Everyone MUST credit Wade. Everyone.

[Boyzmamacita]

The Raiders are one of the worst offensive teams in football.

Settle down.

And no one has ever questioned his ability as a DC. They question his ability as a head coach. And we're really going to see how he does in the next five weeks.

The Cowboys played a great game today on both sides of the ball, and any NFL game you win is a great thing, but I agree that we need to remember it was the Raiders. The Raiders are not a good team. If we can play this way over the next 5 games, then this team has arrived.

I agree that the Raiders suck, but coming into this game, you would think they were world beaters the way so many posters here were drooling all over them. Now that the Cowboys have beaten them easily (should've been worse), I'm reading a lot of "it's just the Raiders." Their defense came to play, but we still had close to 500 yards of offense. You gotta give the Cowboys, and yes Wade, credit.

30-13 is not a fluke.

Neither is zero career playoff wins.

With a QB in his second game

They played the Raiders.

Bingo.

1) This defense immediately removes what teams like to do best

I agree that the defense has been impressive the last few weeks, but this is wrong IMO. They gave up like 90 yards rushing in the first half to the raiders of all teams.

And this...

30-13 is nothing to scoff at. You tell me who's gonna walk in here and do a better job than Wade right now. You guys are ridiculous to want to oust someone that clearly has his team playing well.

Save it til the end of the season at least. It's beyond idiotic to even consider this right now.

Anyone catch Simms call Wade, "the defensive coordinator" as if he wasn't also the head coach?

I was one that was cautioning people to not overlook the game because of the Raiders defense.

Not their offense.

Their defense is very good though. I thought if they kept our offense to around 10 points that anything could happen and they might win.

No way they beat us when we score 24 though.

 

[theogt]

Tell the Eagles and the Bengals it's "just the Raiders."

But even that is irrelevant. This isn't about the defense in just this one game. This is about this defense improving every single week to a point where they're now one of the top defenses in the league.

 

[Aikbach]

Wade is good defensive coordinator no question but his teams are often passionless and run vanilla offenses at odd times.

 

[Nexx]

now if he could be just the D coordinator instead of head coach, i'd love wade.

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

I'll wait and see how they do over the next 5 games before I give him any credit

I understand your point but have to admit that the constant "wait until December" line is tiring in that when we lose before December, Wade sucks, when we win before December, it's wait until December. Wade cannot win.

 

[Big D]

Neither is zero career playoff wins.

He will win one this year.

I'll wait and see how they do over the next 5 games before I give him any credit

If we go 4-1 / 5-0 in that span will wade get any credit for it? What if we go 1-4? I'm sure he'll get all of the credit for that.

Bottom line is we're 8-3 going into December with the right mentality. We're not eating a bunch of cheese like previous years when everyone was on the jock predicting the superbowl. Wade has got this team leading the div and hungry for improvement. You gotta love that.

 

[Aliencowboy]

There is not enough of a sense of urgency or spirit in this team.
The team lacks discipline and the ability to execute consistently which is a reflection of the headcoach IMO. The team should be winning a game like today 38-7.

I can't tell if this was a joke.

The pic is from that site.

I am not advocating to fire him now.
