If we had a QB worth a crap we would still be on this game

Hey look on the bright side! he had 103 yards passing in the 1st half, that puts him of pace for 206!!!....assuming of course he can throw another screen pass that goes for 45 yards

 

[Avery]

You remember when we scored TD’s? I don’t.

Offense is good at getting to the 35 and then crumbles.

 

[Parcells4Life]

The offense hasn’t been on the field much. No 3 and outs. 2 nice drives and last one should have been in red zone if Austin could catch.

Defense needs to get off the field

 

[85Cowboy85]

Most times I would say go for it, but in that situation against our offense you can make a legitimate case for just kicking the field goal.

 

[Clove]

He's been popped at least 3 times like that by my count.

Yes he has, and one of those is going to be lights out. He's not a running back.

 

[Zordon]

OK I thought their Oline was supposed to suck. Dang & I said 6 sacks in my prediction.

why?

seriously if you've watched this team closely the last few years you'd know this team NEVER takes advantage of their opponent's weakness or injuries. NEVER.

 

[MojaveJT]

D stepped up....but it showed the Texans don't respect the 'Boys (especially on offense, outside of Zeke).

Yep. And it’s working for them. QB and receivers need to step it up.

 

[John813]

Boy, I dont miss election commercials. Think there was 3 in a row in my area .

[Jason 82 Witten]

Nice legs/speed by Jaylon. TERRIBLE tackling. Is there something wrong with his arms? He's lucky the QB didn't just bounce off that "tackle" and take it into the end zone. Who is teaching tackling on this team?

Well he didn’t just bounce it off that “tackle” and take it into the end zone

 

[tyke1doe]

It's always one of the following combinations:

• Bad offense, bad defense
• Good offense, bad defense
• Bad offense, good defense

Pick one

For this game, bad offense, good defense.
Yes, the defense is giving up yardage. But it has held the Texans to 10 points. That's pretty good. We've squandered our chances on offense.
But we still have another half to get it right - or wrong.

 

[gmoney112]

This "actually scheme for the other team and try to attack" on offense every other game nonsense is exactly how we end up 8-8

No wonder Romo changed a ton of plays

 

[Texasfootball21]

Tony Dungy said Dak P needs to step up his game to win the second half. Sound about right to me.

 

[morat1959]

Ok....are there really fans on this board that believe this team is going anywhere this year or any other year with this regime in place after what y’all have seen tonight, this season and the last 20+ seasons?

 

[droopdog7]

I mean, if we can’t force them to punt we’re not going to win.

 

[Clove]

Houston just gave us 3 points. Thanks

 

[Juggernaut]

For all but three seconds of the first half, the Cowboys defense had no answers for the Texans, but Jaylon Smith stopped DeShaun Watson short on fourth-and-goal from the 1 to keep Houston’s lead at 10-6 at halftime. Watson threw for 180 yards and ran for 36 yards. In their last six quarters, all without Sean Lee, the Cowboys have allowed eight pass plays of at least 20 yards. The Cowboys have to come up with answers in the second half because Houston could have (or should have) scored on all four of their first-half possessions. They missed a field goal on their first drive and had the Watson stop on their last.

 

[reddyuta]

Zero confidence in Dak,we are losing the QB battle big time.
