Give Bledsoe a break...he had no kind of pass protection what so ever! His pocket collasped most of the time...things like this force a QB to make mistakes! Romo would not have done any better...
The Cowboys as a team got in their own way of winning this game! Sure they looked good the first couple of series, but all the penalties is what drove them down hill! Penalties took Witten's TD away, a couple of T.O.'s catches for good chunks of yardage, one of Glenn's sideline catches and made 3rd/shorts into 3rd n longs...this killed potential scoring drives. Parcell also fell into "conservative" mode WAY TOO early...guess he will have to adjust to having a power offense or this will be a long season!
I kinda see this loss in a positive way...its a great "reality" check for them and I am sure they will bounce back with the fire-power potential they showed in the 1st quarter...

After the first quarter they started playing really sloppy, then Parcells got really conservative.
I dont see how you have recievers like T.O. and Terry Glenn and dont try to stretch the field at all.
Well, actually I guess I do. When you have a QB that holds on to the ball for too long and makes shitty decisions but you're too proud to bench him because he was your guy in New England, I guess you have to play conservative.

They can easily be the team they were for 2 series if they give Bledsoe some protection, clean up the penalties and use their offensive weapons for 4 quarters...screw all this conservative b.s...
