All I did was get bashed while alot of you thumped your chest about how bad the jets are and how this was a "get right game".

We do not have a good team.

Blame it on the injuries all you want. All that does is make Dak look bad as the guy need a damn all-star cast just to stay consistant.

Seriously, what was going on in the minds of you posters who actually believed we would steamroll the jets?

You guys may think being involved in fantasy sports has nothing to do with actually football play, but I studied both these teams for a whole week starting last monday to prepare for a cash game.

Sadly everything pointed to the cowboys losing which is why last Wednesday I made a post about it. I then got bashed.

On the bright side my lineups cashed:). On the not so bright side I had to roster mostly jets to do it.

Fading cooper and Rostering darnold over Dak imo was an insane thing to do.

I knew we'd lose after 5 days of looking at both these teams situations.

Your internet points are in the mail. I'm sure you'll let me know when you get them, hell you probably know the delivery date already.

I saw your post title and avoided it like a bad cold coming on. I felt like we were in trouble and could lose. That feeling started after the first half of the Miami game!

Wrong. It actually makes Dak look good. Look at his stats. All while playing behind an injured/porous Oline, injured/underperforming WRs and very questionable playcalling against 3 very good Defenses. Imagine how much better Dak's numbers would be if everyone else around him played up to their potential?

Our offense and defense are terrible. The jets are trash were just not very good either like you said.

Thought dallas would win by 14 or so tbh

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Bragging about correctly predicting your team to lose seems quite shallow.
Congratulations? I guess.

Not really bragging. Ok this is what I seen as I looked at these teams.

-Darnold coming back will have the jets playing better on offense with the cowboys defense struggling as of late.

-Dak will struggle with oline injuries which will benefit the jets defense.

-the cowboys have been generous to TEs with jaylon and LVE mia. Herndon is out which will make griffin a strong play and darnold loves the check down to either the TE or crowder(see week 1). Hindsight: Griffin scored me 12 points. I faded Witten because dak is not as friendly as darnold with the TE.

-Fade cooper (he will not perform the same with a lingering injury. I will trust a healthier crowder more as a check down for darnold). I said earlier in the week I'd rather the cowboys rest cooper vs the jets. I still think they should rest him vs the eagles then you have the bye. (Two weeks to heal)

-CB's have been struggling so I gave exposure to Anderson over Gallup. I had to ask who would I trust with the homerun ball. It was a toss up because I also know the cowboys are on and off with defense. Darnold caught the cowboys on a off day. Had time to throw the ball.

Etc......

There are about two pages of notes I had taken and too much to post.

Although the notes where for fantasy purposes......I eventually had a moment were I told myself.......oh crap.....were gonna lose to the 0-4 jets.

Besides that, dont you find it a little disturbing that this team can be easily figured out?

The problem with you guys is that you believed the cowboys would rebound.

The cowboys are not a team that will rebound with injuries and bad coaching.

A hobbled cooper, oline injuries, and struggling defense.

I predicted on Tuesday that Darnold would have the game of his life.
No notes needed. I've watched long enough that nothing surprises me.

Grammar police note:
It's "I have seen" or "I saw". Never "I seen"
Sorry, that one bugs me. Just trying to help.

To answer your question, this team has been easy to figure out
for nearly a decade. That's why they lose whenever one or two
starters go down with an injury.

Sincere congratulations on your fantasy lineup.
It always helps to win something on a day when your team loses.
