For the third straight game the Cowboys have looked pretty average. Is it still Super Bowl or bust this year?

I'm not so sure these guys are as good as everyone thinks. Once you give them a little trouble, they break down. There are no real leaders or winners on this team. Romo is a girl. I can't stand to watch them sometimes. Questionable offense at times, horrible special teams, poor secondary. Lot of work to do if you want to talk Super Bowl. This feels like December.

There are no real leaders or winners on this team. I think this is the biggest problem. They don't have anyone that can step up and take over a game when they are down. They just seem to pile on each other rather than pick each other up. |

And now this comes out.
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo has a broken pinkie on his throwing hand and will be out four weeks, a team source told ESPN's Michael Smith.
Romo initially was diagnosed with a pinkie sprain in Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to the Arizona Cardinals.
Veteran quarterback Brad Johnson, the Cowboys' holder on kicks, is Romo's backup.
The Cowboys have lost two of their last three games after starting the season 3-0.

I think they were a little overrated, but the sky isn't falling just yet. They just need to worry about making the playoffs. As the Giants showed last year, once you're in, anything can happen.

That is easier said than done considering the division they play in.

TO thinks he can be like Irvin and shout at other players when they screw up. He may have had his off-field problems but he put his money where his mouth was on the field. Irvin wasn't perfect but there was never any talk about him dropping passes. There was never any talk about him taking plays off and flat out playing like a dog at times. I don't ever recall him pouting on the sidelines and certainly he never cried to the media about his lack of touches after a win.
They have no field generals on any side of the ball-O,D, & ST.

According to Jerry, you can't understand him.
Maybe Jerry will fire Wade and have Terry Bowden fill in for the rest of the season...

I have never heard anyone say TO takes plays off. Not saying he is Michael Irvin, but I don't think its because he takes plays off.

He may not have done it this year but he's dawged it his entire career. If it looks like a dawg, barks like a dawg, and smells like a dawg, it's a dawg. I don't ever recall Irvin taking plays off. He ran just as hard on the play that ended his career than he did since he played at the U. After 3 rings the guy still had more passion in his cocaine pinkie nail than TO will ever have in his oversized but fragile ego.
