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

[Buzzbait]

hope La'el Collins is ok.
I dont care how ugly or pretty they are.....they dont have to be perfect.
JUST.
WIN.

Don't we all! We definitely need Collins back. The way the defense is playing, we need all our offense in tact.

Anyone see Dak is now leading the league in passing yards? Coming into this week, Rivers was ahead by 39 yards. The Chargers are on bye next week. So through 10 games played, Dak is leading the league in passing. He is on pace to pass for 5100+ yds. No idea if he will get there but should have plenty of opportunities if the defense and running game continue to not show up for 4 quarters. For a QB that constantly gets beat down and people make jokes about dinking and dunking, it would be awesome to see him lead the league in passing.

dak sure is not dinking and dunking no more that is for sure. I just the wish the running game would pick it up. it would help our awful defense stay off the field more if we could control the clock more. Elliott is on pace for 1,000 yards but it sure does not seem like he is.

Our game plan going in.....you know it's gonna be a shoot out. We have more weapons than Patriots...Just saying.

They get to play against our defense. No weapons necessary. We're going to have to put up 35+. Which won't be easy against that defense.

 

[Buzzbait]

Either way we will be playing the Patriots in New England that in itself is a whole different game first we will be terribly outcoached before the game even starts, and our defense is not very good their offense is not playing very well or as well as they used to but that won't matter with our defense. The offense will need to come out and play all four quarters no doubt about it and then hope the defense can get a stop or two. I am trying to be optimistic I am very nervous

Our defense vs Tom Brady is good reason to be nervous.

The iggles carving up the Patriots defense

For 10 points.

Our defense against Mickey Mouse is good reason to be nervous.

The running will pick up when the O line gets back to basics. Fredricks is definately not up to par, C Williams looked lost, even Zack Martin gets pushed back into the play. Its not all Zekes fault.

Big Whoop, beat the sorry arse Lions without Stafford.

This defense is still a joke.

Too bad for Garrett we are just about out of suck teams for him to play. Let’s see how Clappy does against Belichick and the GOAT next week.

LMAO.....I already have a good idea of what is going to happen.

6 games left.

1 game lead over Philadelphia with a game against them.

at New England 9-1
Buffalo 7-3
at Chicago 4-6
LA Rams 6-4
at Philadelphia 5-5
Washington 1-9

3 of 6 games against teams with winning records.
3 of 6 games are cold weather road games.

1 game seems like a gimme and we need to find one win in the three games against Buffalo, at Chicago, or against the Rams (very doable).

If that holds up, it's really going to come down to that Eagles game.

3 wins gets us to 9-7. The Eagles would have to go 5-0 (besides us) to win the division without beating us in that Week 16 game. That road game really will be the season.

We're going to have to earn this and if we do, the likely prize is a very good Seattle team.

If we somehow beat New England and the Eagles lose to Seattle next week, blowing the division from that point would be an epic failure.

I think that game will probably be an offensive shootout.

They'll have Bellichick and Brady over there scheming and adjusting, and we'll have....well, we'll have high fives and clapping.

Agreed, but, if Dak can continue to play well, we might have a chance. We need Zeke to step it up as well. This is one of the key games where he better put his money where his mouth is. He wanted all that money. He did all that holding out. Now is the time for him to show us it was worth paying him as much as we did.

Odds are whoever wins that week 15 game will win the division.

Garrett may very well be coaching for his job that game.
