On the right side I see the starting quarterback for the #1 ranked offense both in points and yardage.
On the left I see the front cover of a Lucky Charms box.
Every season Murray comes out firing, looking like he's going to carry the team to the Super Bowl. Every season he flatlines December. He's just not built for the NFL. You can get away with a lack of size in college but you 've got to have body mass to take hits in the NFL. He wears down towards the end of seasons.
First 8 games of the season: 15-8-1
Last 8 games of the season: 6-14 (inactive for 3 games)
That's the tale of the tape:. Excellent college quarterback.......Short career as an NFL quarterback.

This is a tough one.
Murray is a better passer and very accurate, where he lacks is in Height so he's not able to see whole field all the time. He's a Joy stick player in the run game which is huge but also will cause him to have a quicker career in football.
Dak is a better leader and can read a defense. he's throwing with more anticipation now then earlier in his career. he still goes high on some of the balls thrown. He's No longer a runner he's a pocket passer/play action passer. he's gotten a lot better at every facet of his game he's a work a holic at the QB position.
after saying all of that i would rather have Dak. Murray is flashy with this throws and accuracy but when the game is on the line you want the leader to rally your team and push them down the field.

There you go again Plasticman just making good posts,,
Talents like Murray are short lived, but they are the aggregate.
They can punch the giant in the mouth a few times when the giant isnt paying attention, and gets distracted... possibly driving by a whataburger ,, but anyway I drifted there for a moment...
Lets not for one moment on Sunday forget where Murray is on the field of play, when you do that he turns 3 into 30.

I have this theory, not based in any factual data, just observation.
I think an opponent can sometimes sneak up on a veteran football team but it's more difficult to do that to a young team. I think this young Dallas Cowboys team just has too much fun whooping *** on an opponent. They don't know how to overlook an opponent. In fact, they can't wait to get back on the field and play again no matter who the opponent is or what's at stake
Do you remember Dak and Zeke's rookie season? They clinched the #1 seed and they still had two games left to play, against the Lions and Eagles.. Any other team would be resting their starters, keeping them safe from injury. Instead, those starters played most of the game as if it were the game they needed to clinch a playoff spot. It was 21-21 at the half and then the defense shut out the Lions in the 2nd half while the offense repeated their production of the 1st half and they won 42-21. It didn't mean anything to the playoffs but it meant something to them.
I feel the same vibe from this team.
Dan Quinn will have this team coached up when it comes to handling Murray. I think he will be on the bench halfway through the 2nd half.

Last year Arizona beat Dallas down 38-10. It was the first game minus Dak and the defense was absolutely gashed on the ground.
Kyle Murray had a couple deep TD passes, but he was 9/24 passing. That stat really surprised me. He won't have DeAndre Hopkins this time either.

Defensive edge number one philosophy vs the Cards and Murray should be number 1 priority ... contain edge, secure murray and make him become a pocket QB,, there he will fail miserably, Murray does not exist in the pocket and esp now wih no franchise WR.
This Cowboys defense must be dedicated and very calculated on when they actually do blitz,,, I bet Quinn knows this and employs less blitz packages Sunday.
Over aggresive highly athletic defenses are awesome weapon vs the Rodgers and Bradys of this league, but really quick small hobbits like Murray can punch large Orks in the nether regions.
Thats what we have become, like it or not,, I like to be big nasty drueling beasts on defense, but just know,, those hobbits survive, and we should be a little bit on a leash coming out is all.
I see this game as the patient chess player, taking some time and understanding his opponent, and how to attack when the time is right as the advantageous victor.
I see Dallas pulling away mid 3rd quarter and not giving anything back.

Couldnt agree more with what you posted, well said
Just want to see stable play from here until post season, and if we get just that we end up hopefully healthy and with the same current seeding,, I dont want to even get into that because I dont think it really matters, I dont even want the bye week because this team is young and hungry and we dont need it.
Let the Pack and old man Rodgers gladly have the week extra rest,,
Rest isnt always the key to success, especially when ravenous dogs are on the prowl,.
Yes Cowboys Nation, we are ravenous dogs that need no rest,, we are on the prowl!!!

Absolutely true, they ran all over the Cowboys last season.
But this Cowboys defense can tackle. I don't know if I've seen Parsons miss yet. And Kearse, he doesn't want to just tackle.
Last season I think it could be honestly said, this defense had no legitimate DT's. And the LB's were just shells of what they were in 2019.
