Cowboys at Lions | Week 8 Game Day Chatter Thread | 10/27/2013

It is too bad they play for one of the more average HCs in the NFL.

 

[Tony D]

I don't see how kneeling takes anymore time off when Detroit was calling timeouts.

They had no timeouts left.

I'll replace him right now. Find me someone better.

Nope. I'm talking about none of these 'legacy' coaches like Parcells being available. All you have is taking a chance on an assistant head-coaches or college coaches.

How many years of Garrett do you go before it's time?

I respect your opinion even if you say 50 years, I'm just curious to your answer.

Unfortunately we still the Vikings and Raiders and probably 2 more wins besides that in us. Then we can be 8-8 and just a "play or two" away from being 9-7 or 10-6 and a playoff team. More JG, more status quo, more .500 football, more wasted years. yay!

That's how I can take solace in a loss...especially one on how the team was prepared.

I am just hoping this means Garrett gets fired.

It is all we have to hope for anymore.

The idea the shithead coach Jones hired getting canned.

 

[Smitty]

Romo was bad again too...the protection was not as bad as he acted it was.

So glad we gave him $100 million for the next, like, decade.

I don't have a problem with running a simply running play like most teams do in that same situation 9 times out of 10.

The problem is that the Cowboys found a way to fuck it up as they often do.

Then the defense found a way to blow it as well.

It's Tony Romo-era Cowboys football to a tee.

I hate Garrett's guts and can't wait to see him gone, but I can't knock him at all for that final series. The Cowboys choked like they always do and that's that.

On the bright side.....at least we're halfway through another 8-8 campaign which will hopefully be Garrett's last in Dallas.

 

[Smitty]

I don't see how kneeling takes anymore time off when Detroit was calling timeouts.

It would have eliminated the potential for a hold on the third down when Detroit had no time outs left.

He hates the owner and everything he does....yet appreciates the doglike devotion.

But....but..you can't find someone better, but this guy thought there was a better HC, somewhere, anywhere, better than Wade.

 

[Smitty]

Right.

So just because there isn't anyone better in Schmitty's mind, does that mean you're just going to settle for this shit for 100 years straight?

That's just dumb.

I didn't say there's no one better, I said "not just anyone is better."

There are approximately half the coaches in the league who are just as bad or worse.

Just another in the many bad deals handed out by Jones.

Not if they win the division with that record.

I'm in agreement. Dude, it don't matter. We would've fumbled the snap on a QB kneel or allowed a kickoff-return TD or blocked FG returned for a TD.

I mean, my fucking god, I have to research these obscure rules to see how it is we lost.

I'm waiting for the day we lose a game on a dropkick.

I don't think I have an answer to that because it's not realistic.

At some point sooner than 50 years, we will bottom out, or an obvious better name will be available. It happened just last year with Reid. It may happen again this year.

That it pretty damn bad.

3 knees eliminates most of the chances for a choke though.

 

[1bigfan13]

BTW....I don't care what anyone says, I was happy to see Dez pissed off and chirping on the sidelines.

I'll take that any time over watching Romo and Garrett's passive asses watching solemnly as the offense sleepwalks through another week of football.

I'm glad at least one guy was pissed off about the lackluster effort of the team.

Also, I think that's the only time I've seen Witten fired up on the sideline. Sad part is he wasn't fired up about the team's poor effort. It looked like the only reason he got fired up was because his BFF was taking heat.
