Pump the breaks

[Sully]

No one is ever going to apologize for a WIN. For the fans, (which is short for fan-antic) only care about WINS.
While Owners/Players #1 concerns is getting paid, not winning.

With that, caution!
The FOOLS GOLD is now selling for fan-antics because of the win

But Dallas fans have seen this scenario for decades.....
Cowboys can only play the teams on their schedule. But we know the Cowboys beat losing teams and lose to winning teams
With that, Dallas should beat a hapless Buccaneers team without the starting QB: Baker Mayfielding .

Daron Bland was horrible vs Texans. And the OL was getting destroyed by the Texans DL. Prescott had little time to throw
Aubrey was better only because he didn't kick anything out of bounds on the kickoff. Missed (2) extremely long FG.
Dumb coaching decisions to kicks these with the OL getting mauled.
Pickens was basically invisible expect for one completed pass.( Which was a good reception).

On to Week 5 Thursday

The refs kept us in this game.

The refs kept us in this game.

Another good point....
When the refs help your team and win, no one ever acknowledges this fact.
When the refs call against your team, fans scream the refs cheated.

Texans actually defeated themselves

 

[CATCH17]

Take a look around the NFC & our own division.

The goal right now is collecting wins.

Style points don’t matter.

Win games, stay healthy, get better.

It’s tough right now.





I think for Dallas to ultimately win big in the post season the run game has to improve.

Texans DLine destroys everyone.

 

[kskboys]

The refs kept us in this game.

Yup. People forget that we took 8 plays to score from inside the 5 yard line.

 

[Cmac]

The refs kept us in this game.

.....but a penalty is a penalty. Isn't that what we want in a game?

 

[Bagman]

Texans DLine destroys everyone.

I agree. Last year is last yr but in 2025 the Texans had pretty much the best defense in the NFL. They're pretty darn good. 34 pts on THAT defense is an amazing accomplishment, no matter how it happens

 

[thunderpimp91]

There are serious issues but they won the game and really have nice position right now with Tampa coming up and a mini bye week after.

With a loss to Houston I would have been first on the train saying this team is done, but no matter how it looked they’ve bought themselves some time to get things corrected….assuming they take care of Tampa bay which I have little doubt they will.

On a scale of 1-10, Dak's protection was about a 6.5. And that is not bad against that D.

No matter who you're playing, the D will get to the QB at times. And that's when your QB needs to be able to beat the pressure.

 

[Whirlwin]

We won because of the referees, LMAO

 

[Whirlwin]

The refs kept us in this game.

Penalties, kept us in the game,

 

[CTcowboy203]

Texans d line is as good or better than any in the league- our 2nd half scoring output give me confidence. Defense still has a long way to go and bland was bad but a win is a win that’s an 0-3 team fighting for its life and the buc will be even more desperate

ignoring the reality of giving up 30 points to an offense like the Texans is just plain dumb

 

[kskboys]

They were a factor, twice giving us another shot when inside the 5 on that one drive.

 

[DasTex]

Penalties, kept us in the game,

This....it wasn't phantom calls - especially at the goal line. One was extremely clear holding and the other - his arm was wrapped around the WR waist the entire time (no matter what Olsen was saying).

 

[CATCH17]

Not ignoring.

Dallas has the pieces to get better. They just have to improve.

They have a banged up secondary with new pieces.

It’s all about growing & collecting wins.

Nobody is ignoring the defense but the goal is to improve & they got the guys to become mediocre at worst on defense & that’s all they need to be.


A better run game will improve a lot of things for this team. Including slow starts & keeping the defense off the field.

 

[TheCoolFan]

The rest of the NFC is terrible...the Cowboys should easily make the playoffs and maybe even win the division, even with all of their flaws. This is finally the year folks. Even if the Cowboys miss, they can't miss this season

 

[DuncanIso]

The refs kept us in this game.

Pickens has that off-man cover figured out.

Just run into the DB.

Easy 5 yd penalty. 8)

The Texans offense when Nico Collins is healthy isn't bad. They should have beat Buffalo the 1st game of the season...putting up 31 points.

I think too many were looking at the winless Texans as a bad team. They aren't.
