Game Day *** Cowboys vs Lions 2nd Half thread***

Looney trying to do his best Larry Allen impersonation, blocking 40 yards downfield on the screen.

I also agree with Terry in that I don't understand Dak's unwillingness to attack the middle of the field. Until he is able to attack that portion of the field, I'll have doubts about his capability.

Well, I was thinking about the same , why he is so hesitant to attack the middle but one thing is we dont have the master of down the middle catching (Witten) and a couple of times in the last game the ball got turned over.

Romo and Witten made that so simple

Let’s take the game over in the second half. It can be done by grinding it in the 3rd quarter. We can have there defense gassed by the 4th and it’s the Elliot show. Need a big first drive and a stop by our Defense.

Ridley with another touchdown catch. The rookie is balling

He’d just wasted here ...

 

[GenoT]

happy about Dak's stats so far, but, to be fair, 3 of his 6 completions accounted for 106 of his 134 yards (3 plays over 30 yds, including zeke's TD); it's a start, but need more consistency

Needs less drops...but nothing our JAGS-R-Us receiving corps shouldn’t be able to fix.

They're picking on Chido hard and the dude is in great coverage. These Detroit WRs just have damn good hands.

Golloday much bigger than Chido,Stafford is putting the ball where on his WR can catch it.

 

[Ken]

chido has been alright

He is playing great...no issues from me at all. You are going to give up catches in this league.

That's not just Dak. I was comlpaining about this even before Dak.

People need to realize he's just not a smart player. Athletic, I guess, but that's where it ends. Not seeing anything he's doing out there you couldn't get from Hitchens.

Romo did this too, Dak does need to improve his mechanics tho

Romo said he threw 100s of passes everyday — 365 days of the year.

Sounds like Dak needs to do the same.

 

[LocimusPrime]

Looks better than last year tho

I agree 100%. He does

 

[RodeoJake]

Keep going after Slay....where's Butler!?

He's serving drinks on the sideline

 

[cowboy_ron]

The Bears are stomping the Bucs.

Not on the level of our dominating beatdown of the lions

 

[Turkish-Cowboy]

Jaylon didnt play that bad. Trash? Absolutely not.

 

[tomsanders921]

Heath has had a terrible game so far. Defense isn't giving up a whole lot of points but are struggling to get off the field yo give more opportunities to our offense. Third down defense has been anemic so far

 

[cowboyec]

we get the ball to open 2nd half...make it count!!!!!
KEEP.
POUNDIN.
ZEKE.

 

[Keithfansince5]

Feature Zeke please

 

[guag]

Dak is having a better game, but he's STILL throwing off his back foot almost every play. How, after 3 years at the highest level of football, is he still doing this?

This IMO is Dak's #1 biggest correctable problem right now.

[MarcusRock]

Chido needs to play the ball, no fear because they will continue to target him...make them pay Chido...

Have you seen some of those routes? Playing the ball is not always possible. Sometimes you have to anticipate and get a hand in there and it's enough.
