F$ck Dallas! Game thread

[punch it in]

First place and we r gonna win the division. Djax absolutely destroyed us on one play. As for the playcalling Dallas has not blitzed this much all year and they bought the effing house. So unexpected. Couple horrible calls that killed drives too. I aint looking to burn anything down. We were supposed to win 6 games this year. Yall would have taken first place at 5-7 at this point so rest easy folks.

Dallas did to us what Haslet always seemed to do against Romo. He called an overly-aggressive scheme when week in and week out they are not known for being so. It always seemed to rattle Romo. Tonight it rattled Cousins. Now to Kirk's credit he did somewhat recover later in the game and started to hit some passes but the writing was nearly on the wall by that point.

You'd think after getting blitzed, oh say, 3 or 4 times, someone would go "hey, we better call a formation where we can have an extra blocker or two back by the QB" or "hey, maybe I should call this 3 step drop instead of a 5-7 step drop". I don't want to believe Gruden (or whoever is really calling the plays) is truly this painfully stupid, but I mean hey, if the shoe fits...

Well we did have two potential scoring drives stopped by the zebras. We had a blocked fg. I feel like we were adjusting after the initial shell shock wore off.

When did we have a blocked field goal? I missed that

I think he's talking about the one Hopkins pulled off to the right.

Mason Foster just might have found a home, great game.

Yeah ya know what? Almost everyone had us winning 6 games and saying if we showed growth they would be happy? Where is the happy? This team is waaaaay better than last year. Its not even close as a matter of fact. We would kick last years teams ass. Lol. A division crown which is still in our control is just a bonus.

Wasnt our missed fg tipped. I admittedly took my eyes off the game but i thought i heard it was tipped? Either way blocked or missed it should have been points

Um after the first couple drives that is what they did. That's why we halved our playbook midway through the 1st quarter.

They didn't even have to half the playbook. How about a hard count? Draw play? A bubble screen?

There's a lot of potential there but if letting Stan Lee be a one man wrecking ball against a line of 6 or 7 blockers, then you've got bigger problems that halving your playbook isn't going to solve.

With Jackson, Reed, Crowder, Garcon, and Thompson, we should be begging teams to blitz us. Absolutely begging. Instead we just fold like lawn chairs.

Every formation seemed to either have linemen at TE or everyone packed in together in bunch formation. Zero creativity.
