DCs need to play smarter football

all 4 phases,

I keep hearing well the offense cant play perfect so its all on the defense.. MEH facts are thats not true

I hope a lot of fans hanging this entire issue on poor defense which it has been bad i get it but truly there far too many other issues that have caused the 2-3 record and the fact we are leading in points..

lets start with 11 that eleven TURNOVERS BY THE OFFENSE , ONLY OTHER TEAM WITH THAT MANY MISTAKES IS PHILLY..OTHERS HAVE 9 BUT LETS LOOK AT TEAMS WITH LESS.

Aaron rogers led Packers have zero, let that sink in, they say we cant expect perfect while that true 0 or 11 i imagine somewhere in the middle would be nice bet we are 3-2 with say 5/6 4-1 with under 4..oits that simple.

Titans are undefeated well their offense has only 3 total turnovers this year yup thats not perfect but hey a lot less on an offense thats ball control , plays good defense, maybe the defense is helped out by limiting TOs and running the ball and leads to owning TOP.

lets go to team with a near equally as bad defense,

Seatle giving up 27 points game and far more Yards then we are(they are dead last in yards given up) yet they are 5-0 how is that they arent plays good defense and not perfect offense , well they only have 4 that FOUR total Turnovers..We are at 11 TOs and 32ppg you think those 7 more TOs led to the points differential between us? It DOES..27 to 32 not far jump to assume those 7 extra TOs caused those 5 points..

see a pattern here,

add to it bonehead play calls by the ST, you know the early onslaught of going for fakes given this defense short field., a Muff KR by the ST leads to a Safety, a 4th and 16 punt gets called back do to penalty and the giants kick a FG that 3 points

how about not going for a FG to tie the rams game? coaching decsions , bad one IMO..

so lets start getting this team to lay smarter on offense, ST and from coaching aspect and im betting that defense maybe below avg but not historically bad, they were dealt bad hand , facts are above..

anyone want more proof

Packers Tampa bay game 14-10

dang can you believe the packers defense gave up two quick tds in 20mns?

wait lets go back Rogers pick 6 and another int brought to 1st and goal at the 5 for another TD

this on the defense that they are now down 14-10 or technically they havent give up a point in the real world, the offense spotted TB 14 points off two snaps..

so really its 10-0 packers if the offense doesnt create the points for TB

ironic isnt it?

looks to me my narrative is correct,

90 points came of Turnovers let that sink in... Tos and penalty's have made the defense look far worse then it is..period end of story they hand the game to the opponent in the first qtr. of nearly every game, seriously 14-17 PAG given to the opponent..

thats the issue..end of story

our defense may be bad but they aren't nearly as bad as the PPG make it appear..its not just points its momentum more possessions to cover for the defense and the Cork popped off the turnover genie bottle..

the entire premise to blame the defense as our issue when 84 of the points have come off turnovers, tons of short fields and extra possessions defensed its the primary issue..

I’m sure this team knows that.

problem is, do they care enough to do that?

Zeke fumbles every game. We go for 3 while down a significant amount of points every game. Pollard or ST makes a mistake every game. We get stupid penalties every game. It’s just the Cowboys lifestyle at this point and it’s not gonna stop til we get a REAL coach in here. One that disciplines his players.

See how Shanahan benched Jimmy G the other day against Miami? Zeke was playing that bad, but he was still out there.
