Exactly.

The excessive running down of the clock a few plays earlier is what put us in that bind to begin with and I think that hurt even worse than Schoon's false start because even at the 3 yard line with 20 seconds and one time out on 3rd down, we could only run so many plays in that situation.

I felt hypocritical as shit watch that sequence of plays. I was screaming slow down, and then a play later (after that Keystone Cops run off of at least 20 seconds) was screaming GET TO THE FUCKING LINE AND SNAP THE BALL! The players were confused because the HC was on over his head and had no idea what to do in that situation. Unacceptable.

I needed time to cool off and the gummies take time.

You don't post a ton, but when you do post, you make me last almost every time.

This team will never win anything as long as Jerry Jones is in charge. These guys are a traveling circus with no discipline. It’s a penalty fest every week and Jerry doesn’t put enough talent on the field to overcome it. It would be one thing if Jerry was good at acquiring talent but he’s not. We dont even contend for the division anymore. It’s a bad product. The Skins and Giants dont even have healthy QBs and we still can’t take advantage of it.

Well yeah, that's a given, but I have given up blaming him. I guess he beat me down. I am ambivalent towards Jerry at this point. I guess I have finally given in to the fact that that part of the equation will never change.

After today? You better believe it.

Ultimately I think they're six of one, half dozen of another, but I could see an argument for Schottenheimer being worse right now.

Dude. 10 fucking years. I am down on the BS (meant both ways) as anyone, but Garrett set us back an entire decade.

That graphic doesn't mean shit. Show me the clock on the same screen as the TO being called. There is no way you can convince me it was called in time until I see that.

Yay, more records.

Funny, but big picture this morning, I'm less mad at Schottenheimer, not more.

Was he to blame for last night, sure... He among others. But will anything change with the next guy? Nope. It'll just be another HC like him.

Will the next guy be hired because he's truly the best coach on the market? Nope.

Will he be able to practice the players as hard as possible in camp and get them ready in preseason games? Nope.

Will he be able to fire an obviously awful coordinator? Nope.

Will he change the brain trust's latest pet projects, like trading mid round picks for players other teams are getting rid of? Nope.

He'll just be the next stooge taking the bullets for Jerry on tough days Iike this one.

Happy Monday.
