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

[mattjames2010]

If only Zeke got injured like your favorite running back. Then we wouldn’t have to worry about fumbles

My "favorite running back" when the running game wasn't working got 99 yards receiving today.

 

[JonesBoys]

well I guess all the naysayers were right about Dallas not playing anyone and pump the brakes on them until they do.

 

[Shadyroc]

We lost the game when we went for field goal in first quarter. Field goals are for losers.

except they beat us with field goals.

 

[panchucko]

I notice that when we score 30 points it's Kellen Moore's offense, and when we score 10 points it's Garrett's offense.

That’s the way it works

Well, at this point the most important thing is finding out how bad Smith is hurt. If he missed time those are Ls.

It looked to be a sprained MCL type of injury. He was wearing a brace on that knee, so that might have saved him.

Terrible gameplan tonight. We didn't test them at all. And played right into their strengths.

This.

Exactly. *** were we doing?

No presnap motion. Dak under center. Running into 10 in the box. Just awful.

 

[Zman5]

This was the typical JG offensive game plan we've seen past 10 years. What happened to all the motions, RPOs, triple options and Dak's design runs that was working past 3 games?

JG probably thought playing in NO, the conservative game plan was probably the way to go. Until JG's stench is removed from this team, we aren't going anywhere.

The offense unable to overcome the two fumbles and bad PI calls just couldn’t get untracked.
Defense played well and special teams on each side were not a factor.

 

[boysfanperiod]

I hate playing SNF. I hate when the analysts all pick us.

The Cowboys just told their kicker they have no faith in him. Can't blame them, though.

I hate how ugly we played and that one TD Dak missed Cobb on was the decider.

 

[Tim93gt]

This is not a good team.... yet. They’ve proven nothing.

 

[BigD5]

where the **** was zeke?

Zeke should've stayed in Cabo

Jerry can pay me a couple hundred thousand and I could equal his production from tonight

 

[crazytown41]

The haters were right and cackling. We had a cupcake schedule

 

[Buzzbait]

Offense looked like trash. Too many penalties and turnovers. Dak needs to run at least 2 or 3 times a game especially one 3rd down.

So did the defense. They got pushed all over the field with LONG time consuming New Orleans drives. Then when we finally got the ball back, our running game died in Cabo, and the passing game....well, what passing game?

 

[Xeven]

Why no Pollard?

 

[aikemirv]

Online was my biggest disappointment of this game-poor job by them!

 

[Dre11]

losing against a saints led brees is one thing. losing against the backup qb is another

You're weak, backups are winning across the league, they have weapons too. Get on the raft you don't belong on the ship

 

[ryanbabs]

It sucks that we lost, but 12-10 is a good game

31-28 is a good game. Hate seeing this offense so putrid.

 

[85Cowboy85]

The play calling is the same. When you execute up front the offense looks good. When you can't block anybody, can't run the ball, and Dak has to dump it off 5 out of every 6 passes the offense looks bad. It's not rocket science.

 

[tyke1doe]

Dak held the ball to long tonight, he was very uncomfortable at what he was seeing downfield tonight

Based on what I saw, there was tight coverage by the Saints defenders.
I can't fault Dak. He really didn't have a lot of time to throw and his receivers weren't getting open.

 

[links18]

. Moore could be horrible for all we know.

Moore looked like Linehan tonight.
