Too bad he isn't a 3-4 coach

He's been running the 3-4 in SF since he got there

That #38 sure should wrap up!

And he ran it some as the DC in Baltimore.

I hate the Patriots so much and I'm not watching the game, but God knows the Cowboys need some

of that fire the Patriots have. Working a decent Broncos team 34-0 with a career backup QB and an old defense? I would have put money on us losing to that same Broncos team.

What I would want the Cowboys to employ from the Patriots' playbook

are those little WR screens and quick passes to the RBs. I know Garrett is all about the vertical game, which is great for big play potential, but I would like some horizontal picking away at defenses.

That #38 sure should wrap up!

I guess that would help the O-line

Since they wouldn’t be blocking anyone on the D-line…

Watching the Broncos get humiliated on defense

Makes me hope Garrett and Houck can fix the O-line funk Dallas has had the last couple games and start pounding teams on the ground again.

The problem is

that Dallas’ O-line just can’t do anything right right now. They just seem to stack up at the LOS. Teams are selling out to stop the run and BJ isn’t going to be able to make them pay for it.

That's true

If BJ starts another game for Dallas, chalk it up as a loss. Teams won’t have any fear of the deep pass…or the mid-range pass…or passes to the sideline….or passes down the middle…or passes, well you get the point. Romo’s pinkie better feel better real quick, he’s the spark that gets the offense going.

any blind person can see

our offense runs through Romo, without him, we’re going to struggle offensively big time. BJ will be lucky to put up 10 points on the Bucs and I mean lucky.

If Romo is out again, we’ll lose, it’s just that simple.

In Romo we Trust
