Very disappointed in MM, Dak, Zeke, OL and Quinn.....
MM is trying to hard to not be Garrett.....Quinn is trying to hard not to be Quinn.....Dak played well, but missed some easy ones, Zeke should have taken the day off....he's not healthy...OL is decent, but Philbin has been reading the CZ...I haven't gotten too emotionally involved in games for a while, try to take it in stride and stay positive....yesterday was different....I was pissed! Still am.....we should have won that game. I don't complain about the refs much, but they were horrible! Salud!

When you get the ball first in OT at home, you have to win it on that series because a punt dumes you.

Overcome. We’re trying to win a super bowl and if Dallas executes their plays we win that game.

Overcoming chaotic situations is part of football.

If you guys think we’re going to win a Super Bowl while facing no adversity then your delusional.

They have screwed themselves over in terms of the 1 seed so going on the road and overcoming adversity is going to be the recipe if they want to win anything now.

I frankly didn't expect us to go to the SB this year before the season. I said before the season that my expectations, and you might recall this, was us getting to the divisional round, maybe the conference championship, but I'm we still lack in a couple areas. I'm frankly surprised we started as strong as we did. I had us at 11-6 this season, which is still quite doable, especially if we get some pieces back. I think next season, if we can address the trenches and get one more good safety, will be when we break through. I agree we didn't execute well yesterday, but I still think we were a play or two away from winning. Oh, and we need to do something about our kicker. We need a consistent kicker.

The refs beat us yesterday so as homer but thats my excuse they keep the raiders offense moving the ball all night on bs tick tack call on our defense..


its aa thing to see when the yellow zebras have such an effect on loss its hard to too get passes..this is the worst reffed year since the scab year..

Im still in shock but when your owner comes out and aid that game was an embarrassment to the nfl shield , that means there something there

anyone else also get irritated with the broadcast
i mean pollards KO return for a TD was never truly shown off a commercial break, also IN OT i never saw our full first drive and it switched to anther game. What broadcast switches an OT game to the start of another PRE GAME show on a game on TG day game ??

maybe im hungover and in shock but feel like the nfl agenda was to have the raiders win yesterday..i feel it was rigged..i feel robbed, this is a gut punch.

Thats because you think other teams have a perfect team and Dallas has to have a perfect team in order to win.

That’s not the reality.

If Dak plays football like he did before Denver this is a championship team.

Expectations change and just because you felt one way before the season doesn’t mean it’s an excuse.

I had the Cowboys winning the division, winning the wildcard round, and then getting eliminated.

Expectations changed.

But acting like Dallas is weak in some area is ridiculous. They have the best roster in football and everyone knows it outside of Dallas. Only a few fans who watch nobody but the Cowboys think other teams have it better.

Right now we just desperately need our QB to go make some freaking plays.

Our Defense lost this game.. But Dak just isn’t getting done. And he has quit running with the ball. That was a part of his game that made him more of a complete QB. Now he is just a average QB. If he don’t start taking off and making the defenses account for it then we aren’t going any where. Last 2 games are just terrible. Almost ruined my day. But refused to let it. No more for me. After yesterday I know longer believe in this team. They start hot and then do the same thing every year. Sick of defending Dak.. And no reason for our Defense to keep us in a game one week and give up that many yards to a team that’s all over the place.. I know the refs handed the raiders points with the BS PI calls. But come on. Pathetic.

I agree, yes the Raiders had penalties but they were nothing like ours, like I said before timing is everything.

I would like him to play at that level. I know we are without key WRs but he does need to.put the ball on the WRs better. That said, our safety play is still suspect, and I think LG is our biggest weakness. Also, we need to have someone thats capable of filling in for Tyron Smith when he's injured as he does for a couple weeks a season. It's not a lot that we have to improve on, but that's just where my mind is at with that.

Yeah but you’re talking about guards and safeties.

Our guards and safeties are fine.

It’s a salary cap league. We all like to hate on Connor Williams but he’s the backup guard and could start for 90% of the league.

Our safety depth has never been better.

This team has everything. They need 40 million dollar QBs to step up and make plays.

S play has been a problem since DW, that is what you get when trying to put a band aid on a gun shot wound.

There is only one silver lining that I can see in all of this now, I STILL firmly believe that with a fully stocked team we can beat anyone in the NFL come playoff time. Be it at home or on the road. IF the refs allow the players and coaches decide the game on the field that is. This isnt over by a long shot.

It's not just the Raiders. The media likes it when we start looking good and then fall on our faces. It fits the narrative of people like Stephen A Smith who draws ratings on ESPN. So, the League has to appease ESPN. So, you see what's happening. To @CATCH17 point, we do need to overcome it, and coach needs to make sure the players dot their Is and cross their Ts the rest of this season. That's the best way to try to overcome that. Don't give the refs an excuse to try to screw us.

I am with you. The refs gave them points and called back a big Pollard run with a holding call that even Romo said there was nothing there. They gave the raiders 2 huge PI calls that happen all game long and are not called. But at the same time we played bad on Offense and even worse on Defense. With out Dak using his legs a few times a game we are just a average team at best. Injuries are bad and missing 2 star WR sucks. If we don’t have a full complement of talent then we aren’t going anywhere. I went to sleep right after the game and woke up mad..

I agree, but one thing the coaches should do in practice is go through fundamentals with the players. Make sure.they dot their Is and cross their Ts. This is the time of year when the officiating starts to really put the screws in on us. The less we make even close, the less the refs can call.

Jerry might have to write a check to someone. Not to rig games for us mind you,....just to see that games are called fairly is all. And yeah,....Im ONLY half kidding. ;)

Ill agree with that. He needs to step up like he did earlier I'm this season. Also, as I stated, the coaches need to go over fundamentals with the players. The refs are looking to screw us I think. They do this.every year. The less obvious mistakes we make, the less the stripes can call. It'll help if we're not trying to convert 3rd and 10+ because we got called for penalties.

Dak is falling on his face. He refuses to use his legs any more. I counted ALOT of times he had wide open space to run and could slide but he will just stand there and look for a receiver. It’s got to change. And Elliot is hurt. He needed to be on the bench. I hold out hope for this team but no longer expect anything..
