    Here's a sad handshake to the Redskins fans. You beat us fair and square. We had a chance until that final INT. Romo played the second half with cracked ribs. For one game, we had 18 of 22 starters out, and had two guys starting who were on the couch a week before. Don't get me wrong, we'll always hate each other, but I offer a postgame handshake; you beat us fair and square

    "Beat us" ??

    Romo lost the game for Dallas.

    Everyone else on the Cowboys team -- especially the defense with so many injuries -- came through.

    I'm wondering how long it will take for Jerry Jones to realize that Romo's "moments of brilliance" weighed against his now legendary blunders clearly show it's time for Romo to ride off into the sunset.

    Agreed, Romo was an F. Three INTs, including the game loser and a 55.6 passer rating. The OL except for Tyron at LT (B-) was an F. We never figured out the blitz; Garrett was an F, his playcalling was near unwatchable. Once again, he showed he cannot get his players to play their best football when it's the most important game of the season. Our MLB allowed runs up the middle all damn game: F. Miles Austin caught not one pass and was injured again: F. Even DeMarcus Ware was an F, with only one tackle and one QB hit. Our kicker went 27-27 in kicks 50 yards or less, he was an A. Old reliable TE Jason Witten was an A. Our punt returner was great. I predicted 8-8 before the season started, and truthfully with all the injuries, we didn't do so bad to get the eight wins, and were in a position to make the playoffs with 3:30 left in the season. Trying not to swear.

    Giving a handshake to my much hated redskins was just me trying to be classy after a horrible loss.

    I think Jerry has it in his thick scull that Tony is a "franchise QB"...I'd be happy with a "real QB" myself

    The most important things in life are good friends and a good bullpen...not necessarily in that order

    That's the same thick-headedness the Jets have with Sanchez. If I was in charge, I'd have told Coach Ryan to stick his head up that GM I just fired's ass -- you're fired too and don't forget to take you damn ego with you as you leave.

    Agreed agreed agreed. Didn't even need their best game, and please fire the GM (how the hell can you fire Tom Landry so ungraciously?). Guess I'm a seahawks fan next week. Dammit. Oh well, at least we can watch the Stars, wait, dammit. Well, there's the Rangers, wait dammit. Bad year for Dallas fans.

    This is New England Patriots country. But that's a mixed blessing. Tom Brady and the Patriots are so talented that they can literally wipe the field with any NFL team any day of the week.

    The problem is, it's like they only do it when they feel like it.

    "Oh sh!t! -- it's five minutes into the fourth quarter and we're losing by 20, we'd better get busy!" Then, "Oops, we lost by 3 points -- we tried

    Ya, right ...

    That'd be tough to take roth. I'd much rather have a bad team that tries hard, than a talented group of prima donnas. We've had our share of the latter in Dallas. I never gained more respect for Emmitt Smith than when he finished the game with a separated shoulder. As a running back. That's going to get tackled every play. In a year when we weren't going anywhere anyway.

    I love a class act. Emmitt Smith is one. And you know, so is RGIII -- I've been really impressed with the kid.

    Chris is referring to our old reliable TE, who played the week after breaking his jaw with his face wired shut. Another class act. Never got caught transporting 200lbs of weed across state lines, or found in a bar with two coked up hookers, either. A buddy of mine saw Michael Irvin in a bar in Austin, the week after he got caught being unfaithful to his wife, in a bright red suit with two hookers. I also love the class acts, which is why I want our GM fired.

    The reverse of the class act is Michael Vick, who won't play with a hangnail injury. If I were king of the NFL, he would have never come back after what he did to his dogs.

    Wow simnettpratt, this isn't first time you posted like this is it

    JK - I have the right to make fun of any football fan being a lifetime Bengals fan myself.

    I'm not a Romo fan but I'll give him credit where due. Yes, he lost that game. I hate him for it just as much as the next Cowboys fan. However, any QB in the NFL would struggle with a line that can't block and getting knocked on his ass 20+ times per game. As a former lineman in my football days, the sloppy work those guys do just drives me insane.

    Mike I agree he has moments, his line sucks, but from my days as a linebacker..he needs to learn how to get his ass out of the pocket. IMO his moments of glory, are mostly accidental

    RAVENS!! CAW CAW!!

    Yes, I am aware that the Ravens Quarterback is an overpaid and overhyped sissy. And yes, I know that the once mighty defense isn't the defense it used to be; getting older sucks. But they're still my team, damn it.

    I'm so awesome, I make myself jealous of myself.

    Browns fans have been saying that for years!

    Love all you football fans here. Browns fans kick ass. I had some clients from Cleveland, right after the team left for Baltimore. The first thing you saw at the airport was a countdown to the next Browns game, a preseason against the Cowboys. We brought up the trade and they got actually mad; not kidding. Browns fans kick ass.

    I was routing for the Browns when they picked Colt from Texas. Too bad he didn't have more success. Guy is really talented and I miss watching him play here in Austin.
