LOL the absolute cope here is strong

The run game is not the issue for a QB staring down the receiver (first INT). The run game is not the fault of a QB throwing into traffic (second INT)

You can have a bad run game and not make poor decisions like this as a QB. Just stop.
Ok. Dak was bad.

Now what? Who you got that's better?

I will admit I have a terrible memory and I refuse to watch any of the GB game ever again.

Early on in the Packers first drive.. didn't the D have them 4th and long and a penalty gave them a first down?

I wonder if they hadn't had that penalty if the result would have been different with everyone feeling good about themselves.

Maybe not and maybe my memory has let me down yet again.. lol

Hard to move an offense in the playoffs when you can’t run the ball at all and your defense can’t stop the run at all. :rolleyes:
Lol this is the funny thing about Rockport. I agree that we couldnt run the ball and the d couldn't stop the run.
But you're one of the ones who defended the Zeke signing, lol, you think signing a guy who averaged 3.5 ypc improved our run game? You think a rookie LT is outperform Tyron Smith second team all pro season? You dont think Beebes will have to learn the center position?
What moves did we make this off season that improved our run game?
Our run D, all they seem to be doing is crossing their fingers and hope these draft picks workout.

So if Dallas gets knocked out the playoffs again, youll be one of the first people crying about no run game and no run defense, even though you approve of this off season lol

It was more than just D. Something was up with Dak and lamb. It was like lamb and slept with Daks girl or something very much like the end of Major league.

If you ask ten different people to summarize this video, you will get ten completely different versions.

I didn't hear "we quit".

I heard, "we were demoralized very quickly once we discovered just how unprepared we were for that game."

WTH? Juanyeh Thomas admits the whole Defense and D-Coordinator Dan Quinn QUIT early in the 1st quarter against the Packers during the 2023 Season home playoff loss.

This is why I shutter at the idea of making Micah the highest paid defensive player in history. Micah was the king of quitting in that game. He totally mailed it in. He was running all around avoiding contact and avoiding the RB. I am disappointed we haven’t traded him yet. He completely bailed on that game.

This thread reminds me of what Michael Irvin said after the game, “All they ***es” need to go!”. I agree. After that game the only people I wanted to keep was Tyler, Ferguson, Diggs, Bland. Anyone else I felt either played so bad in the most important game or quit. Either way I wanted the team blown up. That includes Lamb, Dak, especially Micah, Tank, the safeties, the LBers, Martin, BDZ, Cooks, Pollard, Tyron. All of them.
Parsons hasn’t showed up in any of our big games. In 4 playoff games he has ONE sack. Our entire defense seems more ready to start the offseason than play in a playoff game. This has been going on for two decades with our defense. The worst defensive games we play during the regular season show up in the playoffs. We saw the same crap against SF and Buffalo that we saw against GB. It’s embarrassing!

Dallas only had 80 something total yards in the 1st half. They were only able to start piling on after that when GB pulled their starters for the entire 2nd half. Without that happening Dallas doesn't get over 500 yards and 32 points, not even close. But keep patting yourself on the back that Dallas was able to stack up all those yards and points against GB's 2nd and 3rd team. No one should be proud of that.
They didn’t pull their starters until the 4th quarter and we played with a lot of urgency in the second half. Our offense never quit.

What do you mean played with a lot of urgency? Does urgency mean anything if you keep going 3 and out?

I'm too upset to type. Check this out.

I already knew that....the zone scheme Quinn used was pathetic. He wanted to lose to start the interview process

We were down 27-7 at the half and had a lot of ground to make up. We put up 25 points and a lot of yards in the second half playing with a lot of urgency. You don’t put up 25 points in a half if you keep going 3 and out.

No he didn't.

The active noun in everything Juanyeh said was Green Bay. His comments were about the other team's insight. You'd have better ground to suggest Juanyeh said "THEY CHEATED without uttering the actual words." In fact, now that I think about it, one could wonder whether that's been explored...

Need to go back and listen... any metal trash can lids noises on the tape?

I kid, I kid.

But do I? ;)
Fair, I will go back and listen. But I do recall watching the game and thinking, those boys are quitting. That was in the first half. DQ is head of the class in this. He never seemed to adjust to anything. The players maybe knew he was leaving before the game. So did they decide to go thru the motions on defense prior to the game? Optically, it looked that way. The offense did at least try,but it was far too late.

I mean Dak was 1/4 with 2 interceptions in the first 2 quarters...so yea...makes sense why they quit.

Did i mention the 2 picks were returned tds and at our own 10 yard line.
Dak was awful but the defense was just as awful to start the game; they didn’t wait to quit bc Dak was dreadful, they were dog walked right from the jump
