Agreed. Wish McCarthy would make the 1st string Offense play some during Preseason. This way the Offense doesn't start the Regular Season so rusty or out of sync/timing at times.
If they were going ball control, they sure weren't doing it right. The run game is a problem for sure (and I blame a lot of it on that) but Dallas threw 63% of the time in the 2nd half (12 passes to 7 rushes). Dak went 6 for 12 for 28 yards. He had a good first half, he just didn't play that well in the 2nd half. He is not the only QB to have a bad half this weekend. It happens. I just don't get why people have to be labelled a hater for pointing that out (that is so ridiculously disingenuous IMO), doesn't diminish that he played well enough to get us out to a big lead and win the game.
Nope, not here. One half of football is all we need to declare Championship and MVP.......I've just secured an Airbnb crib in New Orleans for the big game.
Yes, that 2nd Half was nowhere near good enough. Pretty sure Coach McCarthy is currently getting the Offense to clean it up.
The game is happening in Big D, brother Shabazz. lolNope, not here. One half of football is all we need to declare Championship and MVP.......I've just secured an Airbnb crib in New Orleans for the big game.
Mine has a Switch……..what ever happened to those Dak FansLet the triggering begin in 3...2...1...
Ball control doesn't mean you're going to run straight into the line over and over. We played conservative. He wasn't willing to risk an interception. He knew the score and played smart. When we needed points the qb helped us to get points. It's really that simple.
The Cowboys haven't been the same since the CAP caused the destruction of the 90's SB team. This FO doesn't seem to have a clue on how to get over the playoff hump.Oh ok!
So all those narrative about Cap Hell is exactly what?
It's was nearly a 50/50 split run/pass. We weren't pushing the ball. I guess my lying eyes told the truth. It's over now anyway. These guys continue to hate the qb after he's assured to be here for another 4 years minimum. At some point get on board and shut up. He's your qb, and this is your team. Doesn't mean you can't criticize, but lose the agenda already. It's tiresome.Yes, that 2nd Half was nowhere near good enough. Pretty sure Coach McCarthy is currently getting the Offense to clean it up.
A statistical breakdown by half shows that Dak Prescott & Co. did next to nothing for the final 30 minutes of play.
It’s worth noting that KaVontae Turpin’s electrifying punt return for a touchdown in the third quarter, while furthering the Cowboys’ lead, automatically reduced the offense’s second-half opportunities in every one of these categories.

he is talking about the SB,
Doh! My bad. lol
Cowboys can do whatever they want. They just have to manipulate contracts. They choose not to do it. We’ve never not been able to sign a player we wanted.Oh ok!

It’s baloney that’s what it is lolOh ok!

I don’t think you can stop it everyone looked rusty even with preseason. I think the only way to do it is if you play starters a half or three quarters.
