Default The Cowboys are the only team in the NFL who has not achieved this goal

The Eagles finally scored more than 10 pts before halftime which means that now we are the only team in the NFL who has yet to score more than 10 pts before the half. That needs to end this week at home against a sorry eagles defense after seeing how they have given up 30 pts the last 2 weeks.

So there is no reason why we can't break that sad streak this week of not scoring beyond 10 pts. The time is now

It's such an odd stat for a team that ranks in the top 10 in total offense. I understand that points win games, but how can you run up and down the field so much and not score?

If Foles plays we'll destroy Philly. If Vick plays I have no idea. Our luck and Vick decides to show up against us.

I don't see Vick coming back since the season is over.

Well that's embarrassing.

Easy:

Replace total offense with Passing offense

We can't run the ball
We can't execute in the redzone
We're playing from behind often
We create to many penalties

Not being able to run is not an excuse for not scoring in the redzone New Orleans has the best red zone offense with 3 freakin rushing TD's

greenbay is a better red zone offense and they have no running game.

The issue is execution from stupid penalties, to over thrown balls to dropped passes etc etc

It is. Ronald McDonald doesn't seem to get that both halves matter equally in the end.
