Wow, its so wierd

Washington ran the ball early and now that the cowboys defense is tired, they are closing out the game with the run. Has anyone ever heard of such an exotic strategy?

by Billito on Sep 28, 2008 5:59 PM CDT reply actions  

This is what happens when you mix run and pass throughout the game

You can chew up yards and clock in the 4th quarter b.c. of a tired defense. When you throw it 80% of the time…that doesn’t happen

I think sometimes Garret feels like he's playing Madden.

You know how you get mad because your one money play doesn’t work so you just keep pressing Y for no huddle to run it over and over again?

Outside of a coaching epiphany

This team is not dominant enough to win the East much less the conference. Horrible play calling on both sides.

Abandoned the rush before we got behind.
Backed off the blitz after the Redskins took a shot deep.
Went TOTAL Vanilla while trying too hard to get T.O. the ball
Romo – Let’s see, Forces it, Floats the ball, Stares Down T.O. like he was wearing a bikini…….

Good Grief!!

Can they put a game together in 5+ minutes????!!!

We were outplayed, outhustled and outcoached.

big freaking shock...

Nobody wanted to talk smack to me all week and the second that ball went out of bounds on the onside, i get a ton of texts from Skins fans…

We definitely didn’t deserve this one and it is certainly a wake up call. People talk about T.O spiking the ball on the star, well the Skins just took a dump on the star. That was embarassing.

I don't care about the loss

I do care about how we played.

We were outcoached and outplayed in every phase of the game by a far less talented team and now I want to see how ‘good ol’ boy’ Phillips handles this. The team was asleep, couldn’t play defense to save it’s life and didn’t make the right adjustments.

And if someone doesn’t ring Tony romo’s neck for not looking off his primary receiver, well, that’s another one on Phillips.
