Having their best interior lineman against the run and their starting MLB both out was probably a negative factor.

When you run a 2-LB defense and one of the LB's weighs 205 LBS.........seriously, how do you defend the run with one LB and 6 DB's? That is what the Cowboys had out there.

So glad you hear you enjoyed the Cowboys rushing defense in the game.
Did someone fart on the bench also? Better micro manage that also....

Get ahead offensively without penalties and make them adapt to the Cowboys. The smaller linebacker mix works a ton better. Get two TD's and things flip around a ton. If you are going to insultive attitude concerning game conditions flipping, naw, that's on YOU. Why not just go on back into the blame Jerry routine now? Go ahead...

Ninety (90) minutes before the Buffalo game, I stated that we would have a terrible day passing and lose. Death, taxes, and the following.....when we are (take your pick) on the road, playing an above average team with a rabid crowd, or in bad weather....we struggle throwing the ball. We see it every time any of these scenarios are present....WR's are stuck at the line of scrimmage, they get ZERO separation and cannot get open, routes are all run within 6-7 yards of the line of scrimmage. Dak moves and thinks slow, makes poor decisions, holds the ball too long and takes sacks, puts the WR's at risk making them contort and reach for his poorly thrown balls.. Sooooooo.....is this the fault of MM, Dak, or the WR's? Because it's ONE OR ALL OF THE THREE (3)!!! I do know one thing for certain....we cannot afford to extend and pay 60M per to a QB that has to have EVERYTHING perfect to succeed.
Did the Cowboys lose? I left after the first touchdown Buffalo scored. I am kidding. I know they lost Not much effort.

Insultive attitude concerning game conditions flipping? Where did that come from?

Not hard at all...starting out instead as a productive offense with momentum and strengthening the qualities of the Cowboys' own defense. A small linebacker type group.

That flips around effectiveness...either to being taken advantage of or pressing advantages. I'm not a foolish nor stupid commentor.

You do understand momentum and effects rhythms have on an opponent.

Dallas lost by 21.

You insulted me by implying I was stupid and didn't see statistics accumulated by Buffalo running the ball. Two teams have done that...San Francisco and Buffalo.

If you are going to suggest that there was a problem there...come on out and say it.

I think more is involved with early penalties and ineffective offense early against both the Bills and 49'ers.

We had a smart and accurate QB in 2014
Really?? The last QB that I can recall being smart & accurate in a Cowboys uniform was Aikman #8. **I'll give Drew Bledsoe honorable mention for his 22 games {4,803 yds passing / 30 TD's}., 2005 - 2006 season.** Unfortunately he was injured in week 6, then Romo #9 took over and the rest is history..

That is the real reason for your animus and this post. He is not Romo. There is nothing that Dak can do, to change your mind. The more successful the team, the more you attack. Why don't you write a "Dear Romo" letter and see if he is willing to come back.
