Such a good pick of Dak putting lip stick on his WR options.

LOL.

The Eagles still only have 1 loss. They have a two game lead on us. They likely will only lose once down the stretch, if that assuming we can figure out why we've played poorly the last couple of weeks. They will be the #1 seed. Their QB is probably going to be the MVP, or finish 2nd to Mahomes.

There is zero question, that right now, the Eagles are a better team. We have 4 games left to find our groove heading into January.

Again, there is nothing controversial in these comments.

Regardless they did just what we did, won some games the had to claw to win and lost a game they had no business winning and are praised for it.

Did you actually watch the game? Like I understand you hate Dak but just wondering if you actually saw what happened for 4 quarters or saw the box score and saw 2 picks and assumed everything was Daks fault.

The answer's somewhere in between. Great last drive, helped by two fabulous catches by Noah and Schultz (which made up for the missed sitter in the end zone), but there was very little in Dak's game that didnt bring back the concern that as soon as everything's not perfect (in this case Steele's injury) he seems to somewhat panic.

Everything that went terrible early in the game was before Steele went down. Muffed punt for points, a drop that led to a pick for points, and 3 addl drops including 1 in the endzone. Btw - the drop by Schultz in the end zone was after the other drops when things weren’t perfect…

Again, the game shouldn’t have even been close before Steele went down.

Then you'll agree we went to the pass way too early?

PA passing on first down was money in the first quarter. It was our easiest drive of the game.

We started sucking when we ran the ball 1st and 2nd down every drive and became super predictable. Running early has worked in the past this year, it didn’t today and Kellen struggled to adjust.

I don't think there was much "good" today at all.
There wasn't. I never been the type to complain about a win or how you get it.....but this team should definitely take this as a loss struggling with the Texans. No way around that.

Give someone enough chances, eventually you have to come through.It took one of the worst teams in football to do so.

This is the way I look at it. The offense played bad. The defense played bad, but at the end of the game, the defense made the stop on 4th and goal and then the offense drove the field to win it.

Definitely not an impressive win by any stretch. But we won and they pulled it out. Would have been much much worse if we actually lost.

I thought SF and the Eagles were better than we were before this game so nothing has changed for me regardless.

What about Dak's QBR of .....24.
You dont accept any of Dak's responsibility and that he played poorly. Oh and you're dead wrong on the run game, 14 points from first 3 drives off 74 yards (of a total of 127 rushed all game).

A win is a win, but it wasn’t pretty.

Inside their own 10, late in the fourth quarter, and behind on the score board ? Good QB’s don’t because of the possibility of an interception….. cause that never happens right ?
So if Mahomes is in the 10.....and has Kelce double teamed...you're telling me he's going to just eliminate him from the play? That's the dumbest thing i've ever heard in my life.

Its funny though. Dak use to do this and people claimed he didn't "take chances" or "throw into double coverage" or "throw guys open". Now its a problem lol. I mean I already know what it is on this site with some of y'all the fact y'all are acting like this after a W tells me all I need to know. Some guys seem disappointed we actually won lol.

Lol. Ok. Whatever. Needing a last second drive to beat a 1 win team in Dallas…let’s brag about that.

I’m sure you were t

lol. Keep performing that trick.
I'm not bragging about anything but I sure as hell won't apologize for enjoying a W. Our first back to back over 10 win season in forever. Yeah.......you can't kill my joy. Its for McCarthy to get in this teams *** and get them back on track. As a fan? I'm enjoying the dub.

Of course I do. The 2nd pick was awful.

Most everything before that was his team around him crapping the bed.

Just atrocious and the Cowboys pay 40 million a year for that garbage.

You just cant do it, you still apportion blame to the team and away from Dak. His QBR was 24 (even with a game winning play-off drive).

This is just part of Stats Prescott strategy. Allow the team to fall behind to bad teams so he can easily pad his comeback win stat.


It’s next level manipulation.
