Romo should have been benched when leading 35-7

They had blitzed early and often already, they really weren't getting there. That's what sprung Forte on that long screen play.

But to fall back and play that crap defense? Should have just stayed in the basic D.

They were damned if they do, damned if they don't. Honestly, if I have a halfway decent QB and protection, I would tell the team the week before to be prepared to be passing about 40 times in the game. Very little reason to go balanced against the cowboys. They're so aggressive in trying to stop the run that play action often gets the LBers to bite anyway.

Can't get to the QB without the blitz, can't get to the QB with the blitz---just can't get to the QB.

Did you just compare Football where you play 16 games in a regular season and Basketball where you play 82 and often on back to back nights with travel and 4 in 5 a few times a year?

Yeah you shouldn't do that.

What about the Broncos who rest Peyton Manning when up 34-10 with a quarter to play?
