Dak wasn’t good, BUT run defense is why they lost and will keep losing

No it's not. Spotting the opposing team it's first 14 points was. They coulda went up 10-0 instead it was a 7-7 ball game to start. He is trash.

Could sure use somebody like roquan Smith to help stop the run.

But we are too enamored with guys like Brandin cooks. Anything to help Dak and justify his huge contract

Saquon is licking his lips for Thanksgiving Day. And it has nothing to do with the turkey.

Earlier in the season they were struggling vs the run but were also making some tackles for a loss. Right now teams are in 3rd and 3 or less on every series, hard to get off the field like that.

They were clearly worn out late in the game and couldn't mount a pass rush either.

The 2 interceptions and field position, along with the defense being on the field, did not help them

The offense once again got the lead and then decided to coast. This is pretty standard operating procedure with this offense where they just decide to turn it off and stop playing through different spells of the game. Look at the way they started. Came out with no urgency, misfiring on offense. Honestly it looked like this team didn't practice through the bye week and just mailed it in

I think the issue was not running the ball. Pollard and Davis were running really good, and we did not run the ball like we should have.

Run D bad...
But killer was holding penalties after big runs especially in OT. That was a back breaker
