We'll see as the season plays out which of us looks to be right and which wrong on this one. That NE team looks like a juggernaut in the making.

Our schedule is easy too, we've got 3 NFC East teams and 3 AFC South teams left to play. I'll be shocked if we don't win 14 games at least.

Our offense didn't even play well today and still put up 30 our o-line played about as bad as it has in a year.

Yeah, you look great. Though there's a good reason why your OL played poorly--we've got a tone of talent up front when it's healthy. Our best edge player (possibly) wasn't even in the game today.

But, overall, that's a deep, well-coached team you guys have. Congrats on a well-executed game that really wasn't in doubt after halftime.

You'll be right over time because NE doesn't have many road blocks in their path, but NE didn't look great today.

They are the best offense going right now yet our defense made them look average for almost two quarters. Had we had an offense today, I doubt they score 30 points today.

Even with our lousy offense, they scored below their season average today.

I keep saying it, two of their "drives" were a direct result of blatant pick plays and other terrible calls, it didn't seem like Garrett even raised an eyebrow. How do you just get bent over by Belicheck like that and not respond? He should have been in the face of any ref who dared come within spitting distance of the sideline, but that would have interfered with his clapping time I guess.

Just because they called it twice it doesn't make it OK to keep doing it. They need to call it everytime and JG needs to stay in their ears.

If he doesn't bench Weeden he needs to be fired immediately.

Even if he puts Cassel in and Cassel doesn't play great today, Garrett would have tried.

Instead, Garrett does the wrong thing by leaving Weeden play hoping to justify the decision to have Weeden as Romo's backup. But Weeden sucks.

And now, I predict we start Cassel and cut Weeden. Garrett will just sweep it under the rug about Weeden's poor play with political comments that help Garrett keep his job.

Reminds me of this dude I saw yesterday at the gym. He was doing 40lb dumbbell rows and struggling with it. He did 6 reps dropped the dumbbell and clapped his hands for like 30 seconds and kept going " wooooh woooooooooh". Smh really are u that clueless. First of all you are sucking second that wouldn't bad but sucking and not knowing it is even worse. Finall sucking but thinking you're good is the worse thing in the world.

This guy was totally misguided and evidently not in touch with reality. Kinda reminds me of Garrett. Clapping when u suck.

exactly, we have a giant tv screen hanging over the field showing replays, as soon as they showed that Edelman TD Garrett should have been in someone's face even if he had to be in the middle of the field. Show something, Jason, anything.

They only look like world beaters because they're allowed to run pick plays all day long to free up their nothing special receivers.

Both teams are allowed to do that. One team is creative, one isn't. One team has a 6x Super Bowl champion as the head coach, the other team has a guy with one playoff win and 1 winning season.

Jason Garrett is what he is. A mediocre football coach. For years we've heard excuses why he failed so epically in game managing situations. No other coach in the league could've kept his job because he's Jerry's guy. Then last year after Dallas had a great season everyone kissed his *** including myself. It's clear watching this season without Dez and Romo he isn't good.

The lack of in game adjustments, the lack of a damn spine to go for it knowing you've got an uphill battle and your scrub quarterback managed to finally get you in scoring position, the vanilla schemes, we don't do anything to make things easier on some of these receivers. See it throughout the league. Don't see here in Dallas.

We've seen average coaches have success because of all time great players. Tony Romo if it weren't for the obvious bias against him because he's a Cowboy would be a Hall of Fame quarterback. Dez Bryant is gonna right there with the likes of Randy Moss and Michael Irvin when his career is all said and done. These two guys are why the Cowboys have always been competitive. Even though those 8-8 teams weren't very good they were always in the thick of things because of the greatness of these two guys not Garrett.

He preaches fight that's great how about preaching a less basic offense. How about putting your players in better position to make plays. Even when Dez is in there he just allows him to get doubled and not try and move him around and soften some of that coverage he sees. Romo has bailed this guy out time and time again.

Remember the Green Bay game a few years ago? DeMarco was averaging 7 yards a carry against an atrocious Green Bay run defense and instead of trying to continue to pound away and help an all time bad defense with a very productive back he got pass happy even though it was obvious to anyone with a brain we should've been running the ball.

The last game we played against the Pats he got conservative and settled for 3 instead of going for the score when you're on the road against the best team in the league at that time. We all know about the Arizona debacle in that same year. Icing your own freaking kicker. Just unbelievable how many times this guy has cost us a football game.

Dallas showed last year they can win despite such a clown for a head coach because of the elite talent on the offensive side of the ball. Maybe he's smart enough to realize we aren't winning a damn thing with Brandon Weeden and starts Cassell and that gives us a spark and we can manage to win a few games and then Romo as usual will save Garrett's ***. It's just frustrating to see Garrett continue to hold this team back.

I believe you mean 6x SB appearing head coach, 4x* SB champion.

But I'm not sure exactly when pick plays became allowed.

I remember Witten getting called out for one being missed last week against NO, yet the Pats ran them all day long today and Phil Simms mentioned it just once but made no mention that it was illegal like Collinsworth implied last Sunday night.
