Three things that the Cowboys need to do (other than Dak having a good game) to be contenders

[DStar22]

These are Three things I think they need to do to be contenders this playoff season:

1) Focus, and not beat themselves - do NOT make it harder for yourselves on offense by committing awareness penalties, like false starts.
2) FLY to the ball - the defense needs to FLY to the ball and hit the ball carriers. this causes tunovers. turnovers are our friends against other great teams.
3) CONTAIN CONTAIN CONTAIN - too many times we lose containment, on the QB, on the outside RUN and on the screen passes and 3rd and 7's or 8's become first downs on damn SCREEN passes. play SMART and watch your containment assignments

what do you all think?

My three are:

1. Win the LOS
2. Tackle well
3. No pre-snap penalties

Most games I wouldn’t care about stopping the run but this week it’s about stopping the run.

Dallas is a team that feasts on teams getting pass happy. 9ers won’t do that.

1st and foremost BLOCK SOMEONE

If the oline shows up we win.

 

[Oz-of-Cowboy-Country]

1)A good third down conversion percentage on offense.
2)A good third down denial percentage on defense.
3)Win the turnover battle.



It doesn't get any easier than that.
