I was told last year to cheer up things could be worse.

We added talent I cheered up.

And sure enough the defense got worse.

I’ve been following this guy on YouTube for years. He’s entertaining but he’s just a fan like the rest of us. Now I’m not saying he’s incorrect. His opinion of it being really bad and is playing terrible is accurate but at the end of the day I don’t believe he has any insider knowledge. Good YouTube channel tho, he’s good at his job, I’d recommend him but I’m not ready to completely bail on the season with 16 games left. If this guy is making the same commentary after 13 weeks then we got problems

I don’t play madden anymore, but stopping the back out of the backfield is the first thing you learn or you’re terrible until.

I’m truly dumbfounded how an nfl or high school level coach can allow that more than once.

The four plays in a row is on CP not adjusting

A lot of great fans have passed away waiting on Jerry to Bring a SB back to Dallas. I bought the hype even though my senses kept telling me this Defense was still another year away from being a top 15 Overshown Im sorry dude but your made of glass Bland you looked good earlier in your career because we had a pass rush. Can these young coaches have this team playing Football for 4 qtrs? Are we still drafting Dumb players?

The Jones family has made embarrassing common place for three decades now. What's another year?

(In bold ^^^): Some of our own CZ brothers and sisters have passed away waiting on Jerry.. Shoot, I might not be around much longer either waiting on Jerry.

I've already moved on to the Commanders.

I'm much happier now.

Micah got Bland paid.

Everyone who says we wont that trade needs to take a look at our pass rush since he was traded.

Havne't seen this one on here as of yet...I keep telling myself it's just 1 game.....

I have tempered my thought a bit since the game. The Cowboys looked awful most of the night, especially on defense. Yup, that's got to get cleaned up and fast. But The Rams were the favorites to get to the SB and they got blown out worse than the Cowboys. It happens.

When you looked at the dropped passes, the INT, the 4 fumbles that the Cowboys only got 1, the blown coverages and other mistakes you have to believe that is not going to happen every week. Some weeks all those things will go Dallas's way and they will blow out some poor team facing them when that happens.

If there reason to be concerned? Yes, of course. We don't know that CP is capable of getting the issues fixed. We don't know if this will be one of those years when Dak makes lots of dumb mistakes. We don't seem to have the talent at DE or CB. But I do not think the game against the Giants was indicative of what the Cowboys are. We'll find out this week when the Giants face the Rams and the Cowboys face the Commanders.

Not in the sense you may mean.

Its been talked about by the players that communication on field on both sending and receiving was lacking.

At some point guys simply need to do their job.

Aside from that, 3 letters fixes everything.

Dude is trying way to hard to become a meme.

Its Thursday. Maybe its time to let game 1 go.

Where was the Micah pass rush in December and playoff games?

Right.
But then they will move on to wanting to lose game 2.

At some point we need to start admitting that the talent on defense has not improved.

I don't understand why this is such a mystery to some.

Tired, from going up against tackles all season.

You still going with this nonsense? In a 3-4, hes a beast. Too bad they changed AFTER he was traded

Go watch the Cotton Bowl.
