Wow. Garrett with an awful, awful timeout. What was he thinking?

The better question is why not a timeout immediately after Dez's catch? Had plenty of time to run another play or two and possibly get an easier kick.

I guess maybe in the heat of the moment that you just wanted to speed the process up? That did irritate me as well.

But icing your own kicker? He isn't going to have a good week.

No joke. And that's on Romo as much as it is on Garrett.

Man, I'm as critical of him as much as anyone but I don't agree. Romo was bloody brilliant (again) and he did EVERYTHING that could have been asked of him on that drive. His offensive coordinator and head coach absolutely lost that game for us TWO times. First not calling a time out, and then by calling a time out. That is as poor of a job as a coach could have done. Literally. The only way it would have been worse is if he just let the damn clock run all the way out and took the loss that way. Just ridiculous.

The way this team loses is frankly so unbelievably embarrassing. We have lost 5 games and every single one is an embarrassment on some level minus the NE game. We absolutely could be 11-1 right now and very, very realistically 10-2. Instead we sit at 7-5 and a damn good GB team away from being tied in the division. Hell, we win that game at Arizona and we would have had a chance to win the division this week against NY. Now if we lose we drop to 2nd place. All because this absolute turd of a head coach (who actually DEFENDED this shit after the game) lost his Ivy League mind as bad as Romo did vs. NY/Detroit.

GD it I am tired of having such a stupid team. 26 seconds (and 1 time out would have still been left as well). 26 seconds. You just can't defend wasting all of that on a 49 yard field goal. Especially when he already missed a 53 yarder and dinged in a 50 yarder. SO stupid.

Isn't it amazing that normal people like us notice this but the people that get paid millions don't?
