I almost feel less confident than I did last week with the whiners coming to town.  Defense is a complete disaster right now and the offense has to put up at least 30+. Zero faith in the OC. Coming to the realiztion birds will be lucky to host a wildcard game and that's it. 

I really hope this complete abomination of the senior citizen/panzy ass secondary and what ever you want to call this LB corps (even when "healthy") keeps Howie up at night.

Good news everybody

QuoteFRISCO, Texas -- Two days after surgery to remove his appendix, Dallas Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy is back at The Star and said he plans to be on the sideline calling plays Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles.

"I feel good and anticipate everything staying normal Sunday night," McCarthy said on his scheduled conference call Friday.

Good f'ing God!

Quoteuntil the third quarter Sunday night in Dallas, it was the last time the Eagles' defense stopped somebody. The 49ers scored touchdowns on their next six drives and only failed to reach the end zone when they took a knee on their final possession. Then the Cowboys opened this game with TD, FG, TD, TD on their first four drives before finally punting with 12 minutes to go in the third quarter. So that's 10 straight drives an opponent scored on the Eagles – nine touchdowns and one field goal - and that's just inexcusable.
Title: Re: Week 14 - Dallas?
Post by: Eagaholic on December 11, 2023, 03:07:06 AM
You have to give some credit where credit is due. Dallas is tough, and if Mike McCarthy can keep getting his appendix taken out before games they may have found a way to not choke in the playoffs.
Title: Re: Week 14 - Dallas?
Post by: Don Ho on December 11, 2023, 04:31:13 AM

AJ and Smith don't fumble, Hurts doesn't fumble, Smith doesn't go Ricky Watters on us, different game?  Maybe they only get 3 more FG's, who knows but possibly left 21 poits out there.  I would feel a little better had they lost by one score but they looked sloopy, unfocused, sleep walking.

Title: Re: Week 14 - Dallas?
Post by: PhillyPhreak54 on December 11, 2023, 07:41:25 AM
I'm not even mad this morning. End of a rough stretch - and all teams have hiccups throughout their seasons. SF lost three in a row. Dallas lost to Josh Dobbs and Arizona (and will likely drop 1/3 or 2/3 in their BUF/MIA/DET stretch).

Sirianni has been good and organizing them when shtein gets tough. So this is another test. But yeah - if the fumbles don't happen and/or Smith and AJ don't miss their catches by an inch it is likely a different game.

Oh well. Get it together this week and go handle biz in Seattle. Knock off the Cards and the Giants and be done with it.
Title: Re: Week 14 - Dallas?
Post by: Diomedes on December 11, 2023, 07:51:37 AM
I quit at halftime.

I don't like the offensive playcalling this season.  Far too many big, long developing plays.  Not enough of Swift, and not enough quick shots to a skill player and see what he can do with it...all is on Jalen but it's a team game. 

Why do the Eagles use so little motion?  Can Jalen just look at a D and intuit their package?  No evidence that he can...

Defense is abysmal but injuries and a poor LB corps made that predictable. 
Title: Re: Week 14 - Dallas?
Post by: PhillyPhreak54 on December 11, 2023, 10:15:55 AM
Agreed.

The long developing plays are an issue. Jalen has the longest release time in the NFL and that is why - because he's got to sit and wait. And when the pressure comes, the OL is showing some cacks, he's backpedaling and not stepping up.

They abandoned the RPO game that was so successful. The lack of motion is frustrating because not only does it show defensive stuff it schemes people open (look at SF).

Its a boring mundane non-creative offense.
Title: Re: Week 14 - Dallas?
Post by: General_Failure on December 11, 2023, 10:28:57 AM

Only silver lining to all of this is with these high expectations, the Cowboys will choke at some point.  Likely not to us, but will still feel good.
