Kellen Moore is the new Cowboys starting quarterback

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Kellen Moore (17) throws a pass in the first half of an NFL football game against the New York Jets on Saturday, Dec. 19, 2015, in Arlington, Texas. That screams mediocrity and for a team with a lot of talent, a lot of passion, and is starving for victory they deserve a head coach that is going to make the team reach their full potential. “We’re on our way to becoming one of those type of teams if we can keep it up”.

Around 500 properties were flooded in York , one of Britain’s top tourist destinations, on Sunday as two rivers burst their banks. The worst-hit areas will have some respite from rain but the crisis looks set to continue as more bad weather sweeps in.

Entering Sunday’s play, NY was a half-game ahead of Pittsburgh and Kansas City – both 8-5 – in the race for the AFC’s two wild-card spots. Jets kicker Randy Bullock made up for a pair of bad misses earlier in the game with a 40-yard field goal with 36 seconds left to take the lead. I think he showed a lot of poise.

Bravo was in sight of his second century of the series after his 108 in Hobart before he fell short, slicing Pattinson to Smith. Burns was finally out when he was smartly stumped by Ramdin off part-time spinner Kraigg Brathwaite for 128.

TIED, AND UNTIED: Dallas’ Dan Bailey tied it at 16 on a 50-yard field goal that caromed through off the right upright with 1:55 remaining.

The Cougars won 12 games combined in his first three seasons before jumping up to nine this year after the bowl victory. More important, the Cougars improved to 7-5 all-time in bowl games, and 2-0 all-time in Sun Bowls.

NY quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick moved the offense 58 yards, most of it coming on a 43-yard strike to receiver Kenbrell Thompkins down the sideline. A series of running plays set up Bullock’s game-deciding kick.

“It’s good to string some games together”, Bowles said.

Overall, Fitzpatrick performed decently, going 26-for-39 for 299 yards with a touchdown and an interception.

Jets receiver Brandon Marshall had 74 yards on four catches. They scored two plays later on a three-yard touchdown pass to Eric Decker.

These included games against the New England Patriots, Carolina Panthers and Green Bay Packers.

The Cowboys are 4-10 and officially eliminated from the playoffs. Those that disagree with that priority simply haven’t been paying attention to the Cowboys’ 2015 disaster of a season.

But Garrett wasn’t ready to say the Cowboys made an outright error in choosing Cassel over Weeden.

“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”.

Matt Cassel is out and Kellen Moore takes over for the Dallas Cowboys, who will start four different quarterbacks in a season for the second time in franchise history. The interception sealed New York’s 19-16 victory over the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium in Texas. Of course the team knew that this year when they first called Kyle Orton – who is retired – about playing for the them when Romo went down after Week 2.

Garrett did not commit to Moore starting next week at Buffalo. On the ground, Darren McFadden rushed for 100 yards in 16 attempts while Lucky Whitehead added 32 yards in two attempts. The Jets came into the game allowing less than 80 yards rushing per game.

“Two games at the end of a wretched season prove nothing, whether Moore throws 10 touchdown passes or 10 interceptions”. Despite Cassel’s poor play, which eventually led to his benching for Moore, when the second quarter ended, the Jets trailed 10-9.

Moore’s second interception in the end zone was a game killer.

The bottom line is that being without Tony Romo for 11 of the 14 games the team has played this season is it was such a distraction that neither the players nor the coaches could perform up to an acceptable level. This team’s penchant for playing close and the uncanny ability to not make a play is something out of a J.J. Abrams’ script; how else to explain yet another close conclusion that is the equivalent of C3PO’s arms and legs being ripped off?
