What is JJ doing in Philly?
On the local sports talk radio show hey verified that JJ's private plane is at Philly International Airport and he is staying at a local hotel. They are speculating what he is here for and thinking it could be to see Marvin Harrison, or any number of Eagle free agents such as Brian Dawkins. I'm thinking that it would be a day early to be getting here to talk to a free agent, since that does not start until friday. Has anyone else heard anything?
Jason Garrett- the love child of Mike Martz and Steve Spurrier
Jason Garrett is horrendous, like Steve Spurrier he does not believe in protecting the QB, he sends everyone out of routes, hardly ever even keeping a RB in to block.
Like Mike Martz, 90% of his pass routes a deep pass routes.
This had to be the worst game by an offensive coordinator that I have seen since Shula's kid held the job.
Tashard Choice comes out and is running well, do we stick with it or play action off of it ? No, we just go to the shotgun all the time. Baltimore was sitting in a 2 deep zone with both safties 20+ yards off the ball, the way to get a team out of that is to run the ball. We were, and were doing it well, but Garrett would not stick with it long enough to get them out of the 2 Deep zone. A perfect example is Choice's 30 yard run early in the game, it came out of a traditional formation with Romo under center, commom sense tells you to line up in a similar formation and either run again until they stop it, or play action off of it. What do we do though, he busts off that run, next play we come out in the shotgun formation. There just seems to be no flow to our offense, nothing is ran to set up anything else, it just looks like a bunch of random crap thrown against a wall. Tashard Choice has looked like our best offensive weapon in the last 3 games, but the only person who has stopped him has been Garrett.
Once again, CB's were playing off a lot, but I only remember 1-2 called slants or hitches. Shorter passes and putting Romo under center and letting him PA fake would have kept him from taking so many hits, we sit back in a shotgun and let the other team T off on out QB.
9 out of 10 times on 3rd and 4th down (last play of the game) we throw behind the LOS....just pathetic.
As stated 100 times Baltimore was in a cover 2. Where were the seam routes and flags? those are the weaknesses of the cover 2, we started throwing those late in the game....too late.
Probably 3/4ths of Romo's ints this year have come on plays similar to the ones he threw tonight. He will make a niceplay to avoid the rush, then heave it up into double or triple coverage. Does Red Headed Jesus have the testicular fortitude to say anything to him about it? appears not. I think without anyone with enough sack to say anything to him about it, Romo has actually regressed this year. Not only on plays like that, but lately he has started throwing balls away to the middle of the field. Parcells said you always had to stay on Romo, that lesson appears lost on Garrett.
I understand that even with all of the above we still could have won if Romo hits Austin or TO, or if a few breaks go our way with fumbles (I have never seen a team get as lucky as Baltimore did tonight) and that you just can't give the players a free pass, but our coaches are not putting our players in a good enough position to play well. JG does not make it easier at all for our offense.
I have been on Wade all year, but I'd much rather we find a good OC and let Wade run the defense as it is. If our offense were worth a crap we'd have been up on both Pitt and Baltimre by 21.

WADE IS A HORRIBLE DC!!!!!!!
Midway through the 2nd quarter we were pressuring Eli, and he was crapping the bed, then for whatever reason we stopped, and never went back to it. We settled back into that 2 deep zone with our whole group of DB's 15-20 yard off the ball. You can't play a physical runing team like that. On two of Eli's TD throws our DB's we backpeddaling into the endzone like they were playing prevent.
You want to know why Mike Jenkins struggles? Why our secondary struggles in general? Because everyone of our CB's is better suited to play man to man, but we sit back in zone 90% of the time and mush rush our DL.
