Last night the team was without its 3 best defensive players in Parsons, DLaw and Bland. Next man up right? Well, Kneeland goes down in the first half. Guyton goes down. In comes Linval Joesph making big play. Wheat made a few big plays. Bass comes in and the offensive line and plays great, except for the penalty.

Not only this but the team as a whole did not give up led by 1 Dakota Prescott. When your QB show that kind of fire after 3 turnovers, his team mates will respond and they did.

So give some credit to MM and the FO for the depth they have and how they played.

More like Being short Sam williams, Carson, Dlaw, Parsons, bland, Kneeland, Guyton, Cooks, Martin for 5 snaps using Hoffman and Bass, so yes they should deserve some credit, most team was garbage, and we had no depth most picked us to lose last night,....

we still haven't seen Cook play and Zeke looks hurt so maybe Rico takes the lead but Cook gets us a better #2 RB...

Maybe Rico takes the lead? 2 key tds in the last 2 road wins. Just give Luepke more carries. His first downs made per touch is off the chart.

Yes they do, It wasnt pretty, but winning is better, you play whats before you.

A win is a win is a win.

Zeke shouldn’t have been on the field last night. Is he hurt or just cooked?

no if you're watching the pregame the delay he looked to be having a hard time putting on his pads grimaced a lot like he has shoulder injury. Maybe rotator cuff or something, explains his lack of snaps.. BUT IMO if thats the case sit him for the next 3 games and let him heal up.. give Cook his shot..Hunter has taken EE role now..we can afford to sit him

Let's credit the Steelers too. If it wasn't for them we wouldn't have gotten the W.

This is what I have been saying for years now.

I would never sign "#1" wide receivers or running backs to large contracts.

Yes, they can make big plays, but I would rather throw numbers at the positions rather than put all of the salary cap into one player for each.

I would rather have 4 B-level receivers than 1 A-level receiver and 3 C-level receivers.

Teams play better schemes when they don't have to feature or highlight "elite" players.

It gives other players a chance to step up and make plays.

Most importantly, I would want to be able to replace injured players or poorly performing players with "next man up" and not only have someone just as good the guy they are replacing but maybe one that plays even better.

Zeke hasn’t done anything all year while healthy. He’s hurting Dowdle getting into a rhythm.

I’ve seen it all now. A Zoner giving kudo’s to the other team and not the Cowboys for a win. Unbelievable.

i'm not supporting him i'm just trying to tell you what i know , and also believe just like brandon cooks has been going on longer than you think.I beleve both been inured and just now being addressed. I i remember a play with Brandin cooks in training camp came up limping. I believe that when he got hurt, it got worse, he got surgery than got an infection. But zeke for all we know got hurt game 1 and hid it....

now it's up to the coaches to play the healthier younger versions in Tolbert and Hunter plus add cook at some time.. move BC to #3, let him thrive against a weaker CB?DB

They deserve nothing - MM had another stupid challenge and sucks at clock management- thankfully the players stepped up and played together.

This FO and moron of a head coach suck

I'll give the coaching staff more credit for the adjustments we've seen over the last couple of weeks, I'm not ready to say this front office has done a good job though, specifically ownership. I'll be happy to change my tune and eat some crow if they show they can hang with and beat a team like Detroit this week.

There is certainly improvement within this team and we should be happy with the recent wins, but if there is a talent gap like I think there is itll show up more over this next stretch of games.
