I'm kind of tired of hearing this:

"Jones for 2" " JOnes for 3" "jones fighting for 1 one maybe 2 yards" " Jones gets stuffed behind the LOS"



We need barber in there to get us a little more than 3 yards.

I dont know what you watched today, but that was Barber who got stuffed for a loss or no gain on basically all his carries, not Jones

Why is Barber getting stuffed at the goal line if he is so great.

It's the o-line....open your eyes. I've been saying this all year that they aren't as good as our stats say.

What are the stats since Romo took over. Like how many rushing yards did we have while Bledsoe was starting and how many Rushing yards have we had since Romo took over??

:hammer:

you are right. Hopefully we can do something about it rather than going after an aging vet with health problems and a journeyman guard. However, Flozell has been a problem most of the year as well. The only two that are playing up to expectations or even beyond them are Columbo and Gurode although Gurode did have some high snaps tonight.

2 of our RBs cant even combined for more than 50 yards against the Eagles run D, who is ranked 31st, giving up 175 rushing yards a game. PATHETIC!!!!

Again, an O-line that hasn't been able to open holes for MOST of the season. Get real, it all begins and ends with the o-line. A RB can't do much when defenders are IN the backfield and the o-line doesn't provide a hole.

Seriously...is this THAT hard to understand? They have better o-lines than we do.

Do you HONESTLY think that LT would be doing the same exact thing in Dallas? Give me a break. Unbelievable.
