We quit running the ball...

after the Giants scored their first TD. I bet we didn't have 15 rushes.. JJ had 30 yards tonight.

More like we couldn't run the ball.

It is hard to when the Giants just send defenders regardless. They either fill the gaps and stop the run or get to Bledsoe and take him out.

People say that the run sets up the pass, but the other side is true as well. Romo will open things up, imo.

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

Agreed. You saw what happened on the first MB draw. He explodes for like 25 yards. With the game @ 15-26 we abondoned the draw and put too much on Romo's shoulders.

I got the feeling that we abandoned it too quickly as well...but then again, the o-line couldn't to ANYTHING tonight.

One way to get the defense back is to get through that first line of defenders....another way is to beat them with the pass....but the o-line didn't do their job....they shouldn't accept their paychecks with their heads held high.

if we would have stopped running up the middle we might have had a chance
