Pour another.So what do you do when you know your team isn’t good enough??

I don’t get why Dallas goes off the run committment when they are DEEEEEP in the redzone. Run game is ‘low risk/high reward’ IF you can do it. I have seen little evidence that Dallas CANNOT effectively run the ball in goal-to-go situations. ***, Schotty?
Bailing on the run way too early.....I’ll give the secondary a pass since we were playing 2 outside CBs who should be on the practice squad at best. We were playing 2 backup safeties with an undrafted rookie PSer at FS. After he was injured, we were playing Reddy Steward, our back up slot CB at safety.The worst DEs and LBs I’ve ever seen on a Cowboys team….ever.
Williams, Kneeland, Fowler, Houston, EZY…..not one of them can set the edge, and they seldom even beat 1-1 pass protection. Every single guy either doesn’t care to play gap control or is unaware of what gap control is or is simply unable to play their gaps because they aren’t strong enough. I think the book is out on our defense….double the DTs because our DEs won’t play their gap responsibilities anyway, or like Kneeland and Williams, will allow a WR to wash them out.
The LBs are not much better. They don’t seem to even know what’s going on around them, but what’s happening in front of them with these DEs may add to their confusion.
I’m so thankful that we traded Parsons….we need all the draft picks we can get to fix this garbage. Parsons simply covered for some issues against the bad teams where he feasted when we got leads and forced them to pass. But even he couldn’t help us against the good teams that ran roughshod over us every year. He simply lowered our draft picks in every round but never solved the defensive issues. I’ll just add that we probably miss our best run defender (DLaw) as much as we miss our best pass rusher (Parsons).
Do not trade any draft picks for any players. Instead, try to trade players for late round picks because we need all the picks we can get.
The only thing we should be talking about and betting on is who will put the first 50 burger on our defense.
i've never seen so many DEs get handled by WRs & TEs in my life.The worst DEs and LBs I’ve ever seen on a Cowboys team….ever.

They have three first round picks on the OL and no decent tackles.Our OL is over rated when it comes to pass pro. They have been average to bad all year. Against a great DLine you got to see the warts on full display today.
Whats crazy is they very well could throw that late(GB) 1st rounder at yet another OT. Don't rule it out knowing this front office....They have three first round picks on the OL and no decent tackles.
Amazing.
That is a serious misallocation of resources. What team does that?
If we're not careful we will lose homefield advantage in the playoffs.

Honestly, I don't see much difference. Our starters looked just as clueless and gave up big plays and lots of points and yards too.I’ll give the secondary a pass since we were playing 2 outside CBs who should be on the practice squad at best. We were playing 2 backup safeties with an undrafted rookie PSer at FS. After he was injured, we were playing Reddy Steward, our back up slot CB at safety.
We are the easy teamWe are not the Patriots unfortunately.
Step up and shut the talk up. Our new mantra.
Not on the football field apparently, lolWell at this point does ANYthing really matter?
