Cowboys have one of the worst defenses since week 13

[G2]

The defense has been trying to limit the big play and force long drives the last few weeks as the offense HAD been scoring at will.
What Happened?

Expecting the offense to sustain 40+ points a game is ridiculously stupid.

Lions will run all over us for more than 200 yards,watch out for Gibbs..

Ok how about 30?

We forced 1 punt and had zero turnovers. Yeah we only allowed 1 TD and a 5 field goals but man this defense just cannot get stops when it matters.

And no punts forced against the Seahawks.

They couldn't stop the eagles offense either. The fumbles are what kept that game from being close

How about you google "team."

DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I laugh my behind off when I hear the game announcers mention how great the Cowboy defense is and how teams fear their pass rush.................LOL!!!!!! OH,OH and how great Quinn has been as the Cowboy's defensive coordinator. If anything, Quinn has gone MIA just like his defense has............

So we are talking about 2 weeks? Could playing two of the better teams on the road have anything to do with that? Just the Bills game alone will have a heavy influence on the stats over 2 games, or even 3 games.

I think we should wait to see what happens next week against Detroit.

I think eexpect too much of the Cowboys defense. They either rush the passer or stop the run but they seem incapable of doing both. But missing Hankins, LVE and Diggs is going to make a difference.

Of course it does.

Defense went down right after our stretch of cupcake opponents ended.

Hmmmmmm surprising
