Just when I thought we had pulled even with the 49ers I saw a troubling omen

[GimmeTheBall!]

It is almost a sure thing, comrades.
Cowboys seem destined to meet the 49ers in the playoffs --- in their house.
And it has come to pass that when we meet them again, our line might struggle to keep Dak alive if Chase Young and Nick Bosa canna be neutralized.
I now know we can beat the Egirls any day now. And until the blowout, we seemed to be closing the gap with the 49ers.
But, mateys, this Young-Bosa duo will only get better and come to haunt us.

As I depart, I see two pressing questions:
1. How can our O line hope to neutralize Young/Bosa?
2. What shenanigans, cap sleight of hand, what collaborations allowed Young to go to San Francisco? I sense that Roger is afraid to look at some teams.

Cue in the Jim Mora "Playoffs?" meme.

There are several ways OC's can slow down opposing pass rushes.

It's football 101 and has been done since the invention of the game.

McCarthy and staff just need to prepare. No reason to be troubled.

How many games are their left 8? We are not locked in to @ Sam Fran just yet

The Oline has to play better against the niners as does the Dline

 

[PAPPYDOG]

Unless the injury bug hits the Niners they will be raising the Lombardi Trophy in Feb..............

Talk to me when the playoffs arrive. Injuries galore will happen before then. Quit being such a Debbie Downer all the time.

Oh, that hurt.

An effective running game can neutralize a great pass rush.

I could see why you thought we had pulled even with the 9ers.... what with back to back drubbings they've given us in the last 2 meetings.

What’s an effective run game

What’s an effective run game

Was it supposed to be affective?

No I’m referring to we haven’t had one of those this year except last week

The Niners are - by a fairly wide margin - the most formidable team in the NFL...when operating at full strength. However, we saw them drop three games in a row without Deebo Samuel. It's a long season, and we're only halfway through. As much luck as skill is in the recipe for a championship.

The Cowboys are so far from beating the the 49er’s it’s not even funny. If these two meet again there’s nothing between now and then to close the gap.

They are better coached and just more talented across the board.

It won’t be a close game.

I was thinking it was one or the other

 

[conner01]

Just keep doing what we’ve been doing the last few weeks. You can’t dunk and dunk them. Stretch the field

 

[TwistedL0g1k]

If Dallas starts out aggressive and gets the early lead, the game can unfold a different way. Dallas is capable of beating San Fran., but it's bad news if San Fran gets the early lead and leans on their run game.

The Eagles game is a good example of what not to do. Dallas starts the game with a 2 yard run, another 2 yard run, and an incomplete pass. The Eagles then have a long 13 play touchdown drive. They have the lead and the momentum. The pressure is now on Dallas, and Dallas's defense is getting worn down early.

Games unfold like a story. Dallas has to dictate what type of game is going to be played.

Well, Simon, I was thinking tha we had a big off day when they hung 40 on us. But what you conveniently disregard is the 49er recent losses, their injuries and our newfound dominance. And Purdy looks mortal.
So cut me some slack, Jack.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Yes, a running game needs to be effective to better affect the outcome.

 

[ESisback]

It’s how teams matchup. I hope McCarthy comes up with alternatives.
