*** Cowboys vs Raiders Game Thread***

[Doomsdayblitz]

These first four games came out about like I figured....better really. I'm really excited about the future. Our rookies are coming on, our QB had a bad game, but he'll be back. Hey, give the Raiders their due. They were hanging by a thread, and they came out like a desperate team should, angry.
Don't dispair, Cowboy fans. This season will get better. We have taken every team we've played down to the wire...with a bunch of rookies on defense trying to learn a new system, and a new QB on offense. The only thing I'm disappointed about is the offensive line. They should be blocking better by now.
Good thing there's a mess of OTs available in next years' draft.

Coaches need to go back and read "Coaching for Dummies".

Bledsoe needs to read "Passing for Dummies."

Terrible all around today.

Hopefully next week will be better.

 

[Jammer]

C'mon, did anyone really think the game woud be this low scoring? I can't believe we lost the game on downs that close to the endzone

 

[Put Henson In]

our playcalling was designed for us to lose.

 

[Cbz40]

Just need one question answered.....Why did we not throw to Witten more?

 

[PrimeTime22]

I just can't get over how bad this O-line has played, there's no way JJ can get any yardage if the holes keep closing as fast as they have been so far.

 

[vicjagger]

Lost to a winless team. We suck.

 

[Brave]

Oakland

13 penalties for 85 yards

 

[Windmill]

Time to watch the Eagles leave us behind in the dust of the NFC East.

I am so tired of BP's conservative offense. DB never threw the ball down field until we were in the fourth quarter. I hate that style of play. It doesn't attack. It plays not to lose. It'd be great if we had a coach who coached to win, not to lose. We will never go anywhere with him. Period.

 

[mrecktid]

The Eagles? We're 2-2, the Skins are 3-0, the Giants are 3-1. EVERYONE will be leaving us behind in the dust.

 

[Put Henson In]

There's always next year. 8-8 at best this year. We have the players to win 10 but the coaching to win 6.

 

[Mash]

we could be the worst team in our division......and one without a young QB (sorry Henson) with potential.

 

[TwentyOne]

Now we all know where we going this season!

We have a good team. Our Defence is coming together. But our team is not so good to overcome bad coaching (playcalling) on both sides of the ball.

This is it. Seasons over. Get the young guns some experience and a high draft pick. Get rid of this Zimmer-guy. I can't stand him anymore and let Payton have an earfull of BP!

I am so depressed right now!!!!!!

 

[Gaede]

I really don't like what Payton's doing with this offense.

Or Zimmer. I think we probably have the wussiest 3-4 in the history of time . not seriously, but a blitz would be more than welcome

On the plus side, our rookies look good (already) and pass defense didn't get shredded

 

[Windmill]

That's what I meant. Before today we were tied with the Eagles and they are the last team to leave us behind.

I'm pissed! We continue to enter every game with the same LOUSY CONSERVATIVE "play not to lose style." Instead of designing our O to attack our opponents weakness, we play to our opponent's strengths. Everyone knows the Raiders are tough to run inside against, and are vulnerable on sweeps and passes. So, what do we do? We do the same thing we've been doing all year, playing the same old conservative style of ball that always costs us the game. How many games do we have to lose until BP realizes that our best chance of winning comes from being aggressive, and attacking our opponents weaknesses. We have the weapons! We should of activated Price and attacked the Raider's secondary all day, and used the pass to back off the safeties for JJ. We are pathetic, but I don't blame the players, I blame BP for failing to change with the times, and realize that our best chance of winning comes from attacking and being aggressive. I really believe that if the Raiders secondary starters were all out injured, and we were facing backups in their secondary, we still would be running JJ between the tackles for 1 yard gains! ***!!!

I agree with you guys, you have to dictate some attitude...
Yep the offense is predictable...
Just like our nickle D...

 

[Cowboy4ever]
