We could have run a lot more if Romo had completed even ONE third-down pass before the fourth quarter.

On third and fourth downs, Romo was 0-for-7 with an interception in the first three quarters. You can't sustain offensive drives that way.

JJ was getting 10 yard runs as well...perhaps we wouldn't have had soo many 3rd downs? Perhaps?

I know JJ is the home run hitter and all but we just seem to be a tougher team with MB3 back there.

3 rushes in the second half. Pitiful.

We were down by 14 at the very least. Gee..maybe grinding it out with our RB's wasnt the best idea? Naw.. never.

Down by 14 and you have a guy that was running off a couple of 10 yard runs. It was obvious that JJ had their number early on and the Saints were playing the pass.

Down by 14 and you change your game? ok....

After the score was 14-7, Jones ripped off a 10 yard run and a five yard run.

But I'm not sure running him a third time would've helped.

I think we should've involved him more in the second half.

But hindsight is 20/20

We had a third-and-6 after runs of 0 and 4 yards by Julius.

We had a third-and-15 after a 5-yard run and a sack.

We had a third-and-6 after a 1-yard scramble and a 3-yard run.

We had a third-and-6 after a 2-yard run and an incomplete pass.

We had a third-and-8 after a run for a loss of 1 (by Barber) and a 3-yard pass.

After that, it was 42-17, and running was pointless.

So, what would you have done? Run on EVERY first and second down? That will fool them. Yes, Julius had several runs of 10-plus, but those don't put you in short-yardage situations, they give you a new first down.

Considering that more than 56 percent of all runs in the NFL gain 3 yards or less, you're going to be in third-down situations from time to time. And your quarterback has to be successful in those situations. Until tonight, Romo had been very successful on third downs. Tonight, he was pitiful.

We didn't change anything when we were down by 14. We obviously weren't going to run the ball when we got it with 37 seconds left in the first half. And when we came out in the third quarter still down by 14, Julius ran it on three of the first five plays -- for 3 yards, 3 yards and 2 yards.

heres a bigger question...


Was Play-Action really necessary late in the 3rd Quarter?

Adam...are you honestly going to say we stuck with the run as long as we could?

It was pretty blatant how poorly called this game was.


Ding ding fing we have a winner. The play calls were horrible it seemed like everytime they set up to pass they were throwing fly patterns hoping for PI's. What the hell did the Offensive coaches actually go to TO's party and just recovered by game time. I for one thought Romo played a decent game what can you ask of your QB if your defense couldn't stop a stopwatch.

Maybe they were trying to fool themselves that they were running the ball.

I agree the play calling was horrible, but Romo was horrible.
