There is no excuse for this. If Kiffin had any respect for this team, he would resign. He should have stepped down at the mid season point. Every single coach on the staff needs to go. This is the result of hiring an outdated coach with an outdated scheme. It was a very bad hire by a very bad GM and Garrett should be fired for supporting the hire. This stinks. Just think of the records that have been set over the last couple of years. Last year it was team records for all-time lows in rushing the ball. Now, it is NFAl records for the worst defense. Add in the record that the Packers set with comeback and it gives a good indication of how low this team has sunk.

Not saying it's a good thing cause it isn't but how many teams won superbowl that has those records?

Look yards don't mean jack, winning is the only thing that matters. Right now we are in the hunt and don't have a losing record. Chill, stats are fun cool things to check out but W and L at the only that matters.

All these potential records only mean one thing: good entertainment.

 

[Sarge]

One thing is certain IMO - Kiffin is gone after this year (one way or the other). No brainer.

 

[Eddie]

But it's entertaining.

It is a sad state of affairs when we as fans are busy charting the potential for our D to post ignominious records by season's end and worrying that we will go down as one of the worst defenses in NFL history. I didn't think it could get much worse a couple years ago. Now, I feel like the 2013 Cowboys are like a dying pet that, even though you love your pet, the suffering it is going through is causing you great pain and anguish. Part of you wants to see your pet put out of its misery (losing tomorrow to Wash) and a part of you thinks, even though it would take a miracle for your pet to recover (win SB) that keeping it alive a bit longer (beat Wash) at least gives it a chance for that miracle to happen. Oh Jerry. How do I loathe what you have done to us for greater than a decade and a half.

Good analogy

yep i agree but it's getting sickening seeing coaching change and philosophic shifts every freaking year.

 

[Fredd]

it's like publicity to Jones....as long as the team's name is out there in any capacity, then people are talking about the franchise...

 

[tecolote]

You forgot most 400 yard passing games given up, most 600 yard games given up, two games without punts and last game where all the GB possesions in the second half were touchdowns. This is why the injuries are not an excuse, because we are not the most injured defense in the history of football. And this is one of the worst defenses in football history.

Jerry and Garrett's Kiffen hire may be the worst defensive coordinator hire in the history of the NFL. Let that sink in.

Don't be so hard on the old guy. It's not his fault he doesn't have five HOF guys on this defense the way he did in Tampa. Blame Jerruh for thinking talent has nothing to do with good defense.

"Good golly"

 

[Aven8]

And the worst thing of all these horrible stats/records is we still control our own destiny for the playoffs.

I blame this on Romo. If it wasn't for him we would be talking about what top 5 draft pick we are landing, and what is the new coaching staff going to be.

 

[punchnjudy]

Yeah, I think personnel issues will force that even without the records. They're not going to find and develop a strong front four in one off-season. I'll be impressed if they can do it in three.

 

[DoctorChicken]

Good job Granpa Kiffen!

 

[wileedog]

Rob Ryan and his top 5 ranked defense in N.O. approves.
