The Crossroads of our Season

[Wezsh0T]

I'm not completely sure this is a Cowboys player thing. The Saints coaching staff had a GREAT gameplan coming in and Drew Brees executed with perfection tonight. That pass in the flats has been open all season long. I'm not sure what Peyton designed to exploit it, but that's what we'll be seeing for the rest of the season.

If you watched that game, you would know that the Colts didnt get it handed to them on this level. Plus, they were on the road.

yes, they did. they allowed 250 yards on the ground in the first half!

I watched the entire game. It was a butt-whipping of epic proportions. They got steamrolled by Alvin Pearman and Maurice Drew. There's no way you can say that loss was less demoralizing than this one. You simply don't know.

That Colts team is used to winning. This team is not. This loss is the beginning of the end

I am still very much on the Romo band wagon. He finally had his first bad game after being the leading passer in the league for five games.

However, if you look back over the coarse of this season and you will see that our defense has only had one good game of any consequence and that was the Colts game.

This defense is average. Not a championship defense by any means. If DAllas gets it done in the playoffs Romo will have to be playing lights out...that is our only chance.

They're not used to winning in the playoffs. But are they giving up??

We need an over-reactor emoticon for this guy.

You really think this team can win the SB after tonight?

If your answer is yes, then you are just straight up lying.

Payton saw what Washington did all day against us! And the 'Skins did it all day against the Texans. Seriously, the way they moved the ball up and down the field reminded me of how the 'Skins did it against the Texans. But, NO has much better talent than the 'Skins on offense, and we were exposed. Zimmer never fixed this and has never fixed it. Their damn FB scored 3 TDs for crying out loud! This is not rocket science, except maybe for Zimmer.

This defense finally had the game that they looked to be on the edge of having all year. Yes, we have been statistically successful, but watching the way that D has played week in and week out, we all knew that they weren't a dominant unit.

We can't rush the passer. We can't defend deep passes. Today, no one ever covered recievers coming out of the Saints' backfield (THE MOTHER****ING BREAD AND BUTTER OF THAT ****ING OFFENSE). We can't man up and stop the run when we have to.

To put it lightly, this defense is full of pussies.

 

[chinch]

NO just might have sent us deep into the playoffs with this embarrasment.

we weren't getting #2 seed without winning every game and that is just inprobable. it's also irrelevant, look at the recent trends.

the onside kick was like the Lett FG "touch" vs MIA a decade ago in that it will motivate the team for the big finish.

By the way this crowd sounds, this game wasn't at home. We had to lose at some point this quarter of the season, and now we can just hope for a chance to meet them in the playoffs.

If your answer is yes, then you are just straight up lying.

How is it a lie to believe that something in the future "can" happen? Of course it can happen. We're going to be East Champs. There have been teams that haven't even won their division that won the Super Bowl... just last year in fact.

Do you even think about what you're saying when you type it?

Yeah, I'm gonna go ahead and hope that we DON'T meet them in the playoffs.

I have to see it. We've played one game this year that made me think we COULD be a serious contender, the Indy game. Then a game like this happens and it reminds me how foolish I was for gettign sucked into it.

 

[kTXe]

We're going to be East Champs.

I'm not counting that chicken yet.

Don't you get it? There is no "crossroads", no "turning point", no magical event that will launch us into greatness. This team is flatout overrated. Our defense, if you can call it that, is being exposed. Tony Romo has come back down to earth and frankly, I'm starting to question him as a long term franchise QB. Two weeks ina row in big games and he has played relatively poorly.

We will make the playoffs, just like we made the playoffs in 2003.

Hush the heck up its ppl like you who always wanna jump over the edge wen something goes wrong. Yes are defense played like garbage 2day and Romo and the offense just werent getting in a rhythem to do anything but calm it down with your overractions. You're just some Joe fan who got caught up and suckered into the media hype and now that we arent playing to the expections of what the media said you wanna throw in the towl. We got out coached and just need to regroup and play tough next week against the Falcolns. And I'm sorry you need to go somewhere about your Romo comment. How bout you come back down to earth and realize yes he's played well above our expections in his first few starts but did you really not expect him not to have some bad plays and bad games in his first year starting. Can we definitely say he's going to be the franchise QB no, but he's definitely showed that he has the potential to be the franchise QB lets just see how he bounces back next from this

You have to see it happen before you believe it "can" happen? Wow. Are you from Missouri?

 

[Rudy]

Dallas now has a new rivalry. The kneeling the ball before the 2 minute warning was not classy, that was insulting. The way Payton had Parcells called for the challenge flag-tossing was conniving. I hope we meet this team in the playoffs, in New Orleans at that.

 

[kTXe]

We did the exact same thing in the Tampa game, I believe.

 

[Wezsh0T]

I thought kneeling down was more respectful than running up the score.
