Although, I did not like the turnovers, I like the Dak that airs the ball out deep. Must be better in pocket and he showed it at times, in the 4 quarter.

Dallas being consistent with the run, opens up the running game. Let the RB position develop.

Receiver end rounds are atrocious and need to stop.

The TE position is contributing greatly and it should continue.

McCarthy is somehow winning without coaching well in at all.

The defense looked more unified, but the penalties need to stop.

McCarthy is coaching well. He is a good coach.

This , we could see miles away , there is no innovation and surprise and blocking is not at all aligned

The fact that we established the run allowed us to air it out some. The Steelers like to play two-deep but had to resort to some single-high because we showed that we were willing and able to run.

We don't have any speed to the outside in our running game, so we use the end-arounds to provide that speed. They are not always effective, but we have to show the threat of an outside running game to keep defenses from just disregarding it. Frankly, I'd like to see a few more RPOs thrown in. That's another way to keep DEs at home instead of pinching down on the inside running game. Of course, we may be hesitant to do that with Dak as he gets older and has had a few injuries.

Fourth quarter 3rd and 6 everyone expecting a pass MM dialed up a pitchout to Dowdle and he picked up more then enough yards . Good call .

Even if Carson heals while Bland is out I use him as depth , # 27 Amani O. has won that job opposite Diggs until Bland is back I would think after the bye week .

But if the team wins. Is that not good coaching?
Yeah I always wonder how people gauge what good coaching is vs bad coaching. He just won a game with his best players out in a bad weather hostile environment while on a 2 hour delay…that takes same form of coaching….

Some teams win despite coaching.
