thePRO 78 Posted October 8, 2017 Yea it was the dumbest. So frustrating being a Cowboys fan. Just pound the ball. I almost wish Dak stopped at the 1 too. But you just have to score when it's that open. That pass should have 100% not happened though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brotherbock 349 Posted October 8, 2017 I almost wish Dak stopped at the 1 too. But you just have to score when it's that open. Agree about that. You go down at the 1 and then don't score and you look like an even bigger idiot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But you just have to score when it's that open. That pass should have 100% not happened though. I do wish he would have stopped at the 1 Smart players and coaches do stuff like that Remember a few years ago when We lost to Denver and Peyton told the RB to fall down at the 1? Not trying to blame Dak, there should have been less time on the clock because the play before that hsouldn't have been a pass Garrett just doesn't get it, he has to go Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BuschWack 56 Posted October 8, 2017 Zeke had one catch for 16 yards. That was too effective.. so naturally Garrett can't have more balls thrown to Zeke. Let's make it as difficult as possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BufordT 371 Posted October 8, 2017 I do wish he would have stopped at the 1 Smart players and coaches do stuff like that No and no. If they needed a FG to win then yes. When you need a TD you get it while you can. The mistake was not forcing GB to use their final TO before the TD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed. A run instead of that pass, if you don't get in, and they burn a TO. Of course, if you do get in with the run, you're in the same place. But I think not scoring when you could can easily backfire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
polecatt 401 Posted October 9, 2017 Well since we know the outcome hard to say it was the right thing, but still that's not what really lost the game It was Garrett and his bad play calling, etc. Again... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spinner 0 Posted October 9, 2017 Garrett is good for one or two losses every year. His minimum allotment being made today so early in the year, we can expect another one or two. But being Jerry's most prized puppet of all time, Garrett won't be leaving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thePRO 78 Posted October 9, 2017 Did anyone notice Dak hiking the ball with 11 seconds left on the play clock on that 2nd and 1 pass to Dez? Why are they snapping the ball so quickly when time was on our side and we needed to kill it more? That's on Dak and coaching... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vince44 202 Posted October 9, 2017 Such a puppet. Dave Campo and Chan Gailey were more believable as head coaches. Garrett will never get fired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sirensong 111 Posted October 9, 2017 Yeah he does He's one of the worst play callers I have ever seen The opposing defenses know what they are doing about 90% of the time before the play interesting, since he hasn't called plays since 2013. when he was calling plays, his offenses were ranked 3rd, 13th, 2nd, 7th, 11th, and 6th. both seasons he finished outside the top 7 were when romo missed most of the season, meaning his offenses were still better than average even with garbage backup QBs. so it's pretty weird that the defense knows what the play is 90% of the time, but garrett still had one of the best offenses in the league. it's best to learn what the hell you're talking about before hitting 'add reply' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzer 1,992 Posted October 9, 2017 I've been calling for Red's head for years now.. I'm not sure how many mismanaged, blown clock catastrophes it takes before Jerry wakes up and fires this idiot. How in the fock Red pulls this shiit again after the disaster of our last meeting with GB (in the Divisional game) - I have no idea. You nailed it, he's not learned a damn thing.. It's like GB knows they just have to sit back and wait until late in the 4th, they know sometime around then Jason Garrett will show his stupid ass and give it away........ Focking moron.

I know you've wanted him gone for awhile. I've been sort of indifferent. But now, I think it's time. Granted, the defensive players need to be able to stop a 2 minute drive to win a game if they have any hopes of winning in the playoffs They obviously don't have the talent to do that. But, the writing was on the wall during last year's playoff game before it happened and he did nothing about it. Then again yesterday he lets the same thing unfold all over again? It was like a nightmare I couldn't wake up from. The entire country could see this coming from a mile away and he's standing on the sidelines but can't figure it out? C'mon man! Isn't there someone on the coaching staff who could relay Aikman's game commentary to him or something? With about 3 minutes to go, my 10 yr old son, who plays QB for his elementary school flag football team, turned to me and said. "This is gonna be a repeat of last year's playoff game."

They rammed the ball right down GB's throat on that last drive for almost 9 focking minutes. They did exactly what they were supposed to, then pissed it all away by mis managing the clock.

polecatt 401 Posted October 9, 2017 interesting, since he hasn't called plays since 2013. when he was calling plays, his offenses were ranked 3rd, 13th, 2nd, 7th, 11th, and 6th. both seasons he finished outside the top 7 were when romo missed most of the season, meaning his offenses were still better than average even with garbage backup QBs. so it's pretty weird that the defense knows what the play is 90% of the time, but garrett still had one of the best offenses in the league. it's best to learn what the hell you're talking about before hitting 'add reply' No, he doesn't do anything, he doesn't call plays the guy he chose to call plays does that, Linehan does, he's under him so ultimately it's Garrett, that's why I blame Garrett, the play calling looks eerily similar to what it was under him You want to mention him not calling plays so it's not his fault, yet want to give him credit for the offensive ranking, how does that work? He's the head coach so it's all ultimately his fault, that was what I was implying but I see you are too dumb to figure that out They have one of the best offenses in the league because the have tremendous talent on offense, yet they have often struggled to win due to poor coaching, especially when they face a team with an offense as good or better, like Green Bay Go ahead and cheer him on if you want and watch the team flutter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not as silly as the guy acting like Jason Garrett is a good coach or play caller, Ray Lewis said it when he was OC, Dallas runs the most predictable sets, and I have heard others say that since, hell you can tell it when they line up He did get them to invest in the OL, which I give him credit for, but that's it, he's not the reason they have Dak or Zeke, or Dez, or Witten, or had Romo etc. so you're wrong about that too He learned that from Jimmy, which is the only thing he learned apparently The offense is pretty much the same one they ran with Romo when they had Murray, adding a read option play isn't exactly gutting the entire offense If you want to base the team on offensive rankings be my guest but the thing that matters is wins and Garrett doesn't produce the big ones, he loses them, this great season with Weeden and Casell you speak so hgihly of take a look at Dan Bailey's PAT attempts compared to other years, will tell you the offense sucked, so efficiency doesn't mean a thing if it doesn't produce points Stop supporting mediocrity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did you miss above where I asked why we re-signed Terrence Williams? Besides complaining about the personnel is more of an off season thing. Stuff the coaching staff does now is what can be fixed. The poor play calling is passing to Dez instead of running time off the clock. Did you forget the game 3 or 4 years ago where we lost a 21 pt 4th quarter lead to Green Bay because we passed instead of running it? Yeah, we put up a lot of points the past two games but we lost both didn't we. We had a chance to win both at the end but the offense couldn't get done what it needed to. Just like not being able to sit on double digit leads in both games because the offense went stagnant for a long period of time, mainly due to poor and predictable play calling. You know, maybe if that didn't happen we score 41 instead of 31 and we have two wins instead of two losses. We have a bad defense but that goes without saying, all the talent is on offense so it makes more sense to critique them when they screw up because we know we can't rely on the defense. Nothing at all wrong about any of that. You just don't have the critical thinking skills to put it together because I had harsh words for your man crush.

polecatt 401 Posted October 10, 2017 see this, polecatt? this is intelligent, fact-based critique. How would you know? All you know how to do is look at a box score, and you can't even do that right or you would have noticed in these games where the offense has been so spectacular, we haven't scored a point in the 3rd quarter, and scored 45 in the first half and only 16 in the 2nd total. That's brilliant offense I must say, in the first half that is. Pretty bad in the 2nd though, you know where we lost both games. I'm done talking about this, you clearly aren't as smart as you think you are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
