Man this shit is ridiculous. The Cowboys just keep finding ways to blow games.
Everyone is at fault for this loss. The defense gave up way too many yards, but they also had four turnovers. The offense turned four turnovers into 10 points, but it probably should have at least been 17.
If you have the lead late in the game, and you can't eat up the clock by RUSHING for a first down, you really don't deserve to win. It's highly unlikely to win many games rushing for only 62 yards.
Last but not least, aside from Romo's two long touchdown passes, which were a lot of YAC yards, Romo had a terrible game.
On the bright side, only two penalties committed today!!!

Agreed.... the Cowboys needed to protect the lead (that's why Bryant was fuming)... two run plays in a row and then an incomplete pass by Romo (stopped the clock), he was better off taking a sack so that the clock could keep running.
This defense has to be the worst I've seen in a long time... can't stop anyone!

The Cowboys played without four starters – DeMarcus Ware, DeMarco Murray, Miles Austin and J.J. Wilcox – in Sunday’s loss to Detroit. In those 60 minutes of football, they might have lost another handful.
Chief among those is starting right guard Brian Waters, who suffered three injuries all on his own. Waters suffered a rib strain and a hyperextended knee in the first half against the Lions, but the serious issue was a triceps injury that occurred just a handful of plays into the second half.
“Brian hurt a rib early on in the ballgame,” coach Jason Garrett said. “He hurt his knee as the game went on and also hurt his triceps later in the game and we’re most concerned about the triceps. We’ll get some final evaluations on the MRI in the next few hours and just see what his status is going forward.”
Waters has appeared in seven of the Cowboys’ eight games this year after signing a few days prior to the season opener. He has started five straight games, beginning with the team’s Week 4 loss to San Diego.
“He's a guy that plays the game the right way,” Garrett said. “He's physical, he's tough, he knows what to do, he plays with a little bit of an edge to him, and that's a positive thing. I've talked to our team about it -- it's contiguous.

ugly win but ill take it comeback victory need to run the fuckin ball more had 9 rushing attempts the whole game and 51 pass attempts
Props:
STICK
The only positive, other than winning the game, was that after throwing an INT, Romo led a nice game winning touchdown drive.
The DB made a great play on the ball on the INT, but Williams made ZERO effort for anything on it. He didn't try to catch the ball. He didn't try to knock it loose from the DB. It looked like he was just trying to play fucking patty cake.
And yes, we need to run the ball more. Murray's average was good for the few carries he had, but NINE fucking rushes the whole game? This shit is ridiculous. It's sad that they haven't had a running game since Barber was The Closer. Once they made him the starter, it's been ALL downhill except for like two games where Murray beasted the Rams lol.
