It now has been 27 games since the Cowboys last scored (a TOUCHDOWN) on defense. That would be the interception by Rolando McClain off of Tanneyhill the Sunday before Thanksgiving. Note that there was a safety scored by the Cowboys in that meaningless final game in 2015 against the Commanders.

It has also been 35 games since the Special Teams scored (a TOUCHDOWN). Kyle Wilber picked up a blocked punt in Philadelphia. Yes, the same game where Romo broke his collar bone for the second time.

I know that Romo is not everyone's favorite QB, but at least on occasion he had some help.

Come on defense and special teams, give Dak, Zeke, and everyone else some help.

If Brown adjusts and makes that interception against the Rams, there a good chance that's a pick 6

Sooo... Can we get rid of cussing-into-the-wind Bisaccia now?
This guy has been riding upon his loud mouth and rep from the Chargers for far too long.


Edit: He's the Jerome Henderson of ST coaches.

This teams to play more consistent like they did in 2016. Maybe this team has made to many changes this year.

Brown should have had a TD in the Arizona game. Poor reversal by the refs.

I sure would like to see a dominant Cowboys defense before my time is up.


They were fantastic to watch man.

Excellent defenses can be every bit as exciting as great offenses.

Nothing gets me out of my seat faster than a pocket collapsing on a teams QB, or a pass tipped up in the air grabbed by a DL or LB who then rumbles down field, or when someone strips a running back and a DB takes it back for six!

So awesome.

Man, Lewis is quickly becoming the gem of our draft. You just know his ceiling is going to be higher than we’ve had in the dB backfield in a long time.

You would think Bisaccia is on the hot seat now.

People can hate on Switzer after his fumble, but he's our best shot for a ST TD unless we feel like putting Dez back there.

Get some of these younger guys more gametime in the secondary and we'll have somebody take one back. Brown got robbed too.

I still believe the greatest secondary Dallas had was from the 1971 Super Bowl VI team. They had Hall of Fame corners in Renfro and Adderley (who came over from Lombardi's Packers) along with a young Cliff Harris and Cornell Green (both of who should be in the Hall of Fame).

I still believe the best pass rush came from the 1977 Super Bowl XII team. Led by Hall of Famer Randy White (the REAL Manster), Should be Hall of Famers Ed "Too Tall" Jones, and (the late) Harvey Martin RIP. Along with Jethro Pugh (RIP), Larry Cole, and Bill Gregory provided the best constant pressure this franchise has ever seen.

If the Cowboy units of today can be anywhere close to these units, this team will be winning Super Bowls.

Unfortunately, there is still a long ways to go.
