Game Day ***Cowboys vs Lions Post Game thread***

[ICP]

Yep, they had a plan

 

[Dallas5xchamps]

Terrance Steele damn near got Dak turned into a pretzel tonight. I think going forward we need to give him help, or Dak's going to get hurt.

Both can’t report. Then all ol should report every play.

I think I just figured it out. Watch the play again and see where they line up. I think none head didn’t want admit what he was actually told bc it’s so obvious. Rules state you must have seven players on the line he only has five as his other te is not in three point stance. Also he must have online receiver as his interior lineman which he doesn’t have on the right side. It’s illegal formation regardless of reporting.

He had a nice screen play, but those should be going to Turpin imo

and then people are complaining it was a sloppy win and its nothing to be proud of

San Francisco beat us in a much uglier fashion in the playoffs last year anyone complain?

welcome to playoff football, it gets ugly

I think there's a good chance if we meet them again, we win by more than that. (Of course, since it will probably be on the road, we likely would be lucky just to survive it). We had some "mistakes" that we shouldn't have made, particularly Lamb fumbling through the end zone. Detroit did, too, but that one was probably the biggest. Much like Luepke fumbling against Miami made a difference in that game.

Shame. He seemed promising last year.

I thought so too. But seems like a lot of mental errors this year.

 

[Adiba1977]

You see that blocking??? Trash. What you want rb do. Even on screen Martin didn’t finish the block. Ol is soft!!!!!

 

[Rayman70]

He's pretty good, no coach is perfect. Landry's teams lost 3 of 5 Super Bowls. HOF is full of coaches who lost Super Bowls.

we'd like better game decisions, but overall, I'll roll with him for now...

Well said. Until a better option is available. Right now. We good.

 

[jazzcat22]

Van Pelt still going on about it. But they won’t acknowledge he still was not covered up. So it would have been an illegal formation.

 

[CTcowboy203]

I’m not a deuce super fan even back in the offseason and pre season like some were but if anything I would have liked to see him get a few more touches early in the game or at least come check downs or screens because pollard was terrible.

 

[Rayman70]

Oh and btw, Ceedee is that dude!!We see him dominate almost every week.

Van pelt is leaving out facts. It was a flag .

 

[stilltheguru]

This is lame. If you put Marshall Faulk in for those 2 runs you get 2 yards. Why the agenda?

 

[gimmesix]

The Cowboys played awful and still won. Concerned about the running game. I think our blocking is out of wack along with the play design. Dak and CeeDee is lethal.

Thought Bass did a nice job when he had to come in for Tyler.

 

[CrownCowboy]

Doesn’t matter. They tried to trick the cowboys with 3 guys running at the ref and ended up fooling the ref. They had their shot and missed on the short throw.

That's exactly what they tried to do and it blew up in their face.

 

[buybuydandavis]

MM on deep pass on 2nd down instead of making Detroit use their timeouts: 'we're trying to put it away.'

He's learned nothing.

We didn't need more points, we just needed to run out the clock.
Sad that needs to be pointed out to our HC.

 

[Strykerscm]

Release the hobbit

 

[Havic]

O-line is in shambles and I heard Troy / Buck throw out a stat saying the preferred O-line combo has only played together for approx 50% of the season

 

[jazzcat22]

Finally. NFLN said, there were 3 penalties on the play.

illegal touching
illegal man down field
illegal formation

Darren Sproles had 50 yards rushing and 10 yards receiving in his first season. 60 yards - total.

I'm not saying Deuce will be Sproles 2.0, but anyone expecting an immediate impact from him was dreaming.
