On that last drive I would've coached the safest and best way to win the game. I already deleted the game, but if Romo takes a knee three timrs there's less than 30 seconds left. Then pooch punt it. That eats up a few more seconds. Then pretty much game over. If you do what you guys suggest we do and we did the Lions get the frickin ball back with over a minute still. No way that should happen. Take the human element of a fumble or penalty 100% out of the equation and give your team the best chance to win.

No second guessing here. I kept yelling for them to not run it because I thought about a fumble.

It's really infuriating listening to Garrett during this post-game PC explaining the offensive struggles. It's the same story week-in, week-out.

"We didn't get into the rhythm we wanted"

"We couldn't get Tony enough time, that's a good defensive front"

Why the f*ck is this happening on a weekly basis? Who's fault is it that we're not establishing a "rhythm" on offense? Why is it that every defense can disrupt our plays before they develop?

I do think we are all going apeshit right now, but we witnessed one of the more epic collapses to close a game in NFL history.

And that isn't on a DC.

Or an OC.

But the guy in charge.

Oh yeah.

That guy.

If these darn people would just start "executing" we could be stacking wins on top another.

Well, again, calling three runs should never be considered "unsafe." It should have given us the option to either punt it to them with like 10 seconds left or kick off to them with like 30 seconds left.

I didn't even see the drive, but as bad as it was, I think we've had other losses that were more pathetic than giving up an 80 yard drive in 1:02.

Might as well just lose out at this point and be done with the Garrett experiment. I know there's more problems than just JG but he is definitely a liability who is in way over his head.

And yeah, like everyone else I'm calculating how we'll give the ball back with :30-:35 left and then we hold. But seriously, we'd probably have been called for holding even if we knelt on the ball.

Just unreal, +4 turnovers, only 7 pts given up in 3 quarters, two double digit leads in 4th quarter. Take over with lead in final 2:00, and still lose.

4-4... .500 .. that is this teams peak, year after fricking year.

Well, you tell me what it's about? This isn't good enough.

But I don't want Mike Zimmer here either.

At this point, I'll take Ken Jeong.

There's been no progress with Garrett. None. What are you holding on to?

There's a better chance that Ken Jeong will make something happen than Garrett magically putting it together at this point.

I actually don't have a single problem with the playcalling there.

You run 3 times, take the clock down to 35 seconds or so, and that's the game.

You're not supposed to lose in that scenario but if there is a way to lose a game, even in the most unbelievable of ways, these Cowboys will figure it out.

Being restrained by Witten at the end...you just can't do that.

Yeah, Witten was like, get your head in the game, we still have 12 seconds, put your helmet on.

Bryant was just popping off, yelling at people.
