Turnovers, dropped balls Drive killing machines

[Whirlwin]

Make no mistake about it. You turn the ball over twice because of fumbles. You dropped the ball on 3rd down. That's how you lose football games no matter who you're playing

Also badly timed penalties (whether or not it was a poor call by officials) that kill any kind of momentum on a drive.....

Without a doubt. We lost this game on offense. The entire offense. Which was a good thing. Because defense played well enough to win

Yes absolutely. You hold a team to 12pts, you should win. The offense as a whole did not play well. Theres no one person to blame like others on this board tend to suggest.

Are we not allowed to mention Dak missing Cobb in the end zone on the very first drive causing us to settle for 3

And those were BIG fumbles. Don’t say dropped passes though because the Dak haters think he is throwing lawn darts and the wideouts can’t help it.

That Cobb drop hit him right in the hands. Another big play in that game.

 

[Whirlwin]

Maybe to us. LOL I would like to think so. But not after reading everything I've been reading the last 2 days

Absolutely. You can't miss an open receiver in the end zone no matter how much scrambling you had to do prior to throw

We had three drops on third down.

. But it wasn't the point I was trying to make. Turnovers will kill you. Penalties will kill you. Dropped footballs will kill you. Inaccurate throws will kill you. But quarterbacks aren't always on target. And players will fumble. And receivers will drop footballs. But it's when it happens that really is the Killer. 4th Down fumble. Disasterous

And the lack of Red Zone efficiency is not, I respectfully disagree

I don't think I understand what you're saying

Sucks that we only lost by 2 points with those fumbles and missed TD connection to Cobb.

Cowboys play a smidge better and that’s a win in the bayou.

That was Garrett's fault. His clapping distracted Dak!

 

[ESisback]

Playing against a good team looking for revenge, in their house. Add two fumbles, three drops, and two SERIOUSLY bad calls...and we STILL only lose by two!

The sky is falling.

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

If they didn't get penalized, didn't get intercepted, & had brees ...

what a great 'what if' game !

Dak said so himself. He was mad at himself in the presser because he knew he had made that throw many times before

What were the 3 drops? I agree Cobb's on 3rd was a drop....
