Has anyone explained the reasoning behind completely shutting down the running game in the 2nd half? Murray was averaging close to 8 yds per carry in the first half, then only 13 carries in the entire second half. If I've ever seen a team purposely give a game away, I saw it Sunday. It's inexplicable how you would not manage a game clock on the ground with that lead, instead of stopping it with each incompletion.
I'm no Cowboys fan by any stretch, and as a gambler have had my share of bad beats, but if I had lost money betting that mess I'd want an answer.

they say the calls go thru the oc, to garrett and on to romo.
i think they really come from jerry jones. seriously, tho..it's a lot of fun to poke at romo, garrett....but doesn't much of the blame for the loss belong on the D? a team who scores that many points should be able to win. why was the pack able to make up so much ground? to hell with garretts job, what about kiffin? why they moved away from what got them to such a lead is beyond me. all they had to do was play footballs version of four corner keepaway. run the ball, run the clock, protect the lead. and when rex ryan gets let go, call him to be the new DC.

In this instance, the Cowboy's D is a non-issue if you manage the clock. GB had at least 3 more possessions than they should have. GB doesn't get back into the game if they don't have the ball. Tampa Bay's (worst in the NFL) offense could have held that lead up. It's game management 101. If Romo is overruling the OC and the head coach by calling his own plays without any check and balance, the entire lot of 'em need to go. I find that hard to believe. Garrett will be back, Jones is loyal to a fault like that. He was Aikman's backup and is a Cowboy for life. He'd have to have a repeat of this year in order to find the hot seat next season. Just wish our beloved Skins were in a position to take advantage of it....lol

Cowboys are a total joke. They would get streamrolled at home by Carolina, New Orleans or San Fran.... At least Philly is a little intriguing.
I hope GB gets in. Best QB on the planet deserves to be in the tournament.

as for the game, so much blame to hand out, to so many. both offense and defense share blame, because GB should never have been able to accomplish so much when they had the ball, and all the offense had to do was burn time and hold onto the ball. both sides failed dismally. and i loved it!
