    In fairness, he made the Pro Bowl twice. I think he's good, just an overrated good.

    He did play with back pain, but Steve McNair played with everything pain and would still play well.

    22-4 in pre-December games.

    5-7 in December, will be 5-8 after losing to Philly next week.

    Pretty incredible.

    Another thing... I thought Roy Williams was brought in to bolster the passing game/take pressure off of TO, but he was almost completely ineffective tonight.

    If Pierre Thomas was starting for the 'Girls, he'd be two-time Pro Bowl as well. Jerry Jones has bought himself a team loaded with talent... but you know they'd like to get a better QB than Romo. Think if they had Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, etc... you know Jerry Jones wants a QB like that.

    I think Roy Williams was a good pick-up by the 'Girls. Wait until they get a great QB.

    Williams is overrated. Horrible desperation move by Jerry Jones.

    I didn't realize Hamlin sucked that much. I wanted the Saints to get him a couple of years back.

    I think clair would still rather Romo over Brees.

    But yeah, his record/efficiency in the crunch times is bad. I just don't think he'll be going anywhere anytime soon.

    Was that #26? If so, I would agree. That guy was manhandled all night. Been a while since I've seen a guy get run over/stiff armed that many times in one game.

    Depends. Brees is from Texas and led his Texas high school to a 16-0 season, winning the Texas State Championship in Texas Stadium, home of the Cowboys, in a 55-15 rout. Brees was also the second QB taken in the 2001 Draft after Vick. In college, Brees was a superstar, finishing #3 in the Heisman vote in 2000 and finishing #4 in the Heisman vote in 1999.

    If the Cowboys have no shot at Brees, Clair will say he'd rather have Romo. If the Cowboys get Brees, Clair will be doing cart-wheels in joy.

    Being that America's team lost tonight, does this mean this is a national day of mourning? Should we fly our flags at half-mast?
