14 points because their QB was intercepted on awful throws.

I mean, Romo couldn't even throw the football when he tore us to shreds with dumpoffs to Barber. Couldn't even grip the thing. 6 yards per play for the Cowboys on offense in that game. If not for the two turnovers the defense got, which certainly weren't because of Blache's scheme, we're talking 24-10, maybe 28-10. It was that bad.

Sorry, if a coordinator is unprepared to defend Byron Leftwich, unprepared to take away the passes a QB with a broken thumb can make, unprepared to adjust after Eli Manning beats 8 consecutive blitzes in the rain, he can't coach for a playoff team. We could have won all those games by playing smarter. Who knows if we would have. But we made it easy on them. By my standards, that's grounds for dismissal.

And I realize the total product has been good. We've played some really incompetent passing games. This pass defense is closer to 2006 than 2007, and I was frustrated with Grilliams after 2006.
