At Least
The defense held a good team without scoring at the end of a half. First time they’ve done that in recent memory.
They’ll have to continue playing great all game, because our offense will be hard pressed to score 17 tonight.
I guess we’ll find out what sort of mettle the team has over the next hour and a half.
Halfway to a victory

we gain no yards????….cmon offense…you have to wake up….D cant hold them that long
Romo keeps overthrowing......mainly against the zone defense.
Seattle, the world's worst sports city.
dammit
Im gonna cry man…..this is ridiculous!!!!……
they should've
done something to romo’s back
some treatment i mean its better than nothing
Superbowl or Bust?
Start a Band
And make sure you have a reliable back-up quarterback.
They did stop their sponsorship with Tiget Woods

hate to say it
but this game feels funny
need to pull away through the defense and forget Romo
get the running game going
George Teague did it all.
Yeah Romo is hurt, it may be affecting him........but Big Ben has been hurt all season and he's doing fine.
Seattle, the world's worst sports city.
Romo is hurt… might take awhile for that back to loosen up after halftime. D needs to keep the Giants out of the endzone. Hopefully Romo will get his mojo back
romo is ehh
but we need to concentrate on medium passes over the middle
get circle and screen passes to choice and let our d rape the gnats
Superbowl or Bust?
come on... we need something big and good for us..
on O….
D can’t hold all night.. no matter who we are playing..
proved that against pittsburgh
Defense needs to man up
and keep us in this game!

ok
OPPROTUNITY is knocking and we have to answer..
NOT give up a huge pass play or penalty like we usually do in this situation
we need.....
a D TD…..offense will not get it done
Tarheel, truth. Romo has been really off with his throws..
Hopefully he can get it back for a few more series. I don’t thing our D can hold the Giants to 3. You saw what happend last week. uggh

I agree
The defense will wear down in the fourth. If this game is close in the 4th, and our offense keeps playing like they are, we won’t win.
Offense has to do something.
Yep
we need a drive just to get our D some rest!

he's surrounded by Giants, put your head down and get the first down

Okay, I'm not a Cowboys fan (mark that down), but Jason Garrett should be fired. This team has the talent but not the coaching.

Why dont we play action that?
A hurt Barber and they would still think we are going there anyways. It is the perfect time. I have not seen any play action all night.
that's what i was thinkin. or maybe play action and a bootleg to Witten or Tellus
the G-Men wouldn’t have expected that.

MB3
Probably not a popular thought, but I think MB3 was MUCH better as a non-starter. He runs hard, fumbles too much and is no where near the top of the league in any offensive category.
This Game
Is giving me the willies. That was the second time a good completion on second down was wasted because the receiver went down, which forced into a third-and-one, which we failed to convert.
This team is making a profession out of wasting opportunities, and I fear it will bite us in the end.
Ha-Ha-Ha. I know right.

Look at the defense this year, leading the NFL in sacks and have not given up many points since he’s taken the reigns.

Some Breathing Room
Kudos to Garrett…he showed some glimmers of creativity there, with the 2nd and nine draw to Choice and the TD pass to Anderson. The screen to Bennett was good too.
No way we would have won with just seven points on offense. The defense needs to show their juevos and close this sucker out.
Then we will have survived for another week.
