The Cowboys ARE a 9-7 calibre team until proven otherwise. The only reason they were in the game is that the Eagles really aren't that good either...even at full strength. They've just had the benefit of an incredibly soft schedule (including Dallas). Keeping it close against them when they're that banged up is hardly anything to brag about.
Besides, it doesn't matter what they would have done without Bledsoe's mistakes because he's almost always going to make them in tough games. That's always been his track record and it's not going to change.
The Eagle took advantage of our corner back blitzes and our inexperience and youth at free safety.
Aside from the turnovers on the Cowboys part, that is the reason they beat us.
We'll correct that later (Watkins will learn from this experience), and I don't think the rematch is even close next time.
