After watching the Jags dominate the Steelers last night ? I began to look back at our first two drives against the Jags and how we moved the ball at will against what appears to be a top notch defense ? Once this offense gels...how good do you think we can be ?

I want to see them put on a Offensive show against a good team...I think we have the personel to do it...It always seems like it's one element not doing their part ,the line and the RB's do good and the QB is off, The WR's are on and the line is sucking...Kool aid, no sugar...Peanut butter, no jelly.....Ham, no burger

It all depends on how Parcells manages the game. Remember the Philly game last year? How good our offense was then? Yeah, just add T.O. to that and I think that's the answer. It's just Parcells doesnt want to get into shootouts, and would rather have low scoring games with a focus on ball control. I mean look at Cincy. Chad and TJ are probably right with Glenn and TO as far as talent, we have a better TE and they have a better RB (though not by much) yet they put up points on the board like nothing. By then end of the year barring any major injuries I see this offense being a top 10 and defense being a top 5.

I think it can be real good. We've already faced two of the hardest defenses we are going to face all year. Titans, Texans, Eagles... they don't have anything close to what we've already seen.

idk man, the Commanders without Shawn Springs really crippled them.

Then again, if the Cowboys (Bledsoe) didn't melt down against the Jaguars, we would be 2-0.

No sarcasm just an honest question. Was Washington one of the toughest defenses we will face?

They should have been but they have injuries and the Offense is letting them down

Not that great.

Havent you heard.. BP is too conservative, Bledsoe is a meltdown waiting to happen.. TO too for a different reason.. Glenn just disappears sometimes. Jones doesnt run like he "used to".. the o-line is mostly just guys named Joe.. etc etc.

If you think about it... if Drew had played average-good in game one we probably end up in the high 20's points-wise(prob 27 or more).... then we play the skins and we score 27(prob could have had more)

I think we could score 27-34 points more times than not.... having the D that we have... when we dont score alot of points we should still be in game..... in the game to win.... just need to change the "play not to lose" philosophy

Thank you and good night.:bow:

Remember when we used to drive the dagger through the heart?.... (instead we play the way we do and then teams hail mary/luck their way back into the game).... we have the team to close the deal.... IMO

We are respected... but not feared..... only thing that will change that is aggressive 60 minutes

Lets get it done!

I think our problems this season have been due more to mistakes than philosophy. We have had two games with almost 100 yards in penalties in each. It's hard to pull away when you are busy killing yourself.

:lombardi: I agree . as the season progresses, the offense will come together, and they'll be tough to handle. we have some weapons on off, if the OFF line continues to come together then look out.

Mr. initials getting more reps in practice would help out, plus IF we can keep the OL healthy, they should develop a good chemistry. Lots of potential for sure.

Like the engines in many motor vehicles, this offense has some built-in revolution limiters.

Most folks point to Parcells as the revolution limiter. But with Bledsoe's weaknesses and his need for near flawless protection, and the Cowboys' defense, it makes some sense to keep this offense from getting too "rev happy."

This offense can be efficient, productive, and occasionally explosive. They can be more than good enough, given the potential of the Cowboys' defense.

It is easy for us to focus so much on the Cowboys that we lose sight of just how good some other teams are. There are NFL offenses that have the potential to be far more dynamic - (Colts, Bengals, perhaps the Falcons). And the Giants and Eagles have as much potential on offense as the Cowboys and probably more.

Efficient, productive, and occasionally explosive - that's the goal for the Cowboys offense.
