All I can say is I hope this pathetic display was a wake up call to the whole team. Anyone still think Denver's tanking?

Well there you go. A good old fashioned butt whooping.
I never thought we would win out but how is this team this un-prepared in all phases of the game against a average team? I’ve never been a huge MM fan but this is very concerning. We made no adjustments and just kept drinking the kool-aid. I knew we weren’t great against the run, but dam.
Anything short of humiliating Atlanta next week will be very discouraging. We will see what this team is really made of. Go Cowboys!

One thing that really bugs me is we kept rushing Parsons and Gregory from the inside on 3rd and long.

Seems pretty freaking stupid to me when you consider the Broncos' offensive tackles were backups and their guards are pretty solid.

The soft coverages on 2nd and long letting them run for an easy 11 plus yards 3 times didn't help either. They just gifted them 3 easy first downs and bailed them out when the defense should have been able to get off the field. You have to stay aggressive.

I said our run defense hasn't been tested so far this year. That if a team runs the ball against us 36 times, then we were tested. Well today we were tested.

The moral of this story is it is very hard to win with a turnstile at left tackle.

Should have kicked the FG on that second 4th down. That changed the entire game.

I agree, should've kicked the FG both the 1st and 2nd time, but that didn't cost us the game. We've been there before and it didn't stop us before. We can't blame a 4th down call for the game, we just played lousy. The OL played lousy, Dak was off, the receivers were dropping the ball, and the defense was a total fail. That game was a total team failure.

It’s going to be a hilarious week watching all the overreaction from the Nancys.

Good teams don’t get smoked at home by .500 ball clubs. But you go ahead and go full-on ostrich, Rockport. ‘Nancys’ my ***.

If Smith is out next week, Collins has to be at LT

...onto ATL. They will regroup, re-plan, eat some soup and be ready. I still believe we go far this year.

You forgot the coaches, but it's understandable.:muttley:

Happens all the time. But don’t let me stop you from overreacting because it’s hilarious!

Should have drafted a LT when Tyron started
:hammer:

Seeing Collins today was scary...looks like that guy laid on the couch for 2 months doing nothing but eating junk food....during his little hiatus.

Look at what losing key players on the OL did to Kansas City

And no tiebreakers were affected here. Could've been worse.
I didn't get to respond in time to the Norwich City kit unis, but is it the stripes that remind you of the notorious malodorous skunk or the canary yellow color that completes their humiliation? Either is apropos.
