Am I the only one not frusterated?

Do you guys think we will win every game or something on the road? Just because we pulled out two close road wins doesn't mean we'll win every road game. Oakland needed a win and are a playoff calliber team. When I marked up wins and losses for the season I bet most of the people here thought we would be 2-2 after this game. Now most of you had Washington and San Fran as those two wins. Some may have had 3-1 with a win over Oakland or San Diego but winning on the road in the NFL is tough. Going on the road 3 of your first 4 and winnng 2 of those road games is something very few teams in the NFL could do. Last years Dallas team may have started 0-4 with this schedule.

Bledsoe really showed a lot of heart today because he got pounded today. I thought Washington would blitz like Oakland did and that Oakland would play a D more like Washington did. But in the end he had a shot at winning it inside the 5. Now can you blame call playing or coaching to that. Yeah if you want. We got outplayed. The Oakland D forced that route in more and made the play. Give Oakland props. Last I looked they are in the NFL just like our 50+ guys. We'll move on and win the next one.

Also we may hold Oakland to their lowest offensive output of the year overall. With the weapons they have holding them down to 19 points won't be easy.

How could you not be frustrated over this loss?

The play calling on offense was the reason that we lost this game, which is why it makes it so frustrating.

The play calling in the 2nd half was way to conservative.

I think it has become very predictable as well. They like to throw alot of out routes and curls near the sideline.

With the caliber of receivers we have, we should have exploited our enemies weakness, which was the pass.

I'm not "frusterated" or frustrated- I fully expected them to lose and I fully expect them to be lucky to win four more this season- Frankly, they should be 1-3, with the only game they really outplayed the other team being against the sorry 3-0 (so close to being 0-3) Commanders.

I am always very disappointed after a loss.

But I am not to bad today. Why, because I just see fight in tis team. I like that.

Peolpe can talk all they want about this or that, but we lost because of the LOS. We lost the battle on both sides.

Our D played the pass pretty darn well, but they ran at will pretty much.

We could not run it.

That is why we lost. I pretty much had a feeling we where going to drop this one, but it went a lot different than I thought it would.

I am really liking Bledsoe though. He has fight, and wants to win bad, you can just see it.

I'm glad we didn't get blown out by a team Randy Moss was on. I mean since he's come in the league how many times have the Vikings absolutely killed us? We were in this game the entire time and had a shot at winning. Our playcalling wasn't the problem. Our OLine got flat out dominated and there was nothing Bledsoe could do about it till he completed some bombs late. Our short passing game really wasn't consistant because of all the pressure Drew got that forced the passes to not be accurate. Bledsoe really showed that he has a lot of heart for hanging in the game. It's just we weren't good enough to win this one.

My points exactly it's just worded a lot better.

I'm happy that we seem to be able to play with any team, even a "high powered" offensive team like the Raiders.

If Keyshawn's TD doesn't get called back, we probably win that game...I can live with that.

I'm darn proud of the Cowboys, they should only get better.

im not frustrated at all...im impressed with our defense holding moss to 4 catches, if not for that one catch he only had like 30 yards....look at all the other teams that are 2-2

new england
jacksonville
kansas city
san diego
seattle
saint louis

these teams are all pretty good...our division this year is right up there in the toughest...afc north, and nfc east both have the same amount of losses combined (4)...

all in all we probably shoulda beat washington and shouldntve beat SD...

I am upset because this team could EASILY be 4-0...other than that, we should have won this game. I had NO doubt that we would score inside the 10 with 3 downs to get a first or a TD...the play calling was horrid.

This team really knows how to adjust and fight and I am proud of them. I thought Moss would add 3 TDs to his numbers, but he really was a non-factor.

What's frustrating me is the fact the team has looked so bad in the first halves, particularly the first quarters this season.

You need to have big shovels when you dig those big holes. Right now our shovles are not big enough, consistantly.

I dont think we have scored a point in the 1st quarter this year, i believe the Cortez FG was in the 2nd Quarter

Until Parcells trusts the offense we will not be succesfull on a consistent basis. We could have thrown the ball all over the Raiders today. It was a joke we lost this game. AN ABSOLUTE JOKE!!!!!!!!!

We were a play away from winning. What's the big disapointment? When you play every game close, you are going to win about half and loose the other half. That's the way the season has played out so far. There's nothing to worry about, it's not like we've been blown out yet.

I agree.....San Diego and San Francisco both outplayed Dallas. The Cowboys got lucky in both games. I also agree that the only game Dallas played better than their opponant thus far was the Washington game......and the Commanders win was a fluke.

This team is just not that good, and I predicted an 8-8 season, I may have to decrease the number of projected wins. I think we are now looking at 5-11 again.

One quarter of the season is now gone, and if your team isn't jelling yet or close, then you are in trouble.

Dallas is in trouble with their upcomoing schedule.

Wrong and wrong. Oakland is crummy team.
They have one of the worst starting RBs in the entire league, (yet we made him look like a stud).
They have a crummy secondary and LBs yet we made them look like the Patriots.
Oakland is not a playoff team. They about as bad a team as we get to play all year. Sure they have Moss and two other decent WRs, but EVERY team in this league has at least one or two guys that can hurt you. The good teams are the ones that have a lot of guys that can hurt you.

Point total? The only thing they can do is throw a deep ball. If you cover that, you win. Excuse me, and you stop their pathetic running game, which we didn't
