I'd rather see a rookie, but if we can get Smith for a 3rd rounder or later, I'd take it in an instant.

I can remember all of them off the top of my head. Tyrod TD in Atlanta, Peterman in the Saints game in garbage time, and Tyrod getting his first TD in the 1st quarter of the season against the Chiefs (only took 12 weeks).

I mean he got put in with a minute left at 4th & 3 and no timeouts lol What the hell were people expecting? And Thompson should've come back towards that ball, that much is obvious. But really there was nothing he could do there short of a miracle that would've changed anyone's opinions on him.

No... They did what good teams do against us, sell out to stop the run & make the QB play QB. That doesn't change with McCoy being any healthier. He still made his cuts and made some big plays, but we failed to capitalize on them (and one was called back by penalty) anyway.

My apologies then. People hating on Dennison when he called many plays today that were miserably executed is getting to me.

I feel your pain man, and I'm right there with you. This week was fantastic, and I wouldn't trade it for any other fandom in the world.

^Classy. I wish I could be there to greet them. I'd cheer every one of them, even Tyrod, just for making it there. Better than I imagined coming into the season.

Dennison 100% Not even close.

Can't judge him when the QB is so horrendously inept. There's way too much evidence that points to bad QB execution during good play calls. Would-be TD's overlooked for checkdowns. Open men past the LoS on 3rd down yet the QB hangs onto the ball forever and takes a sack or runs. Guys who beat their man wide open being overthrown by a mile. Slant routes thrown behind the player. Guys being thrown to way before the finished the route. Balls batted down at the LoS. Balls thrown into the dirt. Inability to go through reads. No touch on passes in the endzone. I mean when I see so much of this polluting every game, I can't even imagine how Dennison's offense would look with proper execution. Nate Hackett was one of the most hated OC's while he was here, and how he's coaching in the divisional round of the playoffs. Mularkey the "guru" was hated here too for his playcalling, and he's also in the divisional round. We go through coordinators faster than HC's, but one thing we haven't had is a good QB through all of them.

Cousins + a young QB from the draft would be a dream come true, but I agree with the point of your post - I am definitely proud of this team. Hey, that's the same amount we've had total in the 4th quarter the past 7 games! That's impressive lol

Yup, it was a TD as Thompson blew right past him & was wide open. And that DB behind him cut across the field to that point, he wasn't following him, just in case anyone was wondering.

He's been one of the few broadcast announcers I can genuinely say helps educate viewers. I mean it's really eye-opening what's happening on the field when Romo is calling a game. It's seriously impressive how well he knows the game.

It's definitely worth inquiring about. If he has any coaching aspirations, you have to start somewhere, and many OC's begin as QB coaches. You'd definitely have to pay a pretty penny, but his knowledge could prove insanely beneficial to a young QB.

I think Smith is way more than a "slight" upgrade over Taylor, and moreso than Eli by far. Kirk Cousins definitely is, but nobody is really questioning that. Not sure how good a fit he is for the team, but he's better than TT hands down.

While I agree with your end assessment, you don't grade a QB's performance by one game (today or otherwise). You look at what they've done throughout their career, and especially this season with this coaching staff. And that brings us to the same conclusion - he's not good & we need to move on.

Give Tony Romo a Jim Gruden deal as our QB coach LOL Ok, not really, but he'd be great to have help develop a young QB. I wouldn't be against getting a QB from Minnesota as long as we draft one to develop behind them too. And I'm fine with our OC for now.

I don't see how that's a horsecollar tackle. Refs helped us more than they hurt us today. Gave McCoy a great spot when he was clearly a yard short, giving us a 1st down instead of 4th. Called the neutral zone infraction that gave us 1st & goal at the 1. Gave us a pass interference call that picked up big yardage. Called the hit on TT when he was sliding. Overall they got most everything right & called a good game.

DT, O-line, MLB, QB, and probably another CB for if Gaines doesn't resign, or if he does, as depth behind him in case of injury.

A QB. That's all I want to hear.

With the way our defense played, absolutely. You'd think, but for some reason you still have people arguing otherwise in this thread lol

Exactly. And there were plays like this throughout the game. There were also times when Taylor did try to throw deep but failed to connect on all of them. He continuously overshoots guys who have their man beat, making us HAVE to scrape up small chunks of yards all game to get by. The defense doesn't have any fear for him throwing downfield.

No, I only started in the 2nd half after I was sufficiently frustrated with all the times perfectly good plays were lost because of bad decision making. After Tony Romo pointed out for about the 10th time who was open or how a "good pass" would've been a 40 yard play, I just started taking pictures lol Thank you though. And no matter how awful Tyrod's been on the field, especially his 3-22 record in games we go down by even 1 point in the 4th quarter, I still respect him as a human being and hope he makes a full recovery. I wish him the best in his future with any team, just hope he's not on our's next year.

I just don't get the need to flip OC every year when we never have a QB capable of executing on the field. We see SOOOO many plays left on the field that could've been great, but horrible decision making, errant throws, failure to go through progressions, etc. just make it too hard for me to say anything about Dennison. I see way too much that looks great until the QB throws a checkdown on 3rd & 6 behind the player while he's covered by 2 guys Like this one. Just over a second after the snap, O'leary one yard down field on 3rd, and right as he's about to cross into 2 guys about to blast him, Tyrod has already thrown past him instead of to the open guy past the sticks.

Here it is again, Tony Romo all game was pointing out missed opportunities.

Cover 4, man running right by the DB, Tyrod instead just looks him off. Incomplete to someone else.
