Why the Cowboys Run D failed against the Bills

[nightrain]

No that’s your spin ,how Did the O do the first 3 quarters 3 points and a lot of 3 and outs. It’s a cumulative effect. I think the game plays out differently if they score a few points in the first half. I’m not absolving the D but we’ve seen this before it’s been this way for 2 years. For the D to play to its strengths the O has to put up points even the announcers remarked on it. It’s a passing points league now so that’s why the the team was built on the premise of the high scoring O and the D attacking the QB with the pass rush, unfortunately it didn’t happen this game. The OP can whine all he wants but this is nothing new against balanced Offense teams.

It is you that is spinning the issue. Most of us can see it was a complete breakdown of all three phases in Buffalo.

• No containment
• No gap integrity
• Hero ball
• No assignment responsibility
• Undersized
• Lack of aggressiveness
• Lack of accountability

It's not so much the scheme that ails this Cowboys Defense, folks. It was everything posted above, and the tape proved it.

PS: Dan Quinn is as much responsible for creating a Defense with quicker but lighter, smaller, hybrid type of players who struggle or get overwhelmed by bigger and more aggressive Offenses like the Bills, 49ers, Eagles, etc.

that was horrible display of run defense. couple of plays the defenders just walked by the RB and totally missed him. that was horrible. Quinn should have switched to armstrong, mazi, odizi and lawrence and move Parsons to OLB on the strong side. sacrifice pass rush for run defense. specially when you see them getting gashed like they were. we had zero gap discipline in this past game. horrible

This thread is only about the D. Keep your Dak hate out of here. That's the only reason you brought up the O.

You only come out to bash the D after a bad game didn’t hear a peep the 5 game before that. You’re a defensive hater, and folks can respond any way they like and mods police the board not a wannabe mod. Bye the way have a safe and merry Christmas

This Defense is built to stop the pass and play from ahead. When the offense disappears the Defense has trouble with the run. Simple as that you playing it’s the D fault excuse when the O did nothing

then this defense was built wrong. you are not going to have the lead in every game to force the other team to pass pass pass. sometimes in close games the opposition is going to run a balance offense. the very first series, they rushed for 58 yards...that set the tone for the day. even their coach said, we saw the run working, it never stopped working, so why get away from it. you give up 250+ rushing yards you are going to lose 999 out of 1000 times

You are correct the D was possibly built wrong but it’s the D MM approved and is happy with. I’ll wait till it’s all said and done to see how the rest of the season goes before condemning either unit.

Didn’t you read your buddy’s post no Dak allowed in this thread you may be on the naughty list now. Merry Christmas be safe

This is a down hill play with a lead defense. It is not a tight game smash mouth defense. Good OLs and running games are bad news for this defense.

See? All Daks fault. Defense sucked because of Dak.

Keep your sexual fantasy innuendo off of this thread, forum and website, Austin boy.

Is that you, @MountaineerCowboy ???

You certainly are using the same words and analogies. Makes one wonder if you're not the same person with illegal split accounts?

Bah humbug!

The truth hurts doesn’t matter who’s the messenger, but in your delusional world the refs, NFL, media all out to get Dallas. Hopefully you get that Dak doll to play with and your obsession of excuses will stop.Maybe you and Rocky can play together if he brings his own doll.

Nah, spoil Christmas for AC and send a Romo doll because AC is jealous of Romo because he was and probably still is 10 times the QB that AC and Rockport worship.

(oh no, i forgot, I'm a troll, I need to root for the eagles, i'm not a real cowboy fan and a romosexual, and many other insults). Man, I already know what is coming!

Truth? The only truth here is you turning a thread focused on our run Defense into blaming Dak and the Offense. Nobody mentioned the Offense, the refs, the NFL or media except for you. This is what happens when your Dak hate consumes you.

Meh. I would reply in kind, but you would complain to the mods once again.

Conspiracy theories is your posting past history, along with everyone else on the team is a jag. My reply never blamed anyone but you are to narrow minded to understand the point, 3 points through 3 quarters doesn’t do much to help the D. I don’t hate or dislike Dak he’s a good QB nothing more nothing less. Do you have any other replies to post that you don’t understand than, get lost, find a new team, troll, hater, you can fill in the rest of your insults you use. Just have lmao with folks like you

I would reply to you but AC thinks I cry to the mods which I have never done, not even once, so it's just AC imagination running wild because I don't polish our QB's shoes.

Of course the defense is going to get gashed when they are on the field after three and outs all the time...what do you expect.
