I mean how can anyone deny how prepared and disciplined this team is?

LOL.
Yep, it's tight knit team no doubt..........even belichick has to wonder how Garrett does such a remarkable job every week at having this team game ready.

IIRC #95 ran off the field before that play. Pretty sure we had 4 down linemen in so I guess they were a LB short on that play?

Isn't the defensive captain supposed to be responsible for that? I thought a safety or someone always counted to make sure there were not 12 men on the field but that should also mean knowing there are 11, right?

Covington ran off the field right before the snap, I could see from my couch they had 10. Not sure what's worse, this dumb *** coaching staff didn't call a TO, or that apparently the only defensive player permitted to call a TO is Jaylon Smith, who's as dumb as a box of rocks. He said "he didn't want to burn a timeout they might need." Hey, if you don't need it when you are playing 10 vs 11, when are you going to use it? dumb coaches, dumber players.

The Cowboys have fallen behind early in seven of their nine games—four of those seven were by multiple scores.

In almost half the games they’ve played this year, they’ve immediately given themselves a low chance of winning. The moment you fall behind by two scores, you have to adjust your game plan on the fly. And they’ve won only one game in which they’ve fallen behind by two scores. What are they doing all week? It’s clear they aren’t consistently preparing for what their opponents are going to do.

Outside years where they were a bad football team—double digit losses—I don’t think I’ve seen anything like this.

Jaylon is dumb?

This really says something about you.
