Cowboys got beat by greatness

[BHendri5]

Rogers is not great

It's not nitpicking when it's a huge call at a crucial part of the game. It's not nitpicking when it's a call that could easily have been avoided given the situation.

IN other words, yet again, at the end of a game, Garrett and company make a peculiar decision.

Your certainly entitled to your opinion but Id call it more of a questionable call than a peculiar decision. And it's even possible it set up the 3rd down TD beautifully ?

 

[Diehardblues]

Yup. I'm fine with putting our fate in Zeke and OLs hand.

It's why I've never really argued about the Dez catch. Making that throw was stupid. We score there and we lose the game, period. There was ZERO chance we score there and win that game. ZERO. Romo should have dumped that pass to Bease, got the first down, and tried to milk the remaining clock. It was our only hope, and he should have known that. And I'm a Romosexual.

There's always a chance and why priority is scoring first. Teams just aren't on the most going to strategize assuming they can't make a stop.

 

[Diehardblues]

I'm sorry but if you think that pass to Bryant had a higher chance of completion than Zeke getting 2 yards for a first down then you either were not watching the game or don't know football or are (most likely) just making excuses

I've stated over and over the pass to Dez was a questionable call.

 

[Diehardblues]

Rogers is not great

Your entitled to believe as such but history won't be in your side .

 

[cowboyblue22]

the cowboys got beat because they have a really bad defense and their coaching is also not very good their defense makes ordinary qb look like joe montana

Are you saying Rodgers is an ordinary QB?

Otherwise I'd partially agree.

That just seems like semantics............ questionable call versus peculiar decision.

 

[cowboyblue22]

so I guess jared goff and gurley are greatness then no Rodgers Is not ordinary but the cowboys should of won that game tarence willams and a bad play call lost that game

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

I think most are missing the point. Sports is live action. It's unpredictable. The problem is we HAD TO score a TOUCHDOWN and it's very hard to plan it exactly for 3rd or 4th down with x amount of time remaining. I agree that we could have played it out better/smarter 100% but ultimately we completed the task by taking the lead. Jordan got the ball and did us in. We've been on the other side of it as well. It's sports.. and it's greatness.

Perhaps you like Jerrys words better. He called it a " hard call".

I wouldn't call Goff greatness. He certainly didn't beat us in the same fashion Rodgers did. But Goff looks like an up and coming QB worthy of his 1st rd selection and Gurley is already one of the best RB in the league.

Lol this post.

That greatness was almost beat by a team that looked pretty terrible for an entire half, and probably still should have lost.

But Rodgers will be in the HoF. I'll agree with that part

 

[Diehardblues]

Here's an impressive stat I learned yesterday. Dallas is only the 2nd team in NFL history to score 30 points or more in consecutive home games and lose .

It's not like we been getting dominated by the packers. Every game been close except for the one we won against them. We're even in the field, but it's a lopsided defeat on the sideline

It looks more lopsided to me with our defense against their QB.

But no doubt I'd give the Packers coaching staff the nod over ours as well. And probably their front office too.

And they probably feel the same way about their defense against us. We always put up points against them and we don't do no trickery (like trying to catch them with twelve guys on the field and snapping the ball), get no benefit from the refs and we damn sure don't get turnovers let alone defensive tds.

Our offense drives against their defense for every score it gets.

How many penalties do they get against our defense to extend the drive ...?

Like I said it's even on the field but we lose the game on the sideline.

I understand but that doesn't change talents like Rodgers increases the chance of success.

Much like in our glory years it lessened the blow and softened the pain of losing to some of the greatest teams like the Packers of the 60's and Steelers in 70's. No shame in losing to greatness.

And we had great teams that had an opportunity to win and could have been considered greater if we had. It illustrates again how 1 play or plays even a player often make a difference and decide your fate influencing destiny .

Losing to Pittsburg twice in the Super Bowl is still painful 40 years later, I don't care how great they were.

Totally disagree. Priority is on winning. And this FO has decided defense doesn't matter, so the coaches can't pretend that this D has any hope at all of stopping Rodgers in that situation. We can agree to disagree. I'm not changing my mind on this no matter how many talking heads, even ex-coaches or players, try to rationalize the irrational.

And I've heard the argument that you can't do that because it sends the defense a message that you don't trust them. Exactly. I want them to get that message. I'd want them to start playing with their heads out of their butt, and that include the DC. And if the strategy failed, I'd sit up and tell it exactly like that. I don't trust this defense to stop Aaron Rodgers in that situation period. I'd do anything to prevent that from being what decides the game. Jerry would fire me before I got two games in.

Heck we got beat by that Denver qb dude. What's his name. Ummmm simien or something
