Denver had the ball for over 41 minutes

[Jake]

When the heck was the last time that happened to Dallas? Even in that Rams playoff game, when they rushed for 273 yards, LA's time of possession was less than 37 minutes.

Offense couldn't get anything going and the defense couldn't get off the field. Tough to really point at anything the Cowboys did well today.

Bring on Atlanta.

 

[MysteryIceGuro]

Yeah I don't really know what went wrong there. The miffed punt and interception probably gave them more time. Offense was not efficient at all. Not surprised. They ran and passed well today. We usually dominate TOP but not today. We need to reevaluate against Atlanta because they are not the weak team they were weeks ago.

Once Dak looked off and OL shaky, I thought KM would change the play calling for quick shorter passes and runs to get Dak into a rhythm and help out the OL.

 

[ICP]

Our defense was trash today and well..... So was the offense

 

[JayFord]

thats what happens when you let people run the ball however they feel and throw passes in the flats

and this team needs to lift weights.....tackle the RB and stop him every game its the same they get an extra 2 yards on each run because they cant tackle right

 

[Starforever]

They possibly noticed tendencies.

 

[Irvin88_4life]

Must a bad game from the coaches and players. Move on but to think this game defines the entire season is foolish. Use it as a tool to get better

 

[G2]

It all starts at the line for me. It's the worst I've seen in awhile.

 

[pitt33]

I watched that game for 41 minutes too long.

Tough one indeed

Funny you mention that game. I was thinking the same thing. Both games are those "punched you in the face" games.

That was the only positive I could get out of today. At least we got punched in the face early so the team can learn how to fight through this type of adversity.

Don't want us to be like that team against the Rams and look dazed when it matters most because we don't know how to handle a punch.

On both sides...no pressure no push and no chance

DT's were horrendous today. They lost 3 starting lineman during the game and their Oline still pushed us around all day.

 

[Runwildboys]

Crap, even when they did something good, it turned out bad, like the blocked punt. Let's just hope this was that one really bad game they had to get behind them.

 

[Yobwocs]

first 3 possessions and can't get 4th and 1 or 3rd and 2 on three consecutive attempts. And then the damn unlucky blocked punt call...... those things are why we lost. I know the score was lopsided, but those minor 3 or 4 plays were essentially the game. Seems small finnicky things when you look at it this way.

MM continues to go for it 4th down early in games and give underdogs a chance to get leads and gain momentum. The guy is a moron.

And then in the 4th quarter when he should have gone for it, he didnt. Unreal.

Being abysmal at stopping the run was a big part of it too.

This is what I didn't understand. Dial up the Bucs gameplay at halftime when it was obvious we couldn't block anyone and Dak was off on ever ypass beyond 10 yards. Instead we send everyone on a fly pattern on 3rd and 6. Weird

 

[KJJ]

The first time Denver had the ball we stopped them cold 3 and out for -10 yards. It really appeared we had come to play. They cut through us like swiss cheese after that.

that is insane, wow

 

[RS12]

8 of 15 third down conversions, 190 yards rushing. Not hard to figure out why they lost. Dont let the two garbage time TDs fool you, this was as bad of a blowout loss as they have had in a while.
