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

[MichaelWinicki]

Team is inconsistent. We knew that.

Good win though.

Seems like every team in the league is inconsistent.

 

[pastordug]

Wasn't able to watch but from following game on ESPN it seemed the defense showed up in the 2nd halve. Only 3 points! That's the way we need to play D every game! Way to go Boys! And props to Romo again....

 

[bulldozer]

Hope Dunbar is ok. Has anybody heard how bad his knee is?

 

[gimmesix]

This team is very consistent, actually. Not sure why anybody thinks we're inconsistent. We lost to good teams with good QBs, and beat the others.

And up until now, it usually wins one then loses one. (Guess we don't usually get two mediocre teams in a row.)

Irons will never be as good as Turduckhens.

Or the turkey with 5 drumsticks.

no....hoping and guessing it's a hyperextension because he was walking it off ON the sideline. IF they thought he had a sprained knee (ACL/MCL/PCL) he would not have been allowed to do that....I'm thinking.

5 of 7, baby. It just seems that way because everyone over here treated the MIN victory like a loss, for some reason.

lol Next it will be dusters. Its just wrong...

and those 3 pts were in garbage time, honestly i think this defense would be much better if they could get help from the offense like today

Cbs post game not giving us any love.

Hope he can get back to 100% in the next 11 days he is winning me over.

When they were down 21-7 I never had any doubt they'd come back and win.

Ugly performance though. You'd like to see them just impose their will on a bad traveling team on a short week.

I was a confident as you can be, down two scores to a bad team at home on a short week. But I think this was a case of a team playing above it's head for two quarters, and then getting our will imposed on it. Either way, that second half was great to see.

 

[JakeCamp12]

A win is a win, and I am glad after the emotional win over the Giants, they pulled it together to beat the Raiders. Now I hope we can heal up and get ready for a strong push for the Division title.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

You don't apologize for wins even ones that look like this. Every game isn't a 50 point butt whooping. People are so stuck on that. You get the W. Its not how you start its how you finish. This team came out at half and finished this game. I wish we could put 50 points up on the Raiders but we can't. But no one should feel bad or apologize for this win. Raiders would've loved to have it. Now their season is officially over.

I bet no one here saw three rushing TDs today, I know I didn't, so happy about it though

I think that and I think the fact that people get up to play us especially on Thanksgiving. We weren't going to get a bad Raiders team today. They weren't going to take us for granted. They wanted to knock us off our high horse. And not only that but they had 5 or 6 ex-Cowboys over there who i'm SURE all wanted to give us a L....well except Gurode lol.

I thought we were going to get a 3 or 4 TD performacne from Rom. NEVER in a million years did I expect Dunbar to have 80 yards and Demarco with 3 TD's.

 

[jobberone]

This way a decent win over a club that's getting better and has a QB playing well. I'm happy.
