Oh how quickly the mighty Dallas Cowboys have fallen. Just three weeks ago, you would have had a hard time finding too many fans or media members (including TheFinalPoint.com) who weren't picking the Cowboys to be the first team to play a home game in the Super Bowl. But after a week two 27-20 loss to the visiting Chicago Bears at the teams home opener, even the most diehard Cowboys fans are contemplating putting their Cowboys jersey's in storage until next season.

The Cowboys are off to its worst start since 2001 and look as though not a single player or coach stayed awake through training camp. It's a complete tossup right now on whose looked worse, the coaching staff or the players, but there is certainly more than enough blame to go around.

How is it that the Cowboys, who are second in the league only behind the Indianapolis Colts in passing yards, have averaged just 13 points-per-game going into week three? The Colts have no problems scoring touchdowns, averaging 31 points-per-game.

OK, so maybe it's an unfair comparison considering we're talking about the Colts, who have a quarterback that will most likely go down as the best quarterback to ever step onto a football field in Peyton Manning, so how about a more realistic comparison in quarterback Jay Cutler and the Bears?

The Bears have the third most passing yards in the NFL behind the Cowboys and average 23-points-per-game, doubling Dallas' average. A trendy argument, both locally and nationally, is the fact that the Cowboys running game has been nonexistent. In the teams first game against the Washington Redskins, Dallas ran the ball effectively in the first half but strangely abandoned the run game in the second half.

Between the Cowboys three running backs, who many argue could each hold starting jobs on other teams, Marion Barber, Felix Jones and Tashard Choice put up 103 yards on the Redskins. Offensive coordinator Jason Garrett was crucified over local sports talk show airwaves for getting pass happy in the second half.

So, if the first loss was on Garrett for not running the ball enough, the Cowboys three running backs must be to blame for last weeks loss to Chicago. The trio averaged a dismal 1.8 yards for 36 yards on 20 carries. Only this time, Garrett tried and tried and tried again to run the ball in the second half but it was hopeless when Jones, who was supposed to be the electrifying, explosive back, carried the ball 7 times for 7 yards and looks twice as slow as Barber.

To say that the Cowboys scoring woes are due to the fact that the running game is nowhere to be found is easy but the Bears are tied with the Cowboys at 29th in overall in rushing yards averaging 69.5 yards-per-game. The only difference between the Cowboys and Bears is that Chicago manages twice as many points each game than Dallas does and the Bears are undefeated and the Cowboys are 0-2.

To get into the specifics of last weeks game, the Cowboys defensive line played an absolutely dominating first half. Cutler looked as though he might not even want to come back onto the field in the third quarter after getting sacked once and hammered 11 times.

It looked as though former St. Louis Rams offensive coordinator, Mike Martz, made an effective adjustment by having Cutler get rid of the ball in under three seconds on quick slant routs and bubble screens but it was revealed by Bears officials after the game that Martz' adjustments were minimal in Cutler's success in the second half. Instead it was Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips who admitted after the game that he began cooling off blitz packages after the Cowboys got burned downfield a few times.

"Well, we blitzed them and they threw a touchdown pass on us because nobody covered the guy," Phillips said referring to the wide-open 39-yard touchdown pass from Cutler to tight end Greg Olsen. "We had what I though was a real strong rush early, later on, we didn't rush quite as well."

Actually Wade, you didn't really rush at all in the second half. After the miscommunication between linebackers Keith Brooking and Bradie James that led to the Olsen touchdown, the Cowboys called off the dogs only blitzing a handful of times.

So, that's the message Phillips is sending to fans and the rest of the league -- burn the blitz once or twice and the Cowboys will completely shy away from a dominant defensive strategy that was working flawlessly.

If the defensive play-calling wasn't enough to make you nauseous, the fact that the Cowboys offense was only able to score one measly touchdown probably did the trick. The Cowboys receiving core holds arguably the biggest star power in the league but you wouldn't know it by looking at the box scores following losses to both the Redskins and Bears. Between the star-studded receiving core of Miles Austin, Roy Williams, Jason Whitten and potentially Dez Bryant, the Cowboys have managed to get into the end zone just once via a 4-yard touchdown pass from Romo.

Phillips continues to try and sell the "we're not panicking," message but his players looked dejected and defeated after last Sunday's loss.

I've never been in this position," Romo said referring to the 0-2 hole the Cowboys find themselves in. "You have such high expectations for each year leading into it. There's still a lot of season left, there's still time but it's getting to the point where we need to play our best football."

With 13 weeks left in the season, mathematically, the Cowboys still have a good shot at having a successful postseason but considering they have the third most difficult schedule in the NFL, it's going to take near-perfect play from Dallas for the remainder of the year.

The Cowboys are headed to Houston Sunday to take on the scorching-hot Texans who ran through another Super Bowl favorite in the Indianapolis Colts 34-24. The Texans managed to maintain an undefeated record after a thrilling overtime win over the Washington Redskins and are averaging 32-points-per-game.

The 0-2 start was enough to prompt a players-only meeting, something that is unusual after just two weeks of play but everyone isn't on board with one player saying that, "We are grown men, not children." Cowboys safety Gerald Sensabaugh came up with a perfect description of what the Cowboys look like when speaking to reporters on monday following the Bears loss.

"There seems like there's brain farts everywhere," Sensabaugh told reporters on Monday afternoon. "What are we doing? What is this? We look like a circus, like a bunch of clowns out there. I don't know what the hell we're doing."

You are not alone Gerald, we don't know what in the world you guys are doing either.
