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

[cern]

knight and steele got stronger as the game wore on. especially their run blocking. there is hope.
gallup continues to come up with the big play in crunch time.
zeke showed why i consider him the best rb in the nfl today.
dak had a good showing.
last week's pinata, dalton schultz, had an outstanding game. never saw anyone so much maligned.
lambo was clutch on the final drive.
joe thomas had a pretty good game.
oops, left out a couple of great catches by noah brown.

True. Knight looked better. Steele could eventually be a dependable backup. But, without Smith and Collins out there, it's a much tougher game.

I liked Knight. Looked fine last year. Should only be better this year. Weird that they played Steele ahead of him last week.

Didnt the ATL Receivers know that they can jump on the ball before it travelled 10 yards on the new rule?

They were just watching lol. What a choke job. Even outchoked McCarthy

I think they were like me and thought it was never going 10 yards, that was a crazzy kick

 

[calico]

falcons win prob looks like the stock market crashing
had a 99.9 % win prob with 2 mins to go.

Guess add another mark under comeback and fourth quarter comeback wins for Dak.

Comeback win for the kicker..

 

[lopey]

Great comeback but the d needs work. I like they limited the Falcons to 10 points but way to many yards given up

 

[Carter]

how they hell did we recover the onside kick...almost impossible in today's NFL

because they stood there watching the ball travel instead of getting it. Defenders can touch it before 10 yards.

 

[zenmastersauce]

My biggest takeaway is fighting till the end. I don't think I have seen them fight as hard in this game than previously. We are normally coming from behind but this was a wicked fight to win not just tie. Bad start and they need a kick in the arse in practice. Drills drills drills bc they were sloppy. But damn great win.

 

[Rockport]

Unbelievable. But Atlanta had a giant brain fart on that onside kick...

this offence can score. But gotta cut out the penalties, turnovers and the pop Warner coaching...and you know jones is saying “I fired JG for this”.

I think it’s a given we are 1-2 after next week. But 5-11 may win you the division...

Pissed off we won huh. Jeez our fans are the worst.

 

[CWR]

I cant believe we won with those TWO tackles.

I liked Knight. Looked fine last. Should only be better this year. Weird that they played Steele ahead of him last week.

I wonder if it was due to his injury. Cause I agree he's the better of the two.

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

so at least one new coach earned his money tonight!

you know that when you work for Jerry there is no such thing as earning your money. If that was a stipulation Garrett would have been fired the same day Wade Phillips was.

 

[Floatyworm]

I'll take the win. But i wasnt impressed. Falcons suck.

Well....what today proved is we are never out of a game. Kellen can bail us out...if given time. Question is...can we fix the defense? Nolan is a problem....and running the 3-4 is a problem. We haven't stopped anybody....which makes you wonder why the crazy coaching decisions. MM just doesn't trust his defense to get a stop....ever.

The Falcons lost in the most Cowboy way possible.

yup ....snatching defeat from victory ......

forged in fire theory.

That kick was beautiful. Literally looked to have no chance to reach 10 yards. That is practiced I promise. Our guys knew what might transpire. Watch the alignment and movement of our wing defenders. It was chess: they screened recovery team allowing ball to travel, and Goodwin was angled for the recovery at 8 yards deep.

Luck is the intersection of preparation and opportunity.

Best onsides kick I've ever seen, bar none.

[lukin2006]

The tight end position performed well at least in the passing game. Cee Dee Lambs 1st career 100 yard receiving game. The first of many.

 

[KJJ]

The Cowboys overcame a 19 point deficit. I could be wrong but I’m thinking the most points the Cowboys have ever over come to win a game was 21 back in 1983. I believe it was a Monday night game against Washington. The Darrell Green game where he burst on to the scene chasing Tony Dorsett down from behind.

 

[Darkhound]

Get lost.

NO.. YOU GET lost... and see thing for what they are!!!!
Did you look at their faces? ANWER MY QUESTION
