Dallas Cowboys December Woes Continue In 20-17 Loss To Chargers

I could not BELIEVE when Norm dropped those stats... To be so great on offense and not score truly steals away all of my arguments that JG isn't the problem...

I read it again in the paper, just looking at how we've been since the first 4 games or something, and it puts us at like 17th in scoring in the NFL since then.

Bevo, we miss your stats!

Well, Hellishere, I don't think it makes a lot of sense to use Barber early. He is a game closer. He's lost his true role on the team and it shows.

I just read an interview with JG about the RB rotation, he said he likes the results so far, and that it will stay Barber-Jones-Choice, in that order.

David..JG isn't just stupid but he is stuck on stupid..

Love that..funny and sadly true..

Bev,
It means we have the talent to put up a lot of yards but dont have the OC to get them into the endzone...JG sucks so bad and is so predictable...This is twice this season now when opposing defensive players have stated in the media they knew what plays were coming.....HE Sucks so bad..And here is more to why he sucks so bad..Free replaced Columbo and has done a nice job but everyone knows his weakness is run blocking...So why the fuck do you run behind him 3 fucking times in a row...Apparently boy genius didnt learn a dam thing from the Denver game when he called back to back pass plays to hurd of all people going up against their best corner...JG isnt just stupid but he is stuck on stupid...This team needs all new coaches except Joe D...They need a coach with an attitude to get them to over achieve not under achieve...

Strange Stats..
Dallas is number 3 in yards per rush
Dallas is number 2 in yards per pass
Dallas is number 13 in scoring
Last 56 possessions..43 empty possessions
Not sure what they mean..just interesting

David, I was venting I was a bit drunk and upset when i wrote that...its just annoying to see ur team lose such a winnable game..the secondary has been torched all season and its not all their fault..i dont think we got to rivers once yesterday...we cannot win games if we dont get sacks plain and simple..I have a feeling that we will be able to beat the saints..only if we get to him atleast 2 or 3 times..if we dont get to him we will lose the game plain and simple

TD,
Your so right..When a guy calls Jenkins just ok thats just ignorant and totally shows you know nothing about football...Erik please tell me your just venting and talking out of frustration..The kid might be going to the pro bowl this year..This team needs a complete overhaul in the coaching staff with the exception of Joe D...The last two weeks the boys have been the better team and lost because of big plays and penalties..JG sucks so bad its ridiculous..The fact that he sent barber on a freaking sweep shows how bad he sucks...Jones would have been able to hit the corner and gain about 5-8 yards but barber got stuffed for no gain..Im going to say it again and again he is the slowest rb in the league...Did anyone notice that most of the time when barber gets his nice runs is off the draw plays...But Felix had several nice runs with regular run plays..And the goal line stand please that was pathetic..Look I love Barber but if you really watched closely on two of the goal line runs there were actually small openings briefly but barber is to slow to get to them.He is the most effective as the closer..His bruising style is more effective against worn out defenses...And he has no chance to take one to the house from any great distance...Judging by the espn articles I think even Jerry is starting to see this...

Fu%$ YOU NICK FOLK!

Yet another game changing miss from him again but this time he can't blame it on the holder. Tony Romo played great again and put this team in a position to win. Fellas I hope im proven wrong on Saturday but this team has no heart. D-Ware one the most respected players in the league and the cowboys locker room goes down with a neck injury. You would think that would be enough to push the defense into another emotional level. Nope they give up a touchdown 3 plays later!!!! WTF its unacceptable and makes me sick to think about. Barber needs to be benched because he's not running with the fire he once had. I read someone's post earlier claiming M. Jenkins is just ok????? That kid has been playing his butt off in only his second year. Seems like every game this kid is getting a pick and he gave up only one big play to a 6'5 M. Floyd and he he tipped that ball. Overall that was a game we should of won we played with no emotion. As much as I'd like to keep putting the blame on one person I can't its the whole team.

Oh and Roy looks solid as a number 2. Forget what we're paying him or what we traded for him, it is was it is and we have a good #1 in austin, a great #2 in Roy Williams, and an excellent but inconsistent #3 in Crayton.

(Adjective based on their 1, 2, or 3 status, of course. It's the only way Roy can be called great)

Cut Nick Folk and we win the game.

Going for it on 4th down on the goal line made SOME sense... I mean you have to figure they ran the ball 12 times on that drive for solid gains. Def. don't agree with giving it to Barber, on the 4th down though, especially since they sent the fullback out as a decoy instead of a blocker...

But we go for it and get 7 or go for it and rely on the defense to take advantage of the bad field position. Which we did.

We then got the ball back and looked to get the 3 points we missed out on, then Nick Folk blew it again.

That guy sucks ass who can he blame this time? He had 2 great years, then a hip surgery and now he's total piss. Make that field goal and we win the game.

I'm sorry but everyone on this team did everything to put us in position to win this game (nice drive at the end, too) EXCEPT folk. I hang this one solely on the kicker guys. Other areas could improve but they did well enough to put us in position to win.

If he's not cut I'll be sorely disappointed.

Oh, and there's actually still a pretty good chance for the playoffs so shut up about that crap. But if we don't go to the Superbowl I'll take the high draft pick.

ratlift is great and we do not need to spend more money on a player we do not need..our secondary needs help..they dont respect campos..dont you guys remember when they pulled his shorts down in fron of the TV? jenkins is ok but Alan ball looks lost out there..we really need to start utilizing our backs better..Choice was in the bench the whole time looking up at the tv..the kids got a lot of heart and he can make plays..if we keep playing like this Drew Brees is going to have career highs this saturday. Romo showed up when he had to. the defense just let him down as usual..the running game was there but everytime we scored and gave them the ball the defense just gave all the momentum away and we cant win like that..for as much as i like Miles he is not a T.O we cannot get in a shoutout everygame...we do not have the players to do so. our pass rushers are too eager to get the sacks so all Eli and Rivers had to do was take one step and they were safe...this team needs heart and leadership

The next coach, if the Cowboys keep the 3-4 needs to push Jerry to draft or sign true 3-4 players like:
Terrance Cody, Ala
Dan Williams, Ten
I like Jay Ratliff, but he is too light in the middle, a true 3-4 needs a space eater in the middle like Vince Wolfork NE or Shaun Rogers CLE. If I remember correctly the Cowboys had a chance to draft Shaun Rogers or Casey Hampton. But Jerry being the brilliant man, traded down.

OL Help
Wish list:

Ciron Black OT LSU
Russel Okung OT OSU
Bryan Bulaga OT Iowa
Mike Lupati OG Idaho

Just to name a few

Blame starts and ends with one man, Jerry Jones.  He is too prideful to admit when he is wrong.  If he wasn't, we would be talking about a dynasty with Jimmy Johnson at the Helm.  Jerry Jones wants to prove it was him not Jimmy, who should get the credit for those championships.  It is his fault the Cowboys had such horrible drafts, and spend large sums of money in the offseason for assistants who call for a trap down inside the one on fourth down. Where is the sneak, Jason Garrett? I have seen high school teams better organized than what Dallas is, right now. The defense crumbles at the worst time.  Tony Romo is playing good but not great, Marion Barber doesn't seem to run like his hair is on fire anymore. The OL seems too lazy at times. Folk, has no excuse, he should be cut. Just bad football. The train has left the station, and the Cowboys have missed their ride.

Forget about Wade going, we HAVE to get rid of the guy caling the plays.  giving the ball to Barber (the guy who NEVER makes anyone miss) 3 times is ridiculous.  CHOICE needs to get on the field more often.

Oh yeah, Crayton needs to find a new place to disappoint.   He's a bum.  Play the kid (Ogletree) in his place. 

I thought our biggest need in the offfseason was a stud OT out of college to replace Flozell, but now I think it's a playmaking WR that can return kicks, and ball-hawing safety.

Second week in a row Tony has played well and the team still loses..I have no idea how many times the defense has allowed a score after a Cowboys score..but I will let you know..
