Game Day Washington Commanders at Dallas Cowboys Postgame

[Starforever]

either way.. Washington should be embarrassed it took the last play of a second game against our backups to win a game they nearly went into overtime and split games with us but they played our backups twice no one could there's nothing to be bragging there is no bragging rights I don't even get Philly but at least Philly throttled us both games they have something to brag about if they wanna brag about beating backups but here in this league to me you gotta beat the starters in order to be bragging..

Agreed, it took Mariota to win the game.

Lance is hot garbage. Can only throw curl routes to the sidelines.

Dallas had the lead going into the last drive.

 

[Starforever]

He tackled the wrong guy on 4th down, but everybody was fooled. What can I say?

I blame Hooker for that Mariota run. He's still looking in the backfield, as the QB is running by.

Thanks for the info. I thought there had been a poll. I think I picked 13-4 as a hopeless optimist.

You going 13-4 next season?

Oh, ok I guess it doesnt help to have Mahomes and Brady? Lol sure.

people here think the QB hires the staff; does the drafting and FA and also does the offensive and defensive scheming

Do they though? I think they put you a huge distance towards the goal. The Pats are a great example of that with Brady gone now.

The NFL needs a draft lottery. At least 8 teams in my opinion started losing (tanking) on purpose after Thanksgiving.

I don’t think any team really tanked. They’re just that bad and other teams records exploded beating bad teams.

Only losers think that losing is acceptable. Or, worse, "strategic."

or strategic thinkers that understand when the season has long been lost.

 

[rambo2]

No to any Michigan D-Lineman

Lol, that wins dumb post of the day.

 

[SuspectCorner]

You caught me being hyperbolic, but it’s cruel to the fanbase that Lance was told to play the roll of a pocket passer in the red zone, when his speed could have made a difference

I guess the coaches thought that the shotgun formation would give Lance his best chance to ‘see’ the defense. There were several times I wished he’d pulled the ball back and rolled out to his right - looked like a lot of open field to exploit OR play action/improv. I can see why their confidence in him is limited. Dude is raw.

 

[Risen Star]

Spooky.

It's a philosophical disagreement. I don't believe in losing games on purpose, under any circumstances. Or permitting players to think such is acceptable. Once they're used to it, it becomes part of a negative team culture.

That liufau. Just made a bad read

No Michigan defensive players ever again!

 

[chuck520]

That liufau. Just made a bad read

Liufua blew the game, its his fault all he had to do is make the tackle. Overshown could make that tackle. Liufau is a bust.

 

[chuck520]

Dallas had the lead when Lance went to the sideline. The defense blew it. No one expected Tom Brady in waiting.

Defense has to figure out how to stop the zone read
I notice
1) we cant run it
2) we cant stop it
doesnt say much for this crap coaching staff

Is Trey Lance ready to be a "star" in the XFL??

If I was him, I'd probably sign with an XFL team to get some playing time and see if I could drive up my market value. He may never turn out to be a quality NFL player, but he really needs to play if he's ever going to get there.

He can only be a good tailback, never be a good QB

Micah tackled the right guy. He played his key and hit the RB in the backfield. Liufau was responsible for the QB.

And it wasn't that long ago before Mayfield was a bad QB or Darnold. Some of these guys just need time before they figure out the game on this level. They also need to be put in the right circumstances.
