Game Day ***Cowboys vs Cardinals post game thread***

[Buzzbait]

180 yards rushing in the first half......can't blame that on the offense or the loss of Diggs. Complete team loss.....not to mention 10 penalties in the first half.

Yeah so many just want to put all the blame on whoever they dislike the most, but you're right, it was a complete team loss along with sloppy penalties. The OL did OK for our RBs, but pass protection was poor, and our defense was worthless, especially our run defense.

 

[Vandyr]

Explain how he’s a bum. No emotions, no hyperbole, just rational thought. You can’t do that, I guarantee.

Sure.

He can’t read defenses, can’t throw receivers open, holds the ball too long, has no pocket awareness, stares down his receivers, half the time he throws high and behind his target.

Surprisingly enough, all the things he did in college, that were on his scouting report.

 

[Carson]

Don’t forget the Devin Harper penalty to negate a chance to tie the game up and steal momentum back

 

[Montanalo]

sadly , today is on dak .


it happens.

Let's agree to disagree... this is on the much ballyhood defense - 28 points and more than 200 yards rushing

 

[Gaede]

Total team loss.

The defense lost this game, and Dak did nothing to win it.

For what he's paid, Dak needs to be the guy in that situation to bring us the win. It was there for us

 

[Buzzbait]

Now we have to figure out how to slow down Ezekiel Elliott.

If they can't even figure out how to stop 'ol 2 yds and a cloud of dust, we're REALLY in trouble.

 

[Gambit]

I actually said “that dak pass sucked, and we should kill him for that” then said the loss wasn’t all on him and listed several other reasons for the loss. the criticism was directed entirely on that play….hence the word “pass” singular and not his overall play and also why I didn’t use the word “passes” plural or say his overall play sucked. I also defend dak fairly often.

So no it wasn’t hyperbolic at all…that pass did suck. It was a terrible decision and he deserves to be criticized and killed (figuratively not literally) over that decision making in that spot. He’s also not the reason we lost the game. Both can be and are true in this case.

Reading comprehension champ. Like I said…sit this one out boss.

Horrible loss. From the coaching staff to the players to the quarterback. Dak should be killed for that last int and he’s the QB so the good and bad falls on him

1. This is what you said verbatim nothing about "that last past"

You'll note this is DRASTICALLY different from

“that dak pass sucked, and we should kill him for that"

Intellectually dishonest by you to try and change what you said. At best

2. That last interception.

In order for there to be a last there must be a first. Since he has only thrown one all year long, yes you used hyperbolic language to make a weak point.

3. Then you chose another hyperbolic word "killed" when you could have just said criticism or critique or any other word.

4. He’s also not the reason we lost the game. Both can be and are true in this case.

This I agree with and am happy to hear you say it so succinctly.

Lol, it ain’t over until they’re out of the playoff race

True, and not even then as we get to watch our favorite team play all 17 games, minimum.

 

[Carson]

That holding in the end zone that wasn't called a safety. Does the holding need to occur entirely in the end zone, or even if it's initiated outside, but completed in the end zone enough to be called a safety?

It is where the holding begins.

Holding did occur before the end zone so it was correct

 

[MysteryIceGuro]

Season is over now, bud. The quicker you accept that, the easier all of this will be. The beat downs are just going to get worse. The 49ers are going to put this team out of it’s own misery.

 

[Blast From The Past]

That was the call they got right.

The missed PI on Gallup was another turning point I think a lot of us forgot about already.

Nope I remember because it was egregious and a no brainer call that was inexplicably picked up after initially throwing a flag.

 

[OriginalNameGuy]

Kellen's fault

 

[TheFinisher]

I’m shocked with how the defense played. I really thought we had turned the corner on that side of the ball.

It’s still the same team that throws up a white flag when the opponent gets physical with them.

 

[Buzzbait]

Dak had his share of this loss as well no matter how much you deny it

Of course he did, along with our 2nd string OL and our entire defense.

 

[Gangsta Spanksta]

Now we have to figure out how to slow down Ezekiel Elliott.

hopefully he won't hurdle over one of our players next week.

“That dak pass sucked and we should kill him for that but dak isn’t solely the reason we lost this game. However it is games like this why he should never be mentioned in that elite top tier of quarterbacks imo”

That’s literally the post I made and you commented on…. I said “dak pass” in my original post. So you’re wrong again chief but at least you are consistent. Btw Dak’s “last “ interception is his only one this year So saying “ last” interception in my reply to you actually references the play I was referring to in my original post.

And killed isnt hyperbolic…he should be killed (again figuratively) for that play. Was a bad pass, bad decision and effectively ended any comeback. So he will be “killed” by the media and the fans.

Btw it’s “pass” not “past”. Thanks champ

What I always find puzzling is that Daksters always tell us how special he is, but they never expect him to take over a game and win it with his hands when another part of the team is deficient.

Horrible loss. From the coaching staff to the players to the quarterback. Dak should be killed for that last int and he’s the QB so the good and bad falls on him deservingly so but overall this is a team loss right down the line. Undisciplined all round. Huge step back and come to reality moment for the defense.

180 yards rushing…..before halftime just atrocious. Red zone play calling is baffling and the execution is worse. I’m not a doom and gloom guy and there’s tons of games left but this is why the team really can’t be taken too seriously until they show us - they can be and consistently.

Lol doomsday 2.0

Champ. This is the post I replied to.

Caught lying again. Stop while you're behind.

 

[cowboys1732]

The defense put them in a hole from the start and was awful all game long. But despite the penalties, missing Ol due to injury, the awful defense, even the horrible red zone offense/play calling, they had a chance to win this game ugly.

Dak did make some plays with his legs to keep drives alive. I wonder if Mcarthy’s red zone offense play calling is because he doesn’t trust Dak to not turn the ball over? The defense will play better, because they can’t play any worse. But sometimes your QB has to make big throws, he has to win the game ugly and get it done. Yes, I understand it’s a team game.

I will watch and I will root for them but Dak isn’t the guy. And I will root for Dak because he is the starting QB. After the first two weeks, I guess I could consider myself “sucked”. I thought it was going to be their year. I know it’s early and they will bounce back. But the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior and I don’t think Dak will ever overcome his mistakes and lead them deep into the playoffs, let alone the SB.

 

[Mannix]

Although I’m displeased about the game and wept openly, there is a calming effect knowing that the team is back in their normal disposition….kind of like a homey familiar feeling

You mean having to play a Divisional Playoff game on the road?
