Green Bay @ Dallas

You go away. Making excuses for Dak and blaming everyone but him for every loss makes you look ridiculous

Nobody made excuses for Dak. I didn't assess any blame for the loss. Stop assuming shit. I said go the fuck away because there is no way anybody is worth responding to if they think Dak played terrible because of a hand full of throws. Are we supposed to ignore all the great throws he made? You aren't even worth responding to honestly. Just a dumb-fuck Dak hater who was just waiting on the moment for him to have a few sub par games so you could talk shit.

No that's bullshit. You have your head so far up Dak's ass, you can't see that you are the type of "fan" that makes Dak look worse by blaming everyone on the team but Dak when he plays poorly. Here's what you need to come to terms with...Dak is asking for $35 million or so...so his bar is set differently than when he was just a 4th rounder making $1 million a year. Then it would be all about the 460 yards passing and the dimes he threw...against relaxed coverage when the game was out of hand...and not the 3 killer picks(not counting the 4th that was reversed on penalty). If you want him compared to Russell Wilson and ARod and Brady and paid like those guys, then he gets held to their standard of play. Saying he had a bad game doesn't make me a hater. Saying he didnt makes you an dumbass

There are a few that can get carried away with their frustration with certain things. I have always been one to try and keep an open mind to others opinions but sometimes people try to cram stuff down people's throats or are very short-sighted. I have grown frustrated with a few posters and the constant bad mouthing of certain players, so I have limited my posting there.

On the topic of game threads, I certainly think I post my frustration in the moment, much more than most but at the end of the day, I just want to win another SB. It has been way too long. I see all the talent this team has and when they play as poorly as they did for most of the day, today. It frustrates the piss out of me and I will bitch about it. I just have to step away and re-set after it's over. I don't think anyone wants their team to lose ever and some are just more negative but they are still Cowboys or Rangers fans and at least they aren't Redskins or Eagles fans

This is a message board. I have no problem with posters here only trolls. Venting is ok with me. Now I don't think it is right to complain about frustrated posters posting during a game on a game thread when the team is playing like shit, but don't say shit when those same posters praise the boys lol

The defense has not played at the expectation that I thought they would linebackers are underperforming at an epic level the DL is a piece of butter just waiting for a hot knife to melt them in the middle. CB and safety play has been average at best.
Right now if we were looking at the draft we need DT help badly safety help badly competition at Punter Kicker.
The Boys were shredded inside and outside on the line and the defense played like they were not prepared at all. The Cowboys have squandered a 2 game lead in the east with subpar play. I know we will lose games but losing like that was embarrassing for the team staff and fans!

Dak was terrible. That's not being a hater, I love the kid and I'm glad we have him, but he played like shit today. He's gonna get better. The defense played terrible. We need better DT's and better safety play. OL needs to get healthy. Need to rebound vs the Jets and ready for the biggest game of the year to date vs the Eagles

Yesterday was a tough one to assess. I disagree that Dak was terrible when he did both a lot of good and bad. Obviously he has to play better than he did because he certainly wasn't "good" and turnovers and mental mistakes (bad sacks and penalties) killed us more than anything else other than maybe run defense. We shouldn't have needed to come back from so far behind. There were a couple of passes that weren't intercepted that easily could have been. But, he had a couple of great touch throws too. He dropped a few balls in that he never would have done in the past. Unlike some, I also think the pass to Gallup while getting hit was fantastic. I read someone saying it was horrible or dumb or something, but while getting hit he still got the ball to the receiver way down the field right in stride. I thought it was incredible. Yeah it was into heavy traffic, but we needed to make something happen and we all have been saying how other teams WRs win these 50/50 balls and we want to see more of them now that we have better receivers. BUT,,,Dak has to stop with the turnovers. I don't care if Cooper should have caught the ball (and he should have) he was wide open and a better pass is probably a TD. The second Int was really bad and while it should have been pass interference or illegal contact on the last one it was still a questionable decision/throw. We don't need Dak to throw for 500 yards, we need him to protect the ball and throw it away when he is about to get sacked to take us out of FG range. Yeah, Maher probably misses that one too, but if we get that FG early in the game it could have been totally different at the end if it played out the same way.

The biggest positive yesterday was that Moore's Offense was flat out incredible. I said this at the half, but guys were open all game long and I thought the play calling was fantastic. If the players executed what Moore laid out for them we would have scored 70. Even without either of our OTs we still moved the ball at will when the players did their jobs. I think it was his best game so far this year.

i agree Dak did not play well, but I am more concerned with the defense. Well on to the jets. I may have to tamper my off season expectations. I just don't know about this team.

We have needed a run stuffing DT and a safety forever, and has not been addressed in 15 years. The only way it changes, IMO, is hiring a new coaching staff with a different mind set.

A Woods missed the last two weeks. While not a superstar I think he does a good job of stuffing the middle against the run. I suspect he is back next week. Our LBs are the biggest problem against the run right now because they are supposed to be 2 of our best players ans just aren't. It wasn't that there were gaping holes like the Rams game where the DL was being pushed around. There were missed tackles and cut backs and plays where Jones got around the corner that were bigger problems

Not Woods, but the Strong Safety position(Heath). We do need a run stuffing tackle IMO.

 

[GNG]

We sucked both ways
The refs were terrible
#3 ref should never be allowed to be in a peewee game ever again not just NFL
They did not cause the loss but he was fucking terrible
JMHO

The Packers were just dominant early in the game and the Cowboys just didn't have an answer. Can't blame the refs for this loss.

 

[GNG]

Dallas could have won this game, if they hadn't been so terrible in the first 2 1/2 quarters

Give Green bay some credit, they came out hitting on all cylinders.

And most of us laughed when JJ compared our offense to the Rams last year lol. Heck he was right. Not sure if we had Coop yet or not when he made that statement. With that being said, I would have still liked to have seen Zeke get more carries. I know we were playing from behind and we needed chunk plays, but he looked ready to roll yesterday. We got killed in TOP yesterday.

I agree. GB had some calls go against them too. The officiating throughout the league is ridiculous. It’s a flag every other play.

A coaching change likely happens. We have needed that huge DT. Teams that stick with the run burn us. Safety is the other one. The secondary also never turn the ball over. Jourdan Lewis and Wilson actually make plays on the ball and they cant get on the field. There is also no excuse for not upgrading the kicker before the season started. I knew Maher was shakey and would not come through.

 

[ArlingtonCowboys100]

Cowboys started the game well and the turning point was when Amari did not catch the ball and it deflected and was picked off. You cant give Rodgers extra possessions. The play also killed momentum. If any heads roll I would assume it would be the kicker. He has to make that 33 yard FG.

And we all knew Maher would miss those kicks. I don't know why Carrot trusts him in these situations.

4-7 is not acceptable. It's frustrating when every Cowboy fan knew an upgrade was needed and the team did nothing and it's already clear that he is hurting the team so far. Last year he was 73% on FGs longer than 29 yards. This year he is 1-4. So outside of 29 yards he has attempted 4 kicks and missed 3 of them. While he could turn it around, in what World is that OK?

We should have spent the money on a vet in the offseason. We are $20 million under, there's no reason we should have a kicker as poor as Maher. I said before the season he would cost us a chance to win in 3-4 games. Sticking with that number

I agree, the officiating just keeps getting worse. Maybe it's because of the constant rules changes.

i hope you are wrong, but I can see that if they stick with him.
