It looks like the Pre-Dak & Zeke Cowboys are back

That's not much of an argument. Sure it helped the Rams get a score, but it did not shift momentum. A shift in momentum isn't followed up by the team that supposedly lost momentum driving down the field for a TD.

Could have easily been 31-6 or 31-16 at half without that fumble...

That fumble changed the way the rest of the game was played.

That's just speculation. It also could have been 17-20 as well.

Trend....our coaches hadn't poisoned them until this past offseason.

Different players but same results. What's the constant? JG and Jerry. The puppet and the puppet master.

I'm waiting 3 more games before I freak out.....we've got some young talent.

Maybe we will peak in the second half.

...this game was a little weird...but I really don't think it's time to panic...the Boys had the lead. the "D" just stopped the Rams "O'" again...The Boys were ready to get the ball back and hopefully score again....then Switzer fumbled the ball near the Dallas end zone...the Rams took over....and there it goes....anyway
I consider it a fluke that changed the momentum of the game....I really do believe that Dallas will learn from it and improve...the "O" scored 30 points also,
and once the "D" jells........>

This board freaks out with every loss. I am confident that we win that game with Sean Lee. Heath is bad and I have said that since Wilcox and Church were let go so safety has me concerned. As a whole Goff did not eat us up, it was the run game with Gurley and Austin.

Dak needs to do better in the pocket and in high percentage passing like last year converting 3rd downs and the Oline has to do better. Fact of the matter is that it is better to peak later in the season than early so hopefully we can build and get healthy and learn from some mistakes here.

Well its not speculation that the 7 points Switzer gave up is the difference in the scoreboard!!!!

But as you just said, it changes the entire game (to what, we don't know). There is no doubt it had an impact, but it did not create some dramatic shift in momentum. The Boys went down and scored immediately after and still had control of the game.

The entire year so far I just haven't seen the players play with that same intensity and passion they showed last year.

You look at them on the sidelines and it looks like they are all just going through the motions and would rather be somewhere else.

Dak has become a robot player, Zeke has looked overweight, Dez is playing the worst football I've ever seen him play, and our defense can't get a stop.

The only bright spot I would say this year has been Demarcus Lawrence.

Yesterday, the Cowboys thought that the game ended at halftime and that is just so unlike us.

That game yesterday I feel like I've seen it so many times with this team in the past.. Finding a way to lose and doing it at home.

Hopefully playing Green Bay will wake them up. They will be told all week how bad they are and for some reason, we are a better team under these circumstances.
I agree that the passion seems to be gone from last year. After watching the intensity that the Eagles played with yesterday, It became even more obvious.
