Why do these damn coaches just make football so damn hard?

Just why?

We killed them on the opening drive because of the running game. We're 4-1 because of the running game.

So what do we do when we get a gift and a chance to build a double digit lead early?

We abandon the run.

Fricking morons.

I think we tried to turn Dak into Romo on that drive and went too aggressive for the kill shot.

If Dak is going to take that long to read he will have to move out of the pocket.

Just like the playoff game in 2014, this is a HUGE opportunity missed.

We should've gotten a FG at least, and instead we get nothing with a drive that started inside the 40.
Yep, that was a big missed opportunity.

It's the Jason Garrett way. One bad run? It clearly isn't working. TIME TO PASS!!

It's not even about one bad run, it's that we never lined up in a run look on any of the 4 plays in that series.

How do you explain making the decision to do that?

This is the kind of game where I don't think our defense on 1st and 2nd matters. Whether 3rd and 10 or 3rd and 50, it's about our rush getting to Rodgers or not.

So damn lucky that his leg hits the ball as Lee is trying to catch it.
