Garrett sucks!! Isn't it funny how they always seem to beat up on garbage teams but can't do squat against better competition?

 

[Turkish-Cowboy]

How about playing all our home games in Detroit. They definitely make more noise than in Dallas.

Dak is the man.

 

[Risen Star]

Pollard!

Cowboys!

 

[Clove]

Amari is playing injured - good decoy though.

 

[Teague31]

Pretty hard to allow only 100 yards but give up 14 points.

 

[darthseinfeld]

This could get ugly for Detroit

D has to start tackling better. Stop expecting someone else to finish the job. Early in season they were great, dunno what happened

I can't tell you how happy I am that we've become a passing team.

Now of we could just start Pollard.

Just got back from my sons all star team practice. So Dak is the best player on the team it looks like. Defense and special teams suck. That is all

 

[KMY_Amber]

They are better passing the ball than running the ball right now.

Yep, and we all see it. So now, just pounding the rock early in the game, it's simply letting the opposing defense off. But I still think they should use play action often, because Zeke is still a threat. If they stop respecting the Play Action, simply take note when they don't, and mix in some timely runs...

We aren't going to make a deep playoff run with Zeke getting 30 carries, with a "3 yards and a cloud of dust" approach. It's going to be behind Dak's arm, Moore's creativity, and some timely runs by Zeke in the 2nd half, protecting leads.

In some games, Zeke can still be featured if the Cowboys want to exploit a bad run defense, but focus on that in the 2nd half. Let Dak and Moore go to work in the first half, sprinkling Zeke in.

It's time. Let Dak earn his big payday coming.

Side benefit: Zeke will then arrive in the playoffs more fresh, if they can make it in.

Amari is playing injured.

Clearly. And yet Wilson and Smith can’t make the game day roster. I don’t get it

Thats what happens when you turn the ball over deep on your side of the field

 

[Jeffkills]

Time for Dlaw and Zeke to earn some money...

Surgery & Cabo FTW!

Dallas always finds a way lol

Stop if you have heard this before: the Cowboys get off to a slow start and battle back. It’s kind of the story of the season. But having a halftime lead – like they do against Detroit, 24-14 – has been a good thing. All five Cowboys’ wins have come when they have led going to the locker room after two quarters. According to ESPN Stats & Info, the Cowboys’ 24 points are the second-most in the first half of Dak Prescott’s career. They had 27 vs. Philadelphia in Week 7.
