Captain says "Salvation will set you free"

by Captain Comeback on Dec 21, 2008 8:10 AM CST

Go to the store today and put some change in the Red salvation army container. A lot of it! Lucky for me I had a hunch that this team would not complete their mission. I was hoping to be wrong, so much so I started a reverse psychology bit. It worked last week but unfortunately some of the so called" top 10 reasons" actually held true. I didn't want to set myself up to get let down yet again. It's hard to take year after year. This team has not given us a playoff win since '96 and don't know if there is one is on the horizon anytime soon. The talent is there but, this collective boat of players doesn't have the heart or smarts to make any noise in the playoffs let alone get there. Jerry needs to do some soul searching and decide if wants to continue running the Cowboys or hire someone to do it for him. Wade needs to go and somebody who is going to make these players responsible for their bone-headed play needs to coaching this team. It's going to be a long off season. Now with NO first round draft pick, there is not that much to get excited about. All I have to say is I want Coach Cowher. Do I still want to make the playoffs? off course! But we sure as hell don't deserve too. And, what if we do? Do you really want to see that outcome? I'm no chemistry major and I don't know the reason why this team doesn't perform but I do know there needs to be a lot of change.

has there been a team to win heck even goto the superbowl

who didnt have a coach that would get fired up and yell and hollar. Colts maybe? But Peyton did enough of that to make up for what dungy didnt do. I love the idea that the next few practices every position is up for grabs and whoever plays with the most heart and drive should start. Last night was embarrassing our D didnt not play well at all. We let the ravens kick a FG whenever they wanted.

Our O was not clicking the long ball was there if romo could get insync. You cant run a DRAW every play of the game ESPECIALLY if you cant complete a pass. Why didnt we just stay in some solid I FORMation let them guess if we will power run or max protect and pass or send all five guys out. I can coach this team better then this just by drawing up plays on the spot.

Special teams still suck we have no push on any return team. OH OH OH um 4 and 2nd you need 9 points its what a 53?yd FG FOLK IT!!!!! Hes money. Hes also so money i was positive he would make the perfect onside it would just be up to our guys to catch it and not toss it to mason. Seriously you dont try for the first down there you just dont. Unless i was wrong and its 63yd i cant remember. They still were in it too even with that second 77yd td run. But it didnt seem like anyone took notice to that. No one was jumping on the sideline when pacman actually made a return. No One was running out on the field in excitement that after all that happened we still had THREE timeouts and still where in this.

I know all the raven fans at the bar around were saying its over just let go and it wasnt! Hello Buffalo bill game last year… that High School game from 1994 they kept showing.. its not over til its over. But it felt like Witten was the only one really trying. I would hate to see him leave Dallas because he wants a team with heart. Ugh its so frustrating…

I thought the ravens line was beat up.. Ware was fired up at the begining but they shut him out. What happen to confusing a rookie qb ? He was passing it pretty good. Did pacman’s return hurt our secondary? Idk so many questions so many answers.. now we give the bucs and ATL something to really play for. Lets go chargers (luckily they still have something to play for haha wouldnt that be something) Lets go minn and WAS its going to be tough if we get in the playoffs…

Will we deserve a playoff berth? Will the team then show some heart? Is barber’s presence more valueable then we thought? Do we need him more then we know? Will this team give a damn next week in philly lets hope they come out pissed off and ready to play regardless if they still have a chance to make it or not. What was the game everyone cheered at the end when they won? I cant think but we need to get back to that….

What the French?! Toast!
