Death by backup QB?

[R.J. MacReady]

In one final irony of the season, we just lost to and will play the remainder of our games against backup QB's.
In the normal world this would be cause for celebration. But since we turned Josh McCown into Johnny Unitas ...I don't know what to think.

My Boys never make it easy.

Well on the downside we won't be able to post any more of those threads about our opponents getting all of the breaks and us getting none...

If nothing else, we cant say we didnt get any breaks. Add the Raiders qb to the mix, and that will be 5 straight backups.

If we can stop the ground attack we will win this game. Flynn can't beat us deep. He don't have the arm strength.

I rememeber 1992, it seemed we faced a back up every week. Heck on e game Denver alternated QBs every play. I would say we faced at least 8 that year. Philly killed us early that season. I thought they were awesome. The next thing I knew we played them in the middle of the season and they started McMahon just for the hell of it over Cunningham. They wanted Randall to watch a game. Kotite at his best.

Foles is a starter. No longer can be considered a back up. Same with McCown. McCown is playing much better than Cutler. Before the Bears game, I was hoping we faced Cutler.

Foles is due for a good game against us. Hopefully the last game means something. Just not impressed with him when he played the cowboys previously. I would also rather see rg3 as he is not a great pocket passer. Cowboys control thei destiny. Not a good sign. Cowboys must adjust the coverage from zone to man or we will see flynn pick us apart. Please get heath out of the game for crying out loud

lets see....man to man, every cat grab a cat....Say? are the safeties in man when they go three and four wide? What happens when the TE goes deep middle? We should all be a coach, it's just so easy

Josh McCown doesn't exactly play like a backup. Nor does Foles.

This is why I try not to say haw the Cowboys should play, for even the dumbest NFL coach knows more about the game than the GREAT majority of us on these boards. It's one thing to say this coach is the worst I have seen, but for me to try to match X's and O's with a man who coaches for a living is an unfair fight.

Not against the Dallas Defense he didn't. I think he got a few votes for Canton off of that game.
