Game Day Cowboys vs Redsk*ns Game Thread - 1st Half

[jobberone]

Dallas only punted once.

 

[Hoofbite]

Hard to score when you don't have the ball ...

Just under 14:00 of possession at half. I'd say that's enough.

 

[popp1234]

Poor offense or we're blowing them out

It was so predictable. Have we even tried to go down field?

 

[SportsGuru80]

Long season.... SMH

 

[MagicMan]

We can complain about the D all we want, but this bend don't break approach has the Skins scoring only 2 FG's for an entire half.

That's a serious moral victory for now ...

Let's see....... W--2 L--2 MV---1

No, we don't need another one......

 

[khiladi]

It sort of does, huh? Just an observation based on a handful of plays, but we're getting pressure up the lanes. I think RGIII is going to be running more against that in the second half, though. He looks like he could do it.

Yeah, Commanders success so far is really just RG3 keeping plays alive by wiggling out of rush...

 

[DFWJC]

Just win

 

[tico]

Ware update?

It's really all Griffin. Our mash unit of a DL is holding things together for the moment.

Our O needs to do a better job. 7 Offensive points is not going to do it.

We've only had 3 possessions so far ... 7 points out of 21 possible points isn't terrible, and not to mention the lucky pop up interception that occured.

 

[ScipioCowboy]

I swear, Bob Costas, stick with telling us how football enriches our lives and leave the social commentary to people who aren't you.

 

[MagicMan]

Washington should just change their name to deadskins......thats what we call them anyway.

 

[Gameover]

New England showed how he should be handled, put a corner ,physical guy on him , like scandrik, Carr and don't give him free release.

They were good enough to contain the other guys I don't see us having the same luck

Haslett's history of blitzing has completely forced the Cowboys to play within a 7-10 yd window instead of using the entire field. Commanders have effectively won that battle within the game.

 

[Gemini Dolly]

This offense has to get going. But, Romo seems jittered. Hes throwing cricket killers. Hes got to settle down. What is the word on Murray?

 

[dallasdave]

So far so good. Got to come out and play in second half(remember chargers game).

 

[DWhite Fan]

Middle of the D way to soft...

 

[kevm3]

Consistency is our biggest problem. One day the offense is looking lights out and the defense is getting lit up and the next day the offense is hardly doing anything, but the defense is holding. This will be another one of those games that come down to the end. This is one of those games that can cause heartbreak because we can put ourselves side by side with Philly and leave the rest of the division behind, but the cowboys never put their foot down in games like this to make a statement.

 

[RamziD]

Bob Costas on point yet again

...and how of you beat the blitz, once it's picked up?
