The Official Bash Brunell Cause It Turns You on Thread

I will say I'm disappointed with him running out of bounds on 3rd and 10 at the end of the game which set up Novak's kick. I felt that Brunell should have at least made an effort to dive forward if not to attempt to get the first down then to decrease the kicking distance for old Novak. Seems like he was more interested in not getting hurt than helping the team...on that particular play.

guys, stop bashing the defense, they won the game for us yesterday. Only 19 points from a team that really moved the ball against carolina last week. We messed with romo just enough to hurt his rythem. We also held jones under 100 yards rushing, and stopped dallas on their last few drives to win the game. BIG BIG improvement over the last few games. Brunell did what he normally does. He should have been picked off once, but other than that, he didn't lose the game. And at home, that works.

The D was improved somewhat, but we still had BIG problems on 3rd down and if it wasn't for TO's drop...

First of all, I don't consider myself a Brunell Basher. I just call it like I see it. The game was a big improvement over the last few games. He actually went downfield with a pass. That has always been my biggest gripe with him this year. He played a nice Gibbs type game. Although when he ran out of bounds at the end of the game, I thought that would 've been a great time to show, not just the world, but his teammates that he was tough and was leavin' it all on the field. Not to mention the fact that it would have made Novak's kick more "makeable". We all know that Novak needs the O to get as close as possible for him to even have confidence. BUT WE WON!!! Brunell had a huge hand in that. Touchdown pass to Chris Cooley....................NICE!

Was'nt Dallas like 70% on third down? SAD.

Yeah, our defense played GREAT except on third down. We got some decent pressure on Romo and run defense looked fairly improved. Just have to work on that third down defense.
