Is expecting anything different from these Dallas Cowboys under Jerry Jones and Big Red. Let's see, bad coaching....check. Not establishing the run and not sticking with it and going for a 56 yard field goal during a half where your defense was holding up and where you had flipped field position is classic bad Big Red. Bad undisciplined penalties check! Critical holding penalty by O'Leary to stall a critical drive and bone headed penalty by your best player to seal the game on 3rd and 5. Your players not making plays, check. Witten dropping a key pass in the second half in his stomach and Ware not making a play and your athlectic and supposed star linebackers getting torched for 3TDs. Finally, our recent stud draftees failing miserably, check, check. Mo was torched all day long and well Terrence Williams showing once again that he is a wasted pick. 8-8 here we come...actually 7-9.

On the bright side, we play in the worst division in football.

On another bright side we play on the high point of our roller coaster next week. Oh wait we play Denver next week, and our coaster doesn't go that high.

LOL...yeah, I wouldn't expect a bounce back next week. But, you never know in this league...

Watch us beat Denver in a game everyone chalks up as a loss, everyone talks us up like we have a shot if we put it all together and then we lose in embarassing fashion to the lowly Redskins the following week.

Or, you know, Denver could just have their way with us and win 48-17 or something like that.

Yeah, the bad news is, the Cowboys will probably be 2-3 after next week.

The good news is, they will still be in first place in the NFC East.

I expect JG to think he has to outscore Denver and come out slinging, which is the 100% opposite of what we need to do to have a chance. Pound the rock, win time of possession, use play action for big plays, shorten the game and try and win a 27-24 type game.....Or, come out trying to outscore them, let Romo throw for 400 yards, add possessions for Denver, and get beat 52-28

Its hard to run the ball and work on time of procession when your defense can't stop anyone and you start playing behind all the time.

All of that only works when you have a great defense behind it.

Sometimes a team has to just impose their will. This team has shown early in this year that hey can win in the trenches on both sides of the ball. I think if Murray gets going early and we can score in the red zone...I see no reason why UK's observation can't work. One thing that needs to imrove right away s Romo ypc think it's like 6.7. Meanwhile Mannings is 9.8 wow.

We are not mentally tough enough to impose our will. If we can't do it against teams like San Diego, how will it look when we play elite teams. And cupcakes like the Rams don't really count in my book.

Great point. Time to turn the Corner. Starts with the coaching staff.
