worst I've felt in awhile

[Bob Sacamano]

just as I'm starting to get comfortable w/ these Cowboys, they pull a doozy

not just lose, but look downright awful doing it, this was the 1st time I actually stopped watching the game

props to the Saints though, they didn't let that 77 yard TD run break them, just came right back and marched down the field, time, and TIME again

the reason I feel so awful about this, is because we're pushing for the #2 seed, trying to gain some distance on our NFC foes, esp. in the East, since New York and Philly are still alive, and we blow it...strong playoff teams aren't supposed to look this bad, this time of the year

again, I can take a loss, but not getting blown out, this late in the season, when we're trying to do something, well, I'll have a week to stew about this, hopefully I can buy this '97 Mustang tomorrow, and make myself feel alot better than I am right now

Why are you so surprised we tanked it tonight? It has happened all 3 previous years that BP has been at the helm here. His team fade down the stretch. I had hoped this year would be different but it looks like the same old deal. Maybe we'll sneak into the playoffs this year like we did in 2003 only to get trounced in the first round. I guess we potentially have that to look forward to.

One loss hardly qualifies as a harbinger of fading given it follows on the heels of a 4 game winning streak.

We also won two of our last three in 2003 to get in.

2004 we actually were 3-3 after US Thanksgiving.

Last year, we won two of three before the meaningless final game of the year.
