I tried telling folks who said this team sucks and is going 6-11. Team can’t run the ball, defense can’t stop the run and Dak sucks.

The loss sucks. They had em. Fortunately, this is the first game of the season and these bright spots have me feeling good going forward:

* Dak looks very mobile, strong and aware.
* The run game looked so much improved from recent years.
* The offensive line dominated IMHO. A few mental mistakes, but they didn’t get out physicaled.
* The defense actually made in game adjustments and clamped down on the run. Barkley only had 60 yards. Hurts was awesome on the ground though.
* The team overall looked prepared. First game of the season you know they’re going to be fired up and they were. But they played within themselves, not like that yahoo Carter, and kept the pressure on throughout the game.
* I saw toughness from the team. Dak making that TD saving tackle after the fumble is going to pay dividends within themselves locker room.
* Only 4 penalties.

Probably won’t shut up all the habitual critics but maybe some.

My biggest issue is there was nobody mirroring Hurts and that's one reason he ran on us so much..
 
Hopefully, the players will be more familiar with the schemes on both sides of the ball and along with Overshown and others coming back, bodes well for being ready for murderers row.
With this team we saw tonight. Our season looks bright. Withstanding they stay healthy.
Now it’s matter of fine tuning areas .
 
Lamb is the biggest piece of crap. Irvin would have never dropped those throw. No heart. You young cowboys fats have no idea. God bless you. Geeze . I'm so thankful that I saw those super both wins.
