A Win is a Win... Right?



U G L Y is all I have to say after the Cowboys' 16-10 win at home against the Bucs. The Cowboys looked pretty awful in many aspects although their defense did hold it down for most of the day. Fortunately, the Bucs looked even more pathetic all around. Romo didn't have a great day, but the offensive line was even worse as they were responsible for numerous false start penalties, and allowed our QB to be sacked something like 4 times. Miles Austin had a productive day, and Dez Bryant's punt return towards the end of the game that set up the field goal that sealed the win for them was a bright spot as well. And most importantly, the Cowboys got a win and are 2-1 and keeping up with the rest of the NFC East.

This type of performance will most definitely not get it done against tougher opponents though, and my team is going to have to get it together quickly. It also worries me that Jason Witten is really struggling with dropped passes, considering the fact that his reliability has never been an issue in the past. In addition to this, the Cowboys were penalized 13 times for 105 yards which is absolutely absurd. Their lack of team discipline, a theme that's held them back from being considered consistent every year, is something that they're going to have to change if they want to advance to a more elite level in the NFL.

Anyways, I will discontinue my criticisms for now and end this post as I started it: A win is a win. Smooches.
