3rd and Goal from the 2 -- and your best play is Sam Hurd vs. Champ Bailey one-on-one?

Sam Hurd??

SAM HURD?!?!

TWICE IN A ROW??

REALLY?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!??!

This one is honestly mind boggling guys. The best play boy genius could dial up was putting Samuel fricking Hurd 1-on-1 with Champ Bailey and hoping to catch him on a little slant. I was so disgusted after seeing that.

Fine, Roy Williams was out of the game - WHERE was Miles Austin? WHERE was Patrick Crayton? WHERE was Martellus Bennett? WHERE was Jason Witten? WHERE was Marion Barber?

No excuse for such horrid playcalling. Going to that well twice in a row is either extreme arrogance or extreme idiocy - either way it cost us.

it rivals the back to back fade passes in pure stupidity.

jason witten was blocking...blocking on 3rd and 2 in a must score situation.

If you look at the replay Austin was wide open at the top of the screen on the 4th down play but Romo was dead set on going after Bailey.

As stated 100 times Witten being kept in to block is moronic.

1. You do NOT run a 4yd play for Crayton with no timeouts.
2. I would have like to see some type of fade to Roy or Bennett. They can easily work if thrown right and they actually hang on to it. Problem is, BOTH have to work and usually never does for us.

Wish we could have saved a timeout and at that spot, with an extra down to work with, maybe try a shotgun delay draw of some kind.

But running the same play twice in a row to the same receiver, who is our 4th guy is dumb as hell. But that's Garrett for you.

Hurd beat Bailey. He had inside leverage. The only way Champ could win was to interfere with the catch by wrapping around Hurd's waist and pulling himself against Sam to get any kind of play on the ball which looks a lot like this:

williams, barber and bennett were on the sideline.

Jason witten was helping block on next to flozell adams.

Hurd, crayton and austin are all we have after that.

Still moronic to go to our 4th WR vs arguably the best corner back in the NFL the last decade.

Pass interference isn't an excuse, it's a reason we couldn't complete the pass. The pass was good, the route was good, the positioning of the receiver was good. But what do I know, I'm not one of the "realists". :rolleyes:

And yet our 4th WR beat him. Beat him badly to the point that he had to interfere and hope the officials **** it all up and miss the call.

Inside leverage was won. Pretty obvious from the replay. Bury your head and scream it was all Garrett's fault, Romo's fault, Wade's fault until they hear you on the opposite side of the planet.

Wait until you see the replay. Miles Austin was wide open on both 3rd and 4th downs but Romo decided to throw at one of the best corners of all-time in Champ Bailey.:banghead:

Sam Hurd wasn't big enough to shield Bailey from the ball. It was stupid to even have him in the game. Stupid stupid stupid.
