Folks, no loss feels good, but we are just fine. I understand the frustration, yell and let it out, but then come down to earth.
Did anyone here expect us to go 16-0. Did anyone here expect us to just sit at the top with no pitfalls, no obstacles to over come.
!!! Anytime 2 teams from the NFC EAST lock up either can win, we will lose some. We will be alright.
We lost yesterday and here is why!
First - Newman played bad yesterday, maybe the worst I have seen him since he has been with Dallas, although Steve Smith got him bad his rookie year in that playoff game. Newman's play hurt us bad yesterday, but I have no concerns about Newman he will be just fine.
Second - Coaching was not good yesterday, but I do not put this on Wade, I put this on Garrett. I do not care if we are having problems running the football, you still got to run it some. I understand what Garrett was doing, but he really hurt our defense and put them on the field way to long.
OUR DLNE got worn down, you could see them spent in the fourth Qtr.
And what I could not believe is why did Garrett not use Felix Jones on draws and screens, he got stubborn trying to beat them down the field, this was the perfect game to get Felix involved. Garrett usually kames great adjustments, he did not yesterday, he was stubborn and hurt the defense and offense.
Third - The Skins played as well as they can possibly play - Give them some credit, they are not the bad team many thought they where, but still had to play flawless to beat us by 2 points.
Look Newman will be fine, the coaches will learn from this and we will March on. The team got a little reality check, everything was so pretty, everyone was on their jock, now that pressure is off and we have some stuff to work on and get better.
No reason to believe half this roster and coaching staff are BUMS! That is just a little silly.
NO Championship contender goes through a season without some bumps in the road. Trust me there are a couple more bumps to go.
