Too many penalties again. I think there were 4 false start penalties. 3 against Terence Steele.

Too many trick plays that don't work.

Not enough Zeke. He looked good tonight. They should have kept feeding him.

What happened to that thread about Pollard being as good as Zeke blocking? Pollard gave up two sacks tonight with his excellent blitz pickups.

Steele was not very good tonight. One game and I miss La'el Collins - or Doug Free.

So much for Dak starting hot and cooling off after 8 games. Dak looked like it was game 11 tonight. Seriously, I wish Dallas had a $40 million QB.

Not to complain about the refs, but I thought they were going to get tough on downfield contact? The Bucs were literally mauling Cowboys WRs.

The Bucs OL, beat up as it was, did a lot of holding tonight. They also beat up the Cowboys DL.

LVE looked like 2020 LVE tonight.

Anthony Barr did not look like much. Why did they sign him? Give Cox a shot.

I wish the Cowboys would tighten up their coverage against Brady. Take those short passes and intermediate passes away from him. Let him throw deep if he wants. His arm is not what it used to be.

The Cowboys LBs and DBs are not good getting off blocks, or I wish the Cowboys WRs and TEs could block the way the Cowboys LBs and DBs get blocked.

Parsons is getting double and triple teamed some times. So where is DLaw?

Dorance Armstrong is no Randy Gregory.

Most Cowboys players are overrated.

CeeDee is a slot receiver.

Tyler Smith looked good tonight all things considered. I saw one massive pancake of a DT.

Farniok is going to be a good player. I don't know how badly McGovern is hurt but if he misses time it will give Farniok the time to develop into a solid OG. The guy is always looking for someone to block. I saw Steele standing around watching the play a few times tonight.

I am revising my prediction for Dallas's record in 2022. I think they will finish 6-11. That's assuming Dak plays. If he misses significant time, the Cowboys will be drafting in the top 5 again. Jerry will take a WR instead of a QB.

Wow................we could only hope we draft in the top 5. That would be a miracle!!!

Yes the Dorance to Gregory drop off was massive.

FYI...............Collins was part of the Oline that got Burrows sacked 7 times today with 4 picks. He sucks!!!

Dont lose hope on CD. Although he certainly wont look great with Rush throwing to him.

Collins played better than Steele. Steele had 4 penalties called on him yesterday. The entire Bengals team only had 4 penalties.

We just need to regroup and stack good days on top of good days. We’ll be fine. We’re in good hands.

The positives:

Micah is an amazing pass rusher
Zeke ran well
Tyler Smith played surprisingly well

Negatives:

It would be easy to say everything else, but in reality, the big negatives for me were

Offensive play calling
Dak
Interior DL
WR's

The only problem with Micha rushing the passer is he’s not playing LB when Fournette goes off tackle all night. They did that on purpose to neutralize him

My takeaway is that this team is forever doomed. The offense was absolutely pathetic last night. Couldn't pass the ball, wouldn't run the ball, and couldn't get through a series with a penalty of some sort.

I wonder if the Jones' will start to understand the point of preseason. I suspect not because they always coddle and pamper their premier players and then wonder why everything looks like a dumpster fire in week 1.
