I think even the backups will do well today.

There are two Adrian Petersons, but there is only one Marion Barber.

I think

the backups esp brad johnson will have a good game regardless. I dont think it will be a blowout at all. The redskins are banged up. Also ware and ellis are going to be playing most of the game so have fun todd collins because they are competeing to be the sack leader of the team and leauge

I Hope We Don't Mail This One In

We've not looked dominant since the second quarter of the Green Bay game.  I do not like going into the playoffs with these poor performances.  A team can't just turn on great performances like it's a light switch.

Agreed

Even if you lose the game with scrubs, the starters should look sharp and score at will while they're in their.

yes he is

almost the same play was made by Dallas a few games ago. I don't even recall the details right now, but it was the one that the VP of officiating had on NLF Network videos. He ran into the receiver but was not charged PI because his shoulder was inside and he was going for the ball. It was the play that generated a lot of discussion here and elsewhere about whether PI should be reviewable.

I know we really have nothing much to...

... play for, but doesn't it look like most of the guys in the game act lethargic -- esp on offense?

And is it just me, or does it seem like Jacques Reeves has regressed.

I'm legitimately concerned about our secondary right now going into the playoffs.

We have not played consistently well for almost a month...

by kcbrett5 on Dec 30, 2007 4:06 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

I agree witht he lethargic statement

but as far as Reeves goes, I never thought of him as anymore than a fourth corner, he's not a number three or two corner.

by Deke on Dec 30, 2007 4:09 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

That's why I'd like...
...for us to spend one of our first rounders on a corner AND maybe add a corner via free agency.

Quality CB & safety play is all that's missing for this to be a better defense next season.

Ever since trailer trash girlfriend...

Romo has not played well at all since, dump da pig.

not true, he played well last week

and against the Jets and Packers, and Lions.

Santana Moss

Might be regarded as an elite receiver if he didn't always drop the ball when colliding with the ground.

Still don't think we need to draft a CB ???

think again...top priority.

Should have picked Cromartie

instead of Carpenter. Thanks a lot BP.

by Longhorn on Dec 30, 2007 4:48 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

wasn't a need at the time

we were swwitchign to a 3-4 defense and didn't know if Ellis could play that position, thats why Carpenter was the pick, very logical choice at the time.

by Deke on Dec 30, 2007 4:53 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

this reminds me of a game a few years back

under the same weather conditions when we played against the Skins and Emmitt Smith needed like 55 yards to get to 1000 for the season and the team completely laid an egg and was blown out.

I thought dallas would close up shop early and the Skins would win easily, but I thought dallas would have a couple good series, but I guess not.

by Longhorn on Dec 30, 2007 4:55 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

we also got blown out by skins in 92

the last game and came out and played great in playoffs and won the SB

by Terry on Dec 30, 2007 4:57 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Wrong

They were extremely luck to beat us 20-17, and it wasn't the last game.  There were two after it (at Atlanta, home against Chicago) and won both convincingly.

This team is fading into the sunset.

by kindablue on Dec 30, 2007 4:59 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

I think Emmitt had 25 yards for the game

missed 1000 for the season, it was Campo's last game as the headcoach

by Deke on Dec 30, 2007 5:00 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Dave Campo's Last Game

as Cowboys head coach, in 2002.

This game has the same resigned, depressing feel to it, like there's no way we'll win.

by kindablue on Dec 30, 2007 4:58 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

NO

Not great, but definitely not utter despair. Several key starters not playing, playing conservatively to avoid injury, Washington playing with their season on the line, defense is making some good plays...

Yes, I'm concerned for the playoffs.

by llutherr on Dec 30, 2007 4:49 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

Due to injuries

And they have how many out due to injuries? At least five.

by llutherr on Dec 30, 2007 4:57 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Bright Side

Brad Johnson should be in to mop up in the 2nd half.

by Doomsday on Dec 30, 2007 4:50 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

we should have blown carolina away a rookie qb

Had them in the game until the end and steve smith made our corners look bad.

Wow

it's unbelievable that these Refs still don't know the rules, pathetic...

I would have gone for the kick

Offense

The offense is what I have a problem with. The play calling is suspect. I hope they went vanilla once we wraped up the division and are saving the new plays oh no is he hurt!!!!!!!!

Romo

needs to go take a shower, that was stupid to run around in the pocket like that...

If Garrett clled for a pass play instead

of a FG attempt, he's welcome to join Parcells.

Wharter

by Wharter on Dec 30, 2007 4:56 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

not good.

I understand we're without 5 starters, but damn. We don't look good at all.

There are two Adrian Petersons, but there is only one Marion Barber.

by Nelson on Dec 30, 2007 4:59 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

if you guys think we looked bad in 1st half

wait til Johnson plays in second.

by Terry on Dec 30, 2007 5:00 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

Well

he doesn't have TO, so probably look the same...

One game and out

The way this team is playing, I see one playoff game and then we are out.

And What Scares Me, Besides the Last Month

...is Wade Phillips has never won a playoff game.  He's always had a good regular season record, but he's never won in the playoffs.  This is a young team, and I'm officially worried.

by kindablue on Dec 30, 2007 5:03 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Special Teams under Wade

Don't look good either. This year's team included, we haven't improved from last year but we've had a few good players carry the load.

by Doomsday on Dec 30, 2007 5:07 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Oh, Really?

...and what in the last month makes you think that is going to happen?

Sasquatchelvis

by Sasquatch on Dec 30, 2007 5:28 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Sad - just sad

Julius Jones 4 rushes = 5 yards

Marion Barber III 5 rushes for -2 yards

Roy Williams missed tackles = several

Jason Witten catches 1 of 4 = 8 yards

Tony Romo 6 completions = 70 yards, sacked, intercepted

Analysis: Offense sucks, defense almost sucks

by lee3022 on Dec 30, 2007 5:03 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

At least

Brad won't care if Jessica sees him screw up. He might just salvage this game.

by Doomsday on Dec 30, 2007 5:03 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

Starters should stay on bench..

Not because we want to rest them, or protect from injury...it's because their aweful play warrants it.

I feel we probably have a better chance to win with Brad Johnson in the game.,,,never thought i'd say that.

hope those benches aren't made of wood

some of the players might get injured by splinters and miss a couple of weeks.

i don't like it.

I think the fact that the starters

and not expected back is what is discouraging because we do not expect the subs to make up 13 point deficit.

good...keep ROMO in to make ammends for poor play
