I’ll just leave this here.


I think that percentage even higher before saints game ?? Was it pressure of playing in the Superdome for 1st time ? Or for the first time this season that the offense just simply not click? I guess we'll find out tomorrow

Hold on. Let me check with pappy and the boys



Yes. Almost exactly right. A little more bitterness is all you need to be perfect.
It pains me to see posters so fixated that they cannot talk about anything else than 1 topic and in only one way.
I would not want to hang out with them.

I imagine them in a studio apartment, with only a dirty couch, several cartons of cigarettes, red lipstick, and at least 500 pictures of Dak Prescott with his face mutilated tacked to all over the walls

I agree in principle. As much as most want to pin this on Dak to justify or degrade his worth, we could critize the entire team. Kellen Moore’s play calls were horrendous, exp in the run game where Zeke ran up the middle the entire game. It was very uncharacteristic compared to the previous three games. Yeah, the defense held on, but Quinn seemed to be the only bright spot. We’re still not getting turnovers. The OL, comprised with nagging injuries, were exposed. The WR’s have looked lost without Gallup.

All that said.. if people will look at the game objectively.. Even though the game plan looked vanilla and Dallas played poorly, Dallas had plenty of opportunities to Win a game they lost by a measly 2 points:
  • Yes, Dak could have hit Cobb in the back of the endzone while throwing across his body on the run.. but he didn’t. That’s on Dak.
  • Dallas was driving past mid field when Witten uncharacteristically fumbled the ball. Had he held on.. a field goal or possible a TD seemed inevitable
  • Dallas rolled the dice on a 4th and 1.. Zeke got the first down, then “fumbled”.. which we all know wasn’t a fumble. Replay proves it.. do we score on that drive also?
  • And let’s not forget Dak was driving down the field on the last possession to put our kicker in position for a FG, but we ran out of time. The ten second run off due to the Tyron Smith injury and the mysterious ‘2 sec pass’ for the Saints to score was all “home field advantage”.
My point, everyone wants to pin the Saints game on Dak.. cool. The real story.. the entire team was responsible for that loss. As poorly as the team played, we could have easily won that game.

Unless you got this stat from 'USA Today' I don't think it's legit.

Really nice post.
I agree with you.

But my point was about posters who just talk about one thing and in one way. Over and over and nearly exclusively.
It's boring and becoming unreadable.

You are definitely not a part of that group.
