I think the team has been bored since they clinched the playoffs

I said this the other day. This didn’t look like the same team we’ve seen for the past month. The D looked fast and all over the place. Moore called plays we haven’t seen all season. Mukuamu? Where has that been DQ?! Featuring Tony Pollard?!

They have been bored and holding back.

Certainly looked that way against the deadskins.
Looked unmotivated

they havent been bored theyve been beat up and injured

and LVE is a HUGE part of the defense he lines people up correctly and coordinates the defense on the field without him people are out of alignment

also having hankins back works as well

No. They weren't bored when they choked away the first seed.

They beat a gawd awful team tonight that was last in the NFL in big plays, can't score, had a losing record, and was the only team in the playoffs with a negative point differential.

That's good to see, but didn't mean much. Next week is when we find out what they really are.

I get all that. And LVE played amazing! But we’ve seen stuff we haven’t seen all season. Muka….Pollard featured when Zeke is fine. Parsons definitely look like he’s held back. He was 2021 fast tonight

Didn’t take long for the true colors of the sad sacks to show

The same team that beat us 19-3 and knocked Dak out.

It was obvious last week they didn't want to play the game.

Today, they proved it.

I think they were set up to fail against Washington to get a certain media narrative.

Well stated and so true. SF is a juggernaut and is the best team they have faced thus far. Will take a smart game with no boneheaded mistakes to have a chance.

Hankins got a sack and caused pressure up the middle all night when he was in. Lve did his thing too!

There's a reason Tampa Bay had a losing record this year, they suck! I think the Cowboys needed this warm-up game to get their heads right and a little confidence going, especially dak.
