Game Day *** Cowboys vs Rams 2nd Half thread***

[Fla Cowpoke]

That was a penalty which is usually called on the CBs. That was a pure stupid play by Jones.

I don't disagree...it was a penalty....but it happens a lot when guys press at the line. It certainly wasn't an intentional grab.

But how do you explain the in the grasp call?

We are destined to have some screwed up call every game we play. You just sit there waiting for it to happen. Then it does.

 

[ak47kaehu]

Interesting that there has been no read option and no designed play calls for Dak.

Back to predictability it seems

 

[alicetooljam]

"leaving the defense out there"

They did that to themselves.

One great drive to start the game, playcalling has NOT been the issue.

 

[Nova]

I wondered that as well. So did my friend (who is a 49er fan). Suspicious.

That’s normal for 1st half. 2nd half under 5 minutes the clock stops

 

[jblaze2004]

Defense getting manhandled at the line of scrimmage. 170 yards rushing allowed in the first half is crazy.

Make all the "adjustments" you want, but you aren't beating anyone giving up 300 yards rushing.

Reminds me of the colts game all over again. Getting dominated in the trenches. Getting out muscled.

 

[SoupcanSam]

Ummmmm....have you seen their OL driving our DTs off the ball and then going to the LBs? They are physically dominating.

Misdirection is throwing the whole defense off.

 

[sweetness0986]

Rams on place for 600 yards. Our offense can’t keep up. Our bread and butter is defense holding to 20 points or under + Zeke, Cooper and Dak’s legs. We are using none of these.

 

[ClappingCarrot]

Why do we all of a sudden have a linebacker rotation?

 

[ChronicCowboy]

Playoff games are won in the trenches. And our lines are not good.

 

[PUSHfold]

Collins got his first NFL sack that half....jesus christ.

 

[HungryLion]

Were not just getting out coached there Players are just far more talented. Damn they have 2 Great running backs and Goff is far more Talented than Dak and There D is playing All World.

2 great running backs?

CJ Anderson is a fat slob who was on the couch all season long.

Cowboys fans to the Football Gods after losing the lead in the second quarter:

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

Garrett doesnt coach the defense, fellas

Howie just said with a few inches here or there (two dropped TDs and dropped easy pick 6) this could be 35-7 right now

I say, shut up Howie

it was a stupid take as the INT takes away Gurley TD,

Yep, you called it

 

[texbumthelife]

The Cowboys have the people to win this game. They have the talent at every level. Thay said, they need a break and they need to be far more aggressive on both sides of the ball. I wish I could count on this staff to attack, but I can't, even on D. This is one of the reasons I don't want Richard for this D, he wants to stick to cover 3, read and react. Misdirection teams are going to eat this defense alive. All they're doing in the run game is selling the pull and hitting off the back side, every time. This is literally the reason blitzing was invented, to force that action and throw the OL off. We won't do it tho.

 

[Little Jr]

1. Our DL has to improve. They are getting gashed in the run game and getting no pressure on the QB. Over all front 7 need to step up.

2. Dak HAS TO RUN when he has an opening.

Down by 13 and get the ball the 2nd half. TD first drive, down by 6 as bad as we have played. But this reminds me of the Colts game where they dominated the LOS for 4qts.

 

[MysteryIceGuro]

Not playing good at all. Even if this team miraculously wins somehow, which I doubt we will with the way the defense is playing, we don’t deserve the Championship. Not with the way this team is playing.

 

[LACowboysFan1]

Dak could play better, but it would only make the score closer, not result in a win. Defense can't stop anything the Rams do...

 

[boysfanperiod]

They have a 13pt lead...

Sounds like they're doing everything right.

Yeah only one really bad play call, but Dak has missed a couple of big plays.
