First Here's a recap of our season. You have the Week, then rather we won or lost, the opponents record heading into the game, and our record heading into the game.

Game 1 - L - Opponent Record 0-0 - Record 0-0

Game 2 - W - Opponent record 0-1 - Record 0-1

Game 3 - Bye -

Game 4 - W - Opponent Record 0-3 - Record 1-1

game 5 - L - Opponent Record 3-1 - Record 2-1

Game 6 - W - Opponent Record 1-3 - Record 2-2

Game 7 - L - opponent Record 3-2 - Record 3-2

Game 8 - W - Opponent Record 4-3 - Record 3-3

Game 9 - L - Opponent Record 2-6 - Record 4-3

Game 10 - W - Opponent Record 1-9 - Record 4-4

Game 11 - W - Opponent Record 10-0 - Record 5-4

Game 12 - W - Opponent Record 3-7 - Record 6-4

Game 13 - W - Opponent Record 7-4 - Record 7-4

Game 14 - L - Opponent Record 8-4 - Record 8-4

Game 15 - W - Opponent Record 7-6 - Record 8-5

Game 16 - L - Opponent Record 8-6 - Record 9-5

Game 17 - L - Opponent Record 2-13 - Record 9-6

Now looking at this, with Bledsoe starting we had a 0-3 record against teams .500 or better (this included the Giants game since he started it, and the Jags, cause well hey they were 0-0. :D)

With Romo we were 4-2 against teams with winning records heading into the game.

The reason i used the records heading into the games is because teams like the jags, and Tenn we played so early, that there late season games doesn't change how they were playing at the beginning of the season. a Team could be down a player, starting a rookie (Tenn) and not get going till late.

The scores are not shown because it doesn't matter what the score is, 3-0, or 38-36, a loss is a loss. All that matters is whether we get a W, or a L.


All of this Romo has only 10 starts under his belt. Is BS to me. Why? because he won, he beat the bad teams, he beat the good teams. Did he always play good? no. What QB does? But he always had this team in the running to win (except 4th quarter of the Saints game). This guy has shown the ability to win in the NFL when the pressure is on.

continue on

Can i get one comment?

Sorry, you've been blackballed by the forum. A private PM was sent out earlier. I'm scab so I crossed the line.

Good research. It gives a different perspective of some of the factors going into a game, but there are alot more. Alot of people talk about the loss to Detroit but earlier in the day the players knew that Philly cinched the East. I've watched teams in the past under the same scenario and it always seems they are unable to get fired up. Just one example, but alot of people bring up this game but under the circumstances I expected them to lose.

There is just an ebb and flow of emotion with every team during the season. There is always one team regardless of the season record that gets hot at the end of the season while others seem to tail off.

I think it would have been better if it had included the team faced. IMO

Don't really have a point to all of this but thought I'd comment since it seems everyone else is out on this Saturday night.
