Comparison to 2016

[waldoputty]

offense - worse. OL regressed with both pass and rush. elliott a little worse. witten worse. other receivers better. hard to say about dak.

defense - slightly better due to more talent on dl. but still a long way to go.

worst thing is not sure what the offense needs to get back on track. it scored 30 today but does not look right.

Same- panicing after every loss. I was told we would go 4-12 last year after week 1.

 

[LocimusPrime]

I think our defense is worse too. Look how many points we gave up at home

Dude the D is just trash! if you cant see that then open your eyes

Yep heard the same thing last year.

 

[hornitosmonster]

Offense regressed and defense still bad. Dak has taken a huge step back

much better to go 4-12 than 8-8.
this team does not look like a worldbeater...

Offense regressed and defense still bad. Dak has taken a huge step back

The OL and Zeke have taken a bigger step back than Dak.

Zeke is fine. Not his fault, teams stack the box and Dak panic throws 5 yards over Dez or we run into a wall. Zeke has turned chicken **** into chicken soup on a lot of plays

 

[AmericanCowboy]

I don't think Witten has taken a step back-think he is about the same.

He can still get open. He just hasnt been used in two weeks.

we just can't stop top RB's is the issue on D this year. Last year we were #1 rush defense. Now we've give up 2-100 yard rushers. Had Johnson played last week different ball game.

i think we had trouble with rbs last year also but the pass defense was more porous

 

[CODE_BLUE56]

O line has definitely regressed, which hurts Elliott as well as Dak.

D? Meh. Make no mistake though today, that Rams team has serious firepower. D didn't play well, but containing Gurley+Austin as well as Goff w/ the triad of Watkins, Kupp, and Woods? That's a tough deal, especially without Lee.
