The defense was terrible thread

[kycowboyfan]

While the defense spit the bit in the 2nd half, they were the reason it was a game in the 1st half. (Not to mention despite being bad in the 2nd half, they DID give the offense a chance to go win it!) This one was on Romo (and Murray's untimely turnover...)

On Romo? Did he fumble or was that Murray. Did he drop that pass in the endzone from Weeden, Let's be real here, It was a Team Loss.

Defense was in position to make stops tonight, but tackling was the worst it's been all season.

 

[dallasdave]

This game can be summed up in one word "stupid".

 

[Oh_Canada]

Ahhhh the defense was horrible??

 

[JackOfNoTrades]

The defense was terrible.

Romo looked just add bad as everyone else. Weird game we will be fine.

When your defense allows 17 points and you rush for 166yds you have to really screw up to lose a game.

Turnovers. Nuff said

Hopefully this game doesn't snowball into a 2nd half defensive meltdown. But this game clearly shows how lack of pressure/sacks will allow mediocre QBs to pick you apart. Colt McCoy for goodness sakes. I haven't checked but I'm pretty sure this was his best statistical game of his career.

McCoy had a nice game for a guy who isn't ever supposed to be in a game. Humble kid to.

How many people got hurt tonight?

Whether the defense was good or bad, the offense was the last with the ball. What did the do exactly?

 

[Frozen700]

missed tackles missed tackles all over the field.

Sure we did......... still, golden boy murray put the ball on the ground, randle ball on the ground, offense can't figure out the blitz, murray missing assignments.

The blue print is out. Now it's up to us to figure it out.

We have Dez, not once did we fire it up to him deep during the blitz. Force a PI or let Dez make a play. Instead we go to williams. Yeah he made a few nice plays, but please stop throwing deep balls, under pressure to this guy. He lacks the ability to track, and go up for the ball, if under thrown.

Yep team loss. No need for a bunch of finger pointing from the Romo Haters. Plenty of blame to go around

They lost the game. 4 downs to get a 1st and they get 8 yards on 1st , so they pass 3 times.

 

[romothesavior]

No, the offense (particularly the coaching) was AWFUL.

 

[Stinger_Splash]

The defense was terrible. 5 year olds tackle better than them.

 

[rwalters31]

Keep it within the guidelines

Not possible! lost to the worst team in the division and looked like their birth! offense could not adjust to their blist! Good thing we did not plat Philly or Arizona this weekend or they would have crushed us!

Romo showed some incredible toughness to get back in there but it just wasn't our night in any part of the game

 

[Cowboyz88]

Why do we need this thread? To place the blame on our D, when it was clear as day our Offense got schooled and taken to the woodshed, by Washington? We got dog walked, and out classed.

Hopefully this pulls this wakes them up from this fantasy ride.

Colt Freaking McCoy 25 of 30 for 299

Offense was terrible, but the D doesn't get a pass.

 

[JJHLH1]

The missed tackles cost us, but Murray's fumble was huge. He made a great play and should have known when to go down, especially with his history of fumbling this year.
