Could Dallas ever pull of a feat like the Patriots?

[kskboys]

No other team could pull that off except Belicheat’s Patriots. We can’t’ run against 8 man fronts and everyone in the stadium new NE was going to run the ball vs Buffalo’s 9-10 man fronts and they still did it.

With that running game and Defense Belicheat’s team could be really hard to beat in January/February.

That's because Belly fills his OL w/ mean, mauling monsters. Their OT is 6-8/380 for bog's sake!!!

We have been making the mistake of looking at 2nd level blocking first, when the first question we should be asking ourselves when drafting OL's is "Can they dominate at the LOS?"

 

[kskboys]

No.. Moore won't even call three running plays in a row let alone 10 or 11 in a row.. So no we will never see the Cowboys even attempt this sort of game plan.

Did you mean 2?????????????????????

 

[BourbonBalz]

The NE win in Buffalo was more about the inept Buffalo offense than anything else. ANY team that loses to a team that only completed two passes, at home no less, doesn’t belong in an NFL game.

Did you mean 2?????????????????????

Well we've seen him call 2 in a row like 4-5 times over the past 6-7 games so he seems capable of at least that. But three in a row? I honestly cannot recall the last time we did that.. not counting kneel downs of course.

The Scouting Department needs to find another Erik Williams, before we can think about pounding non-stop.

Most underrated O lineman in NFL history.

Once told Michael Strahan during a game, “ stop whining and take your *** whuppen like a man “

Watching the Patriots @ Buffalo MNF tilt, majority already know that the Pats ran a total of 49 offensive plays with 46 coming in the form of rushing the ball. New England threw the ball 3 times and 2 of those came in the 4th quarter and won the game.
Yes, it was rough weather (very windy)

Now, could the Cowboys ever pull of a feat like that? If you are honest...no

Patriots have no superstars on either side of the ball and have a 7 game winning streak.

Let’s not act like the weather didn’t have a major impact on that game. People act like the Patriots re-created the wheel. To me, it says more about Buffalo’s defense unable to adapt than it does about the Patriots handing it off and running without top-tier running backs.

Asked the same question a day earlier. Try to keep up.

Could the Cowboys win a game with 3 pass attempts?

 

[Streifenkarl]

In our current state, no. Two months ago I would have expected just that. KM was still on fire and not afraid to try different things. Still had a great run game going and the O line was still intact.

So generally spoken yes, the Cowboys could pull of a feat like the Pats last Monday. Just not at the moment.

 

[plasticman]

There was a time when the Cowboys were the Patriots.

The Cowboys won Super Bowl 6 and Roger Staubach got the MVP for his leadership. However, he threw the ball 19 times for 12 completions and six of them went to RB's. They won their last four games in the regular season and Staubach never threw more than 15 times in a game.

During the 15 combined seasons of 1966 to 1980, the Dallas Cowboys led the league in rushing attempts, rushing yardage, rushing TD's, and yards per attempt.

It's no coincidence that they also led the league in winning percentage with 74.1% during that 15 year span.

I don't think it matters but I'd have to say no, not unless Belichick was coaching Dallas

 

[Cowpolk]

Already beat NE, next topic

Yep

 

[Cowpolk]

Do people actualy want to watch more crap like that ? The game sucked!

So according to you, 2 All Pros (Tyron and Zach) along with multiple solid starters (Lael, Mcgovern, Biasdaz, Steele) is not enough to be able to run the ball consistently and effectively?

If not, who in the heck do the Patriots have up front?
5 Larry Allens?

Could the Cowboys ever bench Zeke because he looks washed compared to Pollard?
How many of you remember the 93 SB vs Buffalo? When Emmit won the MVP. That second half drive where Emmit ran the ball almost every play, Troy had gotten a concussion the week before vs the Niners. Bob Costas or someone was interviewing Nate, about all consecutive running plays and he said something to effect of "coach said if they can't stop it don't throw it out".
This organization has such a toxic culture from the roots to the tips. When your soul aim is to entertain and get ratings and pomp and show, you will have 26 years of mediocrity. I have been banging the drum on this for years. We need this team to prove us wrong. BigMike needs to step up and change this culture. Get to the Championship game, otherwise shut up.
It has been too long for us suffering fans. This organization is out of excuses. Now is the time to get the team to play as one, get healthy and smash the Deadskins.

 

[Diehardblues]

It’s a great example that superstars aren’t required. Great defense and strong running game is.

And it’s possible Mac Jones is a star in the making while his performance wasn’t needed.

And they had the X-factor. The greatest HC in the game today.

 

[DFWJC]

It took luck for that to happen.
50 mph wind gusts
Buffalo had long drives into the red zone in the 4th quarter but
..FG kicker missed a chip shot (his 1st miss of the year from that range)...howling wind. That would've made it 13-14
..then next drive down there, because of the previous miss, the Bills had to go for the TD even though they were in chip shot range again for the win.

 

[Creeper]

I am asking myself if Washington can pull that off against Dallas this week. I am worried they can and will.

Dak is being paid 40 millions a year, if we are going to only throw it 3 times, why did we paid Dak in the first place? Actually statistic show that the Cowboys win more when we run than throw. What does that tell you about Dak?

I'd ask.......then why A'INT that happening now?
