrett more because he should understand his quarterback, understand his receivers (even their poor route-running) and make adjustments in his game strategy.

I can't see how anyone can fault Romo for the Bailey pick. If Austin runs the right route, that's either a catch or an incompletion and we're kicking a huge 3 points, especially in that type of close game.

Third and 14? Yes, Tony should have located the blitzer, but why are we throwing the ball deep in your own territory in a game where we're leading by 10, in a hostile environment where one bad play can get the crowd back in the game?

Sorry, but that's coaching.

That was a good post.

I still see the deficiences in coaching even when outlining what went wrong. This team should be 4-0, if the coaches knew how to take command of the situation and the team.

I agree with this 100%. I don't believe that because we aren't 4-0 that it means this team cannot fix things.
 
I support Tony ROmo and am very happy to see Kieth Brookings' comments about working during the week resinating with the Offense.

The bad thing is that it makes you wonder where the real Leadership is on this Coaching Staff.

:bow:
I've been saying the same thing (on here & to my area 'Boys fans who are screaming doom-n-gloom) and I had to wonder if folks realize how close Dallas is to being undefeated. I know close doesn't count...but this team is a couple of bad bounces away from 4-0; even w/ some sloppy play at times. Some need to step away from the cliff and breathe easy...put the suicide watch on hold 'til at least Thanksgiving!!

Reporter: "You're sort of off to an under achieving start this year."

Tony: "Well, I don't go by what you guys go by. Obviously there are things I want to do better, and I think there are things that this team wants to do better, and I think we will going forward, but the only way to do that is to go out and take care of business today. It doesn't matter, we could sit here and talk about it, and I could tell you guys all this junk, but if we don't go out and do it on the football field today, and tomorrow, and the next day, we won't be able to do it on Sundays."

Reporter: "But there's no sense of being surprised or disappointed in your own play after 4 games?"

Tony: "Well, if you think it's going to be 16 games of perfect and that we're going to throw 3 touchdown passes every game and everything's going to happen, then you're kidding yourself you know. I don't think that's the case. I heard Jack Nicklaus say once, 'if I bogey the first 2 holes it sucks, but I got my quota out of the way. Now it's time to go and do what I do in the next 16 holes.' Part of that is the football mentality, you lose a game or two okay. Sometimes it happens at different times, but now it's time to improve, go forward and win. And that's what we're going to do."

HOS YOU HAVE TOO MUCH BLIND FAITH TO SEE WHAT IS GOING ON...I DONT AGREE WITH YOU...TONY ROMO HAS NOW REGRESSED TO TONY ONO AND IF HE DOESNT ADMIT THAT HE HAS REGRESSED THEN HE WILL NEVER DO THE THINGS AGAIN THAT GOT HIM TO WHERE HE WAS WHEN HE WAS AT THE TOP OF HIS GAME...

I will not read a word of this though it is directed to me. All caps screaming is a colossal waste of time and hard to read.
