(((Cowboys vs Packers)))


Recommended Posts

What are yall's thoughts? I believe we can win in GB if continue to play like we have been. We have 10 players listed as questionable for tomorrow, but GB may not have much of a running game with their two main backs injured. I believe Mo can shutdown Nelson, we just need to get to Rodgers early and often! Go Cowboys!!!

Cowboys look really good again today so far.  I still maintain that Romo is the better qb if healthy, but barring a major setback dak has earned the right to see this season out.  He's been so good because the Cowboys have been so balanced, but he manages the game really well and he's starting to make some tougher throws as well.

Cowboys kicked that Packer arse today. Dak and Zeke are just amazing. I can't think of enough superlatives to describe them. The whole team is playing like a machine and I think it is because you have two rookies taking the NFL by storm. Winning is infectious. Fourth straight game that Zeke has 130 yards rushing. No other rookie has done that. Dak set the rookie record for completed passes without an INT. Only thing I still see that we need to improve on is pass rush. Rogers was back there pitching a tent and roasting weiners. Could have lit a cigarette if he wanted. All in all a very competitive game. Dak and Zeke fear no one. Dak was asked pregame what he thought of Lambeau field. He said it was cool but that he had played in LSU and Alabama.......two tough places to play.

Herm Edwards made a good point in the post game comments. This team is young and really doesn't know Romo as the QB; he really hasn't been the full time starter since 2014. Dakota is consistent and this has the entire team playing at a high level because he is the only starter for more than two games in a row any of them really know. The rest of the components were there...they just needed leadership. Dakota does that.

To me, this was the game that swayed my mind about Dek keeping the starting spot. The past two weeks Dallas has played two pretty good defenses and the offense has handled the job. But going to Green Bay and beating them like they did was surprising. Last year we hurried Romo back and he got hurt again, this year Romo can get 100% healed before he comes back. At some point Romo will have to play, will it be a start or come in and finish a game. I think he needs to start so you can see him play and let him get game speed. Then bring Dek in the rest of the game.  Let Romo start two or three games and each game increase the time he plays, then evaluate and make a decision. JMO! Go Cowboys!!!

I agree somewhat because i have been a Romo fan and always taken his side in lots of the losses, even some of his late game INTs. I would say that he shouldn't' have been put in the position to throw because earlier failed plays should have put us ahead. But now, he has become a very fragile QB and opposing teams know that. He can still make the throws but he is very limited in his mobility.

Dak is not just keeping the ship afloat, he is winning games even the experts didn't think he could win, and he did it with punctuation. Backup QBs are counted on to have us at 3-3, maybe even 4-2, but we're 5-1 and if not for Williams' brain fart against the Giants, we could be 6-0. Dak also runs some plays that Romo just cant do, like the read option.

I wouldn't want to be the one to make this decision, but every player comes to a point in their career when they have to pass the reins to a younger guy. Sad but true. 

Side note: Zeke had 157 yards against the #1 rated run defense who was averaging giving up only 42 ypg. Awesome!!

I think its a little too early to choose. A lot depends on how long it takes for Romo to actually return healthy without rushing it, and how well Dak continues. All too often the whole game was on Romo's shoulders. He may do better with a balanced game plan and Zeke helping to tote the load. With that being said, if Dak continues to play well and Romo's recovery takes him deep into the season Dak should keep the job.

    • The locals have almost finished firing the first ever Speaker of the House from Southeast Texas upon direct order of Trump and his minions.   It's a sad day... Locals have decided that being represented by the most powerful man in the House didn't mean anything.... they'd rather a political novice to represent this part of SETX.  And why is that?  He wasn't MAGA enough for them.  Who cares that it will hurt locally... What Trump says, goes.     Just yesterday I saw Trump on television demanding that we fire Phelan... How he's a RINO, weak on the border, etc... why?  Because he wouldn't overlook the criminal actions done by Ken Paxton, one of Trump's key supporters in the effort to overturn the 2020 Election and allow Trump to remain in office despite the will of the voters.   Trump never even mentioned Covey's name, and I doubt he would recognize Covey if Covey walked up with a cup of coffee.  Who cares that it's bad for SETX?  Not the R voters from SETX!   Then I saw Covey's preacher on a different ad tell a bald face lie.  Why should Phelan be fired?  "He put Democrats in positions of power in the House."  Really?  That's been the position of BOTH parties for as long as anybody can remember.  They ALWAYS give the minority party committee chairmanships.  But in 2022 the Rs decided that the practice should stop.  Democrat voters should not be allowed a voice in the crafting of legislation if there is a single majority Republican seat in the House, according to the Rs.  Representative Government?  Never heard of it, huh? Never did I believe that we'd have an abortion ban, constitutional carry, huge cuts for school property taxes, and Texas law enforcement being greenlit to enforce immigration law.  But it all happened while Phelan was speaker.  Without a doubt, the most conservative Speaker, ever.  But still a dirty RINO for not being MAGA enough.  It would be funny if it weren't true.   I've been following politics long enough to remember when Rs couldn't get elected in Texas... I'm confident that we're headed back that direction.  I mean, it's obvious that with population shifts we'll be turning blue eventually.  I think that the behavior of the leadership of the Republican Party is going to cause that shift sooner than expected.  I won't be surprised to see Democrat Senators and possibly even a governor elected within 12 years.  Maybe less.  The Rs will be a party apparatus without a voting base behind them.
