You're right: The defense lost the game seeing how they were the only unit on the field most of the contest.

Wasnt rush 3/16 3 INT's in the first half? Our defense is good but its not the 2000 Ravens or the 85 Bears to keep us in it.

Defense lost the game. I said the storm was coming and I was correct. Our linebacking core (not Parsons) is pathetic and porous and cannot stop anything. We are not winning the division and Giants will get the wild card if there is one. Stick a knife in it.

You really need to reassess your wisdom if anything ever causes you to say, "Skip Bayless was right." That should be an immediate clue to you that something is wrong with you.

So the following had nothing to do with the loss:

- 3 turnovers (always a killer)
- Blown call on what was a 4th down conversion
- Failing to challenge bad call
- Not running the ball on 4th & 1
- Questionable play calling by a questionable OC
- Foolish penalties to extend drives

What you can stick a fork, knife, or whatever in, is Skippy's actual relevance to many Cowboys fans.

Defense had a lot of help losing this game, but I admire your restraint of making a thread without mentioning LVE by name.


You mean the pathetic run defense that has plagued this team for 3+ years.

I don't watch Skip but 4 offensive turnovers isn't on the defense. Sure the key drive in the 4th quarter just about closed out the game but Rush also had a critical 4th quarter turnover.

They only gave up like 250 yards total……our O didn’t do their part.

The Cowboys lost because they were dominated in the trenches on both sides of the ball.

The Cowboys committed 10 penalties, some at critical junctures in the game; threw 3 interceptions; got out-coached by Philly’s staff; exhibited poor in-game management; and came out flat with no intensity and got blown out the 1st half…this has been our MO for years.

Anyone who gives credence to Water Pistol Pete Skip Bayless opinions needs to reassess where they get their sports talk……

Defense lost the game? Scoreless first quarter...and zero points on offense and 3 turnovers.

Seriously...

This game was lost because of Rush. We knew it was coming..if offense did any little thing in first half it wouldn't end this way

As always you win as a team and you lose as a team and this season is not over yet ...just let's hope they learn from this and correct the mistakes
The talking heads in it for the money don't take them seriously

Skip Bayless is five minutes from being a total hack. Sharpe is far too high on the Eagles. Saying that the division is over after just six games is hilarious. The Cowboys had an even bigger lead last year and even that began to look perilous after the WR corp had it's issues mid-season.

You had to survive that first half. With Rush I didn't think that it would be possible and I was unfortunately correct. They have a better chance when it comes back home in December. Prescott should be settled in by then.

That said, given that the Eagles are better than they were last year, you have to plan on outscoring them. Hurts and that running game can really cause problems. Putting them behind on the scoreboard could force them to press. With Rush that was simply not going to happen.

Sigh.

Yeah, our "defense" lost the game.

Not the boneheaded penalties, going for it on 4th down at our own 34 or the 3 ints. Those had no effect at all.

Lordy.

When you agree with Skip on anything, it is time to re-review whatever it is.


That 4th down infuriated me, we would have gotten the first with a challenge but instead we hurry up and run a pass play with our back up QB who was having a train wreck of a game
