Is Cowboys 25th ranked offense sustainable

[Doomsday101]

It's a matter of time before we see costly INTs.

Hope not, only 2 plays where picks were thrown by Rush was due to holding on the WR he was throwing the ball too. Had his WR not been held those passes are not ints.

It’s definitely been enough thus far as our #8 ranked defense is only averaging giving up 17 points a game . But that’s been against the 22nd and 23rd ranked offenses in NY and Wash. And Tampa and Cinn are also below average ranked offenses .

How are we going to fare when we go up against more prolific offenses who can score. Hopefully our defense can continue holding our opponents down but you’d think at some point our offense is going to need to improve its output and production at least to average to above average to compliment our top 10 defense if we want to be more competitive against the better teams in the league.

What our offense lacks is explosive splash plays of 20+ yards or more. We’ve been able to move the ball fairly well the last 3 games but it’s mostly through long drives of short gains.

If this team is to be a contender this year, the offense needs to improve its ability to threaten the defense. This offense has become completely dedicated to “take what the defense gives you” which is ok if you can actually do exactly that. The problem is this offense- so far- cannot impose its will on anyone.

Our offense so far this season is mediocre at best. The defense- so far- has been top 5. And that is why we’re 3-1.

Pretty impressive the Egirls overcome 5 turnovers. Their offense is ranked #2 and defense ranked #3 although their competition hasn’t been stellar. They will be a good test and barometer of where we are.

The Rams defense is ranked about middle of the pack and their offense is ranked below ours. I’d expect those rankings to change . They have played 2 playoff teams from last year( Buff and AZ) with another one tonight (SF) and next week (Dak). A tougher opening schedule . We shall see.

The Jaguars had 5 turnovers the eagles had one. They did not have to overcome anything lol

If the defense can do better against the run while maintaining this pressure on the QB then yes. Wentz was only sacked twice but pressured on 41% of hi dropbacks. That's impressive and what we have done to all the QB's the last 3 games. The only reason these teams were in the game is the porous run D at times.

Sorry, I misread that post. Thanks

Not the way the league is built right now. The high powered offenses seem to also play good defense. Need to score points.

Yea,I can’t see us hanging with teams like GB, KC, or Bufff for example. Maybe not Filthy or LA either. Gotta put up points if want to be a serious contender.
