-The Good
*How about Dak Prescott, ya he played really well and when he gets those legs moving out of the pocket he can move the chains
*CD Lamb can take over a game when he wants to and he did just that yesterday
*Darond Bland had made replacing Trevon Diggs look easy with another pick six
*Free Sam Williams.... to block punts
*Ferguson is a solid TE and can keep drives alive
*Only two sacks by the defense but a ton of pressures
*LVE injury was a blessing in disguise because Marques Bell makes the defense faster and he makes a lot of plays
-The Bad
*Two sacks to start the game that should have been three if not for a bad bad bad penalty by the officials
*The INT by Prescott was doomed from the start, the formation had Hunter Luepke lined up in the slot and doing a drag route, hey McCarthy put that play in the vault
*Still need to do better in the run game, the backs are getting eaten up at the LOS
*Bad penalty by Wright cost Turpin a touchdown and the Cowboys a 50 spot
-The Ugly
*Back-to-back drives that ended in touchdowns to end the half and to start the second half by the Rams
*Cowboys LT Chuma Edoga who filled in for Tyron Smith left the game with an injury after playing pretty well
-Next Week
*Well here we go the game of the year so far against the Eagles who barely beat and struggled with the Commanders for the second time this season. Not much needs to be said here because we all know what's at stake, see you next week

Next week=We BETTER get the O-line fixed if not they're going to have a field day

Will we have the same results or close to it, all those EASY looking slant passes may not be as easy this upcoming game

THey made a big trade, I BET he makes a play or 2 just for us fans to complain about!

When dak starts moving out of the pocket hes one of the best qbs in the league, seriously these past two games all of his best throws were on the move.
Rams oline was kinda battered, pressures were insane but would like to see some sacks to kill some drives. I almost got 2013 packers flashbacks when they rams scored back to back.

I am concerned about our OL style of play. they are big physical and strong, yet they are forced to play a finesse style. on pass defense they are on their heels, reacting to the DL men, as opposed to engage and controlling them. same in running game where it seems they are forced to being more zone blocking than just take the guy in front of you and smash him. let the RB find the holes. its been like that all year and both pass blocking and run blocking suffers.

the run defense, surprisingly not physical up front, but built around speed to limit the yards, which explains the runs up the middle and amount of yards we give up after contact. I counted 8 times yesterday we got to the RB in the backfield or LOS and each time he just went through the tackle.

the eagles and cowboys, being division rivals know each other really well. there won't be any surprises, just comes down to execution and talent. they are a little more talented than us, although have struggled in execution a little this year. so have we. should be an interesting game.
