Dallas at Chicago (1 Viewer)

How does Jerry jones continue to dodge the criticism? I wonder what they could do if he would get out of the way for a couple years.

 

[Bankerguy]

I can't wait to hear all week that Romo sucks in Dec.

He is THE problem.

 

[phrozen]

NECKBEARD!!!

 

[Raider Nation]

Orton looks THRILLED to be in there.

 

[flapgreen]

Didn't even know Orton was with the Cowboys. Guy has made a pretty good career for himself

The owner likes the job he's doing as a GM.

Worse, his son and likely heir to the throne still doesn't understand what he's doing with the salary cap. He's worse than Jerry, IMO, and nobody talks about this in Dallas. But they will eventually.

 

[flapgreen]

So... has the Dallas D stopped ANY Chicago drive? I think Chicago has scored on every possession I've seen.

no

Defense was the main problem, but Romo wasn't very good either.

 

[flapgreen]

Down huge in playoffs with only Forte and McCown left to go and playing against Romo and Dez. IN YO FACE FOOLS!

How funny would a garbage time 80 yarder from romo to dez be?

THANK YOU!

Saved by the Orton.

He would have had to have gone 55 for 57 for 455 yards and 6 scores for them to have even been in the game.

Self-serving statement, but maybe they should consider that. Makes more sense than counting on this defense

 

[Staley Da Bear]

:confetti:

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Wow, 2-36 is the best reception stat line of any Cowboy

 

[SengerCJ]

ALRIGHT! The cowboys defense finally make a stop!

 

[Bankerguy]

Dallas D get its first stop of game on kneel downs!!!!

How is it self serving, and what should they consider?

 

[Kool-Aid Larry]

htf is it possible for an nfl defense to play 2 games without forcing a single punt??

 

[Abspara]

I would brink back Lee, Hatcher and cut every other defensive player. Maybe keep Scandrick

Ware???

It's either he's not good at his new position or age has caught up with him.

He's expendable, but he won't go anywhere because he's one of Jerry's boys.

 

[MaxThreshold]

I ended up losing my playoff matchup because Dallas ####### gave up with 4 minutes to go and pulled the starters. Lost by one lousy point.

I hope Jason garret gets fired at the end of the season and Romo gets benched forever. Romo is from WI so he should be used to cold weather. What a flaming lily-livered wuss.

 

[ditka311]

Why did Dallas even pass at all today? They probably could have run all day at 5 ypc, controlled the clock, and made it a game.

The first will happen, the second won't.

It's a legitimately good question.

I still can't wrap my head around giving up 40 first downs.

And Chicago got 34 tonight. Plus 3, 600 yard games? My god.

 

[Billy Bats]

Hmm, Brandon Marshall just said Jay is our guy when asked about when he's ready to come back.

Marshall seems and sounds like a really good dude. First time I ever seen him interviewed.

I never would have thought Marshall would have been one of the few NFL players I actually like as a person.

Since his diagnosis he's done a lot of work with mental health charities, was one of a handful NFL players to offer an insightful take into the Martin situation, seems to be a model teammate and appears to have shed the "headcase" label.

He's a very intelligent and well spoken guy. Rare to see a guy turn it around like he has.

Man, what happened to the Dez we saw 2nd half of 2012? There must be something wrong with him because it makes zero sense how he gets no action beyond little hitch routes, comebacks

He gets plenty of action. Romo has just missed him a lot.

Romo consistently looks away from Dez. I don't get it honestly...Dez only got 4 targets all game.

 

[JuniorNB]

Has to be infuriating when he sees the Calvins, Gordons, AJ Greens, etc. getting 10+ targets every game. Not sure if that's on Callahan, Garrett, or Romo, but I can't think of a more under-utilized superstar in the NFL.

Romo only threw 20 times all game. Dez has 119 targets on the year, ranks 11. The targets thing is blown out of proportion. He doesn't get AJ or Calvin targets but it's not like he is deprived of targets altogether. He's getting over 9 a game.

You could stop crying about it. Dez has a HOF TE next to him who is getting even less attention.

@SportsCenter: The Cowboys failed to force a punt last night vs. the Bears, and became the 2nd team since 1940 to fail to force a punt twice in one year.
