With this December Eagle demon conquered, all bets on home performance are off. They've crossed over now.

basically agree. good enough to finally get the monkey off their back and win the East, but not a real threat to win the NFC, even with HFA. sadly, "root for a loss so Garrett gets canned" is no longer realistic.

Someone really needs to figure out what the problem is with the home stadium. Get rid of all the extra hoopla bullshit, the museum shit, the pole dancers. Make it a football stadium, not an amusement park.

Well one of the answers should be obvious Sheik.

Romo was in no condition to play vs SF, he didnt play vs Arizona and like SF, really wasnt in much condition to play vs Philly on Thanksgiving.

I know some would say thats an excuse, but Romo has been sensational in almost every game this yr except for SF & Philly (and to a certain extent Washington). I think we'd have definitely beaten Arizona with a healthy Romo.

Its not just this year and its just not Romo. We literally have no home field advantage.

When players complain that home games sound like road games, its a problem.

Yeah I saw him grimmacing as he left the field. Hopefully he's ok for next week but if not, the Colts front 7 is pretty lousy. With the way Randle is running he should be able to have enough success.

I'd prefer we rested Murray and gave Randle a tryout .

In fact, last night was the first game in a long time where I was impressed how we handled the RB rotation. Randle and Dunbar both got a number of carries.

And Murray can eff off with his bitching about getting breathers. Its not about your record, you me first dipshit.

This has kind of been my mantra all season. Unfortunately its no longer a reality. The zombie clapper is coming back.

Enjoy this season, because no Garrett coached team will get 11 wins in the future. I firmly believe that.

Oh that part is definitely true.

Although if the team is playing really well, the place can be ok. The atmosophere for those two Philly games in 2009 (season ender and playoffs) was great. Though that was the exception since this heap of shit was opened.

Someone changed Flectcher's Wikipedia page last night.
It has since been changed back.

Great game last night. After Philly took the lead, The Cowboys showed me what they have showed all year. They fight back, very resilient group. Romo’s pass protection was great. You cant understate how well this offensive line is playing. They are the reason the Cowboys can win on the road.

The defense is scares me, you dont know if they are going to give up an 80 yard play or create a turnover. They are the wild card in the whole thing.

Garrett still annoys me with some of this management. Stupid challenge at the goal line. Harris not back to field a punt.

Colts game is going to be tough. This is the best QB the Cowboys will have faced this season. Their defense is suspect. I have no idea who wins.

Yep. I still say Luck isn't as perfect as people make him out to be -- he will throw it to you and fumble it -- but there's no doubt he's the best QB we've faced, along with Wilson.

He's going to put up points. At the very least he's not going to stumble around like a drunk man falling over his coffee table in the middle of the night like Sanchez.

He will turn it over, but what worries me about Luck is that he plays for 60 minutes. Cowboys will need to get pressure on him. TY Hilton is fast, Carr needs to step up. Wayne looks washed up. Colts dont have much of a running game, so thats good.

No lead is safe against Luck. That's what worries me going into this game with how we handle big leads.
