2)Giving up FOUR long bombs to TO, 3 of them were pretty much the exact same play. I realize ST wasn't there and all, but GW is a smart man and our players are decent enough to not get beat by the same player the same way 3 times. I really wouldn't mind Witten or Crayton getting a big TD over the middle, but you can't leave TO that open so many times. This really falls on GW. I am sure with ST back that will be less of an issue, but still it is unacceptable.

Point two really hurts me just because I know GW is better than that. On a whole I am just hurt because I know we could have won the game. My hat is off to JC for an awesome game and for Saunders/Gibbs for growing a pair and letting JC do more in the offense. We should run no-huddle more in beginning of the game.


Also please NO Debbie-downers. I do not mean for this to be a pessimistic thread. No "Gibbs/GW should be fired" "we suck" etc etc. And if you want to mention another point, just back it up. I will negative reputation the hell out of you guys if you ruin this thread by being pessimistic and posting crap . That is all.

Sometimes I think Gibbs has lost his nerve in his old age! That 50 plus FG that we missed on a 4th and one was a killer. You really need to look at the up side if you do make it vs the down side if you don't from that far! Making it is all well in good but if you don't that field postion to a Good Dallas O is just asking for it. Kicking a punt would have been better but missing was a kill at that place on the field. Really missing it was if we went for it but didn't make it! Sometimes to beat a team better then you[Dallas is just that] you need to make big plays and your big time coach needs to lead the way! MR Gibbs for the rest of the season think out side the box and go with what made you the Hall of Fame Coach you are. What do you have to lose? More games we have done that the pass two week very well!!!!
