My Rant

Has there been a team to win a superbowl heck even goto a 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….

My thoughts

are that Wade Phillips has to go. I have never seen another football team play with any less heart than what I saw last night. Considering that they game was the last one in Texas Stadium, you would think they would be motivated and playing as if their lives depended on a win.

It appeared that Roy Williams and Tashard Choice were out there playing with heart and a few of the defensive players also. Wade Phillips actions on the sideline say it all for this team this year. He just looks like he has no clue and isn’t into the game, with that “Oh Shucks, what are we gonna do now” look on his face.

Super Bowl party at my place, Dallas vs. ?, who's in?

Landry won 2 SB

In Romo we Trust

But Landry

Was a brilliant strategist and game planer and his teams always played smart football. Wade, not so much. Landry was also an expert teacher of the game. Wade, not so much.

BTW, Dungy is another great example of a coach that doesn’t scream to get things done and neither was Bill Walsh a screamer. But I won’t insult any of these fine coaches by comparing them to Mr. (0-4 in the post-season) Wade Phillips.

0 = The number of Super Bowls the Eagles have won.

just answering your question

He didn't lose his cool on the sidelines

Either with happiness or anger, but his assistants yelled plenty and he backed them up in the locker room and on the practice field. He and Brandt also had no trouble cutting under performers.

As Romo we go
