Rams/Cardinals Game Thread

By who?

by whom

They beat us 25-22. Let’s not act like it was an offensive explosion. They shut down our run game and filled the passing lanes and held us to 22 points. That’s why they won. Dak led the Cowboys in rushing with 20 yards. That’s all anyone needs to know to ID the biggest problem in Dallas.

They got whupped by the Lions and Colts, won at Dallas, then lost to the Seahawks.

Three losses to non-playoff teams sandwiched around a win at Dallas.

OBJ is revived. This team is the team to beat. We don't have a player who can step up like this on this stage. We have the opposite.

Stafford has great skills, and I’ve seen him thread the needle this season, but let’s be honest, there’s not a QB in this league who couldn’t complete the passes he’s had tonight. Guys are wide open right away for short passes with easy passing lanes, all because play-action has to be respected. Dallas can win with Dak, who can also thread the needle at times IF we will simply scheme and commit to running the football. And if you think the solution is a different RB, you’re wrong. Moore simply won’t or can’t do it, so the OL develops no toughness or confidence.

We made the Cardinals look a lot better than what they are.

OBJ is their 3rd best weapon. That team is LOADED with weapons and they have a good OLine and they have the best defender in the NFL (and a decent secondary). In terms of top end talent they probably are the most loaded.

We didn't play as embarrassing as a few other teams in the playoffs.

I'll hang my hat on that.

Rams are not the team to beat. Do not be fooled by this game. They are playing the Cardinals. Cardinals were on a skid until the played us, looked great and then the game after? Looked bad. tonight? Very bad. Tampa will beat the Rams.

Leave it to Dallas to make Arizona look great.

 

[Adiba1977]

Dak doesn’t do that. Gotta anticipate where player will be. Get ball out.

 

[SlammedZero]

I thought this was going to be a good game when I first turned it on tonight. lol

 

[Carson]

Happy for Stafford getting his first playoff win

I thought this was going to be a good game when I first turned it on tonight. lol

Cardinals were a lot like Dallas. Didn’t finish the season well and it shows come playoff time

 

[KJJ]

The playoffs really separate the contenders from the pretenders.

 

[shabazz]

…..this game show how crappy the Cowboys really are. All delusions usually have a way of being blown up

cards beat cowboys, rams cream cards, ergo Dallas can celebrate their 12 big wins in the NFC Least

Tampa will beat them next week.

This team lost to the 49ers last week. Rodgers and Brady might have something to say about them being the team to beat.

 

[jazzcat22]

Agree, the nerve of them to compare our franchise quarterback to any of these other bums

It is not that, it is just not the place to do it.
But we do have some pretty idiotic people on here.

 

[TheHerd]

Brees career is phenomenal, particularly looking from the perspective height. You could tell though, the games he struggled in the playoffs it was when there was some interior push up the middle, which obviously created issues regarding his view.

It's not about height, it's about reading and throwing ability. Brees had it, Wilson has it, Murray not so much.

They are doing this without Robert Woods too.

 

[Adreme]

For a fun stat, OBJ now has more yards passing tonight (40) than Murray (28).

……or it just shows how bad the Cowboys are compared to the Rams
