Game Day New Orleans Saints at Dallas Cowboys | 2nd Half Thread

[acr731]

I think last week fooled us. But I think we need to look at the roster and understand that this team is lacking depth at certain positions and tried to fill it in with cheap unproven, or over the hill players.

Brooks and Tolbert are JAGs, I am not sure Brooks would play for any other team but Dallas.

The defense has not fixed the problems that had last year. There is no pass rush outside Micah and if a team commits to stopping him there is no one else to put pressure on the QB. The run defense is only marginally improved over last year.

On offense, we have no running game and that puts a lot of pressure on receivers like Tolbert and Brooks because CeeDee is going to see a lot of attention and Cooks is a limited #2 at best.

Finally, to think that a rookie like Carson could come in and take the place of an all-pro like Bland is just folly.

I think Dallas is going to have games like this one all season long. Their weaknesses along the DL, and the inability to threaten defenses with a running game are going to open them up to some big offensive outputs against them.

That's on you for getting so easily fooled. You should have known better

Guys don;t worry we play Baltimore next week it will be better

Watching the Ravens first half right now and they ain't looking good either.

Let's go Cowboys! Never quit

 

[atlantacowboy]

The team can’t run the ball or stop the run. And nothing is likely to change bc we are saddled with a 260M guaranteed contract to one guy.

 

[Staubacher]

On a positive note..my Cowboys fantasy football team is ahead

My fantasy is killing too I had Jefferson for the 97 yarder

 

[Cowboys5217]

Im not worried
We got Dak and CD and Diggs
Lets pay Micah at half time

This is what happens when you pay top dollar for mediocrity

Yep. When you fail upwards these are the results - more failure. This time in the form of the worst defensive first half in team history.

We should be going after somebody like the Saints OC as head coach this off-season, but we all know Jerry will want some retread like Belicheck or promote Zimmer.

I think this whole year was a placeholder for Belichick or Saban. Someone like that. Hence they did jack squat in FA.

 

[Beastsfromthenfceast]

This deficit will force Prescott to throw several more INT'S .

 

[KJJ]

Do we have enough bacon left to win the game?

We’re in a real deep hole but we score on them. Dak and our offense won’t give up. It’s going to come down to our defense forcing some turnovers and making stops. The defense always folds every time we get punched in the mouth. I said after last weeks game I still didn’t trust the defense.

 

[windward]

The offense is on pace for 32 points. That is a good offensive game that should win 90% of the time. If you need to score over 70 win in the NFL you are not winning in the NFL.

These people are not appreciators of nuance or context.

Where are all the "RBs are a dime a dozen" folks at?

Those people want to draft a RB every 4 years with fresh legs not sign players multiple years past their prime

 

[Havic]

Lmao bro what

3 first half FG's isnt good enough, poor efficiency coming back to bite us this week, its was good enough against the Browns.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

Cowboys score a quick TD to start the second half

Yeah I’m really excited to see our defense again!!

 

[Rajveer]

Good, get pissed, own your mistakes.

The world will end before Jerry owns his mistake.

 

[Pipelayer72]

Pull it together D and let's go!!!

 

[Shane612]

Fickle fans…

 

[Xeven]

Don’t think any magical adjustments can save our D. Just getting man handled.

 

[Jipper]

What’s the likelihood the saints score more than Aubrey’s longest field goal today??

 

[SoBlue128]

26 plays 35 points OUCH!

 

[noshame]

Just yesterday I was getting heat for questioning just how much improved this roster was.

COACHING PERIOD
