Yes mistake after mistake, but when it's on the line they pulled it out. 98 yards to win a game.. tells you about this team that even on their worst day, they can pull it off. Don't ever overlook a team again!!!
On their worst day, against the worst team in the league. Sorry, don't mean to sound negative, but context is key.

Not proud of this game. Game was hard to watch.

Texans just realized they were about to ruin their goal of #1 pick.
Nonsense. They tries their best to win. It took some great play on a goal line stand and an extremely efficient offensive drive to get the W against them. While I still think we played poorly for most of the game, when you watch how hard the Texans played, how hard they were hitting our guys, etc., there's no way they were tanking.

Worst game I've ever watched Dak play. Leads them on 98 yard td drive for the win. Haters pisssed.

You must not of seen the Bucs game. I don't know how it can even be debated in the same breath.

Never have issues with a win, but there will always be analysis vs the comp, we continue to stay true to rep and play down to the comp continually.

We blew out the Vikes because this team was focused entirely on that game vs the vaunted Vikes at the time, that's the example of the perfect game that is
going to have to be coming soon again.

Maybe it's good that we are being exposed to that weakness, still winning but just playing rollercoaster ball, going up and down, the talent level of this team is contender level, but the consistency level is lacking one and done level at the moment.

That doesn't mean it stays there at that level, this team might be in the perfect storm were its just a bit too early to really peak, we have seen the perfect game this season, and this
team can get back to that level again and will need to do so.

A lot of young contributors, young rooks contributing and developing weekly, daily that have established their roles, just think how bad of shape we would be in the secondary losing 2 starting CBs, but having the depth to fill that void with some actual viable talent, very glad to have Bland coming in for Lewis, made most forget about Lewis.

Joseph has an opportunity to do the same, I always preach about confidence, but it is so very important x10 with the youth, Joseph has the golden opportunity now to prove himself, Bland did, so step up or exit stage left KJ.

We are deep enough to even start exploring others, safeties that can be competing with the new FA signing as well, Quinn has some serious moving pieces taking place right now until we can balance this out.

Pulling Donovan out of the box has changed this defense more than some are realizing, this defense has to learn to play and support the changes in the back seven and then build quickly on how they can get back to doing what they do best and that's getting after the passer.

Hard to have both at the same time.

And if we get by that we have to go to Philly… It’s starting to look like our best case will be one win and done.

Never know, but yah. Cowboys have to prove different. I would prefer Bucs first round then Eagles in Philly.

Proud of what? Our $40M man playing worse than most backup QBs? Non-existent pass rush? Beating the worst team in the league?
Can you say OUT COACHED! We're stuck with the over hyped and overpaid Prescot while the 9er coaching staff has their rookie QB hitting on all cylinders!

Ahhhhh.....some people want 40 to 13 scores every week......ain't happening! Teams win some weeks, teams s*** the bed other weeks.......it happens. I like to see when teams struggle but find a way to overcome adversity and win in the end. The cowboys need the experience with these types of games! It'll help in the long run!

But you same fans cheered Baker and Brady for their comeback wins. Go figure.
I didn't do that but ok, Baker is a bad QB and Brady hasn't been that bad, the team is just not clicking this season. Look at the stats, Tom Brady has a 3:1 TD to INT ratio this year and Daks isn't even 2:1 might not want to include Tom Brady in comparison to Dak because even a bad season for Brady is still better than whatever Dak can muster.

Trash take; next you will throw in his Superbowl victories. That has nothing to do with the comeback comparison.
