This was absolutely atrocious. But clearly, some of you guys weren't around in the 80s. Look up 85 Bears-Cowboys game.

I was there with my Mom. 30+ years STH at Texas Stadium. Cowboys were terrible in the late '80s. Spoiler alert** Bears beat the Cowboys 44-0.

There's no hype to return to the old days. We need more than 3 ypc. We got them. Then let him sit to see what Tony could do. Missed blocks, at least on penalty on the o-line from his confusion and some lack luster running.

Sorry for the name calling. Your Zeke take is ....well...we disagree let me just say that.
So we came this far and I agree with
with your points. Now let me finish with Zeke is just a great blocking smash mouth RB now that is ideal for tough yard gains or at the goal line. But if he gets that huge gap he's not taking it 50+ yards to the house. Which is why IMO is no longer a complete RB which to me is n
not a starter..

So who do we have that CAN take it to the house? Pollard didn't. AND he got our QB smashed. That's worth it to you?

I am not saying he got Dak's hand broke. But he did let Dak get hit a couple times.....letting them come up the middle is BAD SHTUFF.

Our O-line is a SHAMBLES...we need Zeke right now. Pollard's gonna get QB killed. We should thank our lucky stars we have him. And curse ourselves for having that FF Moore.

Not even over reacting. (Specifically Cowboys)

There was nothing positive about the offense, except for Zeke being consistent on first down.

But Dak looked awful.

Receivers looked awful.

Absolutely terrible all around.
Remember in 2017, Dallas and Dak set a record by going three straight games without scoring a TD.
Just sayin

Agreed I guess my post should of had more details....I'm just annoyed about the media and hopeful Cowboys pretending that Zeke looks fast and healthy for this season is bull. I'm should of made my point that we need to draft our future RB in this draft. Zeke will never be that guy again

What guy do you want him to be? Some one that can't help our crappy o line protect the qb. Good call we'll just keep burning 40 million dollar qbs and the burger flippers to replace them.

Not sure what you want.....Zeke was tearing them up then Moore benched him. What would emmitt do with 12 carries? No....I'm serious....you need to get rid of this bs Zeke hate and find the right culprit to blame.

Emmitt took it to the house.... how often,? How old are you?....12,?

Yet you sat here and watched it. You told no one nothing shut up.
There were several that were vocal about the lack of talent at receiver and depth along the offensive line. The general response was either "shut up and color", "stop being a hater", or "give them a chance".

It's disappointing that those concerns came to fruition, but it wasn't difficult to see this coming. QB1 struggled before Cooper came on board and the concern was that history would repeat itself. It seems that is the case. There was just too much turnover on that side of the ball in one offseason. Maybe they get it together, but it's going to ne a bumpy ride.

This is what you get when a QB disappears in the second half of last season and doesn't play in one preseason game to get his feet wet coming into a " Have to have it" season. All we read was how focus Prescot was and how he and his receiving corp worked out all off season. Prescot has had major problems going up against average teams and last night he flat out suck big donkey d***!

I’m not denying people said that. I said that it would be a issue. But he didn’t say any of that.
