Wow, I have never taken a nearly a month between posts here during the season. Why this time ? Plenty of reasons to be honest. Laziness on my part, disgust at the way the season has turned out, anger at the team of quitters, I got a new laptop and have spent way too much time getting it the way I like it, ( ironically I wanted it to be set up just like my OLD laptop.
Anyway, a lot has happened since my last diatribe. Wade is gone. I am a bit sad about that since I liked him, but I totally see and understand why he had to go.
Jason Garrett is the new coach. Odd that one of the key members of this disaster is now looked at to lead them out of it. I understand that for now it’s for the best. No way a new coach comes in at this point . Throw in the fact there may not be a season next year and I can see not hiring a coach to not coach.
I could be like a lot of fans and be all giddy that JG is now the man. They point to the 2 wins and the fact that the Boys didn’t quit on Turkey Day as proof that JG has it figured out. I am not so sure. Looked like the same Cowboys we have seen all year in the opening quarter. Looked a lot like the same Cowboys on all the fumbles, bad snaps, no snaps and giving up crucial 3rd down plays.
I guess what I am trying to say is, Hold On. Lets wait and see. I still think it’s our players more than it’s the coaches. I think the players are only playing harder now because they have seen the axe fall and don’t want to be the next one to go. To me there is no reason to lock onto JG as the future answer right away.
As for yesterdays game, if you are being honest, it probably was a lot closer than you expected. It still broke my heart to see them come all the way back, take the lead late and then lose it again. I felt so bad for Roy 11, but at the same time I was so mad at him for not holding onto that ball. It seems to be just one of those years where nothing seems to go right.
Anyway, stick around, it should be interesting and sooner or later I am sure I will go off on a rant. For now I am just bewildered.
later Poke
