Thoughts/Opinions about yesterday's comeback win

Right on the edge of a loss and took the win. It’s exciting when CD has a record game. Feel rejuvenated by one half of football. But, could have been feeling the lowest of low if that Hail Mary was completed, So, thankful we’re on the opposite side of that other outcome. Excited for Thursday!
 
I watched the game replay this morning. I think we need to have a talk about Cooper Beebe. I saw Sheldon Rankins him throw him to the ground with 1 arm. When he is one on 1 blocking he struggles a lot.
 
Good take.

The Texans defense in the 2nd half was terrible.

Too much deep zone.
Yeah but what you're missing is it was the same what they were playing all game the Cowboys found a way to beat it they started running better they started blocking a little bit better on the offensive line giving Prescott a little bit more time and guys got open or at least like in the case of George Pickens he he caught the contested catches I mean he's not getting open enough in my opinion but they just figured it out the problem was they didn't adjust the Cowboys adjusted in the second half The Texan stayed in the same defense and the Cowboys figured out a way to beat it..

To give the Cowboys credit their offense came out saw the same looks and go OK We just need to play a little better and they did It was mostly the offensive line and lack of a run threat that ruined the first half for them scoring and then they put up four touchdowns in the second half because the their defense thought they can still keep getting home with four guys rushing and seven guys covering and it didn't work They would have needed to start blitzing again and the Cowboys would have beat that too so yes the Cowboys offense being 1 of the best in the league right now if not the best figured out a way to blow it apart but it was stopping us in the first half that's why the Texans stayed in it..
 
Things like the very first play of the game are concerning. Just gotta hope they find a way to tighten things up.

Logic says that they will. There’s talent there and it’s a new system for everyone. Just get out of Thursday at 3-2 and heal up for ten days. See where we are at then.

It’s tough for these guys to learn to play as a unit and communicate well when too many of them are injured.
 
I want to know what the heck Hooker was doing on the play. Either knock it down or catch it. He did neither. I'm so ready for him to be gone. Every week I question why he is on the 53.
And his tackling is atrocious. Never attempts to wrap a runner up, just tries body blocking him. He's Deion level without the coverage skills.
 
Bell committing pass interference or was the ball tipped already?
that is the unofficial "unwritten rule" in football. Officials rarely call pass interference on a Hail Mary because there are usually eight to ten players all jumping for the ball in a crowded cluster, making mutual contact inevitable.
However, because it is an unwritten rule, things can get chaotic. Here is how officials typically view these plays, along with the rare exceptions where they will actually throw a flag:
