If we throw 40 times, we lose

[acr731]

What if they throw the ball 60 times?

 

[Captain-Crash]

What if they throw the ball 60 times?

um, we blame the refs, offensive line, Moore, the wr's and the running back, and Rush for being 4-1.

 

[CATCH17]

Trying to win with Mr. 40 millions arm is a recipe for failure.

 

[lukin2006]

Up by 14 against Green Bay and we ended up throwing 46 times…smh and both our backs were averaging over 6 ypc.

 

[Pass2Run]

This game is about the offensive line. The Viking secondary is beat up.

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

Just hope we don’t get down early. If we have to rely on Dak to pass us to a victory this is going to be a guaranteed L

 

[noshame]

Come on
Dak believes in his arm

 

[kskboys]

Sooooooooooooooooooooooo, here we are.

How many times did we throw the ball? 25ish?

Yup.

 

[America's Cowboy]

I'm taking 40 and over. I trust my arm has to show everybody it's not him. Mark this down as an L.

Ready for some crow?

 

[America's Cowboy]

Sooooooooooooooooooooooo, here we are.

How many times did we throw the ball? 25ish?

Yup.

True, but Dak has led the team to wins when having to throw 40+ times before.

 

[Captain-Crash]

Naw, Moore finally told Dak to run the ball and quit changing the plays. Look how that worked out and the defense played lights out. Team win

 

[CT Dal Fan]

The Cowboys just had the biggest road win in franchise history and over half the threads here are people still trying to dump on Dak.

I can hear the crickets chirping and it's hilarious.

Did you watch the game? Because I saw Dak audible out of a lot of plays today. Sorry the Cowboys won and Dak played well, but it happens.

 

[cnuball21]

I’d argue most teams lose when they have to throw it 40+ times.

Outside of Mahomes it’s just a losing formula in the NFL.

This. They need to continue applying the "Rush" offense to Dak. Winning recipe.

 

[shabazz]

30 passes today and 40 rushes by the Cowboys today. It worked out beautifully but I wouldn’t have been too surprised to see more passing since the Vikings pass defense was ranked 27th.

Good run blocking, good pass protection, no dropped passes to speak of , 4/4 kicking, and the defense held the previously 8-1 Vikings to 183 yards of total offense. Just waiting to see consistency but this is a good game to build off of

 

[nightrain]

Chances are.

Seems like they should pay closer attention to that stat.

 

[Diehardblues]

Chances are.

And a big part of that is starting Pollard. He hits the holes faster. , more explosive , and big play game changer.

Dak was 22 of 25 for 276 passing yards, 2 TDs (should have been 3 had Schultz caught that perfectedly thrown ball in the endzone) and a 139.3 passer rating. Dak easily could have thrown 40+ times, but that would have increased his passing numbers above 400 passing yards, 4+ TDs and a win...which would have upset you Dak haters.

 

[Diehardblues]

We’re just a much more effective team offensively when we get off to quick starts . And with the lead it sets our defense up as well .
