you dominate the cowboys on the line of scrimmage on both sides...the rest of the cowboys crumble like melting snow.

The Cowboys had a window to win. That window slammed shut against GB last year. The salary cap basically forced them to lose a bunch of players. Its a similar situation to what the Eagles went through before last year and they never really recovered. The 49'ers clock is ticking (2026 their team goes boom).

As long as they don't do anything stupid capwise, things will start to clear up after next year. Hopefully they have some good draft picks and a better coaching staff in place to take advantage of it.

Team needs: OL (maybe just give it some time because its young but its not good), RB, WR2, DE, DT.

Reminder, FA losses: Biadasz, Pollard, Armstrong, Gillmore, Hankins, Fowler, Kearse, Tyron Smith, etc.

To some extent, I think the Cowboys players know that the season is a lost cause and are out there making business decisions (lookin at you Diggs).

The worst part is, every single part of Dak's game looks like an absolute struggle. Awkard running, akward throwing, he makes nothing look easy. Routinely under throws RB's on a simple wideout.....
Dak's biggest struggle is between his ears. The mass in that cavity is just goo.

“This one is on me”
”We will get better”
”This won’t happen again”
”I am real pissed off”

Copy and paste for Mike and Dak
Im really hungry, It starts with me. Better meal prep

How many times does Jerry have to land his helicopter on the practice field for players to get the damn message
Maybe next time he should land on the actual practice field. Just dive bomb in.

We all knew this would be a real battle to even make the playoffs before the season began.
Jerry and Steven had the CAP space and the draft, yet they did probably the worst roster creation since they’ve owned the team.
This isn’t the worst team they’ve had, but considering what they had and what they needed, they didn’t even try. Turpin is our only speed threat. We have 1 top receiver and a bunch of guys, possession types at best. None of the current receivers block. We have no threat at RB even when the blocking comes around. We brought in one veteran LB capable of playing in the middle, and he’s injured. They ignored the flawed DT position.

We will win games because of Dak, Lamb, Ferguson, and coaching. Dont laugh; name me a coach that could compete at a high level with a team that cannot stop the run and cannot muster a running game of their own. Add to that the 4 injuries at DE, the so called #2 receiver, the MLB and his backup, the rookie LT, the veteran LT/LG, and the starting CB.

No one should be surprised. We ran the ball 17 times for 53 yards and passed the ball 44 times. The ratio was even worse when the game mattered. The Lions ran the ball 36 times for 184 yards and only passed when they wanted to, 27 times.

What the Lions have with playaction, playmakers who are real RBs, and an OL that excels in run blocking not only makes it so much easier to play offense and so hard to defend them, but it is the exact opposite of what we have.

The Cowboys have a young, developing and struggling OL, no RB with any speed or real power, no threats to make a big play receiving outside of Lamb, and a serious lack of speed or quickness at receiver. Our offense has Dak and Lamb….period. It doesn’t matter how the two of them play, good or bad, the offense cannot play against a good team that abuses the defense because they are just as limited by being one dimensional. The Lions knew we had to pass every down. They had no respect for our run game even in the first series. That meant our QB and receivers had even less time to run a route or make a play.

Any offense that cannot run the ball is fatally flawed. Any defense that doesn’t have the personnel to stop the run is fatally flawed.
