Actually rechecked game log it was only 1 other call that cost us so only 14 pts off stupid decisions may or may not have mattered you just don’t know how a game is going to progress every decision matters
that said within the context of our original conversations it’s all of the things that keep costing the cowboys injuries, bad calls , questionable coaching decisions, no preseason , new system in my opinion all of those things are why we sit at 3-8
our talent on defense has to get better or this will continue . It’s been like this since Romo and this year is on pace to eclipse his historically bad defense of 2008 or maybe it was 2013 I’ll have to look it up going off memory here
Other then say the fake punt on 3 points, you cant really blame the calls on a defense just caving in every time. Defense was getting mauled late in the game. It wouldnt have mattered if they were 30 yards out or 70 yards out. They couldnt stop anyone.
Defense, we all agree. And thats EXACTLY why you need to start rooting for losses so we have our pick of the first defensive player off the board come the draft. Whether thats a linebacker, corner, DL, ect...ect.... And you certainly want to grab one of those guys that just falls out of the first round on day #2 at the top of the 2nd round.
The higher the pick, the more options to trade back. If we get a top 5 pick we may be able to trade back to 10, still pick up a great corner and get an extra 2nd round pick for our troubles. Now you are talking about a top 10 pick, and two high 2nd rounders. Now you are talking 3 day one starters.
Starterting to get excited yet? Start rooting for losses. Its not like 1/3 of these clowns including Dalton are going to be on this team or have a major role past this year. What do you care if the guy gets beat up or throws 3 picks? Its not a reflection of what next years team is really going to be like anyway.
