Game Day ***Cowboys vs Packers Post Game Thread***

[Mark]

He also set a Cowboys playoff record today with 403 yards passing.

Dak is now tied with Alex Smith and Billy Kilmer for the worst playoff record by a QB at 2-5

Dak usually looks good on paper.

Add in Miami and Detroit. All of those games were hints. Defense had nothing.

It was all about Quinn and his piss poor scheme....go and look @ all the losses....CBs playing soft....huge cushions. LBers playing out of position. Why Marquise Bell is your MLB in the red zone was just unbelievable....kid continued to run around blocks....taking himself out of plays.

little thing: Schoonmaker. Didn't get oob when he had the chance there at the end.

It was meaningless as far as this game goes, but you'd hope a guy drafted as high as him would maintain situational awareness from start to finish

Microcosm of the team, generally, with regards to situational football.

A fact I'm sure he and his agent will highlight during upcoming negotiations.

That pissed me off along with Turpin fair catching the ball inside the 10 on a punt which led to a Dak Interception inside the 20. Then trying to return a kickoff from the end zone and not even getting to the 15 yard line. Just stupid situational football when yards and field position are ultra important.

Seized more of the same apparently.

Special teams play, all around, regressed precipitously over the past few weeks.

Blocked/missed FGs & EPs. Fooled by two successful fake punts. Silly penalties.

Overall our special teams is mediocre. We have a great kicker and punter but the coverage teams and return teams aren’t good.

We are now in a very familiar position. Year after year change is made hoping it fixes the underperforming in the playoffs. But now it should be obvious the right change has not been made yet and that's cutting bait with Dak. I think we can win with Mike McCarthy so I hope he is retained. The accountability should fall on Dak. He's the one who was careless with the football. It was player execution, not the coaching that failed us. So I hope Jerry makes the right decisions by keeping McCarthy and firing Dak.

If only the guys on this team had this type of passion.

Ok you can stop with this. Coaching was a huge reason why we lost today. Not only did our defensive coordinator put our players in positions they hadn’t played in all season but the team looked unfocused, unmotivated, and unprepared. That falls on the coaching staff just as much as the players.

Tommy Cutlets and the Giants outplayed Love and Green Bay.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Keep complaining about the QB drafted at the very end of the 4th round and forget the GM who doesn't know how to build a team capable of helping said QB.
If you want real quality at QB, you need to draft one in the first round (preferably in the top half).
The last time we spent a first round pick on a QB?
35 years ago!

Who appoints and keeps the coaches?

Who do you think?

He's right. Every team this century has just been mentally weak.

13-3 1 seed = one and done
13-3 1 seed = one and done
12-5 2 seed = one and done

The cultural identity of the Cowboys is that of chokers and underachievers. It has been like this for entire 21st century.
