A. 4/12 on third down conversions means the offense stunk up the place.
B. Eli Manning beat our defense, Tony Romo didn't beat theirs, that is not a bright spot and he did not do good.
C. Blanked out in the first half,...that means the offense was bad, including the QB stop trying to hide that fact.
D. You're right we got rid of Elam once,.....and then ended up needing him back because of injuries. This is all part of that karma from that dumb idea that getting rid of Terrell Owens and replacing him with Roy E. Williams was such a great thing. ..... Oh I forgot the part where Jerry for no good reason decided not only wasn't it better to keep Terrell Owens and then phase him out at a cheaper price and save that cap space,.....he spent that cap space and then some on a three year bust (Roy E. Williams) remember that? what was it 45 million with a 9 million dollar out clause? That's why we ended up settling for Elam when we should've been able to command better. So you see class, it really would've been cheaper to keep her (T.O) because we would've saved a whole lot of cap space. And yes as ineffective as he was against the Eagles in 09' it would've made no difference if it was Roy E. Williams or Terrell Owens on the field we would have won that game with either of them,......it just would have cost less with the guy you were scared of because he wasn't scared to say he wants to win.
E. It's hard to say if the scheming is just too much for these guys or if they're just not good enough. It looks like to me the entire defense worked better the way Wade had it when we went 13-3. Maybe Ryan's playbook is too difficult for these guys. Maybe we need to see what it looks like with a whole off season to practice and a massive change in personnel.
F. Doug Free is not good enough in this division. He needs to be in a slower less demanding division. That's the nice way of putting it. Martellus Bennett needs to go too. I can't figure out what the hold up is. This whole idea where Jerry allows these lame coaches to talk him into keeping people who just don't show up is beyond me. I'd trade Felix Jones too. He's good trade bait right now,..somebody will need his skills.
G. Jason Garrett wasn't good as the OC, why the hell would you promote him where he can even better destroy the team's chances (you know like the Jets game where he let Tony Romo talk him into running instead of settling for the FG just like tonight, and where he froze our own kicker)? This is what the "good ole boy" system gets you,...........wasted seasons.
I wonder if Jerry will make a rash decision that will end up being something good for the team this time around???
I think you are off with the coaching, Garrett has never been fired and Rob Ryan has never been fired. Coaches who are let go when a new head coach comes in is not the same thing because coaches want to bring in their own guys. I feel like Garrett is a good coach who is taking the team in the right direction, but even if I didn't how can you criticize a coach for putting his team in position to make the playoffs when he just has average talent to work with?And what makes you think Garett is not just an average coach or better yet just another one of JJ cronies?
He's also the perfect coach to work with the cancer that is Jerry Jones because he's not a yes man like Wade, but he doesn't try to take over the show either like Parcells. He's able to walk that middle path and Jerry respects him, so hopefully that gives him more say when it comes to talent aquisition.
I got some good news and some bad news, the good news is I made $200.00 off the Cowboys; the bad news is it’s a sad day when you bet against your team because you know they outright suck. I no longer can blame Romo because the whole team is just bad on both sides of the ball, nobody can tackle or defend the pass, and the offense can only score when the game has already been decided. Come next year nothing will change we will be talking pretty much about the same thing. Jerry Jones got his cheap Wal-Mart team won’t go out and get guys that can defend , won’t go out a get a real coach , wont go out a get someone that can backup Romo or challenge him for the position.there’s nothing a Cowboy fan say right now to defend the Cowboys in anyway. It’s time the true Cowboy fan needs to admit that the Cowboys suck , and a change needs to be made.
