And next to nothing was about preparation and leadership.

We had a play where Bryant was a freak and we had a great independent play from Hatcher/Lee.

There is a lot more about managing a football game than that.

Overall, this was not a team who went into San Diego respecting the opponent, nor did we look especially intelligent in how we attacked their clear and oh so fucking obvious weaknesses.



Working with the Jones family doesn't mean you coach just as stupidly as they would on game day.

I get it if we are not as talented, have injuries etc.

San Diego was clearly out matched today. On every front you could imagine.

Yet...we lost.

Why was that?

It is not about being arrogant about Dallas' talent.

You cannot tell me for a fucking minute that OL we faced was quality. Nor that secondary.

We just had no plan whatsoever and thought they would lay down for the great Dallas Cowboys who just kicked the shit out of the Rams.

I don't know how to reply in pieces, but it sounds as though you are blaming the players as well. Facing a poor OL, where was the pressure, where were the sacks, the turnovers? Again, SD had the ball for 12 mins in the 3rd quarter and the last two mins of 2nd quarter.

Again, I want the name of a coach who will work with Jones and succeed. The last two I remember were Jeff Fisher and Mike Holmgren. Do you have an alternative?

Can we finally shitcan Garrett for this? We didn't even look like we had any interest in being at this game, and that includes RedPubes. That putz is directly responsible for that.

We all know Jerry is a cancer. But it's only compounded by hiring guys like Garrett, Wade, Campo, Switzer, etc.

No doubt it'd be tough trying to win with Jerry as GM. But no one can convince me any of the above were anywhere near the best HC's that could've been hired. Garrett's in over his head but problem is Jerry doesn't have the desire to hire a quality HC.

Correct.

If anyone expected these clowns to go 2 games over 500, you are asking for a case of depression.

What has Garrett ever done to warrant such blind devotion?

I don't have blind devotion, but I am ready to see how the season develops. I just do not think there are many coaches who are difference makers and I am willing to give Garrett until the end of this season. I am still on board. I think he is really trying to build something, which is not easy in Dallas.

Here's a hint for you: whose job is it to get players to do things they have the ability to do?
