I don't know... with that crappy dallas OL, how come we couldn't completely destroy romo? I know the playcalling on their side was built specifically to protect him and our D played ok, but a half competent offense or a better defense would have pulled this one out. we needed some fumble recoveries.
Romo does a good job at getting rid of the ball to begin with, and they totally designed their gameplan with an emphasis on quick passes.
The D did their job allowing only FGs. I think it's the O that needs to take more of the blame in this one. 16 points doesn't cut it.

We can't keep wasting trips to the red zone and come either empty handed or with just a FG.

I'm going with Sav Rocca. Minus the botched hold, I would give him MVP actually.
I thought McIntosh had one of his better games as a Redskin, especially early on.
I don't think Ware laid a glove on Rex when he lined up across from Trent.
I think we're being far too kind on Rocca. Yeah one mistake doesn't mean he's a complete bum, but that was a pretty huge mistake. Those 3 points were huge.

I agree. Grossman and Rocca are the two individual players who most singularly lost the game for us last night. Roccas mistake is FAR more unforgivable. Field position loss aside, We get those 3 points, then the cowboys would have HAD to go for the last touchdown instead of field goal... and i dont think this defense would have let them have it.

Orakpo was owning Doug Free all night long if I remember correctly.
Really?
What was Raks sack total?

Sacks are not always a measuring stick of how a rusher does against the competition.. He was Held twice, and had a handful of hurries, but Dallas was playing a lot of Max Protect, and it would of been difficult to get any sacks that we did.
