This could get ugly!,,

 

[GNG]

On 2nd thought, Cassel better get ready

It will take time for Cassel to learn the offense.

 

[Bmurph]

how many drops for TWill so far this year?

 

[UK Cowboy]

That was a nice throw, clanked off TWill

Weeden is one of he least mobile QB's Ive ever seen, like he's running in quick sand!

 

[GNG]

Wow... just wow.

 

[tomodach10]

It carried the team against the Eagles.[/QUROTE

RARELY!

I agree.

Yeah, it's nothing personal against Weeden. He played well when the checkdowns were there, but the interception at 21-7 turned the game. 2nd half, as soon as the adjustmentswere made to cover the underneath routes, he had nothing. Other teams are gonna play us the same way the Falcons did in the 2nd half. Really disappointing 2nd half

Yeah its almost as if they have to open up the offense he has very little ability to execute the plays.

This season is in trouble now. Needed this win. Injuries are killing football

I thought after the first series of the 2nd half, it was obvious they were going to take away what was working. First down play action could have given Weeden some easy throws downfield. Hard to blame the coaches, we are playing with a seriously short deck on both sides of the ball. If Dallas is healthy, that's a blowout win for the Cowboys IMO, but with the injuries both ways, they were just the better team today

Weeden hasn't been just terrible, but the offense is really limited. I think he gets one more start, if we lose, it'll be Cassel

I'll give him this much, I don't think Williams and Street give him a ton. I know we're not supposed to pick on Williams because he makes some plays here and there, but I'll maintain that he doesn't pull in enough balls when a defender is on him. He just doesn't appear to be the kind of guy that's comfortable making the physical catches, more times than not. He's almost the anti-Dez in that regard. I'm still not sure what Devin Street is on the roster for. Blocking?

TWill reminds me of some of the guys the Cowboys used to stick across from Irvin. It's easy to make plays when the best corner and a safety are taken up by Dez, but take him out, and the flaws are exposed

Should get a couple players back on Defense in a few weeks but the offense is going to be missing the play making abilities of Romo and Dez for quit awhile, Im afraid. 2-0 start was big, but it may not hold up long, if the offense is not able to move the ball enough to play from behind some.

The Saints game will be HUGE. Win that one to get to 3-1, and the upcoming dates with New England and Seattle can won't kill us. Really need to beat the Saints

 

[CarlSr]

What really sucks is that this was arguably one of the more winnable games on the schedule while Romo is out.

We get Hardy and McClain back after next week, probably looking at week 7 at the earliest for Dez and Gregory. A win against the Saints would make treading water possible
