The Cowboys got their a sses handed to them at the line of scrimmage yesterday on both sides of the ball and that's how you win playoff football games. The Niners were by far the more physical team and they have a shot at doing even more damage in the playoffs because they can control the line of scrimmage just like the Cowboys used to do in the early '90s when they used to just embarrass teams physically.

I think most of us who are being honest about the team figured they would be manhandled upfront. This is why many were picking the 49ers to win yesterday because they’re physical and we’re not. Several teams including Denver manhandled us upfront. The only two playoff teams we beat New England and Philly got hammered yesterday. The Cowboys continue to be pretenders. Whenever they’re fortunate enough to make the playoffs they get exposed.

Yep. I told my inlaws who I was watching the game with that the first possessions on both sides will tell the tale. They came out a rammed it down our throats and the other side, they was able to pressure Dak with only 4. I didn't move from my chair until we stopped them on 3rd down on their last drive. We was all high-fiving then someone said there's a flag. That was the holding call on Gregory. I didn't show any emotion after that. I think we come back and win if Gregory doesn't make that boneheaded mistake. 30 more seconds and we win that game. That's what that flag cost us.

I thought the D played really well especially in the second half. They only have up a short field TD. The Oline? They suck. Williams and Biadiz are awful. Collins is too fat to be a RT. Tyron is old

Been saying it all season. It’s issue # 1. The team is full of front runners that roll over when the going gets tough.
