Jerry says Cowboys should have gone for it on 4th & 1

[Bleu Star]

With 1:44 left on the Raider goal line, Jerry feels we should have pounded it in. What say you?

 

[Playmaker247]

Yes we should have

 

[Pants]

JJ, couldn't put his drink down quick enough to stop the clapper - it worked out - this time

 

[Dre11]

Yes we should have

That would've been dumb and everyone would be crying, we should've taken the points.

 

[Teague31]

With a real defense? Yes
With the ridiculous unit we currently field? No

 

[Ranching]

Even JJ know, Garrett sucks

 

[links18]

I think Jerry publicly undermining his coach is probably why we will never have a real coach.

But, Link?

A bad defense is even more reason to go for it. Trust your offense to get a yard, rather than trusting your defense to keep them out of field goal range.

I can't believe I'm saying this but Garrett was right. You go for it and don't make it and all they need is a FG to win. We don't have Zeke to ram it in there and our defense is still suspect.

Tuna will be the last good HC we see in Jerry's lifetime.

No linky allowed. Google it.

What's more likely? Us scoring from a yard out? Or Oakland getting into FG range from inside their own 1?

 

[SDCowboy]

Of course we should have.

 

[Bleu Star]

Jerry loves to keep things interesting. I'll say that about him.

yes

 

[RoboQB]

I agree with Jerry.

If Anthony Brown catches that pick, it looks like Garrett made the right call... but he didn't and
now Oakland only needs to get close to tie. Although their kicker missed a short one earlier, it felt like the Raiders were easily going to be in position to take it into overtime with momentum.

The deep route they rendered a 55 yard penalty was a great call by the Raiders.
If Carr doesn't get greedy, Oakland wins the game.

And if you don't get it? You trust your D to not let them get in fg range. You people don't think.

If and buts...smh

It's easy to say now. If we tried and didn't make it the anti Garrett threads on the Zone would be through the roof. The Cowboys offense wasn't exactly running smooth during the second half.

 

[cowboy_ron]

And if we would have gone for it and not made it Jerry would have said we should have kicked the FG and not have gone for it.

BTW, taking the points and not risk getting no points was the correct decision.....it's not like we were moving the ball at will against them.
