It's officially Dallas week!

I just don't see it there are way to many ? marks in your team if gibbs could fix all that in 2 weeks than we have a contest I don't say we're great we can shoot ourselves in the foot to many times but I still believe we're better.

And we sure need the W if we want to still be close to NY they pla ythe texans for Christ sake.

I dont think theres anyway we win this game,theres a chance we wont have portis or moss,even if we do we cant stop anybody on defense,Romo will have a field day against our D,we cant even get pressure on bledsoe,a mobile qb will eat our lunch,carolina's D actually can put pressure on the qb and he beat them.I was very impressed with romo,that didnt look like that was his first start,he was directing traffic like manning and calling audibles,he missed on some of his passes but he looked good,but thats why they play the game,theres a chance we will win,but I dont hold much hope

Honestly, our D will be perfectly fine. Don't put Romo in the hall yet. I mean holy shit, he only had to engineer a couple decent drives thanks to turnovers. We'll have both starting corners back. Portis and Moss will be fine. Don't worry about our defense. We'll see the defense we were supposed to see all season.

With Brunell having the problems he's having with his timing, we will be going 3 and out a lot! I don't care how good the D plays, if the offense can't sustain drives, the D will be on the field all day!

I haven't bought my tickets to Miami just yet. Romo looked good, but I still feel homocidal over that NY Giants loss.

Our D looked horrible, our secondary looked lost, our QB's looked lost.

I love that they came back and beat Carolina, but that is Carolina's M.O. - they show up big one week and then disappear the next, kind of like their All World DE Peppers.

This game should be close.

I don't think the Bledsoe / Brunell situations are similar.

If Brunell is:
Causing Sacks
Missing Blitzers
Unable to feel pressure
Going into a fetal position when Defenders are four steps away,

then you can talk about a QB switch.

Both sitauations are different yet similar. The difference is, Brunell will not take the sack. He will check down to the 3rd receiver when it's 3rd and forever! When given time, Bledsoe will get the ball down field. Our offense his based on timing. The WR's are open down field, but Brunell won't pull the trigger! Different situations, same result.................no production. However there is one huge difference. The Cowboys did the right thing and went with Romo.

Let's remember the turnovers the Panthers had near the red zone. The Cowboys didn't play THAT well.

What, are you kidding me!

Defense and Special Teams created those turnovers. The Panthers only had about 20 yards in the 4th quarter.

The skins will be dominated again this Sunday.

I've gotta disagree TMC, I thought the Cowboys looked pretty strong. The Panthers definately hurt themselves, but the Cowboys looked solid. Romo threw for 270 yards, the Cowboys racked up over 400 yards, and the Panthers were held to just 200 yards.

Continue to deflect blame from Brunell. Blame it on the defense, blame it on the routes, etc...

Completion percentage is meaningless when a good portion of those completions are five yards completions on 3rd and 8. David Carr has something like 70% completion percentage this season. That wonderful completion percentage does about as much good for the Texans as it does for the Skins... 2-5.

How is slightly over 200 yards a game something to boast about? That's servicable at best. Even less so when you consider that almost 400 of Brunell's passing yards this season have come from garbage time. And please spare me the garbage time theory. I already know it's just as tough to pass when the defense gives you a 15 yard cushion at the end of a blowout, as it is during the rest of the game...:laughing2

And I never said Gibbs was stupid, but he is wrong if he thinks Brunell is going to lead this team to a championship. Who's to blame for the playoff run last season? The defense was putting points on the board, Portis was banged up and it was on Brunell to make some plays. He couldn't step up to the challenge. He's basically been playing the same ever since, outside of the Jags game. And while everyone knows it's not all Brunell's fault, he's also the easiest problem to fix. They can't replace the entire defense, so change what you can, and see if it creates a spark. If it doesn't, what have you lost? A playoff spot? Yeah... sure...What problem? They aren't scoring 30 points a game? He isn't Peyton Manning? How long until you guys tear into Campbell for not putting up 30 PPG next season?

Why are you placing blame on Brunell on the first place? What's wrong with, "Hey, Brunell has an easy job. He throws a bunch of check downs, and makes the intermediate throw. But at least he's doing his part." I know you miss your boy, Pat Ramsey, but c'mon. Ripping on MB isn't going to bring him back.

And how come Brunell gets all these garbage yards, and no other QB in the league does. Garbage time yards are part of the game. It's part of a concept called "not giving up". All teams do it. Maybe not the Raiders, but you catch my drift.

The Texans D is worse than the Redskins. It's a common problem in the NFL. Bad D=losses. Seriously, you are making my point for me here.
