    Good game by Cowboys.

    I guess the good sign for the Packers is that Rodgers had another good game. They made too many mistakes when they got downfield though. After this game, the Packer's schedule is pretty easy, while Dallas' is pretty damn tough, so Green Bay still can easily win the conference.

    I think it's just young QB jitters. Philip Rivers did that a lot last year in the first 10 games or so.

    At least we ran the ball well. Both Jones and Barber looked great tonight, and that 60yd TD run by Felix was a thing of beauty.

    And really, Romo had an ok game. He made some dumb plays and had some bad throws, but he was ok, and I thought he got better in the second half. Plus, his TD pass to Austin was beautiful. I also thought we did a solid job on Rodgers too. We sacked him five times and got pressure on him pretty consistently from what I watched (which was the first half and 4th quarter). Their running game was also pretty ineffective, for the most part.

    Overall, while it wasn't pretty at times, a win is a win, and when you can get a win against one of the NFC elites, at their home no less, you take it.

    Its a win. On the road. Against a 2-0 team that is expected to compete for the NFC Championship.

    I'll take it.

    If we could have ran the ball, it would have been an easy win. I hope Bigby is back next week as well.

    Romo's little snafu's worry me that it'll happen in a big game at the wrong time and the defensive always worrys me because they give up yards but not points a lot of the time and the points happen too sometimes.

    still 3-0 is looking good to me with having played the Iggles and the Pack

    Bengals may have had an excellent run D or looked better on the OL against the Gmen. But it was one game, and they are still pathetic so far this yr.

    When that affects his QB play, I'll be worried.

    I know, Celtic_Fan just gave me an opening that I had to take. No homo.

    I know.

    And as far as his mistakes go.... the Browns INT... Owens ran the wrong route. Romo clearly thought Owens would flatten his route out (and he should have, he had his CB beat)... and instead, Owens drifted to the back of the end zone, which allowed the CB to come underneath.

    That's not on Romo.

    And I can live with that.

    The Philly game... the INT.... Romo's fault. The fumble.... Romo's fault.

    Green Bay... someone ran the wrong route. Or ran it poorly. Witten and Owens were in the same area. I have a pretty good hunch on whom to blame, but its merely a hunch.

    Romo will take chances. That's his game. We'll surrender some TOs as a result. But we'll also score on 3rd and 20, too. Not many QBs do that, either.

    I feel bad for Jets fans.

    That team isn't going anywhere and Brett will probably retire after this season.

    What a game to go to! Cromartie mother fucker! Philip Rivers is here, too!

    It's obvious that Brett and the receivers aren't on the same page yet.
