The Cowboys don't have a QB problem, it's all on the OL, they continue to be horrible. There were guys running free at the QB all night, not even blocked!
Benching Bledsoe is only tossing fuel on the fire at this point and Parcells is basically saying they're screwed.

What's forgotten is that Romo should have never been the heir apparent in the first place. That should have been Drew Henson but he couldn't even make the roster.

I don't think the Redskin situation and the Cowboy situation are the same.
Bledsoe was K-I-L-L-I-N-G us.
Int's at the worst time.
Horrible pocket sense.
Getting rattled and having his balls drop - haha - by the end of tough games.
Of the four sacks he took in the first half one was him holding the ball for about 85 secs.
On the unblocked Strahan Sack you could see that Drew felt the pressure and started to go down while Strahan was still four steps away!
I wanted bledsoe to pull it together and go out like Elway.
He ain't Elway.
The whole team played bad last night. They all looked like crap. The Oline was a culprit but the TE's blocked NOBODY!!
Witten was Bulled by Arrington, Strahan, and wiffed on Pierce in a series that led to an INT instead of a Flea Flicker TD to TO.
None of those guys weigh more than Witten. Strahan is down to 255 to stay quick. Arrington and Pierce run at 245-55.
If Brunell is costing you games, then you need bench him. Simple.

Romo and his mobility let us get out of permanent Max protect and maybe Witten can catch some balls, because he isn't blocking well at all. He needs to block for maybe 20% of the plays.

I've seen Brunell do similar, and he DOESN'T look down the field for the long pass, at least Bledsoe does that much.

I hate to say it, but he's right. At least the Cowboy's defense has been up to the task. Remember, we're likely sitting at 4-3 with all of our starters playing the season instead of this injury-plagued, scrub-bunch we've been putting out there.

no just the fact that they made a QB change. this will be better for dallas in the long run, as it would if we made the change.
thats what i meant
I remember hearing that when we replaced Brunell with Ramsey. :Flush:

Brunell can still scramble and pass accurately. Bledsoe is like a giant statue, a colorblind statue.
Brunell = 90.4 QB rating (ranked 11th in NFL), 7TDs, 3 INTs, 1465 yards
Bledsoe = 69.2 QB rating (ranked 28th in NFL), 7 TDs, 8 INTs, 1164 yards, 1 lost fumble
yeah but in how many attempts? Brunell scrambles and throws accurately 5yds down the field. that's not the Al Saunder's offense, thats Brunell's reaction to getting blitzed. which is why every team does so.
again, so Brandon Llyod and ARE were brought here just to be decoys? no, Brunell is smart enough to not get a turnover or a sack, but he's not quick or confident in his arm enough to make teams PAY for blitzing. the direct result is the least amount of points scored in the NFC east.

Who would the Skins rather face in two weeks
Bledsoe or Romo?
I would say Bledsoe because he looks shell shocked.
