No sacks for Dallas, but NY gets a sack on first possession and a fumble recovery.
Hmmmmm

It’s my first stream…is the picture always shuttering like this?
Or maybe my internet is slow?

Different approach? Never saying anything positive is a difference approach? No, it’s a character flaw. Why you defending these turds?

Maybe because I don't think it's right to call other people turds. This is a message board where we have all kinds of different fans with all kinds of different viewpoints. I certainly don't agree with all of them, but that's still no reason to resort to childish name-calling and insults.

Why? It isn't like teams play consistently from week to week. One good game does not always mean the next one will be good. Dominos sometimes fall differently.

We blew out the Vikings. Doesn't mean the Vikings are in trouble.

49ers got whipped by two TDs by Atlanta. Doesn't mean San Fran is in trouble.

The Eagles beat the Colts by a point. Doesn't mean the Eagles are in trouble.

We've got our problems that we need to fix, but us losing to the Jags one week and the Jets beating the Jags the next week isn't that consequential.[/QUOTE

I mean we are trouble regardless.

Should that be a necessary request considering one of the teams that is playing is the team we just lost to? Comparisons are only natural. I can understand not wanting to turn it into another Dak thread or something like that, but I think we should be able to reference the Cowboys in relation to the Jags.

nfl game threads are an escape from the 500 other team threads.
Maybe a few general references but specifics or complaints should not be the place

I really want to see us go back to bringing Parsons up the middle some. A lot of teams are vulnerable to speed rushing up the middle, but we seem to mainly be content bringing him off the edge.

To be fair it is hard to label them. What would you call them?

No problem. Just wanted to understand what you were asking. This is a Cowboys site so naturally they are going to come up because that is many of ours point of reference.

I want to see us play other bigger DEs more and let him play some LB with occasional blitzes from various spots, and some fakes, where he pulls back into coverage after drawing attention that helps the other guys.

I don't see the need to call them anything. If you disagree with them, then state what your disagreement is without resorting to name-calling or insults. If you feel all you've got are insults or name-calling, then it's best to just leave it go.

That’s the problem these days. No accountability. Just let em get away with being losers. Maybe we should give the trophies?

What always amazes me is how well other teams play the RPO. Our ends seem to want to crash all the way every time

I don't have a problem with us bringing him on pressure a lot because he's our top pressure player. I just think we need to move him around more. We seem to fall into the habit of using him as an end, which makes it easier to offenses to figure out how to block him.
