Wow, can this season start any more poorly....
Edit: It would help if the refs weren't Eagles fans.

This offense looks so terrible. The guards are back up callibre. Bradford looks awful. I'll give him more time since this is his second game after two years out of football. That said, he didn't exactly have much of an NFL resume to begin with.
Chip is looking pretty stupid for fucking up the chemistry of his Oline in the process of unloading a reasonably talented guard and a semi serviceable one. It has neutered that expensive backfield and Bradford has to be hearing footsteps constantly. Preseason champs doesn't mean shit, can't believe the media jumped all over it so quickly.
How can you say Romo is made of glass? He has taken a ton of big hits and kept playing. Anyone having their shoulder driven into the ground like that is more likely than not to have something broken. It's been past time to draft an understudy though. Gotta happen this offseason, although rumormill is Kellen Moore may be the groomee. I have confidence in the front office though now, which is not something I can say has not been the case since forever, so will see what happens.
I may be delusional, but I think Dallas is still a favorite to win the division, albeit with more like a 10-6/9-7 record now. If Weeden can drive the bus and the defense keeps playing lights out (and no more significant injuries, like Sean Lee or to the Oline), Dallas should have Romo and Dez back to close out December. Granted it's against lesser opponents and only two games, but Dallas is #1 in rushing D and #3 overall. Who'da thunk that would be the case for 2015 if you were observing them in 2013.
Romo flopped a lot last year after taking the shot in the back, and started getting called a pussy. He doesn't flop and he's stupid. Win/win amirite?
Apparently the NFC East is a joke again, outside of Dallas but that is even hard to say with Dez and Romo injured.
Lotta injuries to stars and starters cropping up early this year. Romo, Dez, Cutler, Lacy, Brees, Nelson, Stafford, etc. Eagles had both ILB exit the game yesterday.
