I've watched enough games to see when a team is close to collapsing, this team is not firing on all cylinders and sitting for two weeks doesn't help, you have to worry about a team thats played this poorly down the stretch.

Ratliff, Newman, Gurode

Offense

I dont see Gurode as a play maker

by Deke on Dec 30, 2007 5:35 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

so its Gurodes fault

that Romo threw a pick and is 7 for 16 for 86 yards. Where was T.O in the lion and Eagle game, dont remeber him being injured. So, OK, if Gurode and T.O cant play in two weeks, that'll be the excuse why we lost.. I'll write that down!!

Ok, I just want to know who you're going

by Deke on Dec 30, 2007 5:43 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

sorry, offense

but Gurode is key to both run and pass offense, in both making plays and calling plays for the O-line. I would say our lack of passing yards and the pressure on Romo can be at least partially ascribed to his absence.

And T.O.'s absence is big.

I'm not asking the to win

but without T.O and Gurode, this offense should of atleast moved the ball on a couple of series, I'm not looking for them to put up thirty.

Wheels Are Coming Off

I could stomach a loss, even to the Redskins who I hate.

I can stomach a poor game.  But I can't bear to see this team look so mentally sloppy.  Our offensive starters played terrible, especially Romo.  Our backups look disinterested.  It's like we took the week off.

History is not kind to teams that coast into the playoffs, like we are.

It's entirely possible we lose our first playoff game.  There is no entitlement that goes with being the number one seed in the playoffs.  We need to play better soon, or we're toast.

I'm an optimist like Terry, and still feel very good about our chances in the postseason with key starters back, two weeks to rest, and the intensity of the playoffs to focus the potential of this team, but the last few weeks have certainly not inspired confidence, and definitely have me a lot more concerned than I was after Pack game.

Wouldn't it be justice...

...if Bobby Petrino began his first few years @ Arkansas with limited scholarships and some kind of probation -- esp. after how he did Arthur Blank @ The Falcons?!?!

1995

The 1995 team went 2-2 in December, but went on to squeek out a SB win!  I hope we repeat 1995.  

I think we looked this bad because the starters stayed out longer than expected.  They mailed it in today.  The backups would have played harder because they would have been playing to keep a roster spot.

I hated the way we played because it was against the skins and I hate looking at the smug look on Gibbs face when they win against the Boys, but we only went through the motions so I wont burn for 2 weeks.

On the bright side, if we were really playing hard I think we score 2 TD's in the 1st half instead of attempting FG's and we could have scored 2 more TD's with our starting receivers [drops] and maybe won this game.

I will worry in 2 weeks if their is a repeat performance.

The 1995 Team

Won their last two games, including a road blowout against Arizona in their final game.  That last game righted the ship for the playoffs, but in this case we're still taking in water.
