Commanders are doing extreme things to beat us.
Kicking 55yd FG when it would be the longest for the kicker.
Surprise onside kick.

This is the same type of pressure the 1993 offense used to do to opponents.
The problems is obviously that we dont have the 1993 defense - namely Haley.

Going to be a crazy ride.

Cousins had to pass over fifty times to try and keep up with us on the score board. I can remember many games where Romo had to pass for forty plus times and usually we would lose the game. There is something to be said about our balance on offense. Go Cowboys

The scary thing was 0 sacks despite this. Though you can say bend and not break.

watch the post game presser from Garrett he explains the defense for this game. He wanted to stop the run and keep the passing game from them underneath. The Jackson long pass in the fourth was not planned. He main goal was to win and not worry about sacks, yardage, etc.

It just makes no logical sense.

4-12 and a laughingstock to 10-1 the next season? Fishy.

He can say that all he wants. Over 50 passes with 0 sacks.
Worst of all, it seems we barely touched Cousins in the 2nd half.

Like Theo said 1 for the win column. Watch the presser you will feel better.

And they still only gave up 26 points to an offense that's been on fire.

Go figure.

Well bent but not break worked to a certain point.
However, one can argue it should have been 29 points.

For what it is worth, they also hung 26 points on the Vikings but I have no idea where the Vikings O and D are at these days in terms of # of possessions and injuries.

They are what there are, a defense that will give up a bunch of yardage but will limit the damage by not giving up a lot of TD's.

When you add the best player in the draft and find a starting quarterback in the 4th round that tends to turn your team around quickly...

The pressure is opposing D's dont know whats coming. I'll add that when they try and take weapons away and make Dak beat them, he can with his arm or legs.
