Twitter: The Cowboys defense is elite - PFF

[KJJ]

Teams are running when the game is essentially over because they have little to no chance to pass continuously.

Most of our games have come down to the fourth quarter. Even the games we’ve won by two or more scores have down to the fourth quarter. Several teams have established their running game right from the very start. This is how they’ve been able to move the football against us and stay in the game.

What is the run defense ranking?

24th.

I disagree.

The Bengals and Bears, in particular, ran because they had essentially no choice.

They ran the ball because defending the run is our weakness. Running the ball is how you avoid our pass rush, which is our strength. Running the ball is the Bears strength, they’re the number one rushing team in the league. They scored more points against us than any team we’ve faced. They rushed for 240 yards.

Ok. Take it easy.

You’re the one disagreeing I’m just calmly pointing out the facts.

Sacks = $.

Simple enough.

And a sucky run defense....

 

[LACowboysFan1]

I mean, can you really blame them? If getting 10 sacks vs 6 meant a difference in my future annual contract value of 5-10 million dollars I think I might care a little bit about picking up those few extra sacks. The NFL first and foremost is a business and players are employees. This isn't high school football.

Exactly why the NFL is so big. It's entertainment, football is just the means by which it entertains.

Hahahahahahahahaha at anyone who still relies on PFF.

This defense isn't even good, yet alone elite.

 

[QuikZ06]

Need to stop hearing about elite D, they are average at best!

 

[StarMan2112]

Elite my ***!

 

[MysteryIceGuro]

The only thing “elite” about this trash fetish of a team is their ability to be elite in losing every damn year.

 

[TNCowboy]

at PFF. The only thing the D is elite at is taking their best player and taking him out of position to make plays.

 

[KJJ]

So much for this defense being elite. Lol Its the same old defensive that never steps up with games on the line, especially against Aaron Rodgers.

 

[KJJ]

We have the best defense in football.

What was that again?

 

[terra]

If this is elite what the he** does a sucky D look like?

 

[manster4ever]

LOFL....."ELITE" per PFF. Only thing that sucks worse than our overrated D is in fact...PFF! *** that clown show, they have been continually discredited and guys still buy what they're peddling. Its pathetic.

 

[nightrain]

Trade Diggs and Parsons for a boat load of picks and build a balanced team from the inside out.

 

[CATCH17]

What was that again?

Well not when Parsons is playing linebacker that was a disgrace. Someone should lose their job for that decisions.

He’s so average at linebacker.

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

Dallas defense RECOVERED TWO FUMBLES ,

Dallas offense THROWS TWO INTERCEPTIONS + ZERO POINTS IN 4TH QTR AND OVERTIME.

good luck with that.
