Dez was useless tonight. Of course some will say none of it was his fault. He was a big part of the loss tonight.

So let me remind you....

They were stacking the box with 8.....

They were shooting gaps.....

They were bringing pressure from everywhere....with the above said D

Our line completely blew assignments.....it's not funny really, WATCH THE TAPE! I think the only player I saw not completely whiff more than once was #70

Yeast you forget, with #9 facing the same type of pressure (though up the middle generally)....he fared equal, if not MUCH WORST in past games the like

Our playing calling & scheme, went out the damn window.....haven't a damn clue what they were trying or adjustments made. Again, have a look at the TAPE and see how damn covered our receivers were.....I know Dak missed one throw, but it was not for a TD-netted a 1st down(blitz was in his face from Tyron)

Dez.....clearly not his best game

Taking Zeke out on 3rd & short more than once.....I swear the coaches wanted us to lose--that being said--we missed so many blocks, LITERALLY didn't even touch them


You can put this on Dak or Dez......didn't have much help other than Zeke, Bease & TWILL here & there.....look at TWill TD, then see what we went completely away from

U G L Y......

I realize we lost, and it sucks, but it always amazes me how much vitriol there is toward pretty good players post-defeat.


Do you think Dez played a fantastic game?

Over all it was quite a stinker of a game. Hopefully it will serve as a wake up call. Pulling Zeke in critical times is really stupid too

Right here.

Well I'm not a Dez apologist, but I like him and glad to have him on this team. But he had a horrible game and there's no way around it.

But it doesn't change my mind.

He has talent and we are paying him a huge chunk of the cap to be a difference maker in games like today. Yes Dez sucked today (so did a lot of our other players). Hopefully Dez shows up in the future when we need him.

Why can't we use Dez in crossing slants? Dak knew the blitz was coming, gotta make quick throws like Roethlisberger and KCousins did against us.

Dez has always been a guy who has relied heavily on his natural ability. He's likely more physically gifted than 99% of the players who have ever lined up at WR. Unfortunately, he's not really well-versed in his craft and doesn't really play anything other than, "go get it", football.

The result is having a guy who makes these threads just as frequent as the, "Where are the Dez haters?", threads.

Next week someone will likely ask where OP is at. The week after that, the person who started that call out thread will be called out.

I want to see Dez excel. I am a Cowboys fan. But they aren't paying him top 3 wide receiver money to disappear in big games as often as he does.

i kno irvin got blasted for recently saying dallas needed to lose. i think its true. give me this loss now and not in the playoffs. last thing we need is to go in 15-1 and lay an egg + feeling unbeatable.

this loss will either wake them the F up or it will be the beginning of possibly a one and done.

No I think the entire offense including the coaches did poorly. Hopefully we let this humble us and get refocused. Dallas will have to listen to the haters say we are frauds and going to lose in the playoffs the rest of the year. Giving us fuel that we need as we play better as the underdog

I'm here....I apologize for Dez's fumble, Dak high throws, missed blocks, poor OC performance, Lucky walking around Dallas likes he's the BMOC.

I still believe!!!

The best read of the day. I completely agree.
