Even when we won the 2 playoff games against him, he was great.
I know....its insane.
The sad thing to that is why can't Big Red ever draft a great QB that leads to 10-15 straight years of winning?
This franchise has been unable to do this in it's entire history, aside from Lomax and Plummer. But it wasn't for the lack of trying. Timm Rosenbach and Matt Leinart were supposed to be long term QBOTF but Rosenbach got hurt and Leinart fell under the spell of Whiz. The funny thing is that the longest tenured QB this franchise has ever had, Jim Hart, was undrafted.The sad thing to that is why can't Big Red ever draft a great QB that leads to 10-15 straight years of winning?
But hey, if you never try drafting that kid it won't ever happen. Ugh
it's weird to see two kickers trade 50+yard field goals in the clutch when others in the same league can't kick extra points consistently.
ESPN reports superbowl tickets dropped by 20%
should be fun to watch
Yeah, a lot of people wanted to see Rodgers in clutch time. Not to mention wanting to watch Dallas lose.
sort of like the cardinals/packers game last year?
dallas moved the dial a lot this year. I think there are more people that watch them wanting them to fail. you'd think you'd see that more with the patriots.
I agree with all of that. It was a strange year in the NFL. I never had Dallas in the super bowl(always hoped for a surprise) I felt their defensive front would be roughed up in the playoffs against good offensive fronts.The Packers where already on the decline last year but where still a stronger team than the injury ridden team the Cowboys faced. The Cardinal defense was a shadow of itself last year after it lost Honey Badger and was exposed in the following week against Carolina. Still, both teams fielded a better defense than what the Cowboys and Packers offered recently. Dallas was ranked something like 18th overall in defense this year with the 22nd pass rush. The Packers did them a favor by ousting them from the post season or being then torn to shreds by a Falcon offense which did not reside in the NFC East where the Cowboys feasted on weak opponents. Anyone who thought Dallas had a legit shot this year going to the Superbowl is getting lost in the hype... now in the coming years if they can improve that defense, they should be great for years to come unless Prescott suffers the sophomore jinx which is still a possibility (see Vince Young, Josh Freeman and RGIII for reference)
I won't argue that one. for Dallas this was the best game (from an excitement level) that they have been in for decades(playoffs wise). Then again they haven't had many lol.
Once again I agree. Spot on. Next year will be tougher for them. the quest is to get back into the playoffs which won't be easy. I don't know if they can without upgrading that defense as you pointed out. They have a lot of holes everywhere.
