Last night's game plan was immaculate. I think the defense has (at times) outplayed the offense these past 7 games. There was only one play call (defensively) that pissed me off. That was the goal line defense where he decided to rush only 3 and drop the rest in coverage. Thereby giving Romo 8+ seconds to find a open Witten.
That said, I'm still not sold on Haslett, and feel that we can find a better 3-4 DC out there. I will say Jim has done a great job these past few weeks, and think that this defense could be better with upgrades in the secondary. I won't be mad if he's dismissed, nor will I be if he's brought back on.

Yeah that call pissed me off too. You just can't give any QB that long to find an open guy and it's unfair to ask your guys to cover for that long. I didn't even blame Riley on the TD, that's on the coaches. But Haslett has earned the right to come back. Let's remember he's doing this without his best pash rusher and some serious question marks in the secondary.
