Since coming in to replace Brandon Weeden, he has just not looked up to the challenge, and Jason Garrett finally bowed to the reality of the situation and put Kellen Moore, a fan favorite (as backup quarterbacks so often are), in to finish the game. Moore (15 of 25, 158 yards) threw three interceptions, one that was disgusting in the end zone, but also seemed to help the Cowboys find a rhythm.

Chipotle said the three most recently reported illnesses all stemmed from two restaurants: one in Oklahoma and one in Kansas. The CDC has been unable to single out the exact cause of the E.coli outbreak because of the way Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc.
The Dallas Cowboys had a bad night last night as they were eliminated from the playoff picture by the New York Jets in a 19-16 loss.
Broncos’ scenario: From No. 1 seed to missing playoffs
The Broncos didn’t even get back in Pittsburgh territory in the second half until there was about three minutes left in the game. Head coach Mike Tomlin said after the game that the fundamental adjustment was that the team “stopped kicking (their) own butt”.
For Week 16 against the Bills, Moore being named starting quarterback of the Cowboys feel right, plain and simple.

MacFarland, overseeing USA operations against Islamic State, believe the helicopters are needed right now to win back Ramadi. And those assets should only be used when they can make a critical, strategic contribution to the fight.
The Cowboys may do one of three things; They could turn to the draft to develop a young quarterback over the next few years, or try trading for Johnny Manziel, who Jerry Jones is still very fond of. Absolutely not. I say this laughingly and lovingly but… while he will be Dallas’ starter to close this season…
They’ve been pretty inept without Romo running the offense (at least the passing game), which leaves the defense on the field for a little more than what they should be in games this season.
The Cowboys turned to their fourth quarterback of the season Saturday night, but will Kellen Moore also play the next two games?
Decker was relieved that he didn’t suffer a serious left knee injury when his leg landed awkwardly while he was being tackled after a first-quarter catch.

“You have to do your best to evaluate what you see with your eyes and oftentimes we all can get caught up with what someone’s experience is, what someone’s resume is and those things are important”.
Fitzpatrick called Thompkins “a smart football player”, noting, “He came up to me and said against this particular coverage I can get down the sideline”.
Overall, Fitzpatrick performed decently, going 26-for-39 for 299 yards with a touchdown and an interception.
“Kind of had tough sledding for a while”, Fitzpatrick said.
Cassel has 78 career starts and has thrown for almost 17,000 yards with 101 touchdown passes and 76 interceptions in an 11-year career. Cowboys RB Darren McFadden had 100 yards on 16 carries – his fifth 100-yard game of the season….
The undrafted Moore made his National Football League debut against the Jets, keeping the Cowboys in the game despite the three picks. I’m so proud of him.

Bailey followed with a 38-yard field goal for a 13-9 advantage. Moore got the tying drive by sneaking a pass behind Buster Skrine for a 23-yard gain to Cole Beasley. Sure, there are just two games left, but they’re making this move after putting him in as a replacement in Sunday’s game, so it’s big that he’s really going to prepare all week for the start over Matt Cassel. His second pass was intercepted by Marcus Gilchrist, but he rebounded to beat a NY blitz by slinging the ball in the flat to Bryant, who got around Revis for the touchdown and a 10-9 lead.
