Fuck Dak Prescott. 

Hope he has a blood clot on the flight home. 

Are you blind?  That bounced off the receiver's arms and into a dude's hands...... How is that on the QB?

Fuck you Dak and your multiple picks a game garbage ass

Again.  Low vision?

This is a defensive loss..... we have not been playing well enough defensively lately beyond the Vikes.

 

Eagles won, the 1 seed was getting out of reach anyway.  Securing the 4 seed is a thing I guess but who cares honestly when the team being what it is. 
4 seed? No. Top 4 seeds are division winners. We will be 5 seed at best

I don’t remember a time in the last 20 years dallas was faced with a win and your in type bullshit and they actually win 

Texans and Cowboys lose on long OT TDs within minutes of each other. 

Texans QB fumbles, KC scores on the next offensive play. 

Cowboys lose on Pick 6 where the pathetic WR should've caught the damn ball , hit him on both arms.  Can't blame Dak for that. 

Edited by Make em eat Taco Bell

Should have lost last week and now this shit show.  McCarthy is a loser.

They can still get 5 and go to Tampa. That was the realistic scenario coming into today, anyway. 

Can someone please, please cut Noah Brown???

the qb should throw it to the HANDS not the arms

That deep pass on 3rd with 1:30 left was the reason we lost.  Without the TO the Jags lose.  Period.
Fuck Moore for calling that play, McCarthy for not overruling it and fuck Jerruh for hiring them

I can guarantee you that wasn’t the first read. At all. I agree that play ended up losing it but it’s not on the call.

always blame the QB for a bad defense, that's the Surly way.

Dallas should have HFA in the wild card, then have to win 2 games on the road to make it to the Superbowl. 

I believe division winners still get higher seeding, regardless of record.

Sure it wasn't..... I think folks are more questioning throwing at all rather than running and forcing the timeout.

My issue was the first down call.... just horrid, they had been crashing their DEs all fucking game.  If you call it, you tell Dak to really look at keeping, otherwise, I hate going sideways on those type of plays.

 

This team was already the Cowboys under Jerry so they were not gonna do anything of note but now the defense is pretty injured all over the place so clinch that 5 seed and let old man Tom do his thing.

yes, so Dallas will only have 1 home game maximum in the playoffs, right? 

McCarthy ain’t the answer either. But it’s Dallas they will lose first round anyway 

Injuries on defense have made this defense a shell of what it was at the start of the season. They're playing Nashon Wright and Kelvin Joseph now. 

Lining up Parsons constantly at end is stupid and has worn him down and makes the defense much more predictable than it was when he was at LB and moving to end in certain packages. He could also blitz and move around to pick weak spots in the line to rush into. 

Back to the usual Cowboys situation where the offense has to overcome a weak defense and win games. We know how that ends.

They won’t have any unless somehow they meet a lower seed in the NFC championship (I laughed typing that last part)

Probably none as a wild card. First game on the road. 2nd game on the road unless the other 2 wild cards upset the division winners and the Cowboys are the 2nd highest seed left after the Eagles. 

Most likely zero home games.

Yes, if Dallas can hold onto 5 it’s possible they get one home game in the playoffs. That would be the maximum.

you guys are right, i had my brain on baseball, still hungover with the Stros in my head.  

This team is built to lose.  From the top down.

I have no problem throwing it. Play to win the game. And the 1st down call got 5 or 6 yards. The problem is the QB is anti-clutch. He is a mid-tier QB that is inaccurate and cannot put a team on his shoulders. The first pick is what cost us the game. It was a terrible pass.

Actually it isn’t the lining him up at end that is the problem. It’s all the extra snaps and eating guards etc he is doing playing LB because the rest of the LBs suck and he can’t come off the field like most true rush ends do in this league.

He probably adds 20 snaps a game at LB he wouldn’t be adding if he was truly doing what most other guys like Miller, Donald, Garrett etc do.

Fish rots at the head.

MM is a dumb MF. How do you not make them use all their timeouts when you are under 2 minutes

Classic Dallas loss. Playing a mediocre-to-bad opponent and get dominated in 4Q. Multiple opportunities to put the game away, on defense AND offense , can't get it done. This team is such a paper tiger, folds under any adversity.

 

tell me the story again about the 3 HoFers on the Cowboy OL and they do a 3 and out when trying to ice the game late after their D produced a turnover.

It's all fucking fool's gold.

 

If you’re going to throw, throw on second down, imo. Something safe. Maybe bootleg with the option to keep if the throw isn’t there. A first down wins the game more surely than making them use the timeout.

Jerry Jones

Since he ran off jimmy. He’s the only constant

This is so simple, and so intelligent.  Not a chance an NFL head coach will go for it.

Well we're using the same logo.  Maybe that's the problem.

First round exit, here we come. Team isn't designed to do any more. At the absolute best, we beat a bad NFC South. Been this way forever now. It will never end until the front office changes their approach to building a team.

Another game where we blew a 14 pt lead. And actually this was 17. Remember they told us no way it happens again lol. I think Parsons said it.

Noah Brown absolutely has to catch that ball. It might have been a tad short but I think his momentum carries him to a 1st.

There's a reason why this team went out and got a WR.



500 yards to Jacksonville. 

Bad offense. Bad defense. Bad special teams. Bad coaching. 

Michael Irvin in his prime isn’t saving this team at this point. 

They folded like a cheap hooker who got hit in the stomach by a guy with sores on his face after Joseph gave up the long TD up 17. 

We need the win against Eagles to go into the playoffs with momentum. Fuck going into the playoffs with a bad losing streak.

If you commit to getting the first down, call plays for it. Not two obvious runs to make it 3rd and long. 
 

if you commit to burning clock and/or timeouts, run it 3 times and if you get a first down hey all the better. 
 

if you commit to a pass play on 3rd and 10, it should be known that you only throw it if it’s a high likelihood of completion, otherwise you run or just get down. 
 

Two runs followed by a pass play that ended up a low percentage deep ball is not how you should be working that series.

No it didn’t, it lost 2-3 yards putting us behind the sticks.  You have to run on 2nd putting us in 3rd and 10.  So you have to pick up 10 to get a first.  I’m not sure of the exact stats but going to guess 3rd and 10, our offense is under 40% on converting passes….. just like everyone else.  
 

When trying run out the clock, first down is the most important.  You need positive yardage while protecting the ball to keep all calls potentially on the field.  Moore didn’t do that… he played it like a standard first and got punished for it.  Bad play calling.  

We deserved that loss. We earned it when the defense got us the ball back with a minute left and the offense couldn’t do anything to finish the game.
