Give it up for the defense

[Rockport]

Herbert is a stud. I'd never seen him play before other than highlights. He's a good one. Cowboys intercepted him twice and came up with some big, big stops. They weren't perfect, but having played 2 excellent offenses the first 2 weeks and come out 1-1 gives me a lot of hope going forward. And they're only going to get better. Kudos to the defense.

I would not go that far at all. Let's just say it is good that we won, but defense got lucky when they needed to

 

[Teague31]

Still too many dudes running wide open downfield. And the lack of pass rush is glaring
But at least trending up

 

[JJHLH1]

Getting turnovers is huge.

That is something we lacked last season.

 

[cowboyec]

they made the plays when they had to.
good young group.
fun bunch to watch.

 

[Gaede]

Hey, 17 points is good, all things considered.

Surprised by Kearse, a journeyman, and Odiggy showing up

Lots of this.

The difference between this team now is that we have some play makers. Kazee, Diggs, Parsons. And we have a great DC. The defense is still big time hurting. Actually cant believe the job they did. Chargers pretty much gave this game away, but it was well done.

 

[CowboysDrew]

Herbert's got it.

He's gonna be a monster.

Actually already is one.

 

[Clove]

They were pretty dang good. When they suck, I'll say it, when they were good, I'll say that too. Weren't dominant, but pretty good.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

I hate saying this but the Cowboys are right where they should be right now. 1-1. They should have beat the Bucs and made enough mistakes to lose today, so to me it all evens out.

 

[nightrain]

They will be a lot better with DLaw and Gregory. The middle of the field defense is a concern.

 

[ultron]

And don’t forget about the Kearse pick that they called PI on. Terrible call, every single DB in football plays like that every play - if they didn’t QBs could hit quick hitches or quick back shoulder dink and dunks all the way down the field. Dude was fighting for the ball and won the fight

Herbert should be in the NFC East. Thank you WFT and the Giants. It just shows how good Brady is that the Bucs were perfect in the Redzone while the Chargers were shaky.

our defense stepped up big time. We did have a little help from the refs on that grounding call but we won and our defense held LA to under 20 points. That's impressive since we didn't have DLaw, Gregory, and Gallimore.

Well, it was an obvious grounding call.

You haven’t been around long enough to know that good teams make their own luck.

 

[bewp7]

there is a lot of work to do but to be honist i dont think people remember how bad they were last year.

how ever bad u think they were they were actually worse. it was so bad i cant even discribe how bad the cowboys defense was last season.

they are A LOT better that is 100% truth.

they was also against brady and herbert...that is hard for any defense.

 

[Captain-Crash]

Parson made the whole defense better. he put pressure on Herbert most of the game. The other dejected bench warmer lb's stepped up and played better. The secondary feed off the pressure and the defense did well. Parson gets the game ball.
