We Have Ourselves A Defense

[AsthmaField]

It has been a long, long time since I’ve see a defense in Dallas like this. They’re really good and will continue to grow as the season goes on.

I’ve seen the Dallas D go whole games without a TFL or a sack. Now, I’m disappointed if they don’t have one on every drive.

Parsons is just unreal, the coverage is better than it has been since… I don’t know when, and the safeties are really good.

Keeping Brady and Burrow contained is incredibly difficult. When this defense isn’t facing one of the best QB’s in the league, they really will keep the score down. 19 to Brady and 17 to Burrow… in this offensive explosion era is just about impossible.

You don’t have to have an offense that is lighting it up as long as you have a defense like this one.

As a long time defensive guy… I have really missed this.

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

agreed

whats awful is we got moore-on destroying our chances .

 

[DanA]

Micah aside, it's a really even contribution with pretty much, everybody, doing their job on the defensive side of the ball. They don't look like giving up TD's.

This defense is gonna keep us in games until we get our footing on offense. Next week's game will determine if we are contenders or pretenders

I'll be honest, still not sold on this defense. Brady was missing 3 starters on his oline and Burrows was sacked 7 times last game and 6 times this game, he's on pace to get sacked 110 times. Parsons is a beast tho

thats a good thing

90s d were mostly a TEAM defense, have to have a war daddy then a bunch of players following his energy,

those that said this defense would be different without all the Turnovers were wrong., we are still a top defense,

 

[ClappingCarrot]

Yeah those Marinelli units gave me PTSD.

Swear I was gonna keep seeing Barry Church 5 steps behind Chase on a deep ball.

Plain and simple. If you keep teams under 20 points a game you have a great chance to win.

 

[MysteryIceGuro]

Lol, no we don’t.

Defensive line isn’t bad. Secondary is absolute garbage minus Donovan Wilson making a few saves here and there. Unless Trevon Diggs gets back on his interception streak, he’s not really a great asset.

Burrow’s line is known for being a self destructive bomb. Our line did not play good. Not this week, not last week. His line did not block him well. It’s not that our D-line was good, it’s that the O-line was bad. Simple as that. Do not get overworked on this.

 

[terra]

when they gave up the TD and 2 pointer to the Bengals, I thought it was once again another case of the Dallas D losing a lead in the final quarter.

Sure, but those teams olines are a big reason also they didn't score more than 20

 

[cowboyec]

diggsy with a helluva play.
this dedense can carry the load.
helluva job.

 

[charron]

This defense is fun to watch right now

Diggs made the game saving tackle. And came very close to jumping two balls this game. He'll get one on Daniel Jones next week.

And how can Burrow's OL be known for anything when it's an entirely different unit? You do realize only one of his linemen played in the Super Bowl?

 

[HungryLion]

I was particularly impressed they did with with zero turnovers today. If you would have told me the cowboys defense got 0 turnovers but only allowed 17 points. I wouldn’t believe you.

That’s a sign of a very good defense. When they can lose the time of possessions battle, not get any fluke turnovers and still hold a good offense to few points.

NO doubt the defense played great today. But that was the worst Oline in the NFL they destroyed.

 

[Pass2Run]

Bohanna had a nice game.

And Dorance, too.

Diggs is still the most underrated player on the team, and Anthony Brown.

Especially considering the offense didn't really do anything in the 2nd half.
