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

[risco]

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 been playing bad the past few games!

I'll never understand why we don't screen people to death - I bet we're saving that for the Patriots

Betting lines for our D letting them take the kickoff and go for 7

 

[Blue&Silver]

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.

Dak's hips don't lie

Not a good way for the Cowboys defense to end the half, giving up a 67-yard drive that ended in a field goal for a 17-14 lead for Minnesota. Chidobe Awuzie was beat for 27 yards by Stefon Diggs on a third down and failed to keep Dalvin Cook in bounds on a check down in the final seconds. Once again, the Cowboys got off to a slow start but they have battled back to get in contention, but the Vikings aren’t the Jets or Giants.

Dak is probably seeing more man coverage on the outside than any other QB in the league because of Zeke and the OL is pretty much giving Dak all day to throw on third. The Viking CBs are pretty much on an island with Cooper and Gallup all day long.

Calm down... Dak has it easy..

Agree completely. Obvious to anyone being objective.

 

[ItzKelz]

Got'em right where we want them. Best 3rd quarter team in the NFL. Dak Prescott on Dem chica's!!!

 

[pitt33]

Has Chido ever had a int?

He gives me heartburn

 

[gmoney112]

Zeke and Pollard are both really good receivers out of the backfield, but we never use them.

 

[Syron]

I actually think it's better they go into halftime down. They might come out pissed with a chip on their shoulder.

This 100 percent. I think that is part of the reason we come out slow. Look at the Eagles game. That gave them the chip to start. But this is probably exactly what they need. They put up 14 points and could have come out thinking it was already over.

You and I must be watching different games my friend. Dak hasn't been great, but to say his pocket has been clean, I think, is a bit off.

 

[ScipioCowboy]

Once again, the defense can’t hold down a good passing game. And the “once again” dates back ten years.

 

[Melonfeud]

Death by Dalvin.

He ain't crossed porkswords with our #38 yet, or his memoirs would be totally devoted to that one "near death experience" he Vividly recalls happeningt to him one time down in DALLAS,,,

 

[buybuydandavis]

Defense has sucked balls but at least Heath isn’t playing that much.

I ain't seen Thompson being a problem. That's usually a good game for a S.

 

[CB61]

The screen passes. Thats really all they have been able to get consistently

That's because the way we played defense is very well-known and the screen is our Achilles heel

 

[TooTall_Jones]

Every time they show Garrett's stupid face, I get angry.

Me too... I literally HATE him... he is a BUFFOON... defiantly holding up one finger for extra point... he does NOTHING and I mean NOTHING... I can not stomach another year of the puppet clapper

How do you know all this? I'm really curious how you're uncovering all this info from your flat inch TV screen.

If he's making all those plays on man coverage, doesn't that mean he's figuring out the Vikings defense?

Don't try to take anything away from him. He's been pretty much perfect on the last 2 drives - even though the first 3 were not good but not entirely his fault.

man minkah is ballin for the steelers... looks like a steal for that pick

LOL.

You realize we are losing right?

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