CHIP KELLY looked small and pale, standing behind a Lincoln Financial Field lectern in the aftermath of the worst 20-10 loss in the history of the National Football League.
The only thing at the Linc that looked more colorless and slight than Kelly yesterday might have been his run-based offense, which totaled 7 yards on 17 carries in the most futile effort of the Kelly era - 15 carries for minus-2 yards on runs that weren't Sam Bradford scrambles.
It was a game in which Dallas, already without star receiver Dez Bryant, lost quarterback Tony Romo to a broken collarbone with 9 minutes and 44 seconds remaining in the third quarter, didn't score an offensive touchdown until the final minutes, was penalized 18 times for 142 yards, and still had victory well in hand for the entire second half.
