No Gregory or DLaw against the Chargers and their young QB and receivers….Good luck!

The good news is we have a winnable 5-6 games after the chargers game. Maybe the defense actually plays average and we’re say 6-4 ? when Lawrence gets back? We’ll have everything to play for….the two players we can’t lose on Def were Diggs and Parson IMO.

I agree. The offense proved it can carry the load against the SB champs, even if it's strictly through the air. The defense just needs to be average, which is about top ceiling for that unit, healthy or not.

Look at you! Nice with the optimism. All kidding aside you make a good point.

No matter the condition of the team, we're still playing for the NFC East Title, to then face teams in the Playoffs. And you know the Jones's ... "We have a chance to be in the SB... until, we don't."

But winning a SB????

Defense Wins Championships, if the kicking is reliable.

It’s always something with this franchise. Always someone hurt. Always an excuse

At the end of the day, the Cowboys lose. It’s what they do.

This roster is too top heavy. When you pay a handful of guys the majority of the cap money, you then have to fill in the gaps with scrubs. Its a viable strategy until those scrubs have to actually play.

Maybe I'm just numb to all of the drama with this team, but I'm not panicking over a defense that couldn't do jack with starters. Worst case scenario, we can't do jack with backups. It's all on Dak this season, as we knew it would be. Score 30-40, or lose.

Good point.

This team was constructed to be a high octane offense that would just outscore the other team. Problem is that you have to score at least 35 points a game to win like that in the NFL. We scored 29 against the Bucs and lost.

Ugh...nothing surprises me anymore with this team.

Let's hope Basham turns into Robert Quinn for us this year.
