Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

Great day all around folks!

POSITIVES = EVERYTHING AND EVERYBODY on this team. There is no complaints at all, one big play from Cooper and that's it.

Defense was dominant and it's time to start taking them seriously.

AG would win the Rookie of the Year on Offense if it wasn't for Herbert balling out like he is. The dude is a BALLER!

Terry did his thing like always and made a tremendous play to save a TD!

Kudos to Alex for managing the game and playing solid , he's still rusty but I think he'll be ok (god forbid injury). Team still needs a young QB but they will figure that out.

Ron and his staff did a great job today, the trick plays didn't work at all against us.

Games balls for:

Gibson
McLaurin
Thomas
Barber
OL
Young
Settle
Allen
Sweat
Reaves
Fuller
Moreland
Hopkins
Way

This is what I envisioned at the beginning of the season when I predicted playoffs and everyone laughed.

This are some changes I would like to see moving forward:

Bench Apke, start Reaves. Reaves was a playmaker last year and had a great game today.

Bench Darby and start Moreau or Moreland instead

Activate AGG let's add another weapon and see what he has.

Keep running the ball and include Barber more like today, he made many key 1st downs.

OL has been playing great for a while now, they don't get enough credit

Forgot to add Sharpe and Moses, Sharpe he held his own and Moses I think is playing better on the left side and has been solid.

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

Terry McLaurin on his chase down: "I was just trying to make a play. But when the defense got that stop is when I felt, Wow that was a big play. That's what you've gotta do when you're a leader on the team. You have to set an example and never give up on any play."

He easily a better coverage safety than Collins. The way Collins tackled this year, Curl been better in that department too

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

We won a National televised game and had a pretty good officiating crew despite missing the Lawrence offside. I think this has been the best officials in a while.

Watching the game again, Reaves had a hell of a game. He stopped Ceedee lamb twice, prevented him from getting a 1st down and broke up the possible TD catch.

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

Wow what a great performance!

The biggest thing that stuck out to me about this game was our backs. Gibson is a baller. But combining him with Barber and McKissic is nice triumvirate. Love the play calling today, and Alex Smith looked good. Honestly don't think he saw Jaylon Smith on the int.

Dline looked great. We really have something with Sweat and Young. Love Young on the sideline also. Kid really wants to win.

Absolutely loved this game!!!

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

you know who I don't miss? AP and Collins! Our 3 RB's have been really good. I can not believe that McKissic was out on the street for anyone to sign. He is an outstanding player. Much better than I thought he was and he is durable. Barber also just gets tough yards and finishes runs. And Gibson is just getting better every week.

As far as Collins, these young guys make mistakes but at least they stick their nose in there to make a tackle. Collins wasn't even doing that. He got paid and checked out.

I would cut Collins next year and use that money on Allen, Scherff.

66-19 for the season sweep. Very Happy Thanksgiving y'all!

On to Pittsburgh!

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

Basking in this beat down. FU Jerruh. Loved when the camera focused on you when we went up 34-16. Palpatin lookalike that you are.

This all does make me wish we hadn’t blown the two games v NYG and Detroit. 7-4 would feel a lot better. But let’s see what they can do with the rest of the season. Great team win.

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

Great W ! Beat Dallas, take the lead of this shitty division, love it !

I also loved that Darby made the 4th and short deflection shortly after getting beaten on the TD (you know the fir... wait they only scored one haha F them!) and then made another big play on 3rd and 11 later in the game, after getting flagged for PI.

I love when a DB keeps his head in the game after making mistakes.

I hated the announcer for saying contact was early on the 4th and short, STFU that was a text book perfect DB play !

Overall great team win but the thing I liked the most was that D finally looking like what we thought it could !

I know Dallas lost some guys on OL but I don't give a damn, nobody cared about our injuries, and it's not like we hadn't had our fair share of OL shuffling, even this year !

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

Also, I wasn't raised in a religious family but I like signs, and Kerrigan being the first to greet Sweat after his strongly look alike 9 years later pick 6 was a very good sign for the future of this D !

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

It was a latish game UK time and I wasn't feeling 100% last night so decided to get up this morning and watch instead (day off anyway). That made my Friday!

That was on the whole complete football. Yes the Cowgirls are a bit beat up, yes they lost 2 starting OL. But we had their O pretty much contained all game and that 2nd half!

My keys are:

Came out in 1st Q like we were going to work. Aside from that 1st drive we only punted once more.
We pressured Dalton all game long with mostly 4 man rush. I kind of wished JDR blitzed more so we could get more sacks! :)
Running game carried us so much we didn't need to force the ball deep; why take an unnecessary risk? Yes I'd like to see more deep passing, but I'll take nearly 200y on the ground all day long.
Hell, even Apke made a good play ;)

Bad? Smith's INT was a bit meh, I think he was throwing it away but he didn't see Smith. Darby's 2 bad plays (DB's are coached not to look back for the ball if out of step with the WR!), but then he had some solid plays to counter. And it was Amari Cooper after all.

We're going to have to lean on that rushing attack and D a lot against the Steelers; their pass rush is scary. Come out the blocks like we did last nght.

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

Per PFF, Kemren Curl recorded his best grade of the year...grades aren’t posted yet.

This dude is legit. Moving on from Collins should be a priority for this team

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

Wtf was Mike M thinking on 4th and inches? He has Elliot and went with a drop back pass? That was such a terrible call. Just call a sneak. Dallas' staff is just garbage. Mike Nolan sucked when he was coaching here 20 years ago. I don't get that hire.

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

Nice game , it was fun seeing Jerry stew for once . Congratulations.

In his last five games, RB Antonio Gibson is averaging 5.36 yards per carry.

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

Dallas only scored one offensive TD against Washington in two games, this season.

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

BTW, props to Morgan Moses who has done very well l in a different position. If Lucas is back v Pitt, I hope he stays at LT.

I will also as soon as the rebranding is done. Whatever the decision, I hope we know for 2021. I loved his post game interview - happy to beat Dallas and sweep them and to be leading the division, but they haven’t won anything and have a lot of work to do to build on this. McLaurin is simply awesome. His rundown of Smith probably turned the whole game.

Defense folks

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

Stephen A is insufferable, but his mocking of the Cowboys in defeat is pretty great. This was such an enjoyable win.

Given the remaining schedules, we really have to beat Philly, Carolina, and a depleted SF to be assured of anything more. Pitt and Seattle will be tough games. I hope Pitt wins this week (Lamar Jackson just tested positive for Covid) and they come to our game feeling overconfident. Doesn’t hurt to dream.

Gibson and McLaurin are big time. Cannot say enough good things about both of them.

Meh. That belief is generally fan speak.

Re: Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame
 

Per Keim:

DT Tim Settle has been ultra-productive. Tied for 3rd among DT's with 5 sacks. He's done that in 225 snaps. Tied with David Onyemata (332 snaps). Trails Chris Jones (5.5/434 snaps) and Aaron Donald (9/524 snaps)... Settle is a really good fit in the 1 gap system. Really good.

I agree. Moses at LT has been one of my biggest (and most enjoyable) surprises for this team so far this year. With Trent gone, and uncertainty at LT to begin the year, Moses’ play at LT so far has been great, and a direct reflection in an improvement in the offense to pair with the return of Alex. Everything seems to be coming together. Just sorry it didn’t happen sooner. Let’s hope we can keep up the momentum and maybe shock some Steelers and/or Seahawks fans. Those two games will be the real litmus test for us.
