Did we ever find out what was going on with CeeDee Lamb to start the game?

[America's Cowboy]

Then what was Dak's excuse for the way he played? ......... Again

Listen to Kurt Warner and Michael Irvin. They break down certain plays well.

 

[Gambit]

More like he wasn't being thrown to when he was open.

Dropping balls tends to lead QBs to look at others

 

[Chasing6]

guy just set the single season Cowboys WR record catching passes from a 1 read stiff and this is how you do him?

There is literally no length you won't go to, to prop Dak up. C'mon man.

If the defensive game plan is to double CD, then we can't force the ball to him. I understand he wants to get involved in the game early. Mike has to have designed plays to get him the ball.

The pick 6 looked like Dak was forcing it to him. CD had like 9 catches on 18 targets. If you look at the other receivers they all had a high completion percentage.

Gallup 6 for 6
Ferguson 10 for 12
Cooks 6 for 8

Defense game plan. Take CD out of the game and watch him and Dallas have a melt down.

Check Mate.

Just my 2 cents but. I think and seemed like MM wanted to use the first drive to try to establish the run. Was obvious when he was running against stacked boxes.

Lamb watched packers run all over us and knew we were gonna be in a shootout. They had a dinged up CB like we did. I think Lamb wanted to be motioned to get his one on one match up and take the deep early shot to stay in the game. MM wanted to stay with trying to run.

Then packers used safeties to confuse Dak (worked) to protect there secondary and Dak throws a int right into the defenses teeth.

You have to let big players make big plays. We stayed with our schemes until second half when packers went more prevent. There total defense is ranked below average and MM could have read the room and not thrown against 4 man fronts or ran against stacked boxes. Gave Dak a chance to audible or maybe he did. But I think Lamb saw something and they did not want to change anything.

We all knew after the first quarter we were not going to stay with our Defensive game plan and stop them. We gave them 14 points in the first half. Our Defense got blown out.

They showed McCarthy going over to him during the game which was odd to me since I've not seen Mike do that.

At that moment on the field, CD realized Dak is a fraud,I have no doubt it was CD who said dak panics.

 

[glimmerman]

I think Lamb wanted to go deep. Obviously was not going to stop them. They had a CB that was questionable going into the game..

Slater clarified that it was definitely not CD as she didn't talk to him. For whatever that's worth. Obviously, others are thinking it in that locker room.

Thanks for the clarification diz.

But, but, but. he's an EVERY day #1 who can be counted on every game....that's what people tell me. Nothing wrong with being a 1 1/2

LOL at thinking he's not competitive.

I swear to God, our fanbase deserves all the mocking they get.

 

[SlammedZero]

Wherever you want to pin the blame, the fact is the body language was off for both players. Not a good look coming into a playoff game (or any game for that matter). It's in those moments you realize the team is going to rollover and lose the game. Is that on coaching or the players? I don't know, but it's inexcusable for last Saturday. The biggest game of the season up to that point and they are moping around.

 

[Sydla]

Which you didn't watch. Lamb dropped a very well placed ball and it was the 3rd player Dak looked at. That's one example.

Woah.

Are you saying that on that 3rd down play near midfield on our opening drive, that pass to Lamb over the middle was well placed?

Hahahahaha.

 

[big dog cowboy]

He's just not very competitive when things are difficult.

I think a lot of that comes from Amari - that stuff is contageous.

Amari??? That is some serious dot connecting right there.

 

[nate dizzle]

But, but, but. he's an EVERY day #1 who can be counted on every game....that's what people tell me. Nothing wrong with being a 1 1/2

So he's better than a number 1? What are you saying here.

 

[zrinkill]

Listen to Kurt Warner and Michael Irvin. They break down certain plays well.

Are they the ones who said Lamb was out partying the night before the game?

 

[America's Cowboy]

Are they the ones who said Lamb was out partying the night before the game?

I don't believe so. They just broke down what they saw on tape.

 

[Mac_MaloneV1]

Amari??? That is some serious dot connecting right there.

Just a thought, who knows.

But he was a big pouter too and, intentional or not, that influence can matter.

 

[jwitten82]

It's funny, when Warner has criticism for Dak for one of the games this season, @America's Cowboy all of a sudden came up with an excuse as to why he was wrong lol

 

[zrinkill]

I don't believe so.

Good ........ I would hate to know they went that far to defend Dak

 

[DallasEast]

Probably was drunk/hungover from the partying the night before.

wow

Michael Irvin said CeeDee absolutely can not and should not have acted that way towards Dak and McCarthy. Totally set the wrong example early to the rest of the team. Irvin said very early in his career, Norv Turner constantly reminded him of that. Never display angst against Troy for any reason, especially live on the field during a key game for the rest of the team to see. That destroys the team's trust and spirit.
