They bought into their own hype again

[TheMarathonContinues]

Detroit took advantage of Dallas' weaknesses while Dallas did not do the same.

OT, LB and CB are huge holes on this team.

LB for sure is. And last night Overshown was bad with the rest of them. Now with him I’m not worried. But even with him that unit needs a overhaul.

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

Maybe they did, Maybe they did not.
Can not say for sure.

What I can say for sure is that they were able to get away with mistakes vs the Eagles and Chiefs games that could have cost them.

They did not get away with those mistakes during this game.

Turn Overs and Penalties.

Schotty has helped change some things this year.

However it would appear that fixing the penalty issues is not one of them.

Defense got exposed. In their defense they handled Gibbs in the rushing game. He got in space and our linebackers got exposed including Overshown. Not many teams have a Gibbs to do it with but yeah it for sure happened.

I knew they would. We were never gonna have a good enough Defense to beat a good team. Or our Offense. Our O-Line was MIA last night. And I saw Pickens go down on his first catch and I would be he played with a concussion. When lions safety tackled him and knocked himself out of the game, Pickens went down strange. We never lined up early and ran the ball at them we ran away from them. Bland missed a pick and Fergie fumbles and then a hands to the face penalty that was way away from the play that negated a PI that gives us the ball 40 yards down field at the 2 yard line. That would have pulled us back in it. The refs didnt help enough this week lol..

Well last night for some reason Eberflus stopped blitzing. I do not understand this guy. His motto is he’d rather have a team score 7 after 10 plays as opposed to bringing pressure and potentially giving up a big play. Man I don’t understand him. It was working and he said stop it. He might need to be mentally checked out. They drug test players do coaches too

Beating the Eagles and Chiefs at home really wasn’t that impressive. I tried to tell y’all.

 

[Kingofholland]

I think some thought they were playing Sunday and forgot to show up yesterday.

When he brings heat he gets there. These players feed off it but he likes to lean in his secondary that plays 10 yards off. I kept waiting for that splash play from our Defense and it’s like they were waiting for the play call that never came. This is why I didn’t bye into the hype. If a team with a good record comes in then Eber and Shotty get weird. Look at the early run plays, we should have lined up and ran down field but we ran away from them. We needed to attack and we ran. Refusal to get the ball to Lupke in space hurts. He is tough to tackle and always picks up a first down. I never saw his name called last night.

Yeah by far the most frustrating DC we’ve had. Even more so then Nolan.

And by extension, some of us did too. Though, we’re fans and are allowed that stupidity!!! Why would Dak say he was going to light up the Lions? Did Brady, Peyton Manning or Mahomes ever say they were going to light up a team? Dak believed in the hype and let it get to his head. We see this year after year with Dallas. They go on a small run and start thinking they’re world beaters. Instead of worrying about an ***-kicking from last year, focus on what’s in front of you. I can’t stand this team sometimes. Come on!!

It happens every year.

 

[goshann]

We put up 30
Lit them up pretty good

The Cowboys beat the Eagles and Chiefs and a lot of people were saying the Cowboys are the best team in the NFL. They are the most feared team in the NFL. The Chiefs and Eagles are not what they were last year. This team isn't that good. Next year with the cap hit they are going to have trouble to improve.

 

[Cmac]

Bad idea.......SAS is the perfect example of the hype. Has nothing more but to talk about a non-contender like us.......solely for his ratings and comical theatrics. We are not a playoff contender this year but keep getting talked about. Figure it out.

 

[Risen Star]

They didn't buy into their own hype. They just played a better team and on the road.
