1. Stupid penalties.
2. Newman dropping INTs.
3. Folk not driving kickoffs into the end zone.
4. Fasano not getting more catches (or not catching the ball???).
5. The Roy Williams thing.

Hey, I'm all giddy about our great start. These are just little things that happen during the games that drive me nuts. You are probably right though. Every team has imperfections, so point well taken.

Folk kickoffs were on purpose in my opinion.

Pass defense is the only think frustrating me.

Amen to that.

My biggest gripe is that so many season ticket holders are scalping their tickets, the green bay game is going to be filled with packer fans. It might be worse than the steelers game in 04.

I am trying to find one more ticket in my section for a friend for the skins and packers game and there are like a million tickets available, at absurd prices. It kills me that season ticket holders of the cowboys in a season like this would be selling tickets just for money. I hate that people put so much value in money, to me it is about football and the experience, not the money.

sorry rant over.

oh my one teeny weeny complaint is that the special teams coverage needs to get better, although with the free agent departures and tc cuts and now injuries we have alot of new guys with a new coach so it is to be expected, but it needs to be cleaned up because you can not give the lions, packers and eagles that kind of field position and expect to be successfull defensively.

if I had to guess, I'd say this will be the down fall of this team. Not the slow starts, not a lack of a "speed" wr, or our secondary, but stupid penalties.

Because I want Newman in the pro-bowl, this bothers me, but it isn't that big of a deal. The one against Philly had no bearing on the game, and he caught the one that mattered against buffalo

He could improve, but he was real bad sunday cause of the meadow lands winds.

Hard to complain about offensive production

He's playing fine imo.

1. LBs not making many tackles, especially against the run.

2. Secondary consistency/inconsistency

3. Penalties

4. Return game is pretty anemic.

5. Only get to beat the Giants twice in a season :D

Must be nice to not have to worry about money at all. Money is a lot more important to most people's lives than whether or not they see a football game in person or not. Money pays the mortgage, the Cowboys don't.

I would say the penalties and Roy williams. In my opinion the secondary giving up big plays would be #1.

I thought I was the only one that noticed this. I think because of their kick off coverage issues, he was instructed to kick high and short to give our guys time to get down there.

I remember Parcells commenting about this last year. He stated that he never believed in that approach, that he just wanted the kicker to kick it as far as he can and it was the kick coverage guys job to get down there and make the tackle. I tend to agree with that philosophy and I don't remember Parcells teams having coverage problems.

thats hardly what I am saying, you missed it completely.

There are people who can clearly afford to buy the season tickets, but now they are using them as a tool to make profit, my point being that those tickets should bring you more joy than the extra bucks you make scalping them.

Nothing to do with how much money you have. If you cant pay your mortgage what in the world are you doing buying season tickets?

Umm if these people can afford season tickets they are not deprived... This is just greed at this point.

If they need the money to pay the mortgage then those people should not be buying season's tickets.
