Now I feel dumb for suggesting the team didn't play hard.

Bottom line is our own early mistakes hurt us and Seattle played really well.

My untrained eye showed me that Tyron smith is struggling at left tackle and when guys line up in that wide 9 look like Seattle did Doug free doesn't handle it well.

It's insane Jason witten had the drops he had. I have never seen him play like that.

Sean lee and Bruce carter are awesome....again I have no ability to evaluate this stuff but lee and carter look great.

On that first third and 3 Bruce carter dropped that int which I am pretty sure could have been a 97 yd pick six with the way he runs. Only one who might have caught him was Wilson.

Well that's good to know I guess. Forgot about that Carter dropped pick.

Hate to hear that Tyron is struggling, and I hate even more how the Doug Free detractors seem to have been right all along.

Just saw him struggle when they lined up in that damn wide 9 at the end.

We left a bunch of plus on the field. After listening to witten talk I think this team is going to be ok.

Get to 3-1 at the bye and they can redeem themselves in Baltimore after the break. No one will give us a chance there so it will be a good game to earn some pride back.

I just hope we are healthy enough to get through these next two games. DEz and witten must be motivated to have big games this week.

 

[Midswat]

3-1 seems like a stretch, IMO.

 

[Theebs]

I also just want to say I am embarrassed that all of the media is running to shango to come on the show and whine.

Honestly if you just watch the game again as a neutral observer you will see Dallas made too many mistakes early and then Seattle played excellent in the second half.

Setimes the other team is just better. We are an 8-8 team after all. The only difference between Dallas and Seattle last year was the one game we beat them in.

We are a team trying to put It together, not a finished product.

Honestly I think with everyone shitting on them this week it's just what the doctor ordered.

Ad this team will be revved up for a hoe Monday night game and so will the crowd. Our defense with a good environment will be tough for an equal shaky bears team.

 

[GloryDaysRBack]

I still don't understand why we played so conservatively defensively.

I heard a Shango segment on Ben & Skin this morning and on BAD Radio this afternoon. They were both making fun of him.

He had some funny lines in that thing, but anyone who takes this shit that seriously needs to have their head examined... which is pretty much what they were saying.

 

[GloryDaysRBack]

A lot of talk going on about that shango guy

Haven't seen his video. Don't really care to. The guy is annoying as shit

 

[Theebs]

it didnt look like we did in the first half, but in the second half we were dropping ware and rushing 3 it seemed more.

 

[Sheik]

I think this team expects to be a let down. It's just a culture that's been burned into them.

There's no excuse to lose to a team like Seattle. I don't care if it is a tough stadium to play in. Seattle came out and basically out hearted Dallas.

Garrett and Ryan were out coached by one of the worst coaches in the NFL. It was a terrible game plan, and the two of them never adjusted to what Seattle was doing.

This is how you beat Dallas. You come out with intensity, expose the shitty offensive line, then take what Rob will give you.

The fact that Tyron is struggling is alarming. He's the only good part on the line. Romo is going to struggle to get this team to 8-8.

I thought the same thing until i watched that all 22 tonight.

we had guys open and would have made some plays and scored some points but we dropped balls..Throw in the blocked punt and the felix fumble and its just a bad mix.

they just outplayed and outpowered us in the second half, plain and simple.

imagine the momentum swing if bruce carter comes down with this ball and goes 97 the other way...


we just played bad.

With two big games at home we have the perfect setup to bounce back. Everyone will crap on the team this week and then next week since the game is on espn, that horrendous network will spend the entire week bagging on romo and Jerry and ED Werder will probably pull some big story out of left field about Dez and his legal issues on friday or sunday so they can suck people into there overdone pregame shows.

Get to 3-1 and watch seattle win some more games and in a month the view can be a lot different.

 

[Sheik]

It'll be nice to have two home games, but I would think 2-2 is more likely.

Until this team can prove they can go out and match intensity week in and week out, I'm going to doubt their ability to do good things consistently.

 

[NoShame]

The Shango video that everyone is talking about . . .

[Irving Cowboy]

Shango is the wind beneath my wings...

 

[peplaw06]

Send in the straight jacket. He thinks his videos genuinely help the team. He told us, he watches people, he's tuned into this stuff. I bet the zone is busy fellating him.

Yup. The team has been consistently inconsistent for several years now.

 

[ThoughtExperiment]

theebs, why did the all-22 make you change your mind about how hard we played? They did play harder than us... Anytime you give up 90-yard methodical drives, and can't run the ball, the other team is playing harder than you. Unless they're just physically better than you, which I don't think Seattle is.

Now if you think we only have 8-8 talent, I guess I see it. But I don't agree with that. No way.

And on Shango, yeah, I heard every radio show talk about him. I think he's just trolling everyone, looking for a bigger media role somewhere or just more web hits. I think it's all an act. Notice how at the end he goes from "THIS IS BULLSHIT AND WE WON'T STAND FOR IT!!!!" (near tears) to "Okay, I'll do my usual video in a couple days" in a totally normal voice.

 

[Theebs]

Well I waited till yesterday to watch it, without any audio and just watching the plays it's different.

I think we played hard in the first half, got the worst game of witten's career and then had breakdowns all over in the second half.

I just think Seattle outplayed us. They had the lead and the momentum and they used it and pushed us around, just like we have done to people, like buffalo last year and Seattle ironically in that second half.

If we connected on some of those plays early it might be a different game, then in the second half we just couldn't stop them outside of that first drive.

Sometimes u just lose. I didn't see the give up I thought I saw watching the game Sunday. Team was stunned a bit and played poorly but I think the effort is there.

And we are an 8-8 team, Seattle was 7-9 and they got better at linebacker and added another runner.

The dissapointing thing is that they had sweezy and omiyale playing and we couldn't take advantage of it. That's concerning.

I honestly think we will bounce back this week.

just to be clear, I am talking about the effort of the players. I think our coaches are pretty average and we really dont do anything that gives us an advantage from week to week. But I do think I was wrong in initially saying the effort wasnt there and that the team didnt give a shit or whatever. I think seattle just beat us.

 

[ThoughtExperiment]

Ok, I think I get you. I never thought that was a 2010-Jacksonville-level outright quitting. But I do think our effort was very sub-par.
