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

[Rogerthat12]

I am not defending any of this crap, this team is going nowhere fast.

 

[popp1234]

Statistically, last season is currently an anomaly in the Garrett era. You not buying it doesn't change that self-evident fact.

Forgive me, but I do beleive you are changing the context in which you are using the word "anomaly".

 

[Everson24]

This team needs turnovers to win and are not getting them.

22 of 24 quarters with zero turnovers. That is absolutely pathetic.

 

[jobberone]

4 losses and a bitter pill. Still only 4 losses. How many losses do all the rest have?

 

[The Natural]

22 of 24 quarters with zero turnovers. That is absolutely pathetic.

No interceptions, no fumbles, so sack-strips, nothing.

 

[Vintage]

The problem is they still won. End of discussion. All of that stuff is part of football the last time I checked. We choked. Yet again.

Oh my god, they won? No way. I thought we did???? Oh. Em. Gee.

It was merely a musing. I am fully aware of not only who won but also how the standings work. Were you proclaiming after the Eagles game that nothing else mattered because we won? Or, do things that occur during the game, regardless of the outcome, matter?

Pick .

But don't reply. Mainly because I don't care what your response is.

@Floaty

he is tied up the next week in the World Series....

 

[RunDMC]

No interceptions, no fumbles, so sack-strips, nothing.

But the defense deserves no blame.

This is the same defense as 2011-2012.

Yeah they'll get sacks, but horrific secondary play and no takeaways.

remind you of anyone?

Call me crazy, but I don't think Cassel cost us the game. That pick 6 INT was a good throw but a failure on the part of the receiver to break on the ball. Was the 'floater' giving the Giants possession at their own 1 yard line really a 'costly' play? Was Cassel on the coverage team on the 100 yard kickoff return? Did Cassel screw that pass-interference call on the legit screen pass with legit blocking that took 4 points away from the Cowboys (and may have been the difference at the end)?

At least I saw some hope with a quarterback that can actually make the opposing defense think about having the ball thrown downfield and it looked like the rushing game was starting to click again, and the defense played pretty well also considering all the gifts given to the Giants. We'll see what happens next week.

 

[TheDude]

lol! You know it's coming, though.

that's been here for 4 weeks

 

[Aven8]

Another thing, in two games these season, O'dell Beckham is as overrated as they come.

If I have to see that Woodstock looking fool again it will be too soon!

This secondary is bad, in particular both S's and Carr.

Mo has been ok and I do like Jones.

 

[Brooksey]

I would have, too. Once we saw it was working well. With the few wrinkles to Lucky we threw in there.

Still, though, the ST score and the ST turnover would probably have been enough to tube us. We just can't be having mistakes in those situations when we're compromised at QB in the first place.

Cassel lost the game, he made some throws Weeden cant make but we asked to much of him the way the running game was working, regardless of the kr td.

The passing game lost the game.

The player cost us points and directly provided points to the opposing team. That being said, he isn't solely to blame. He did get the ball going downfield a few times more than his predecessor.

 

[ShiningStar]

Don't agree with that. Other than the duck. The other two throws were on the money. They were just into coverages that he should't have been throwing into. Or the WR didn't make the play to help the QB out.

whether you want to agree with that or not, we already have the info we need. Ours WRs arent known for good separation. So we have to take that into account. Our QB cant throw long, so take that into account. Our running game was doing ok but we didnt have good moderate throws to give it help. We had good throws but ill give him 1 interception but after that you have to limit him. We tried it again and got burned. Thats being stupid.

Every team in the division has at least 3. Philly might have 4 at the end of the night.

Mo has been very good and Byron looks like a potential star down the road. Problem is everyone else is bad to terrible.
