Woes hound Cowboys suffers 5th loss in 2010 NFL season

Uncategorized Comments Off
Luck continues to evade the Dallas Cowboys in the 2010 National Football League season.
The Cowboys, who is an early favorite to win the Super Bowl crown this year suffers its fifth loss and only a single win in the NFL season with a heart-pounding 35-41 loss to the New York Giants.
What is more unfortunate with the loss is the fact that the Cowboys lose its superstar quarterback Tony Romo for six to eight weeks after suffering a left collarbone injury in the game.
Romo, who is considered as the heart and soul of the Cowboys suffered the injury after he was hit hard by Giants linebacker Michael Boley in one plays in the game.
Now that Romo is injured, the opportunity for the Cowboys to enter the NFL playoffs is getting slimmer since his absence leaves a big-hole to fill in the quarterback position.
Expected to fill in the void left by Romo is 38-year-old Cowboys back-up quarterback Jon Kitna who hadn’t played since Oct. 5, 2008, when he was part of Detroit’s win-less season.
Compared to Romo, Kitna is old and less skilled which is why the Cowboys are up for a huge challenge in their remaining games in the NFL regular season especially that Romo is out with an injury.
Back to the game, the Giants were on mission on the night of October 25, as superstar quarterback Eli Manning took advantage of the absence of Romo powering the Giants from a 13-point deficit to a
41-35 victory that put the Giants a full game ahead of the NFC East and tied for the most wins in the conference.
Manning led New York (5-2) on five straight scoring drives over the middle two quarters, posting 31 points.
The loss is very disappointing for the Cowboys who had the chance to win the game before disaster strike when its superstar quarterback got injured.
Romo is very sad with his injury and loss but he remains optimistic with their chances since a 1-5 win-loss record Cincinnati Bengals was still able to enter the playoffs in the 1970 NFL season.
He said all they have to is to play harder in his absence and always follow the game-plan of the team.
The superstar quarterback also wished his replacement Kitna saying the veteran NFL star now has the chance to shine in his absence.
Giants coach Tom Coughlin for his part is very happy with their victory since it strengthen further their chance to enter the NFL playoffs this year.
Coughlin said the Giants lead by Manning are on a mission to capture the Super Bowl crown from the New Orleans whose superstar quarterback Peyton Manning happens to be the brother of his top quarterback.
The 2010 NFL season is now in full-throttle to bring smiles to professional football fans all over the globe.
