The real problem with Dallas is Romo

there are certain posters who will blame Romo no matter what. A QB that has no turnovers and throws 3 TD, 2 in the fourth quarter; gives the D 10 point leads TWICE in the 4th quarter should not be blamed for this loss.

Only in Dallas is a D that gives up 31 points, 618 yards offense and 329 yards to one WR is not to blame for a loss.

When you lose a game in which you have +4 turnover margin, that means your offense royally sucked. Period.
Or your defense made about 4 plays all game. That's really more of what happened today. The defense gave up 31 points. 30 points scored should win virtually every game, if you have a competent defense.

No matter how we lose those same people blame Romo. When they lose 51-48 and he throws one pick vs 5 TDs it's his fault. When he does just like you said and overcomes a poor offensive game with 2 4th Qtr Tds that give two 10 points leads it's his fault.

Those people just aren't smart

Yup. How come record setting defensive failures all year are Romo's fault? It's ok for them to get rolled for 24 4th Qtr points because they got 4 turnovers, but Romo throws 5 TDs with one INT and he sucks?

Stupid people (not you of course)

The real problem with the Cowboys is they're a team that continues to lack a killer instinct and they have a head coach who continues coaching not to lose games.

no it means you cannot handle the truth which is that the D lost this game

Ok let me get this straight.. When you lose a game in which you have a +4 turnover margin, that means the defense lost the game. Now does that make sense? We took the ball away from them 4 times and gave it to our offense. And they didnt capitalize. You cannot put it all on the defense.

Before I get started I'm a big Romo supporter and have liked Garrett for some things but not all.

While Romo is very good I think that he is a problem. If he gets mad at someone no longer does he throw their way. He will force things to his buddies but leave guys wide open and not throw it to them. When he is on he is great but why is it sometimes the offense doesn't wake up till it's too late? Why do we want to play it close all the time? Denver game we had to score points then we put up 48. Today Detroit scores to make it 3 points then we can't be stopped? I feel like the team would be better without Romo, he had won us many games don't get me wrong but things have to change and sometimes this team didn't respond to him. Dez gets in his face then boom we about TDs.

Also Garrett needs to go as well, I think he can be a good coach but not here.

Splitting up Witten and Romo could benefit this team. I see teams with less talent do better.

Discuss... I'm not saying these things because we lost it's a combination since Romo and Garrett have been here.

Please destroy your monitor, burn your keyboard, and never post again.

Not saying that offense was crisp today. They obviously were not. But when your defense gives up 600 + yards including 300+ to one reciever, your defense royally sucked.
See we can do this all night.
Actually
This loss is on Garrett and I've never been so blatant with my criticism, but the o and d both did enough for a gift wrapped w. Poor clock management gave Detroit life and they capitalized .

The clock management would have been alright except for the holding penalty. Without the hold we give them the ball with around 20 seconds on the clock. That should be able to hold up with as little as a 3 point lead.

They wouldn't have scores 30 points if not for the defense forcing turnovers. They scored 13 points off4 turnovers. That means the offense would've only scored 17 points. Is that good enough? I think not

Neither side of the ball played well. But to put this loss all on the defense is wrong. If you take away the points they scored off turnovers, they only scored 17 points
