Go ahead and jump off the bridge

The Cowboys did not play well at all today. Too many penalties. Too many lost assignments on defense. Poor execution. Poor OL play.

But this is just one game. Yeah we sucked. But those of you who are perpetually ready to jump off the bridge (figuratively of course) just go ahead and jump. Lol

We played out of our minds the first two weeks. Everything went right. This week everything went wrong, and absent some piss poor officiating we probably win this game too.

The overreaction here is excessive.

You guys think Dak hangs out here after the game?

I’m not someone who is ready to perpetually jump off a bridge and all our goals are still in front of us but I disagree that this is just “everything went wrong”. That insinuates it was just bad luck. No, the team look unprepared and made mistakes all day long.

Losses like these are why week in and week out this team has to continue to earn the fans trust and also substantiates why outsiders shouldn’t take us seriously until we prove it.

Agreed, with the only addition I would make is run blocking looked good, pass blocking up and down.

Cowboys red zone offense has been top 10 last 2 years, fix that and despite all the sloppy football we probably win.

LOL at thinking the officiating was the reason we couldn't squeeze out a win.

Many of those penalties were completely justified.

Not an overreaction, but this is the cowboys team we expected against the Jets that finally reared its ugly head. They won two games big and come in leisurely and sloppy against a team with it's backup QB and get spanked in the run game and beat up and out-physicaled to a loss... just like when Denver and the 49ers did it

Good grief. Win 2 games in Sept....the fans in here start making SuperBowl plans. Lose 1 and it's "fire this guy or that guy"

You know why Andy Reid's teams are always good, even b4 Mahomes? He never overreact. He is like the captain of one of those giant ships....where you don't go yanking the wheel this way or that way and spazzing out from one mo.ent to the next, good or bad....you make small adjustments and keep it steady from 1 obstacle to the next.

Calm heads...patience... evaluate things over time, not forming absolute opinions from 1 week to the next.

There's 32 teams trying to win the SuperBowl. With luck, injuries, and just the sheer number of teams factored in, the BEST team maybe has a 20% (1 in 5) chance of winning it in any given year. We don't have a Mahomes....so like SF or Philly maybe we had a 1 in 8 chance of winning a SB when you woke up this morning. That still holds true now. Freaking relax. This is the most manic depressive fan base ever. 17 games.

:facepalm: I could respect this up until complaining about the officiating. I can't respect that at all.

Sure. It's the officiating. That's gotta be it.

Miami is looking at putting 80 up on this defense and you’re telling me not to “overreact” after losing to quite possibly the worst team in the league is hilarious. Look at our upcoming schedule and tell me not to overreact. What a joke.

Superbowls are not won in September. This game will be a distant memory come December.

The loss doesn't bother me.

The interception wasn't great, but it doesn't bother me long-term.

The 6.2 y/a and the complete lack of trust in the quarterback from the coaching staff makes me wonder what the heck we're trying to do.

The complete lack of an intermediate/deep passing game is going to be a problem. It’s like they have forgotten how to throw the ball more than 10 yards. All of the routes are very shallow.
