Hey, a win. Yay team!
I am just amazed at how week in and week out, this cant put any consistency together in any phase of the game. I know we have alot of injuries, but those injuries dont excuse how stupid this team is coached.
1) Thought Romo had by far his best game of the year, not only just in terms of numbers but in terms of how well he threw the ball too. The pass protection started out shoddy (as usual) but seemed to improve as the game wore on, and he had time to make some plays downfield. His downfield accuracy was by far the best it had been all year. Seemed the extra few days off might have done his arm some good, as he appeared to have a little more zip on the ball. Didnt see any of the ducks or bad mis-throws we'd seen most games all year either.
2) Demarco Murray will be a superstar if he can eventually have a healthy season. He's a stud. Has all the talent in the world and a great atttude to go with it.
3) Dez Bryant is really turning into th player I think we all hoped he would be. His route running is vastly improved. I think its clear now that this thing that hovered over him most of the year (the charges from his mom) had some impact on how he was playing, because since its been resolved he has really been alot better. He now has 71 catches, 978 yds and 8 tds. He has 6 tds in his last 4 games, came up just 2 yds short last night of his 3rd straight 100+ yd game. Along with Murray and Tyron Smith, he can be a cornerstone player on offense for years to come.
4) Thought Jason Witten had a superb game too. Finally was able to hook up with him on some downfield routes.
5) Apparently Broaddus asked Garrett if they considered benching Doug Free at halftime. He was absolutely putrid and is arguably the worst player on the team. Garrett said no. What a fucking joke. Free and Bernadeau were both terrible (as usual) and yet niether is in any danger of being benched. This is whats wrong with this franchise. Bad play is consistently tolerated and rewarded. If they had no other options it'd be one thing, but everyone could clearly see how well Parnell played in the basically two games that Tyron Smith missed.
6) I said it last night. I said it last week. I've said it several times this year. Rob Ryan is the worst DC this team has ever had. He is a clueless putz. His defense was shredded by a team playing without their starting QB, best offensive player (McCoy) and most explosive playmaker (Jackson), and they had a hodge podge OL blocking for them. Nick Foles said after the game that "they played really soft coverages all night". Collinsworth and Michaels said during the game that nobody blitzes less than Dallas, and nobody plays more 3 man rush/cover 8 than Dallas. The defense is garbage. The scheme is garbage. I am 99.9% sure he'll never get another DC job in the NFL after this year.
7) Nice game by Josh Brent though. I think he's a good bet to be a fixture here for a longtime too. Got held repeatedly (never called) and had several pretty athletic moves rushing the passer. Saw him hurdle a guy once and get away to pressure Foles. Also had the only really big play of the night defensively with the forced fumble that Claiborne took back.
8) Dan Bailey is now 23/25 on kicks this year. What a freaking find he was. And he had multiple touchbacks too.
9) How the hell does a team give up a 98 yd punt return after the other team tried to block the punt? How does Joe DeCammilis stay employed?
I still think this was probably the last win of the year, although 1 or 2 more wins wouldnt be totally shocking either if the offense continues to play well. Team is going nowhere though and Jones has absolutely got to fire this inept HC and staff after the season.
