By the end of the first quarter I told my wife the season is over. She laughed and said there is still 3/4 of the game left and we are playing good. I felt it slip away.

I am a homer for my team and make bones about it but in recent years I have also became a realist about it.

Our #1 ranked Defense was propped up with popsicle sticks and the fact that our line was getting a push. When we got no push mariota picked us apart. Just like any other qb would. Heck Dak could pick our Defense apart.

THEY CELEBRATED ON OUR STAR!!! That should have been a bench clearing brawl. And yet hardly nothing. I think Jones gave a little shove. Jaylon on that attempted tackle? WTH.

The first few minutes looked like we were going to roll over this team. But after Dak throws a int by trying to force the ball to Cooper (who didn’t see that coming) we had nothing.

Linehan and the playcalling just got worse. The carries for Elliot went out the window.

The season isn’t mathematically over but trust me, it’s done. We now go on a losing streak. Yet another year torn apart.

JJ has to do something and he is gathering with SJ to see who they can fire without it being JG.

I think we are starting to see the team give up on JG and in coming weeks it will become apparent for all to see.

This lose was the season. Was our chance to climb back into the East.

I really do WANT to care about the team and get worked up over losses and get super excited when they win. But it's just not there for me right now.

No matter how good they sometimes play, the reality is that, as currently constructed, this team is going nowhere.

Unless they get lucky and find a real QB somehow, the Cowboys will be a non-contender for the next 4-5 years.

This season was over before it started. Poor coaching, poor player procurement and an overall lack of urgency are plaguing this organization.
Guessing JG will be HC till the end of season. Wish JJ would do it now along with Linehan but that would be admitting he is wrong.

Same. I used to be upset the next day after a loss. This morning, I really couldn't care less.

Staring to realize with a limited QB and current playcalling that Dak isn’t going to be the one.

Honestly no, I thought we would win for 3 quarters despite the poor play.

I think Jaylon thought he was going to slide and let up - I have no explanation otherwise for that play! after the penalty on LVE

well I felt the game was wasted at that point we had the momentum from the defense then the offese misses a FG, throws and INT and at that point I felt they LET Titans get energy..take controla nd slowly stick the stake in.. play calling was horrible as Booger was saying we need to do more RISK plays on first down and right after 3 straight runs..

Lol. I still had hope. But this trash our staff is putting out there isn’t going anywhere.

Yep we gave the momentum away and it’s like we never tried to take it back.

Kellen Moore as qb coach, letting Dez and Witten go and finding no replacements. That told you how the season was going to go. Just look at preseason. EVERYBODY regressed. Cooper rush went from having arguably the best preseason last year to looking like utter garbage this year. Unlike other teams, how we play in preseason is how we play in regular season because we use the same basic offense.

Yup. Pretty much sums it up.

I felt it. I told my wife the same thing, after the 3rd quarter. I knew we didn't have the fight in us. The coaching is stale, the oline stinks and is a liability,the QB is a work in progress to be kind, and the play calling is atrocious. I see no hope whatsoever. Jerry was on espn saying he is keeping Garrett lmao...this was after the game. I am resigning myself to the cold hard facts.We will not win anything until the Jones' are all gone...which means, the next 30 years or so. By then I will be in a pine box taking my dirt nap. That's a sad reality guys. It hurts to admit that.

I feel you glimm. I knew it was over. The QB play and coaching has shown it will not change at all. The season isnt mathematically over but I mean c'mon, we are more than likely losing to the eagles and falcons and those are conference games.

Its over.
