We had lost 15 straight games after falling behind 7 or more points until Monday night at NY. But this trend continues .

We simply are a team built to run the ball and get off to fast starts. We obviously struggle overcoming if we don’t score early. Even though we continue to fight staying in the game.

So, not only is stopping our running game a recipe for success but putting us in an early scoring hole.

That isn't right, we were down 7-0 to the Giants and Commanders in week one and two.

the coaches need to stop putting the offense in bad situations by running so often on first downs if it isn’t working.

But I thought Moore was the Savior? I guess Garrett is sabotaging . Lol

You’d think with this All World OL and best RB we could force our will?

Why is it the better teams can stifle our running game?

You would think.

it would be easier for them to do so if the defense didn’t know exactly what was coming.

I did a little research last night & saw that the 'Boys have scored first in only 3 of this years games.

Our All World talent on OL and RB should be able to dictate and dominate:)

Surely they aren’t over rated?

1. I never said that. Don’t attribute arguments to me that I never said.

2. It’s also up to the head coach to ultimately make the game plan and help make adjustments in game. Especially an offensive coach on the offensive side of the ball.

But it’s been a common theme this year. Well, when it works.

And Jerry specifically told everyone to stay out of Moore’s way.

Surely you’re not one of those fans who blames Garrett for losses but no credit for wins?

I’m not.

But Let me know when Garret actually wins something. I’ve been waiting for a while now.

if he wants to go ahead and win a Super Bowl I am prepared to kiss his butt.

The better defenses have a winning scheme and formula to beat the Cowboys. Stop the run and make Dak beat you. And get off to a quick start making them abort running game.

Dak made a valiant effort to come back. It’s just not enough.

We have most of our assets on OL and RB. If you stop that it makes it tough for us.

In big games against good teams (and this was a big game imo) we get down early (sometimes by multiple scores). Fight to get back in. And make bone headed decisions in the 4th to lose the game.

It's been that way for a long time.

It's the coaching staff and the culture.

Once you take winning a SB out of the expectations you can begin to get a clearer picture.

And this isn’t just about Garrett winning something. It’s about this franchise winning something. Garrett is just an influencing puppet in the mix.

Forget winning anything under Mr. Jones.
