You say 1 more touchdown than the Cowboys like it meant we were scoring touchdowns all day. We didn't. We scored one touchdown in 3 actual red zone attempts, and the other field goals were from close enough to the redzone that we should've scored. 1 touchdown a game is not a recipe for success. True, if we had made that field goal it would've changed the game, but at the end of the day, if you score touchdowns, you don't have to settle for field goals. Let's not act like we're some offensive powerhouse in the red zone.

Like I said earlier last week. No matter how many pro bowlers they have or injuries they have AND no matter how many pro bowlers we have or wins we have, its a rivalry game, and throw out the records because it goes down to who does better with the ball when it matters most. This game clearly was anyones game.

Our Defense played great. Our Offense did not. There offense was horrendous. Their defense was great + they have an unblockable all pro OLB who will play better at home than at our place. Our coaches got a reality check after tonight. Our players got a reality check after tonight, especially on offense. And our fanbase got a reality check after tonight. Its over. We can't replay this game. We have a loss. We're not going undefeated, Oh well. Regroup get a gameplan going for St. Louis, don't trash talk until we're a scary good team. Its one game for Rex.

Rob Jackson and LaRon Landry both lit up Tony Fiametta on that one run in the fourth quarter.

The only problem was Fiametta didn't have the ball, Felix Jones did. And we don't have anyone who can hit Jones in the open field.

Felix Jones rushed for 117 tonight. Holy crap that couldn't happen without missed assignments at the line. Physically, we dominated them up front. But if you don't know your assignments, all that weightlifting is a waste of time.

I agree 100%

Jackson was particularly bad imo, it's like he wasn't even thinking about the possibility of felix getting the ball.

My question is why doesn't Zo get in the game after Rak goes out?

[skinsfaninok]

REX GROSSMAN - Off all night, had a couple nice throws but thats it.. HORRIBLE INT to LEE and of course he fumbles when game is on the line... I like Rex and think he's better than Beck but CMON MAN.

KYLE SHANAHAN- Bad play calling in the 2nd half for sure, no attempt to run at all SMH

D-HALL- Shut down Bryant all nite until.........

The whole team for not beating a Half Ass Dallas team.. BAD BAD loss

[Defensewins]

Crash landing back to reality. Grossman is not and should not be a professional athlete. Orakpo, drink your damn gatorade you.....
We lost to a very injured and weakened Dallas team. Their center has premature snap. Four times! Embarrassing. How did we lose that game?

[skinsfaninok]

Had we not botched a F ing kick we would have won

[skinsfaninok]

key word, Ware.

and what was that, one time?

I know this is a smackdown thread, but how good was our defense independent of their blown assignments? Jason Garrett, a former QB and hired offensive mind, chose to punt a very make-able 4th and 7th because he didn't have a play to get seven yards.

That's mind boggling. You have Tony Romo, Jason Witten, Dez Bryant, and Felix Jones on the same field and you don't have a play that can get you seven yards? You're being dominated.

Before we vilify Haslett for being figured out by the sixtieth call, consider how dominant he was schematically in the first 59. The offense just has to do more than it has the last two weeks, or we can't finish above .500.

More Helu, less Hightower? That's the first change I would make.
