Game Day *** Cowboys vs Vikings 2nd Half game thread ***

[BourbonBalz]

Our offense got into Minnesota territory on every single possession. We should have more than 14 on the board, but we couldn’t finish drives in the first quarter.

 

[TheHerd]

Screens and tightend, needs attention.

Always. We can't stop a screen, and we can't run a screen.

 

[BigBlacKahuna]

Please Garrett, make adjustments and come out strong..........pleeaassee?

 

[links18]

2 evenly matched teams....close score....what else would one expect?

Not to get blown out of the stadium in the first quarter?

 

[bayeslife]

Need a game plan to stop the Cook screens. They’ve been going for 7+ every time.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Two horrible plays by Awuzie.

Couldn't stop that horrible pass with the WR falling down.

Then let the next guy get to the sidelines. He should have closed to him in the middle of the field so that someone else might have a chance to keep him from the sideline if (when) he missed.

He's guarding one of the best receivers out there. Stefan Diggs is the truth. IT was a terrible pass and he made a play. Sometimes you have to credit the receiver. And the other play....he couldn't tackle Dalvin Cook? I mean can't fault him for that.

Lots of people want to trash the defense, but I'm telling you our frontline is the best in the NFC. Philly does not match up well with us at all we'll destroy their O line, and harass Wentz all day.

I think this cowboy team will raise its play in the playoffs, and just might be the team to beat finally. Of course injuries play a big role, but so far so good.

The problem is getting to the playoffs with Garrett.

 

[Carson]

Cousins is in some pretty big trouble this half 3-4 sacks and many hits coming

Lets hope we send the dogs! We need old Kirk to come back

 

[EST_1986]

Is Heath hurt or benched?

Hopefully both

 

[Fizziksman]

cousins is more a less begging for us to take away the ball from him with some of his deep passes but instead we give him an easy way out and just give him the little easy short dink and dunk.

NFC East, yes. NFC, hell no.

 

[BourbonBalz]

Why do we refuse to get our RBs involved in the passing game?

Good question.

Not if Richard is hell bent on calling plays that gives up the easy passes.

 

[Blue&Silver]

LOL.

You realize we are losing right?

And our DL matters little if the back seven just gives up pass after pass.

We'll see. I see a win in this game, and just getting better from here. If you have a consistent pass rush the quarterbacks will eventually start making mistakes all over the field.

Yep, thank god they have 3 pro bowlers out.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

I expected Zeke to run to the outside once in a blue moon.

 

[KMY_Amber]

Gotta blitz Cousins and please do a screen to zeke.. why is that play not used ever.. does garrett not know what a screen is?

Yes, the offensive play calling is so so bad, especially early. The first 10 to 15 plays of every game barely scare the defense, just Zeke runs, and play action dink and dunks. No downfield throws, just safe crap.

Week after week, no changes, just pound the rock, and either punt or try for a FG (and even that's rare).

Damn coaches!

I swear the Cowboys players have to win in spite of the coaching.

 

[CWR]

I said he’s been clean on third down, which he has. The Jarwin pass on third for example was all the OL.

Half that has been him rolling out. It hasnt all been protection.

 

[Turkish-Cowboy]

Chido is on the receiving end of a ton of 3rd down conversions. He has become a serious liability.

Reminds me of Carr's last year in Dallas.

 

[gmoney112]

Need a game plan to stop the Cook screens. They’ve been going for 7+ every time.

Clog the middle of the field and spy Cook with Lewis.

We probably won't do that.
