When your 29th in the league against the rush I’m guessing your pass defense ranking might be pretty good, why throw when you don’t have to?

So is this why our pass defenses so good too?

I'm not worried about the egirls. We demolished the Bears today and they get some lucky plays to beat the lowly Steelers. The division is ours, just sit back and enjoy the ride.

Lucky plays? This is why our fan base is laughed at … they destroyed the Steelers and their starters were out by the fourth quarter. Stop acting like when we beat bad teams we are awesome but when other teams do it they are lucky.

We're 6-2. Eagles are 7-0. The division comes down to Week 16 in Arlington.

That first game gonna be looming large, and that game essentially forces us to beat them in Week 16 to win the division.

Do you think we beat the Eagles with Dak in that first game? I think.... really maybe. Dak doesn't throw those INTs.

If he changes into a at least average Qb we might have a chance.

Nice try, I’m guessing your pass defense ranking has to do with your pass rush and the fact that most of your games have been close and low scoring particularly when Dak was out.

Hypothetical…who knows? I will say today’s Dak and playcalling gives us a shot. Philly’s a lot better than the Bears. He could get that deer in the headlights look.

We have a better chance of beating Philly with Dak but nothing I saw today makes me feel confident we’re going to win the division. We finally got the offense on track and the defense practically falls apart. We’re just lucky we didn’t play a real good team today. We still look like a one and done playoff team against a real good opponent. I still don’t think we could beat San Francisco. Any team that can run the ball is going to be a problem for us.

Yes.

Next question.

Yep we can beat them, but I doubt anyone else on their schedule can. We are wild-card bound.

Were but 29th against the run
And we were right in the eagles game till the end with a backup quarterback and turning the ball over 3 times is why we lost…

and in todays game Chicago stuck to the run even though almost all teams would have thrown the ball…Chicago just padded their run stats. They chewed up the clock for Dallas in the 4th quarter…very weird.

It depends.

If it was Dak's 6th game of the year because he wasn't injured, yes, I think the Cowboys win vs the Eagles.

But coming off the injury, I don't think Dak makes a huge impact on the Eagles game.

Dak had to complete "his preseason" before he was "Eagles game ready".

No. Nothing changes. They beat us with a bad QB the first time. They'd do the same now.

We have to win it another way. Dak Prescott isn't going to do it for you.
And nothing would make you happier. Lame aaaaaah

It's obvious you haven't watched any Bears game. They have a legit secondary and a pass defense. And their overall defense is much better than the Steelers defense. Try again.

You’re right, I haven’t watched a Bears game this year, who would other than a Bears fan? Ok you win, Dak was elite today.

I never said he was. I was just pointing out neither is Hurts just because he had a good game against a bad Steeler's defense.
