Sorry, Dallas lost but I did not feel Philly was head and shoulder above Dallas after this game was done. It was 1 game at their place, we turn the ball over 3 times and still made an impressive run at them. 1 Games does not tell an entire story, Cowboys get Eagles in Dallas and I'm looking forward to that meeting

Oh I already know you’re happy and I’ll say this those defensive moves looked good last night you want to talk about how they drafted JJ Artega Whiteside over DK Metcalf? Or Reagor over Justin Jefferson? Or how they completed whiff on the first round?

Roseman has been so great he got demoted in favor for Chip Kelly just to get his job back….

No one said he's great. He's had his issues. But you compared him to Jerry. Roseman won a SB in the last 5 seasons. Jerry has accomplished the impressive feat of three PLAYOFF WINS in two decades.

But yeah, Jerry is the better GM. Hahaha.

Rosemans team won a SB and because he mismanaged the cap they had to break the team up. Then gave Wentz a max deal just to draft Hurts who can’t throw. Roseman sucks lol. This is a joke. Jerry the owner is why his team hasn’t had more success. McClay and the scouts have done their nob.

I liked what I saw from Philly as a Cowboy fan. Everything I thought would happen did.


They couldn’t stop our run.
They can’t score in the second half of games.
Hurts still can’t throw.
Coaching is still suspect.

That bodes well for us.

Hahaha.

Even with Rush you claimed the Eagles were frauds and we continually said we would expose them. We didn't. It might be time for you to take a deep breath and look around and see that, unfortunately, there are teams better than us and that our margin for error is not that big.

I'm actually not that impressed with the Eagles win last night. Despite having 3 INTs and getting short fields, it came down to the 4th quarter and they won by 9 points to a backup QB who made too many mistakes and bad throws for the team to overcome.

I still think they are fraudulent. Good team. I will give them their flowers but nobody is scared of them. 11 games still to play. Hurts cannot throw the football.

Myself, Back breaker was with a wideopen Lamb deep down the field we have the int. I know Rush was hit as he threw it, but that int was the killer.

Yeah, Rush has been getting away with some INTs before last night's game and unfortunately for him and the Cowboys, his luck ran out at the worst time. If Cooper Rush was able to take care of the ball and had Kellen Moore decided not to throw on 2nd and short early in the game, then I believe the momentum and outcome of the game could have potentially been different.

The Eagles spent the offseason signing and trading to get better coming off a playoff berth in 2021. Sometimes that strategy works and sometimes it doesn't, but they are sitting at 6-0 right now, so we can only assume that their plan is paying off. The Eagles have had success doing this in the past and have a Super Bowl in 2017 to show for it.

The Cowboys hardly ever do any major signings or trades during the offseason and instead chose to try and fill needs in the draft, with cheap free agents, or plug and play guys that have been on the roster as backups in the past. We went 12-5 last year and instead of trying to build on that success by adding talent, we get rid of talent and deplete the roster and don't replace it with better or equal talent.

The game last night looked like a team that tried to get better and made it a priority going up against a team that didn't make the effort required to improve. Cooper Rush can be blamed until you're blue in the face, and yes he was horrible, but Cooper Rush even playing is just another example of the Cowboys organization not trying to improve a position of need and sticking with a guy their familiar with instead.
It looked to me that it was a team that had their starting qb vs a team that didnt.

We didn't play the way we needed to play. We went for it on 4th down deep in our zone.

They played our game and beat us at it.

Looked fairly evenly matched to me. Yes the Eagles improved but they had nowhere to go but up.

I can't say what would have happened had Dak been in the game on that pass play. QB was hit as he released it. I do know Lamb was wideopen as the defender slipped and was open down the sideline. In my view that was back breaker in the game.

Hey dont forget the two combined tackles by their amazing first and second round picks!!!!

They also have the "best dl in the league". and we rushed it down their throats all night and didn't give up a sack. Not bad for our "terrible" OL.

Their OL is "best in the league" but they had to run a college offense to keep their qb upright after he was sacked 4 times.

So much the naysayers were wrong about but hey ..we lost so the eagles are amazing.

No strenght or depth in the QB room is on the front office. Setting aside any thoughts on Dak, the team badly needed, but didnt sign an experienced veteran #2 QB during the offseason. This was a glaring need. Started the seasom with only 1 x QB on active roster - this is nuts (if a QB is on the practise squad, they are not #2 quality).

Well, we must be really bad if we lost to that team by 2 scores, huh?

everybody is waiting for the savior dak to return got news for you he's just a very little tick above rush, and keep in mind his performance under pressure of over throwing and under throwing not much of an improvement. jerry turned 80 his chances of seeing a super bowl with dak at the helm is looking pretty bleak, so get used to the eagles winning the nfc east and jerry or little jerry telling you wait till next year and things will be different i say more of the same like last year and the 25 years before that , they use smoke and mirrors to fool you . hamburger mike said last year he was gonna clean up his and the teams mistakes like stupid penalties has that happened no and of course his game management hasn't gotten any better so they will beat up on hurting or teams with bad coaching but in the end along with us they will be watching the other teams in the final game of the season won't they

LOL, Jerry has done the same thing. We had to get rid of players this past offseason because we had cap constraints.

Again, HE HAS THREE FREAKING PLAYOFF WINS IN 20 YEARS.

That's literally one of the worst GM jobs ever. Most regular GMs don't even last nearly that long delivering three playoff wins in two decades.

You're letting your homerism cloud rational thought here.

Getting Dak back helps. The bloom was always going to fade on Rush. He just has a ceiling and he reached it.

The biggest issue going forward IMO other than Dak's health, is the run D. It's inexcusable in that situation with all the momentum to just let a team grind your ***** into the turf like Philly did in the 4th Q. Unfortunately, there isn't much we can do about. Our DTs are our DTs.

Ya, that was surprising that they were able to do that when we needed the stop the most. I have to believe we will get that squared away and that the defense was worn down at that point after being put on the field so much.
