Big deal.
That same exec was just happy they were there to pay for parking, tickets, and concessions.

I was generally ok with how most of the team played aside from Romo. The defense gave up some chunk plays of course but they were about average which is all you can ask out of them. The OL was damn solid most of the game, Murray was great aside from the fumble and the WR's were pretty solid.
Romo was a complete mess though and I can't really tell how much of it is just that it was a bad game or if he's not 100% and/or skittish because he's afraid to take hits. There were a bunch of times where he was feeling pressure that wasn't there, moving around in the pocket when it wasn't necessary and he was horribly inaccurate on several throws, not to mention the complete fucking mess he made throwing into double and triple coverage for easy picks.
We did run the ball more but going away from the run inside the 10 is completely asinine, and it even happened again when we were down 28-3 until we ran on 4th down and naturally Murray got it into the end zone. I don't know how much of it is Romo changing the plays at the line, Linehan/Garrett being pass happy dunces or both.
At any rate, I'm mostly rooting for a disaster season right now. I just want to rid ourselves of Garrett, get a top 5-10 pick, take a QB and get rid of Romo sometime soon. We have the basis of a really strong offense with the OL, Bryant and Williams, and we can rebuild the defense in 1-2 offseasons, theoretically at least.

Regarding abandoning the run inside the ten; Garrett is always gonna be pass happy and it's always gonna be a weakness, just like Andy Reid. Giving the QB, who he is close with, an option for run OR pass, is probay gonna be the best you can get. You have to hope the QB makes the smart decision.
But if we can commit to the run like we did today for the rest of the season (a game that we were losing almost the entire time), we'll be in decent shape in terms of overall balance.
Unless Romo proves unworthy of being a high end starting QB this year. Then we'd be fricked.

CHeck out this crazy play in the Raiders vs Jets (click here).
Maurice Jones Drew gets immediately hit in the backfield after receiving the handoff, and the ball bounces off his foot like a Pele bicycle kick that the QB catches.

I would also like to note that Seattle is basically just going to truck stick the shit out of the NFC. No chance anybody in this conference will be able to win in Seattle barring injury, and from what I saw out of a few teams today they will definitely be getting homefield again.

I don't mind us, the Cowboys fans, bashing our team and saying negative things about the game, team, our season, etc. But I have to admit I still hate having to see and hear people bash my team.
They can bash Jerry all day and it doesn't bother me, but the media, the Cowboy haters, the Eagles, Redskins and Giants commenting on our game yesterday, the prognosis for the season, the future of the organization still bothers me. F them.
All jumping on our defense being beyond awful even though 7 points were scored by the 49er defense and another 7 on a 1 yard drive set up by a turnover. Most of these people didn't even watch the game. Yes, our defense is not good, I know that, but come on.
Why do I even give a shit about stuff like this? It reminds me of growing up and absolutely hating going to school a day after a Cowboys loss knowing I'd have to hear it from everyone. That is what it was like being a Cowboys fan growing up outside of Texas.

NFC? Try NFL.
If they stay healthy, no one is beating them. In an age where everyone is finesse and passes the ball 100 times a game like the Broncos and Colts, the Seahawks are pounding teams into submission while playing old school football.
Their only true competition was the 49ers, and they'll be taking a step back this year (Don't let yesterday fool you).
Russell Wilson is only going to get better as the defense and running game remain dominant. And if Percy Harvin actually stays healthy this year?
Fugettaboutit.
