This new offense is apparently taking time for the offense to get use to. I expect to see better play from the offense going forward getting better and better as the year goes on. The OL hasn’t played together for a couple of years now. They need time to gel.

As for the defense they came out the gates firing on all cylinders but have regressed as of late. Quinn is too good of a DC to let this continue.

The team is surely hearing the soft talk. Will they man up and take responsibility and do something about it? I think they will.

Many have given up. I admit after the Niners game I came close. But I think the team has the talent. They just need to clean up the penalties and learn how to play under this new offense.

I'm concerned about this offense, if we come out after the bye week still with the same issues, it's gonna be another quick exit in the playoffs....ya huurd meh?

No we don't. I'm not trying to be a killjoy, but we really don't have better football ahead of us. If it happens, great, but our front office isn't concerned. The one comment that I hate whenever I see it comes to mind. We like our guys. It's 100% true. They don't actively try to compete.

The Cowboys have two teams clearly better than them. What do they do? Nothing. Their focus is popularity and making money, not winning championships. The Cowboys won't be contenders this year either.

It’s easier to predict the worst.

When is the last time two teams met in back to back super bowls? Was it just the Cowboys and Bills?

As tough as our schedule looks I’m not sure we have better football ahead of us. This new offense better start getting on track quick, especially in the redzone or we’re going to struggle to win 10 games.

Hopefully, there is better football ahead for the Cowboys. On paper, they have the talent to play better.

Beating the Rams is crucial. After that they still have two games against the Commanders, another against the Giants, and one against Carolina. Barring any more upsets that's nine wins, so I'm sure they can beat enough of the tougher teams left to get past ten.

Show it. In January. Everything else is just the usual bla bla we're getting for so many years now.

It's not about giving up or being a homer. It's about what has taken place in over 27 straight years and what has not. As for now this team hasn't shown anything to prove their history wrong. They can rack up all the regular season wins they want, it means nothing.

So let's wait til January and see what they've got. Then it's back to zero and anything can happen. But until then we can only observe this trainwreck of a team beating up the little guys and leave the field with their tails between their legs when a real contender comes to town. With the occasional owning of a division foe. Can't do anything else right now from a fan's perspective.

I wouldn’t be marking down any wins for the Cowboys. Even the game against Carolina isn’t a safe bet. Chances are we’ll play down to them and that could end up being a tough game, plus that game is on the road and you can’t fool around on the road. Both of our losses this season were on the road. The Cowboys are the only team Arizona has beaten this season.

Final record.

Big Mike shows he is the same play caller as he was in GB. It will be his undoing.
