It is clear this team is playing poorly overall, but Dak is playing lights out as are his targets.

We will be in every game, but we are not a threat with the Defense playing at this level of bad.

I challenge the media in Dallas to get answers from the coaching staff and find out exactly why with an improved roster it is playing so poorly.

Also: the ST Coach needs to answer for what looks to be the worst unit in the NFL.

I understand we want a dominant defense, but going into today Dallas was 7th in yards allowed and 6th in points allowed.

As much as the defense has let the fandom down, in today's NFL and compared to other teams Dallas is actually top ten and close to top five.

Watching them week in week out you wouldn't think that, but Dallas has one of the better defense's in the NFL.

no they don’t. They don’t force turnovers and can’t stop the run against a rushing attack with a pulse. They aren’t good.

Going into today Dallas was 16th in turnovers(middle of the pack) and 13th against the run. So if you look at these two stats Dallas is average, not great.

I like to look at points allowed because if you're top five in this category you should win many games, depending on your points scored.

If the coaches had the answer, hopefully they would resolve the issue(s).

Heath being out was a huge problem today and last week.

Very surprising. We are spoiled by having had some very good D’s In the past. The frustrating part to me is getting a lead and letting the other team get right back into the game

Sigh.

Thompson was in position just not good enough to do anything about it.

Heath is not the answer, no matter how many times you repeat it. All of our safeties are liabilities right now.
 
The biggest problem is this team's recent history of missing on DEs--last five drafts. They whiffed big time by spending a second round pick on a player, (Gregory), who couldn't pass his Combine screen. Should never have been on the board. Then they way over draft an underachiever in the first round. You can't keep missing on high picks for rush men without it not coming back to bite you on the butt.

Its not going to happen. This defense is toast. And we don't have the coaching to do anything about it.

ST coach should have been fired last week. When was the last time that “phase” did anything positive? Julius jones?

The defense has been terrible the last two weeks.

they were playing better earlier in the season. That is true.

But the last two weeks have been awful. Just awful.
 
Wouldn’t pin anything on them changing, They simply don’t have the roster. Get some takeaways is only way to balance that out...but they don’t do much of that either.

Like Rods worst Dallas defense year bad....it looks just like that unit. Giving up big 3rd downs and gash plays to nobodies of the league.
