Game Day ***Cowboys vs Packers post game thread***

[runback22]

No one is talking about how we get screwed by the schedule makers. Last two teams get mini byes. The Eagles get a full buy before they play us. We played on Monday night while the Rams get a mini bye. That's the problem.

Yeah, I'm still going to go with horrible coaching and a high school defense over scheduling issues.....

Him scoring worked out wonderfully for us didn't it.

This doesn't even sound right. We needed to score. You take the score when you can get it.

Dak did the right thing. The two incomplete passes before that were the problem.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Dak goes down at the one and in the next play something bad happens or the O turns the ball over. The Packers get a goal line stop somehow and then threads on this board would be blaming Dak for losing the game

Yeah I dont know who would think that dak taking a knee there is a good idea.

 

[tyke1doe]

It is not on Dak; Dak did "enough" to win. However giving Aaron Rodgers 1:18 at the end of the game is also "enough" to lose - obviously.

Yes, they should have run the clock down. But that's on the coaches.

That fade on 2nd and 1 is one of the worst calls I've ever seen. Even if it works you give them the ball back with too much time.

Correct and it just might have cost us the game by stopping the clock...If Zeke ran the ball and was most likely stopped it would have forced them to use last timeout to stop the clock...they probably would have gotten the ball back with less then 40 sec on clock...

The obvious difference there is the eagles were winning

Yeah, I was yelling at Dak to just kneel.... Not his fault the team lost.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Sorry, but to me it all adds up. These are players who get tired and can't overcome everything. If the refs are allowing teams to selectively get away with stuff then it affects competitive play and it effects outcomes especially in a league where talent discrepancy isn't that significant.

I totally agree, just saying that in the last two games, the Cowboys did a very good job of losing the games on their own.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

I am 99% sure GB let Dak run that TD in.

No they didn't. They were all pissed off about it.

 

[Zman5]

I know folks are upset about the coaching, but can we finally have a real discussion about how horrendous our oline is this season?

I think I saw Collins on the ground getting in Zeke's way more than blocking someone. He has been terrible. I at least thought he'd be a good run blocker.

 

[Cmac]

All you 20 year old fans. This used to be a great team. It really was.

....and it had playmakers. No turnovers again.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

This doesn't even sound right. You needed to score. You take the score when you can get it.

And that's why we lost. Did GB winning really surprise anybody when you left them over a minute left with this defense?

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

No they didn't. They were all pissed off about it.

or were they?!?

 

[knightrider94]

Is Tony Romo ready to be a coach yet?

 

[Gator88]

Naw, they have been flat out horrible this season. The offense put up 30 points (today) because of Dak's mobility.

No, you must have forgot what it was like with Costa, and what the Giants/Seahawks have. Offensive line play isn't that great on average. What the Cowboys have done is honestly closer to the top than it is to being horrible.

 

[The Natural]

Apparently we haven't learned our lesson about giving the ball back to Rodgers with time on the clock.
Heads should roll tomorrow but wont.

Stupid is as stupid does.

At the end of the day we let Rodgers go 75 yards for a TD with a minute and change. If old man Marinelli isnt up to the task of shutting this clown down get his butt up outta here and find a coordinator who is

 

[Fizziksman]

Is Tony Romo ready to be a coach yet?

probably the only person that could get Jerry to part ways with Garrett.

 

[Cmac]

Heres my not so bold prediction, The Giants Catch the Cowboys

I'd be scared to take that one....GMen just might. Embarrassing!!!!!!!!!

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Hey Rod, a team went for it on their own side of the field on 4th down in the 3rd qtr. How do you feel about that?

 

[tcc0808]

Yeah I dont know who would think that dak taking a knee there is a good idea.

Better than giving an offense you haven't stopped in last 2 games 1:18...... Because those both worked out well...
