Game Day Dallas Cowboys at Los Angeles Chargers Postgame Thread

[Mannix]

Please don't get so excited over this victory that you start thinking Dak extension....this would be the perfect time for him to do something stupid. Am I alone thinking this?

 

[TheJynxedOne]

So I guess Dak > Herbert and McCarthy> Moore?

I think Dak ~ Herbert and MM & KM < 0.

 

[EPL0c0]

Dak: 21/30 272yds 1TD; 7carries 40yds 1TD

reminds me of that Jets game: 31/38 255yds 2TDs

Better throw by Dak and he hits Pollard in the endzone.

Gallup dropped a sure TD.

Dak did well enough. This Game should not have been this close

Herbert is a carbon copy of Dak (and Cousins).

Dak outdueled him. Both had several missed opportunities

 

[Floatyworm]

MM got bailed out, awful clock management tonight

A real GM would fire McCarthy tonight

 

[gimmesix]

Too bad this won't cut back the negativism here. I stayed away most of the week after the San Francisco loss because I knew this place would be toxic and frankly, I didn't need it as I was having enough negative thoughts of my own.

Hopefully, some will find a way to enjoy this one. It's tough to win in the NFL, and we did, on the road, against a pretty good team. The Chargers are 2-3, but they lost to us by 3, to Miami by 2 and to the Titans by 3.

Listen i’m not going to doubt the teams effort like last week, BUT the penalties, the horrible play calling, the horrible clock management, the decision to kick at 8 seconds, and on and on. I’m not letting the W get in the way of a change HAS to be made if their is any hope they make a playoff run and a win tonight does not or should not change that

 

[nightrain]

Abysmal. They are going nowhere with that level of productivity. The Chargers were not even concerned with defending the run.

 

[baltcowboy]

The Cockroaches are running back to their holes tonight. The defense is back. Herbert is considered the best young quarterback in the league and we stuffed him. Parsons, Bland, and Tank came to play. Dak gotta complete that pass to Pollard to be worth $50 million a season but overall he played well. Let’s rest up and take out the Rams who are basically the Chargers NFC.

 

[rambo2]

Nobody outside of a few on this forum thinks that.

You just got embarrassed on national tv.

 

[jwitten82]

Not sure why mine couldn't stay it's own thread

 

[zenmastersauce]

Once again.
Shout out to Quinn's group.
Impressive overall performance.
Offense and McCarthy's playcalling?

Well, I mean for whoever listened to the broadcast, Troy made it clearly obvious that McCarthy sucks as a playcaller.

He was pathetic.

I think MM needs a bit more help in that regard. We can't go from top in the league in RZ to damn near last.

 

[conner01]

I love that Parsons gets, what amounts to the game winning sack as Aikman and Buck are talking about how little Parsons had done in the game.

It was his only sack but he had much more impact than stat sheet shows.

 

[Cowboyny]

we need a new offense

Clearly Dak isn’t comfortable in this scheme and is at his best when breaking the pocket.

 

[Miller]

That was typical KM there. Allen is killing us with n little 7-8 yard sideline routes and instead they go to long developing routes and we got the pressure.

 

[Buzzbait]

We win but this offense is garbage. Dak either has no one open or can't find anyone on basically every play.

Win is a win but our scheme and playcalling is so bad.

You want to give the game back to the Chargers? Last time I checked, we WON!

 

[GoldenR]

Hopefully after the by we can come back and run the ball up the middle 20 times for no gain.

 

[KMY_Amber]

Super Bowl baby !!!

We can barely beat the Cowboys of the West. MM is NOT winning a Superbowl as an OC. MAYBE if he brings in someone else to design and call plays, so then maybe he can just focus on clock management and challenges. But with MM as OC and HC, fuhgehdaboutit.

 

[Plankton]

That game was borderline unwatchable thanks to the officials. WAY too much of a presence in this game. If I weren't a Cowboy fan, I would have turned it off.

That being said, good games by Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, Brandin Cooks, Markquese Bell, DaRon Bland, Osa Odighizuwa. Clutch plays late by Parsons and Gilmore.

The interior offensive line was quite poor tonight. Run blocking was poor, and the pass protection wasn't much better. This team needs to find a hammer at running back, because Pollard is not getting it done on inside runs.

Bye week is at a good time. They have a ton to clean up.
