A win is a win I guess but man was that ugly... Romo with some stupid plays in this game but showed some toughness coming back after that hit he took to the head. Also, Church is out for the year with a torn achilles, probably means more playing time for Mike Jenkins, uhoh.
Sure hope Garrett or somebody on the offensive staff gets on this offensive line for all the penalties, never saw so many false starts from a team playing at home :fp: Good thing Tampa's offense is beyond awful so Dallas was able to overcome it.

Ugly covers it. I want to say the D looked okay but I think Tampa's offense sucked so bad it's tough to tell. Brutal game to watch but glad we got a win. What really sucks is the Eagles should be 0-3.
This was just a terrible game...didn't Tampa put up 30 points or something like that against the giants. I'm going to give the D credit here, after Seattle last week I think they came to play, especially missing three starters and losing Church...
This offense is just terrible...Garrett needs to give up the play calling, he's not good at at.
A win is win I suppose...but overall this team does not look good.

Gotta hand it to the defense this week. They certainly delivered with multiple injuries at safety. Offense needs to get it going and quit the mental mistakes but the defense is very encouraging. As mentioned already, a win is a win.

Agree...the defence was excellent and Ware was bringing it, I thought Jenkins played very well....he may have to play safety . Until the offence quits getting so many before the snap penalties its hard to say how good they are, and if they don't pass protect better Orton will be the starter sooner or later because Romo will be sidelined. I still think Garrett needs to give up the play calling.
Overall my impression after 3 games is they'll be hard pressed to win 7 games...this offensive line is just terrible and no doubt Free is the worst of the bunch and he's no better at the right side than left side.
To me it's unfortunate...because you would have hoped moving in on 2 complete seasons with Garrett you'd see some hope...I see hope on the D but on the offensive side of the ball they just look terrible and thats his strong suit .

You might want to take that comment back Rob Ryan's defense looks to be #1 in the league after GB and Seattle play tonight. They are only giving up 137 passing yards per game and 113 rushing yards. I just hope the run d improves a bit more once Ratliff gets back.

I'm not taking it back...he's over rated...against Seattle who was using a rookie QB who is vertically challenged he barely blitzed. The week before Arizona was extremely effective blitzing against Seattle. The defence has by far more talented players than the offence and needs to be consistent. Yesterdays performance was more about player pride than Ryan...guys like Ware, Lee, Carr etc. were embarrassed with how they performed against Seattle and stood up and delivered a good performance.
Now if the offensive line could ever step up from three weeks of embarrassing play then maybe this team has a chance.
Ryans D were never very consistent in Oakland or Cleveland and the D has been extremely inconsistent so far in his 1 plus years in Dallas.
Why every time there is a regime change in Dallas do Cowboy fans think it should take 4-5 years to see improvement? There are plenty examples of NFL teams who turn around quickly...this team will never win underJones...Jones has convinced himself that he built the early 90's team...until he realizes that Jimmy Johnson was responsible for those teams this team is doomed for failure.

BINGO!!!
I say clean house and bring in gruden or a young up and coming coach to coach this team and draft barkley. This team has the pieces on both sides of the ball, just need a QB that will lead them to battle win or loss.

I had to laugh today when I read the ESPN Insider preview for the game against Chicago. The "Scouts" they have preview the game gave Dallas the edge for head coach. They must think Lovie Smith is really dumb.

No kidding...afterall he has taken the bears to a SB...Garrett's never been to the playoffs as a head coach...and if that O line don't start playing better he'll be lucky to win 7 games.

Maybe they were referring to Lovie's defensive background (every post he has held has been a defensive position or coordinator job) and Garrett's offensive mindedness.
Personally I'd take Lovie in the matchup. And depending on which Jay Cutler shows up, and whether the Cowboys have improved their offense (line especially) any, we could be looking at a defensive showdown. Which means Garret is out of the equation anyway and it's down to Lovie and Rob Ryan. I'll take Lovie in that matchup as well.

This franchise is so over rated...every year we are lead to think this team is talented enough to contend...sad part half the talking heads have bought Jones sales jobs.

Bears are not that good. And neither are the cowboys...
Actually unlike the Cowboys the bears do have a pretty good defence...better running back, better wide receiver, better O line and most importantly better coach by far.

Doug Free...really...he was terrible last year...even worse this year...some guys when you hand them big money...well what can be said.
Either Witten is still suffering from the spleen injury or he's slipping.
