Playing with the Lead

[Bobhaze]

This is evidence of the miracle that the Cowboys are even 1-2. Having only 7 snaps with the lead in 180 minutes of football is astounding. Teams that play with the lead dictate how the game is played. Every fan on this forum screaming for a ball control game from the Cowboys- that’s hard to do when you’re down 2-3 scores.

Whichever team wins the coin toss Sunday, the Cowboys would surely benefit from either an opening TD drive or Cle 3 and out (or better yet, Cle turnover) Having some early success would be a welcome change.

Offense pts scored: 29ppg avg.
Defense pts allowed: 32ppg avg.

Until we fix the D, nothing changes.

I thought this was solved when we drafted for "40 Burgers". Just kidding. Love the Lamb pick and completely agree we need to fix the defense.

Extremely important vs this weeks opponent.

Turnovers needed

From the opponent...

The Cowboys have only played with a lead for 13 minutes this season. They’ve been too busy digging themselves out of deep holes.

3 wks into a very weird season.

all 3 games we have the ball at the end to possibly win or tie...despite the self-inflicteds and roller-coaster defense.

in 4th Qtr points alliwed...Dallas' defense ranks 7th.
if we can just figure out the other 3 Qtrs.

From the opponent...

Of course. That’s how the Saints won a SB. So so defense and an amazing offense.

So how many of you morons wanted Jerry to hire Lincoln Riley?
