Game Day *** Pre-season Cowboys vs Texans postgame thread****

[RoboQB]

So, 2-5 for 22 yards and 1TD.

Should we start a poll to see what everyone thinks? Smh

The 1st incompletion looked like it was on Dak unless the route
was a curl. He threw it behind Gallup.

The 2nd incompletion was PI, causing the timing to be off just a half tick.
Would've been a sweet catch. The refs chose not to call a penalty.

The 3rd pass was completed.

The 4th pass, and third incompletion was interesting. A learning point for
the near future to watch for. Dak wanted Pollard to turn up and go from the flat.
Look for that to possibly be a big play when the games count. Just simply
telling the kid what do to when a play breaks down a bit.

The 5th pass. Paydirt! The pocket collapses and Dak steps up to run... no, he hits
Gallup for six! Nice little scramble drill there, which is what I believe is Dak's best asset.

I don't think a guy should get berated for simply saying a QB didn't look good
after going 2-5 for 22 yards and 1 TD. I mean, we should have rules to prevent this. (lol)
There are three games to compare. He was 9-9 in those other two games.

If the poll selection options were Good and Not Good
and you grade from game to game. Which one would you pick without explaining
what you saw? 2 for good, 1 for not good (he did some good things though).

But I digress.
It sure was fun to watch OUR team pummel someone else's team.
Joe Thomas almost had a pick-six after blocking a punt and scoring a td.
I enjoyed watching him play tonight.
Donovan Wilson just might be a steal of sorts. Just seeing a late round player
continue to show up is fun to watch.
Of course, Taco, but he's already got his own thread.
Malik Collins, Armstrong, Hyder, all those boys played great tonight.

That was a really impressive "heads up" T.D. connection from the #4 to #13


* and my (pet cat) one man wrecking crew #48 definitely put the hurt to Houston on that scoreboard

Rush was slinging it around like a gangster

I miss the old days too when there were not as many ignorant posters. Now you and other are flooding the site.

Oh pipe down! @Bizwah is usually a rather level-headed poster. Having spoken with him before, I can vouch for him not being anti-Dak. He's usually rather level-headed.

So let me get this straight. If you like someone you cant say that they had a bad night or it means you no longer like them?

What a ridiculous statement to make. Good players have bad nights. Pointing that out doesn't make you a hater, it makes you objective. I didn't see the game so not passing judgement on that but just reading the above, you're reaction was a little too over the top to what he originally said (imho of course).

I didn't see the game either as I was working (though, management was nice enough to allow me to track the play by play on my mobile) tonight. But, from what I gathered, it was a miss on the play in question. Now, Dak did do well on the TD pass. It sounds like it was quite a good throw. But bad throws happen. Nothing to worry about. Didn't stop us from steamrolling the Texans. 34 to Nil has a jolly good ring to it, doesn't it?

Dak is sweating lol

Rush was slinging it around like a gangster

ya he was,like a crimsoned haired footballin' fiend on shore leave, with some solid flat trajectory +20 yarder connections Too

Negative people like yourself are a pet peeve to me. I enjoy outing them.

Man alive, you really ought to try lighten up in the judgemental dept. with that overbearing & obviously impetuous nature of yer's, Jake definitely ain't no negative poster by a long shot.

 

[Melonfeud]

“Slight miscommunication?”

ya,,,it lives right next door to "clerical error"

 

[jnday]

At the least it means he’s either always negative, ignorant or a hater. We’ll see over the next couple of days on who was to blame for those 2 passes.

From your responses, you are either arrogant, close minded, a blind homer, lack reading comprehension or a combination of those things. I have read some dumb post from you , but these posts take it to a new level. Chill out. I know real Dak haters because I am one. This dude is not a hater at all.

 

[Silverstar]

Defense played an outstanding game with 8 sacks, 10 QB hits, 7 TFL's and 2 INT's. A shutout game without DLaw, Crawford, Quinn, Jones and Heath even playing. The depth on this years defense is looking awesome!

Donovan Wilson is looking like a steal in the 6th round as well.

You think you're outing others, but really you're just outing how pathetic you are spending all that time obsessively berating others for every perceived infraction of "negativity" they commit. You fancy yourself some type of CZ masked crusader making an example out of all these "haters", when the rest of us just see you as a sad and mentally deranged lunatic that can't let go. I bet you're a hoarder.

No only the haters feel that way about me. And that’s good.

You come off as a clown. Have fun banging on your keyboard.

He is a clown.

I'm not a Dak-hater, so don't take what I say as Dak-hating. I think he's a solid QB. But he wasn't good tonight. Not horrible....just not as good as he was the last two games.

You are soo wrong and you are a Dak hater obviously because the 1st pass was a bad route by Gallup and the 2nd pass was a PI but Gallup still should’ve caught the ball. Quit looking at the stats and watch the freakin game.

Rewatching the game now. The first miss was definitely the two of them on different pages, though it's hard to know who ran the right play. The second miss should've been called PI, and I disagree that Gallup "should've" caught it anyway. I think if the defender hadn't made contact, Gallup may have been off to the races on that one.

Either way, I wouldn't say Dak didn't play well so far. At this point he may or may not have thrown to the wrong route.

That said, I can see where someone could see it the other way, without the benefit of a second viewing.

You'd make a great politician. Good observations.

Nah, I'm not a good liar.
