CFZ Season is young

[The Fonz]

One game like Zona game in the playoff and you are done .
this team talk too much I don't see them disciplined enough to sustain winning

 

[Sarge]

Season is indeed young and there is no question this is a good team, really good in many ways. Having said that, this loss reinforces some concerns I already had/have.…….on to the Patriots.

It’s a devastating loss for me and my ego. I knew after the first quarter we were in for a fight. After the half I had that bad feeling in my stomach.

We had no big plays to build on. Our Defense did not get the turn overs and put points on the board. Could not get off the field and gave up ALOT of yards rushing. LVE looked like someone paid him off to slow down. Comparing his first 2 games to Sundays he looked different.

The refs certainly were not in our favor. A few bad calls or non calls. Should have been PI on Gallup. I think they threw the flag and then picked it up.

BUT… Our Offense looked sluggish. In a game when we knew cards were going to put points on the board and they saw the way our Defense was playing. They knew it was gonna be a shootout but we’re not very aggressive.

I hate to say this or think this and it’s still early in the season but I have a feeling we saw our Offense. I mean as far as opening up the playbook up. We needed to open it up and move the ball. I saw no real deep shots or trying to stretch their defense. We made some plays but didn’t do enough. And there towards the end MM is running the ball instead of passing it. And when we needed that play Dak had a play with not enough places to go. He throws into triple coverage. I have seen him slip these passes in but it got picked. He should have scrambled with that one IMO. Going for it on 4th down instead of kicking the FG. Showed MM didn’t have the confidence in the Defense on that day.

I am giving benefit of the doubt for this game. We were missing 3 starters on O-Line. Let’s hope given more time Dak could have gotten off more passes and yards and we could have ran better. I was happy to see Cooks make some plays and especially Gallup, he had me worried. Also Luepke got some plays. Looked good.

the weakness of Texas coast offense....built to play with a lead....we must develop scheme to throw downhill a lot more often or wasting good receivers...we got

to be a team that can comeback even being down a lot....cause it happens to every team....we need Tyron back or at least put Tyler LT and move other guy to

guard.....that was very poor coaching decision....like we all could see it but them....i think things will be different going forward?

hopefully last game is a learning game and we go forward?

 

[glimmerman]

All simple situational obvious reasons why we didnt open it up. Theres not a chance in hell what you saw is our offense.

I hope not.

 

[glimmerman]

Nah, the next three games before the bye week will tell us a lot.

Patriots
Niners
Chargers

Comparing this team to teams who proved they could win titles is just rationalizing. The current group of Cowboys have a different track record until proven otherwise.

If it’s the same ole team we will win all 3 and then lose to a team with no wins.

As I posted in another thread, the SB winning 90's teams lost to bad teams in the regular season.
It's freaking week 3. We won't really know what kind of team we really have until after Turkey Day.

You hit the nail on the head. The Super Bowl winning teams. This team for the past 27 years have not won a thing. To many of us it’s the same thing every year. Those 90’s team where champs. You knew they would bounce back. I have no confidence thus team can win a playoff game against the eagles or SF.

Season might be young but I'm not anymore sure like to see a successful one before I'm too old to even know what I'm watching.

 

[JustChip]

I refuse to look for positives in a loss to the Cardinals.

Aubrey was a positive. There were no positives other than that.

However, it was only 1 game and 1 game does not a trend make. The next 2 weeks will tell quite a bit about this team.

This season will just be a repeat of the last few years. They will win around 10 games. They might make the playoffs and if they do it will be an early exit.

If they can't stop the run and score in the Red zone you are 100% right.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

I'm ready to put the Arizona game away for good, but before I do there were actually two positives: Michael Gallup finally looked like Michael Gallup again; and Tony Pollard had his best game on the ground despite a makeshift o-line.

How about the fantastic season we are going to have?

It will end as it always does

It will end as it always does

A loss in the playoffs? I prefer to enjoy the season and see what happens.
