How many of you were giving up after the first charger drive?

Anyway, first close win of the year. Dak came through, defense came through. Gritty win all the way around. 18 thanking the heavens. Feels good headed into the bye.

Most important win so far. It wouldn’t have been safe to come here without it lol

Two equal teams met; they fought until the end. Dallas won.
Peculiar how fluke plays helped both teams score a touchdown; first Pollard's long run on a busted pass play, then the Chargers get lucky on a muffed punt to put them in scoring position.
Both teams had a goal line stand.
Couldn't have been two more equal teams playing. Neither could run the ball, and both were just hoping for a break in the passing game.

Yeah, no. Best win was dominating the Giants no doubt.

This team looked sloppy tonight. We just happened to win which eases the pain. Don’t get ahead of yourself here.
Wow. You really hate when they win. Gotta ease up and enjoy, kid

Chargers are a very talented football team. Our defense played a great game vs them. This win was against a much better team then people will give credit for. After saying all that. NFL refs are horrible.
But are they?
Chargers have a terrible secondary and pass defense.
No running game - Ekeler is a pass catching back.
One good receiver in Allen.
Really bad offensive line.
Bosa is overpaid and overrated.
Head Coach is a space cadet.
That would have been a very bad loss for the Cowboys given they have a better secondary, better front 7 on D, better offensive line, better receivers, better kicker and ok running game is about a wash but to only put up 20 points on such a poor secondary is a major concern.
Cowboys D came up big - Chargers would have only scored 10 points but for the Special Teams blunder.

The team was sloppy, but they also had to fight through an onslaught of questionable flags, and a freak punt mishap. If that punt return nonsense doesn't happen, the Cowboys win this game by 10.

Good, hard-fought win.
But, there are a lot of things we're going to have to sure up.
And, honestly, I think we're going to have to throw ourselves out of games.
The run-first game is just not working.
We may have to "let her rip, Dak, interceptions and all" because we're not winning with this running game.

I don’t hate when they win, I just don’t get gassed up over a sloppy win, especially following a pitiful blowout from a team we were supposedly on the same level as.
That same team lost this weekend. NFL is week to week and you take them when you can.

The NFL should be ashamed, but you can't shame the shameless. Meanwhile, have no doubt, that chargers defense sucks, as in bottom of the league, there ain't enough lipstick for that pig.

I agree.

The high after the first two games were great, but this one was more satisfying.

Not running up the middle, anyway.
