Game Day *** Cowboys vs Falcons post game thread ***

Not really sure what you mean when the game was won on the back of ST executing. Not really sure what you would attribute that to other than coaching, especially if you have seen our ST over the last decade. In fact I cannot think of the last time our ST made a play that meaningfully affected the outcome of a game.

Well, predictable fake punt at their own 29 down 14-0. Luckily held Falcons to 3. 17-0

Another fake punt attempt at their own 43 . When Atlanta crowded the line, even they knew it was coming on 4th and 5. Why did they not call it off? Down by two scores. Luckily Atlanta only got 3 again. But now the Cowboys were down by three scores.

I'm happy they won. Amazed Atlanta's ST unit is so dumb not to just jump on the ball. All Atlanta had to do was kick that spinning ball out of bounds.

Starting LT - out
Starting RT - out
Starting TE - out

Dem Boyz STILL dropped a 40burger!! Just wait until we get our bookend pro bowl Tackles back

how did Knight do on LT?...did he hold up OK?

From everything I saw Knight was actually pretty good. But those first couple of drives I remember seeing a lot of pressure from the left or right (wasn't necessarily LT though, could've been LG too) but I did note that the pressure started to go away when Takk McKinley got hurt.

Amazing we’re in first place after such a tenuous start to the season. Next week is gonna be rough though, the Hawks are gonna put up 30+ against us. The offense is gonna have to ball out like they did in the second half today.

I thought we were tied for 1st. Washington is 1-1 also.

Stuff happens. The Cowboys aren't the only team that makes mistakes. That's why they have to play the games.
