Everything Hinges On Lights Out Defensive Play

[America's Cowboy]

The OP...

 

[ak47kaehu]

The defense has played lights out 4 of 6 games this season.

The 2 they didn't we lost easily.

This offense is ugly, boring, and not pulling their weight.

You're not wrong!

Not really, but I get your troll-ness.

Actually this was NOT that game. We're like sharks preying off defensive disruption, sacks, turnovers, INT's, defensive TD's. The D played well but unlike our other three wins, the offense had to EARN it. Dak to his credit, had to buy time vs a ravenous pass rush and make plays. The offense had to drive the length of the field without the aid of turnovers or playing "free" with a nice lead. The clock management at the end of the first and the 4th and 1 "tush push" attempt were terrible.

Agree. This wasn’t lights out. LOL

And we actually saw some improvement on the offense.

Good time to have a bye, regroup and adjust as needed.

This is a throw away post to "See I was here after a Loss"

Dak Haters are worthless

Aaron Donald say hello.
Make McCarthy says time out, no nevermind!

Yep, all true.
And I'm as anti Dak as they come.

But McCarthy's offense is trash as well.
They BOTH suck at their jobs.

Herbert over throwing guys all game I guess.

1 qb played against a top 5 defense. The other against bottom 5. Yet they both struggled equally.

Last night win was in large part because of our qb and wr1 there wasn’t an equal struggle

Swing and miss

Again. One played against the worst pass D in the league (they jumped up a few notches after last night). The other against the 4th best pass defense.

Hilarious watching them trying to prop this meh performance against the worst pass D in the league up as evidence that the other 95% were wrong.

I live in reality. You only see it as negativity because you don't want to believe it.

Prescott 21/30 272 yards 1td, 7 rushes for 40 yds and a td. Qb PR 109.3

Herbert 22/37 227 yards 2 td 1 game ending int Qb PR 84.

Not very equal.

 

[Birch_Wood]

Some one said our defense did a good job of containing the run 2.3 yards per rush compared to our 3.7. But we still had enough pressure on Herbert to make him uncomfortable.

Not very equal.

Consider the defenses they each faced. Very equal.

Good points. I thought Rush could have led us to 3-2 but he would not have won this game. Dak made plays that only a top level quarterback could make.
