Made some pretty weak/bad plays this game.

had a tough game - and i have the feeling he was on thin ice anyway. Wouldn't be surprised to see some movement in teams for him coming off. Jerry is going to look for a victim.

Sadly, he had a horrible game. That being said, I think we all knew the weakness of this team was the defensive backfield. Well, they had a few howlers this weekend, a few last weekend, all adding to their lowlight reel of horror films from this season that often made games much closer than they should have been.

He had a rough day, but so did the others in the secondary. Moore made up for at least 1 missed tackle by Scandrick.

Thin ice? Moore has been great all year.

The problem with the Cowboys is that they have three above average number 2 corners and no number 1 corner.

If they manage to get their hands on a number 1 corner, it will be at Carr's expense. Too high of a cap number to be a number 2 corner.

Rodgers had all day to throw the entire game. Secondary hung in there the first half, but when you are having to cover for 6 seconds every play, that just doesn't last all game long. I do like that Moore got beat by some very good passes when he was trying to make a play on the ball. The long TD the safety didn't exactly help him out.

Cowboy needs in the offseason: 1) stud pass rushing DE. 2) Number 1 corner. 3) DT, 4) LG. If Melton comes back, that takes care of number 3, but if the cowboys can pick up a really good pass rusher DE, that defense is going to be quite good next season. LBs are incredible. If you can get a dominant pass rusher, it can take care of not having a stud corner.

Moore has had a great season for the Cowboys. He and the rest of the defense just got killed by a surgeon of a QB.

That last TD pass that Rodgers threw was incredible

I would still take Sterling over 4th pick of the draft Mo Claiborne any day of the week.

not with you there LH. I love Sterling but I think he is a weak spot in the cowboys line up.

He's probably better than several of the corners on the Redskins. Except for Breeland, they couldn't cover a bed.
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna

IN the beginning of the year, when Claiborne was in, the other team picked on him non-stop, throwing away from their number 1 WR, who was matched up against Carr.

When Claiborne went down and Sterling came in, teams started to pick on Carr and threw away from Sterling.

The Cowboys have several number 2 corners - Claiborne, Carr, Moore, and Scandrick. If they can pick up a number 1 corner, the player who gets cut is probably Carr because he makes too much money and isn't as good as Scandrick. Sterling is a very good player at his cap number.

I'd also add a qb to groom to that list. Pipe dream I know, but weeden is back up material at best. He is not Tony's successor

We gotta find another QB to back fill. Not because Romo sucks, but because he's gonna get sacked one day, and that will be that. He's already frail as hell.

All those years of getting beat up from not having a good offensive line are taking their toll. I applaud the cowboys in drafting 3 1st round offensive linemen but it was too little too late as far as saving romos career. Guy has taken way more shots than you should ever let your franchise qb take.

Who would possibly be a good choice in this draft?
