Please allow me to offer my sympathies. It must be quite a conflicting existence being both a Cowboys fan and a prophet.

I'm just wondering why you are still here if you already know the end result
The writing is on the wall.

1) Dak Prescott looked HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE against the worst team in the NFL
2)GLUE STICK (LVE because he sticks to blockers) is rounding into form.
3)The fix is on. Worst officiating call of season & the Dallas hater Blandino even called an incomplete pass.
4)THIS TEAM IS NOT GOING TO OR WINNING A SUPPER BOWL.
Seems odd timing to take a shot at LVE

Please elaborate on the officiating. Which call was the worst ever?

Not so sure if this qualifies as a pyrrhic victory, I still see the light at the end of the tunnel.

LVE finally made a few plays but just serves to prove my point he usually sucks and horribly inconsistent. He was terrible on many plays yesterday and wrong gap and wrong direction. We should have lost this game the way we were slashed in the run game. Many on here were going crazy about him finally showing up to a game and talking about extension. This is ludicrous.

First half McCarthy challenge showing Texan receiver not controlling ball to ground for first down. The ball moved and touched the ground and clear non controll to ground. Blandino even called it an incomplete and he got the Dez Bryant catch wrong due to Cowboys hate.

we were slashed in the run game? lol outside of 1 run for 24 yards Cowboys held Pierce to 2.5 a carry and even with the 1 run for 24 he only got 3.5 a carry.

Slashed in the run game? The Cowboys have been one of the best in the league against the run ever since the Packer game. Barkley, Taylor, and Pierce were all held under 4YPC.

I agree it was at best questionable call. As for the officials hating on Dallas is that why we were only flagged 3 times in the game? Only people hating on the Cowboys are at this site

114 rushing total, not a lot but we got schooled by the worst team in the NFL…..happy about that? Is this championship play? Of course not. If Dak plays like this in the playoffs, we are toast.

Heck yeah pyrrhic all the way to the Super Bowl

That would be impossible. I don't know that he used the term Pyrrhic victory correctly. It doesn't just mean lucky to win. Had Dak, Pollard, and Lamb gone down to injury for the season, that would be a Pyrrhic victory.

If this was a Dallas receiver it would have been incomplete. Too bad we cant do a double blind test. Officiating is biased against dallas and the most obvious case is where they almost always spot the ball short on line to gain. Always. Other teams almost never when it is close.
