If we don't spot Carolina a new set of downs early in the game and kept the drive alive on 4th down the entire game could have unfolded differently.
True. It’s quite possible we could’ve even gotten into double digits on offense!

Been faithfully watching my Boys since 1974 and I can unequivocally tell everyone here that our COACHING STAFF is the SOLE REASON we have failed for the past 20+ years.

I don't need to add fancy stats OR comparison charts OR draft picks OR injuries OR depth charts or any other peripheral excuse that many JG lovers try to convince themselves with. We were usign the same excuses when we had Tony, Dez, Murray, Witten...are you kidding me !?!?!? STOP blaming DAK or anyone else!....maybe if DIpSH^#^# JG hadn't traumatized Dak by allowing CHAZ green to completely DEMORALIZE any confidence in our young QB by opening a flood gate of brutal sacks, maybe we would have the "old Dak" back......who knows, but the point is COACHING SUCKS for past 10 years. Period!

The LOGIC is indisputable. Wipe away all the glossy excuses and annual rationales (missed draft picks, injuries, Dak poor passing ) that makes you feel better! BE HONEST and ASK YOURSELF THIS QUESTION. If we kept everything EXACTLY as it is now or has been in ANY of the last 10 years, final 53, entire coaching staff, owners, FO, etc...same talent, same injuries, same staff, same drafts....every single thing the same and only made ONE CHANGE.......replaced RED-HEADED BUFFOON with Bill Belichick.....we would have had AT LEAST THREE Superbowl rings under our past talent (JW, TR, DB, DM)....over the past decade alone! Logically you can conclude that our HC is the problem.

I challenge any rational objective fan to disagree. Folks we have stunk in a sea of mediocrity for YEARS because of ONE THING - our despicable, inept, incapable HEAD COACH, who is a puppet, a figurehead at best.....a man-child that makes $6mill a year to do WHAT?!?! clap and pat butts and congratulate our players when they fumble or drop a pass or punt the ball away?

Bill Belichick's THIRD STRING could beat our starters, because he PREPARES, COACHES, MENTORS, TRAINS his ENTIRE team, game plan contingencies and scheme for success. EVERY position, EVERY string! He runs a very strict and tight ship, holds his team and individual performance ACCOUNTABLE for their actions. He can take any under-performing player and strategically mold them or cut them fast. STEALTH COACHING

JG is much more interested in being the player's "friend" than their coach or disciplinarian. At the NFL level, this approach has never and will NEVER work. Under JG, we will never, ever, ever make it our of mediocrity. The culture is already ingrained. No matter how much RAW TALENT we acquire, as long as that HC puppet fool is here, we are doomed.......no one will convince me of anything different. There is no discipline or accountability or pride or preparation or toughness or aggression.

Until you remove JG...no matter WHAT talent we bring on this team...we can get Tom Brady tomorrow.....JG will find a way to undermine our success...we are DOOMED folks

Breaks my heart.......

The next 3 are arguably winnable. But I don't expect to go into Houston and win there. With Clowney, Watt, and that other maniac running around out there, Dak will be running for his life all game.

Again, to the last sentence.

We get to double digits if we don't miss the field goal. It's not hard to fathom us scoring 17 points in that game, even playing as bad as we played.

They are winnable, but it's pretty clear if something doesn't change that we're not going to be a contender this year. Our offense isn't good enough to put up enough points against good defenses. Now, we're without Frederick, our starting left guard has a lot to learn and our passing game could sort itself out, but right now, we don't have enough offense to support that defense when playing other good defensive teams.
yur right , something has to change, lets see if they do change, and how they do against giants and seattle.
I wouldnt read a llot into this first game which was basically our "practice PS warm up" game.

how did you come to that conclusion?? I don't see it happening with this OLine and same ole crap play calls!
This was a warm up game, since they dont do anything in ps it is done in the first game and they played a really good team in their stadium in the rain.
It wont be this bad next game.

I hope you're right, I'm banking on them doing something different.
Oh wait, been waiting for 8 years...only thing changed is the name on the jerseys

Lol. I can't even begin to fathom the logic that goes into thinking we can win the next 4 after seeing that debacle. That's not optimism, it's madness.

That is more complicated than over-reaction fans can comprehend.

I think the Cowboys can win any of the next 4 games.
Maybe they can win all 4 and be 4-1
win 3 and be 3-2
at worst, hopefully lol they win 2 and are 2-3.
The Giants lost today, havent seen their game yet, but now both teams will be desperate to win
next week.
Dallas is at home, so no travel and maybe they can play better on offense and win.

The good thing about today was the defense proved they are going to be good, they
had the goal line stop and turnover , and kept dallas in the game to the end.

What was bad was the play calling and game plan, and no spy on Cam was just plain stupid.
It was Cam taking off on runs that helped Carolina keep drives alive and get their offense going.

Also Elliot only had 15 carries lol and that is just plain stupid too. it should be 25-30.
He is their best weapon and they dont know how to use him.

But all that said I still think Dallas can beat any or all of the next 4 teams
0-5. Book it. Tony ain’t savin’ our bacon.

This defense will be tested for sure. Tbh the panthers have on of the worst offenses we play all year. Houston and the giants probably have better defenses than dallas also.

No way the Giants D is better. Where?

Houston is a push or slight edge to them.

Well I say they win at least 2 of first 5 probably 3 of 5, and possibly 4 of the 5.
Anything is possible, it is the NFL.
Who thought TB would score 48 and beat NO ?? anyone ??
Cleveland tying pitt and would have won if not for blocked FG.
Cowboys are bad with our goofy coaches and owners, but they are not 0 - 5 bad.

yeah the houston defense isnt all that good, watt is not what he used to be and wade isnt DC anymore.

Well in JJ's defense, he DID register 4 sacks on Sunday. He might be as good as ever, but the rest of the unit has fallen a bit IMO.
