I hear ya it’s just if that was my defense I would kind of think the wr was just kinda lame here and play on,
I hear you.

Since the officials refuse to call fouls for the Cowboys that the officials clearly call for other teams' receivers, I say our receivers need to start flopping out there! Make the foul so blatantly obvious on camera that the official has no choice but to throw the flag or get absolutely ridiculed on social media worldwide. Play the officials game. Put the onus back on them and force them to do their jobs according to the letter of the rules.

Dak Prescott is very good at watching ceedee lamb sell his entire body for every single inch he can get after the catch. Prescott did him no favors tho ceedee ended Up taking a few brutal hits in this game.


Ceedee may very well be like a 20 touchdown a year guy and we may never know

Yea that kid is special

Last night was his lowest passing yardage game, but he finished with 100.8 passer rating and three TDs. The only thing concerning was the INT and the two that should’ve been picked. He throws more INT‘s than he used to. He’s been getting a little loose with some of his throws.

Typical Dak. Ryan Leaf against any defense with a pulse. Dan Marino when it's stat-padding time.

the fact that you’re calling 66% completion with 3tds Ryan Leaf really brings into question if you understand what you’re watching or not

The offense put up 28 points against a pretty good defense before the 4th quarter silliness started.

Three 70+ yard TD drives and two more 50+ yard TD drives. One turnover (yes, another close call) and one sack.

There are a couple dozen or more NFL teams that would dream of that being their QBs "worst game."

On the one where it was nearly intercepted to Lamb, he had no pressure and a clean pocket. That's a throw he needs to make every time.

Or at least "miss" to the outside.

I was just watching some game highlights. The interception sure is perplexing. It's about as easy as an NFL int can possibly.

And yes...I know other QB's make silly mistakes too. So all'ya'll calm down. :)


What's perplexing about it? The DB outfought the receiver for position (again.) It's a recurring theme with our guys it seems. These are timing throws which are made to a spot counting on the receiver to win. They are by definition a riskier play but it appears that Moore and Dak are committed to keeping them in the offense so we better get used to seeing a few of them go the other way until we either get a Dez type receiver who will die before he lets a db outfight him for the ball, or one of our main receivers becomes that guy. I can't help but chuckle that if Dak had been willing to make these types of "faith" throws to Dez early in his career Dez might still be here.

There's a reason why guys like Stafford and Burrow throw way more INTs than guys like Dak. They take more chances. Now that Dak is taking more chances he's seeing some of the same results.. while the team is still averaging 40 points a game. If Mahomes or Burrow or Stafford were leading a team to 40 ppg we'd be reading every day how Dak needs to play more like them. As long as Dak maintains a 3-1 TD to INT ratio I think we're gonna be okay. I don't like interceptions either.. but they come with the territory when you run this type of offense and you make more "to the spot" throws versus the dreaded "wait till they're open" throws people have railed against for years. Just make up your minds people. Just kidding.. I know people have already made up their minds.. For some of them nothing Dak does will ever be good enough.. Not my problem..

You guys don't "assess" anything. You only nitpick.

It is what you do.

The question was "Was it the worst game since he returned?". What is your answer? How is it nitpicking? Some game has to be the best & some game has to be the worst.

Depends. Did we have to get past Tampa in the first round with Prescott? Don't think 3 points will do it.

How stupid is it of you to cherry pick his worst game while ignoring the other 6 that show that clearly was an anomaly. Risen Shtick at it again I see

Gallup also fell down and it was completely uncontested…

Our recent INTs have been weird though. They’re never just normal picks where you can clearly point the finger.
