Dallas Week, Part 1

[calia]

Brown just put on IR. Out at least 4 weeks. A real shame, but we can’t count in him and it’s hard to imagine he’s back next year.

You know, I was just looking at the scores of Dallas games this season:

PHI 24
DAL 20

NYG 37
DAL 40

CHI 31
DAL 14

GB 40
DAL 40

NYJ 22
DAL 37

CAR 30
DAL 27

They've had some real clunkers -- they got thumped by the Bears and just lost to Carolina. Even the pathetic Jets put up 22 points on them, and the Giants -- whose offense isn't scaring anyone -- put up 37 on them.

Our offense needs to -- and should -- score 40+ points. If we can generate consistent pressure on Dak, we should win this game. Between that and pounding the rock and keeping Dak off the field, this feels winnable. But they've got to play with a sense of urgency. I like the comment I heard from DQ -- “It’s the kind of loss that pisses you off. Those can have some real meaning if you lean into it.”

They need to lean into it and take out the frustration on Dallas -- beating the crap out of them in their house would wash a lot of this stink off.
