Losers: Brandon Weeden, Dallas Cowboys

Speaking of the Cowboys, how about them Brandon Weedens?

For everyone who figured all was OK despite losing Tony Romo because Weeden looked competent last week, well this is what happens when teams have tape on a backup.

The stats are ugly enough on their own (183 yards, just one touchdown compared to two picks) but the game itself was even worse. Weeden looked lost and had issues finding his receivers.

Dallas was in this game for three quarters and then it all fell apart. Romo might have won that game.

Having seen him again, I am reminded that Weeden will not.
