CowboysZone DIEHARD Fan
He dink and dunked avg less than 5 yards.
Dont know where you were trying to go with that because Dak's ypa was 3.46, a full yard and a half less than Bradys.


With 3 minutes left in the first half, Dak completed 3 passes. Three. And one of them was a pick 6.

Let that sink in, in 27 minutes Dak completed 1 more pass (2) to a Cowboys player than he did a Commander. Two completions in 27 minutes of football.

We three and outed 4 times, had a three play drive that ended in a pick 6, and one drive of 6 plays. Horrible. Not all on Dak, but man he was a part of that problem.

We can win this game against the Bucs, that I have no doubt, but you pointing to last weeks games as if there is some similarity or correlation is just misguided and flawed.

Most fans in here know-you should also- that with this team you don't know what we'll get next Monday. I'm not the problem. It's the team....You could get last Sunday's team or the Minnesota victory team or anything in between. Dallas is quite figgle. They are like the girl that loves you one minute-then want to leave the next. :facepalm:

We still have a playoff game to play and have beaten better teams than the one we are playing...all I'm saying is why care if some fans want optimism over the "Were never gonna make it" feeling

Yo just don’t forget that Tom Brady & the Bucs also lost to a rookie QB on Sunday.
They had nothing riding on the game and Brady didn’t play the entire game. He attempted 17 passes and missed on only four of them with a TD pass. Mike Evans and Leonard Fournette didn’t play. The Cowboys had the NFC East on the line against Washington and got embarrassed. It was our worst game all season and Dak was horrible.

true all of it Dak and the Cowboys were horrible, but to be fair, going into the playoffs we have failed looking good before, resting players before, and squeking in.... thats why i say that the Cowboys are a better team and should win this game, regardless of the poopoo the put on the field last week. If they lose it will be yet another failure in the playoffs to add to the last 26 years of it.

I never said we're going to lose. I said with this team anything is possible. You have nothing set in stone on this team you can depend on week to week. P.S. one thing...inconsistency....

I can’t recall the Cowboys or their QB looking this bad entering the playoffs and winning a playoff game.

Lol yeah but we have looked good going in and lost, thats my point... the Washington game wont be the reason we win or lose, this team will either suck it up and leave it all on the field or they will wilt and die like they have for 26 years in the playoffs

Brady did not play the second half. They had zero to play for. We were trying to win. Huge difference and you can't compare the two.
Having a real GM and Head Coach would have taken care of this problem. But when your owner is GM and defacto Head Coach you do not handle a game correctly. You play your star players in a meaningless game buying the hype that San Francisco and Philly were going to lose to the other teams playing back ups.

Did not happen. As anyone with football sense would know, except a owner, that plays GM, and defacto Head Coach.

Can you remember the last time they were playing good entering the playoffs and went one and done? You would have to go to the 98 season when the Cowboys finished the season with two consecutive wins, only to go one and done to a Jake Plummer led Cardinals team. I can’t even remember the last time they were playing bad entering the playoffs and won a playoff game. The three playoff games they won under Romo and Dak the team was playing good entering the playoffs. They looked terrific entering the 09 playoffs with back to back shut out wins. They beat Philly in the wildcard round. They finished the 2014 regular season with four consecutive wins, which led to a playoff win. The last playoff win they had was during the 2018 season against Seattle, and they finished that regular season with two consecutive wins.

We had nothing to play for Sunday. Just like them. We just didn’t rest our starters. Afraid if we rested them we would come out flat. Left them in and they got their behinds handed to them, now we see if they respond. We ran the same exact plays back to back but we shuffled the players around in the same formation. We gave Brown many chances to make plays and he dropped some easy balls. I wonder how much we will see him. He could be a hero if he could catch the ball. No doubt bucs watch film and won’t cover him as well as other WR’s. Or they will put the worst of their secondary on him. He will be open. How many shots will Dak give him. When you’re standing there alone, lol. It’s hard not to throw to him.
