Re: Give Props to Brunell
I mean Brunell played a very good game, and yet they are talking trash.
If our D held up, we would have crushed the Boys. Apparently they fail to see the problems with our D. Remember, jedi mindtricks?

Re: Give Props to Brunell
I know what you meant, I was saying that stubborn is too nice of a term to describe the bashers.

Re: Give Props to Brunell
I think had our O-line been able to get a push off the line and run-block (e.g. inside the 5 in the 1st quarter), we would have crushed them.

Re: Give Props to Brunell
he did pretty darn good w/o the teams #1 wr, a pretty non existent running game except for one play, and a mixture of dropped passes and bad calls nullifying completions. He did make a bad decision to try and force it into lloyd which luckily wasn't intercepted and could have run for a first down a couple times if he had his mentality of a few years ago, but he looked damn nice with a couple lasers 15+ yards down the field. I was just excited to see the offense making attempts down the field and look at what it resulted in with a few big catches and almost as many big penalties.

Re: Give Props to Brunell
Brunell played well today. Let us celebrate w/o any player bashing (except AA).

Re: Give Props to Brunell
So it's not cool to bash Brunell because he played a decent game, but it's ok to bash the defense which had a pretty good game themselves? Ahhh.. hypocrisy.

Re: Give Props to Brunell
Brunell had a better game at his position than the D did overall, imo (and I'm a defense fan)... how many 3rd downs did Dallas convert, especially 3rd and longs? They cowboy's offense had no problem slicing the D for big chunks on the run (both jones and barber) and romo handled the blitzes nicely. The defense did just enough to put us in a position to win- key stops in the 4th quarter, special teams block on the FG by Vanderjagt...
