Why do I have a feeling this get breaks 300 yards?
Because this defense is bend don’t break. We allow yards but not the touchdowns.

Dobbs had 232 and several easy drops that would topped 300.
Minshew had 355.
Lawrence had 318.
Mills / Driskel went for 213.

Outsude of Philly, those teams don’t have a Dotson, McLaurin and Samuel.

Word is Robinson and Gibson may not play.so expect them to pass

Smart move, play the rookie their season is done anyway. Cowboys should look for a heavy dose of runs from Robinson Jr. n Gibson. The young secondary players will have to wait till the Playoffs to get properly tested by Brady. Howell better be a warm up.
I agree, there's an opportunity if this team as a whole gets business done quickly. I'm hopeful we can get an early lead and maybe get some fellas a rest.
Except for Parsons, he'll want to feast on the new guy. :laugh:

Perfect timing for a solid pass rush and a hungry secondary to test the rook.

It's 5 games now. Garoppolo got hurt on their opening drive against Miami.

As far as losing to Washington goes, it really doesn't matter. We can't do worse than the 5th seed. If the Giants don't go all out, Dallas has a zero chance at winning the division.

Yep. Very little chance we win division. I hope we destroy Wash bc it’s, well, Wash , but I have no illusions when it comes to the division lol.

Dak has been good for at least one or two INT’s every game whether it’s on him or the receiver. The recipe for losing in the playoffs is turning the ball over. Our defense can’t stop anyone unless they get turnovers. We would’ve lost to Minshew had it not been for the takeaways.
True but that is our defense the last two years. What the Cowboys want to do is score as many points on offense as possible to speed teams up and get turnovers. The defense has only 3 upper level players. The rest our JAGs. Dak must stop the stupid turnovers if we are going to advance. Tampa or Green Bay will be tough because those quarterbacks make few if any mistakes.

The only thing worth it would be first overall… The Eagles and the 49ers are not gonna both lose… I would rest anyone that hurt and get ready for the wildcard round.

Crazy to think. Home town kid, his high school is 10 minutes from me. Rival of my sons high school team. Trains here locally. His dad just got the head coaching job at Cuthbertson High which plays his old high school as well. What is nuts is that Grayson McCall who played at my sons High school (Porter Ridge) will likely be drafted after next season. Those two guys went at it all through middle school and high school. Grayson in my opinion is the better QB.

Grayson is a great kid. I’m a CCU Alum and he does a lot of good in the area

I'm with you bigE. Whether it be the likes of first ballot HOF Gardner Minshew...
OR 8 days on the team, just called up practice squad journeyman Josh Dobbs looking fairly comfortable and effective against your defense, you can't take anyone lightly.
LOL
:laugh:
