Well Quincy Carter did his best to screw things up for the Cowboys. Ok, I take it back - this wasn't his best effort to screw things up - he has done a much more complete job in the past. My QC rating for the game puts him at two dunce caps... that means he still made some stupid moves, but he wasn't too terrible

RATING 2 dunce caps

For the record... here is how the rating system stacks up

perfect game - Hall of Fame performance
career game, full of highlights
solid performance - superstar's average game
had flashes of brilliance
decent outing- nothing embarassing
NOTHING - average game expected of NFL QB
almost average - but minor screwups
some bonehead plays
mostly stupid all day
he is not long for the NFL
my dead grandmother could have done better

The good news for the Cowboys is that they went up against a good defense and managed to score despite Galloway's fumble-fingers act for most of the first half. The running game looked shaky at first, but Hambrick got his thing going in the second half when the Eagle's D loosened up on the inside. The defense for the Boys again did a good job despite a couple bonehead mistakes. Overall, it was a good victory. Now, they are 4-1 for the first time since 1995 (when they won a SuperBowl.) It would be too cool to see something like the Cowboys and Titans in the SuperBowl - especially since the bowl is here in Houston this year... but I am not going to hold my breath until Carter is replaced by Peyton Manning or he has another 10 games playing consistantly well.
