Can't wait to see the practice and injury reports this week. Wonder if the wake up call relates to load management as well.

Unless they're waking up to the fact that they completely botched the offseason, this is just more of the same. They'll fire McCarthy and make Quinn the HC, extend Dak without putting an offense around him, and then have another surprise wake up call around the same time next year. Maybe draft a couple more second and third stringers at low value positions in the top two rounds. Basically do everything as close as possible to the way they've always done it while magically expecting different results.

They really are doing a great job in the front office. They really have impressed themselves.

Okay for them to have slow starts, but when we do, and yes, game 3 is the start of the season, it some how is some crisis?



And, the Jet's won't make playoffs Lions possibly will. Not sure the relevance here though


The Jets still have a good Defense, the reason they were "considered" a good team was Rodgers. Interesting how an injury can change the trajectory of a team.

Who are these many you speak of?


Yes, they had a great game plan, executed extremely well, had some breaks go their way some non calls and flags picked up. Props to them for having a great game.


Who does this favoring by 2 TD's, would it be groups who would like to encourage people to bet? Is it some form of official NFL favoring we see? And exactly how relevant is this favoring to real world?


Ok, even more props to them for putting a game plan in place to have him succeed, mostly though it was success through the ground, including his running that gave us fits.


I wasn't embarrassed. I am just a dude watching on his laptop through a streaming site. Nothing about what this team has any reflection on my life, or how I conduct my everyday business. Nothing. We got beat, it happens, there are 14 more games to enjoy watching. At the end of the day, I will still have a family to provide for, Dr.'s Appointments to make, work to complete, reading to do, movies I want to watch, and memories to be made with my fiance.

The Dallas Cowboys win-loss record does not define me. I am sorry it seems to be for you.

I don’t have time for everything you posted. The Cowboys didn’t get off to a slow start to the season. They simply don’t have the team everyone thought they had after the first two games. The Giants were gashing us with the run on their first drive in the opener, but had to get away from it because they got way behind. We can’t stop the run and we’re struggling to score TDs with this new offense, especially in the redzone. After three games our WRs don’t have a single TD. Can’t remember the last time that happened after three games. We’re missing Dalton Schultz in the redzone who scored a number of TDs for us. The Cowboys are going to have to open up this offense and get the ball down the field. We have to create some big plays offensively and our defense has to cut down on giving up big plays or this is going to be a long season.

What about the Chiefs? They lost their home opener to the Lions. What about the Bills? They lost to the Jets.

The Chiefs recently did this thing called "winning Super Bowls". When you do things like that you get more leeway on the tough questions, though even the Chiefs will start hearing it as soon as they fall off the mountain top.

Why do the Cowboys always need a wake up call? They haven’t won a divisional round game in 28 years. What happened yesterday against the Cardinals happens every season with the Cowboys.

What ever the problem, one still has to correct it...when it is figured out. One has to solve when and where it happens. The talent is still there.

I'm thinking right now, about how the defense handles Zek Elliott now New England. He looked pretty re-energized for the Patriots and will arrive with some anger in his heart this week. New Englad still plays tough.
