Very misleading article. Just click bait.
So much goes into points ie offensive turnovers, top, offense consistency keeping their defense exhausted, special teams and etc.
But yes in general giving up 30 points is normally going to register as a loss
and there's also so much to go into it that SURE,
maybe you forget to say the lack of a run game 3YPC average or worse in all those losses to SF/2023 GB , a lack of a physical offensive line ,
you know that Troy and Roger had romo /Prescott hadn't had anything even remotely close to those OL/TD /es22 playoff productions??
then you can add in defense later,
but the offense , yes early turnovers..hmm game killas, NOPE!!
I've seen it happen in many games I mean we could go back to couple years back didn't Trevor Lawrence have 4 interceptions in a game and they won a playoff game?? didn't the Buffalo Bills Allen have three turnovers another one he kicked out of bounds or he would had four turnovers and they won that game? YUP seem to remember a guy named Matthew staver couldn't win anything Detroit comes over with a loaded team and somehow still leaves the league in interceptions and has two in the Super bowl.. Let me ask and it's rhetorical did they win that game I'd say yeah they did their defense just stepped it up I didn't make excuses they didn't say I'm tired Oh my God the TOP it hurts so bad we're gonna lose we're just going to blame it on the quarterbacks...
I mean the offense last year, I mean you want something that's a parallel? This is why this is a team game
the lions and the 49ers had a similar game the first half the 49ers were just terrible on offense, they couldn't get anything going as a team, they were down at the same score I believe, or at least the gap the deficit was the same, and somehow after halftime their team didn't use an excuse and blame the offense or QB, so somehow the 49ers managed to come back and yet the Cowboys defense gave up three straight touchdowns to start the second-half and you're making excuses for them?!!!???
which by the way the time of possession goes both ways and before those interceptions happen what happened? oh that's right, the opening possession against our defense look like practice they looked like they were unprepared it was so easy that I swear to God I was watching a preseason game where one team played their starters and the other team played their backups that is the tone setting drive that showed you the defense wasn't exhausted and tired when they started the game and started the half terribly?
The time of possession works both directions when the defense like it did a couple years back against San Francisco where allegedly played well enough to hold them to an 8-point game or whatever it was,
no look at the first half of that game Debo Samuels ran up and down the field for like 10 yards per carry in the first half they held on to the ball so long the Cowboys offense never had a chance to get going yeah they made mistakes but then you add in a defense dropping an interception Yep Trayvon diggs Mr. interception himself and then in the same game doesn't break up a big pass that was being bobbled to kittles up the middle these are the type of things that get you beat when you have an opportunity to make a Brock Purdy Or a garoppolo just paid for making a mistake and you don't you lose games like that yeah even when it's not 30 points the defense has had these types of possessions where they've let teams have long arduous runs down the field just ate up the clock that happened in the 2018 Rams game, you blame Prescott for that I don't even remember what it was 278 yards on the ground?
Let's stop making excuses for the entire team and the coaching staff they've been getting their butts kicked from top to bottom and every single playoff loss but if you want to blame something you would go back to defense is more to blame than anyone look at last year's losses yeah there's plenty of blame to go around and then that Seattle win the defense was horrible against the better teams and yet the label goes to the quarterback can't beat the better teams...
