and got carried out. We were up against a decent team that was up against the wall and desperate and we were not. And there it is.

as I said in an earlier post....this is one of those games where it was CLEAR which team wanted it more. Miles Austin jumped on that fumble like it was a greanade....Felix just let the guy TAKE the ball from him. We were tenative from the coahes on down all day and it SHOWED. #41 blasted Marcus Spears on the sidelines and not ONE Cowboy retaliated....this is the NFL....you BETTER be the agressor...or you will get BLASTED.

I dont think so. We made some mistakes and were outplayed. It happens. I dont think effort or mindset was a problem going in.

Miles dove on the ball. He lifted his head, lost leverage and got outmuscled by a bigger player.

Felix dove on the ball, was down by contact, then got the ball strpped by someone 120 lbs heavier AFTER the play should've been over.

Those plays had nothing to do with aggression or desperation.

I ddn't see the Spears play so i cant comment.

Miles jumped on that ball like a *****...ain't no sugar coating it. They played DESPERATE...we did NOT. Austin and Felix better get one thing clear....when it comes to Dallas...there is NO MIDDLE ground...TONS of people LOVE us....but EQUAL amounts HATE us. Teams want nothing more than to wipe the ch*t eating grins off the face of our players and fans....and our team was MORE than happy to oblige yesterday!

So now we only had two guys that showed up?

I know 95% of the guys around here have never given the other team credit but Green Bay deserves credit. Their defense played great, their offense went on a 15 play 80 yard TD drive when they needed it. They beat us. Period

I would say guys with no heart like Ware, Ratliff, and Brookings definitely mailed it in yesterday.

the 'D was outstanding. The offense was pathetic and the special teams were in between. But I agree with the majority here; they wanted it more than we did. OUr offense is soft: specifically our Oline: they are soft physically and mentally. NO they werent' that way the last 4 weeks but yesterday was a diffferent game and a different opponent. They got punched in the mouth and never responded. Just like last season.

According to Romo the team had a good practice during the week and were not overlooking the Pack. Plain and simple we made some costly mistakes and the Packers took advantage of them.

The thing is we have a legit defense now.

Our Offense getting shut down like that isn't going to happen often.

As long as Dallas has a legit defense we will be in the thick of things all year.

I agree. I felt the defense played a good game especially when you look at how long they stayed on the field.

Yeah Miles not getting that early Touchdown hurt.

Nick Folk missing another field goal hurt.

Roy Williams fumble and drop hurt.

Then the ref put us away at the end when he saw the guy was down but decided to use instant replay to his advantage so he could confirm it and didn't realise he just sealed our fate by not calling what he clearly saw on the field.

Not to make excuses for the O-Line. But you're putting the group at a disadvantage by asking them to pass protect 40-45 times against a team that blitzing the heck out of you.
You've got to let them run block to help bring out that aggressiveness.
