The Eagles just kicked the Cowboys butt thread

[scottsp]

Dallas was thoroughly dominated, no doubt. I'm just thankful that was Mark Sanchez under center.

This is one of those games where you just completely forget that it happened, you burn the tapes of the game, shred the news paper clippings, and delete every post associated with the game. It never happened.

Kinda like after the Saints game last year, or the thumping we took in the playoffs from Min.

I thought we looked tired also. A step slow all night. I think we could not have faced a worse opponent than the eagles fast paced offense today. We get another shot at them. We will see if the results are any diff

Yep - I'm not that upset. Games like this happen and they are a good team.

Ttell you what right now we will win in Philly and I don't usually say stuff like that. We have to win in Chicago and with the embarrassment of getting beat down by a division rival wearing on the team for ten days we'll be ready and we will win.

Book it!

I think the offense can and will do much better next next game against the Eagles.

The defense, unfortunately, I think has been playing over their heads most of the season and have come back to earth. There really isn't a single difference maker on the Cowboys defense who can make a splash play to turn the tide when things are going bad.

My problem is you still see Romo under duress and all of our routes are 30 yards down field.

We do nothing special to get someone open and like always it will come back to bite us.

We've got playmakers everywhere but unfortunately our scheme handicaps us.

We noticed.

Completely pathetic.. Way to not get up for a division game guys.

I admire your optimism, but am not sure that the embarrassment thing will get us over the hump in Philly. They might just be better than us....

BTW this was not just a loss, but a really bad loss. The kind will probably linger. Every weakness was exposed, Romo looked liked he is 85 years old. The team that just mopped the floor with them, got beat even worse by the Packers. In other words this wasnt close to a top team that just humiliated you them at home.

and, again, no routes to the middle of the field, no seam routes, no crossing routes. Every route was deep or outside the numbers, even the ones to Beasely..... Last week Dez torched the Giants on crossing routes.....

 

[Avery]

We're a road team, remember?

We looked tired and like a team that has had no rest while Philly looked like they've been off for weeks.

Just have to try and steal it at their place in a few weeks. If we don't, pray the wildcard chips fall our way.

 

[Cowboyz88]

I just hate that the Eagles more or less said, "we're going to Dallas and kick their butts, because they aren't all that."

Chirped all week.

And Dallas laid down and let them — without any fight.

I just can't understand that weak mentality.

Don't forget about the coaching disparity...

Honestly I'd prefer a blowout loss (like this one) then say if we would've lost last week in a thriller to the Giants. That's much more emotionally draining, and also I think this game could be some medicine getting served up to our 'Boys. They've yet to be punched in the face, stomped on the floor, taken behind the wood shed and beaten down like they stole something. Previous to tonight they've been in every game with a chance to win it late, so I think it could be an eye opener to a young Cowboy team and could possibly be a positive impact for this team in the future.

Agree. I do the one thousand 1 etc count. Once I get to 3 and the balls not gone I know we are in trouble.

 

[MRV52]

It ain't over yet, you will see a different Dallas team when we play them in Philly. We just looked tired and sluggish all game, no excuses but the Eagles took it too us and were better prepared.

We run 1 bubble screen to Beasley and pick up 25 yards and that play disappears the rest of the game.

Denver makes s living off of that.

Legal pick plays as well.

The Cowboys just run our receivers down field and hope.

 

[mahoneybill]

Street and Williams didn't do Tony any favors. If the WR can't get the ball , then become a DB and don't let them fair catch an Int.

Those are as much on the receivers as they are on Tony.

Or it could be that a much better team whipped our arse

Hope you are right. We need to bounce back to get over 500 and for a chance to at least make the playoffs and win 1. Forget the Division, that's a long shot, minus our doing a complete turnaround, and philly imploding.
