Could the Cowboys been looking ahead to the Raider's game?

[Xeven]

I love KM but this loss is his. Plays and plays called lost it. He need to shake the Garret tendency to stick with losing game plan.

It’s the typical season collapse. Nothing will change until the culture changes…this franchise coddles these overpaid millionaires.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

No.

The Chiefs are better than us.

I'm thinking that could have been the case, along with missing key players. I am hoping they aren't as bad as they looked this Sunday. If this is the issue then they are lacking a killer instinct and get too comfy when things are going good AND that's not a good thing.

They got whipped. It happens. Sometimes the opposition is better on a given day. And yes, injuries are also a part of this. But this notion that only the Cowboys get paid to perform and win games on Sundays is crazy.

 

[Creeper]

Just out of curiosity, why would they look ahead to the Raiders?

 

[Sarge]

Looking past KC to the Raiders? Uh.......no.

Good excuse, bloke!

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Yes they overlooked the Chiefs because the Raiders are on the horizon.

 

[KJJ]

The Cowboys overlooked the Chiefs because they were looking ahead to the Raiders?

 

[Typhus]

No. They have all but said they don’t care about KC or LV and are focused on the NFC games after that.

Please dont forget Denver,, so all AFC west teams are irrelevant, got it.

They forgot to pack the OL on the road to KC , thought the KC defense is a piece of cake , they played physical and our WRs showed alligator arms. Dak was to be blamed also, he couldnt motivate the offense nor make miracle plays.

Unless you're the 1972 Dolphins or 2007 Patriots, teams lose games.

People underestimate just how hard it is to win in the NFL and, regardless of record, how close in talent every team truly is. The fact the Cowboys lost on the road to the Chiefs shouldn't shock anybody.

I wouldn't call it looking ahead. I think the players wanted to win and they did try to do that. But when they put out Sunday morning that TS was being held out as a "Big Picture" move, I just thought yeah; they're sending a message. This game is not important enough for "all hands on deck".

Too bad CDL didn't get the memo.

They may actually feel that way about the Raiders game coming up too. Who knows?

We'll see what they do.

No

KC just got their mojo back and we were the unlikely victims.

I clicked on this thread just so see if it was real. Now I need a drink.

Why would Dallas be looking ahead to Las Vegas over their next immediate game at Kansas City?
Chiefs were on a 3-game winning streak; Raiders had lost two straight
1st Sunday in November- Las Vegas went to MetLife Stadium and lost to the Giants- who before that game NYG was 1-3 at home. Raiders only scored 16 points.
2nd Sunday in November- Las Vegas hosted Kansas City- and the Chiefs drubbed them by 4 TDs..Raiders only scored 14 points.
You started this thread mid-morning (EST) ..it appears you've started your holiday libations early.

I doubt the Cowboys were looking ahead. They just have too many injuries in key areas.
