Yeah, ok...keep telling yourself that his absence didn't affect this team.

Like it or not, he occupied two guys on defense....they constantly rolled coverage his way....now, the can virtually play man against us and send another blitzer....voila...recipe for a struggling offense....not to mention a former QB as the OC and what do you get? An team that is built to run passing at a near 2-1 clip....42 passes and 25 runs....and it wasn't like this was a game where we didn't have the lead....we had it until a couple of minutes were left in the game....Never let the running game even get a chance to develope.

8 Rushes the entire second half....only 3 in the third quarter.

TO's absence did effect this team...but it started while he was still here. The fact is from the middle of last season, Owens has been "just a guy". His days of being a game changer are done.

Yep. Quarterbacks have never been able to play well in Mile High.......
Elway?


That's because he lived there and practiced there before he won.

Say what?



(stupid cowboy fan)

Jerry Jones hired Wade Phillips. Jerry Jones allowed our entire personal department leave with Parcells. Jerry Jones made Red Ball the heir apparent to Phillips when he is just as inept. Jerry Jones won't hire a GM. Jerry Jones is one of the Cowboys biggest issues. (along with the gutless ****** under center, the gutless defense, and the moronic coaching staff) Jerry Jones dead= a better Dallas Cowboys. The whole addition by subtraction theory.

I dont think the thin air was much of a factor at all. Wade did a good job of rotating defensive players through out the game.

Might as well use wearing pink as an excuse if your using the air as one. Looked like same old Cowboys playing to the level of their competition not raising the level of their own team.

You might want to consider the possibility that the Cowboys and Broncos aren't as far apart in overall talent as some folks around here think they are.

Yeah - both average teams. Only Denver let go a real QB and Dallas let go their only deep threat.
