This game made me feel worse about the Cowboys because it took the refs denying EVERY single Chargers big play with a penalty just to get a walk off FG. The refs did everything they could to make that a 2TD win and it was a 3 point game.

Can you name another team that pays a franchise QB that much money, and then runs an offense similar to this garbage? That was about as conservative as it gets.

I’ll catch hell for this, but I think it was excellent coaching. Chargers were getting in our backfield with 4 guys and playing nickel all day. Cooper was bracketed all game, just like the threaded pass that barely got through. Rushing for over 200 helped the offense, the playaction, and a porous, short handed defense.

At the end, once we were in FG range, we were smart. 55 yards or 45 or 35….makes no difference with Zeurline. He kicks it straight or doesn’t. We avoided any chance of sack, penalty, turnover and tried to pull them offsides for an extra 5 yards. We were clearly going to kick it from there. That is playing for the win against a good defense on the road. I don’t believe for a second that was mismanagement, though you may not like it.

Kearse was a vision today. But a lot of his plays came because of the pressure from Parsons or attention paid to him. They were doubling him constantly. If we had a single other pass rusher worth a damn, Herbert would have spent half his drop backs on the turf.

I think parsons needs to stay at DE.

E definitely got lucky on multiple fronts, but still a really nice team victory. Very happy for the Gregulator. Game ball to him.

He DID! I'm his number one critic. There's hope for the young man after all...

I'm a medium well crow kinda guy, thanks

Maybe Steele is a game-day guy and not a practice guy. He looks much better during the game
