[BorneDawg]

The boys gotta figure out how to slow the screen game down

[defiantdog]

And tackle

[BorneDawg]

Yep

[BorneDawg]

These roughing passer calls are crap!

[BorneDawg]

Might as well put flags and quit all contact

[BeardoMSU]

Jason Garrett is such a great motivator! Always has the team ready to play!***

[OLJWales]

I've grown old of Jerry Jones. He's even admitted to being a pitiful GM. Even said publicly he would fire himself if he were an owner who's performed as miserably as he has done.

Been tired of his ass even before Dak got there. Now he's pissing me off even more. Sick of this shit..

On the positive side, he'll be the one who picks the next HC at Arky so his incompetence directly benefits State

[BorneDawg]

Wow we finally got a stop!

[HaggardDawg]

Chris Collingsworth was just talking about whether Daks contract talks have been a distraction to him and he says "he loves the game, he'll play for free. Endorsements are plenty and that's enough for him to recently buy his mom a house". Uhh Chris....

Yep. Heard it too. Wtf.

[BorneDawg]

Why is it many people don't give Dak credit? They all say well he has a great OL or it's because of Zeke. Well don't most of the great QB's benifit from having good players around them? I mean the OL doesn't always play that great.... I mean most of the great QBs thru the years have had help from good rb or recievers .....

[Bdawg]

Long, time consuming drive for MN to open the half. Thank goodness for only a FG

I believe because he was drafted fourth round and people just didn't think he would be a great QB although his numbers are some of the best. Doesn't make much sense at all though.

[BorneDawg]

Dak making some nice accurate passes!

[KOdawg1]

This Cowboys defense sucks

[Bdawg]

Yep. But Viking running through that defense like a wind through a screen door on that last drive.

Heard it also and thought WTF. Someone got to him during halftime and he profusely apologized. Also Jerry the Cowboys wear WHITE at home. This is the 3rd week we have worn Blue Jerseys.

[Commercecomet24]

Dallas defense sucks. The middle of their DL has been getting gashed since the rams playoff game, can't get off the field on third downs and just looks soft.

Yeah that front 4 not keeping anybody off the LBs. They look like they are steadily fighting off OL in the run game.

[Bdawg]

Elliot not eating much tonight either.

[maroonmania]

Elliot not eating much tonight either.

Yep, love how this 'great' OL ends up with 2nd and 9 after every first down Dallas run.

[NCDawg]

Difference is Minnesota can run the ball and Dallas can't.

[Bdawg]

Yep, love how this 'great' OL ends up with 2nd and 9 after every first down Dallas run.

Yep. Seems like when they face a solid DLine they can't get push anybody around.

[maroonmania]

Wish Cobb had scored. Dallas will never be able to run it in.

[Commercecomet24]

Exactly, me and my son were just talking about how the DTs don't do anything and their ol constantly getting to the second level on the lbs.

[Bdawg]

Big 77 has gotten his but whipped twice on this drive alone.

[maroonmania]

How in the world was that not a penalty on #22 for Minnesota? Dang, he tackled Witten before the pass got there.

[Commercecomet24]

Dallas is just to weak on the ol and dl to ever win a championship with this lineup like it is currently

[Bdawg]

Dang did whitten trip or get knocked down? That was about to be #4 for Dak.

[maroonmania]

He was essentially tackled in the end zone.

Some things never change. You got to win in the trenches

[Bdawg]

There's those stupid penalties that make 3rd and 2 instead of 3rd and 7

[Commercecomet24]

Some things never change. You got to win in the trenches

Yep Football is always about the los. Gotta control both sides to win

[Bdawg]

MN also keeping the ball away from Dallas. About 10 more mins in TOP right now. That hurts

[Bdawg]

Dak throwing a laser right there

[Bdawg]

Holding my breath on the OL holding call now.

[Bdawg]

Holy crap. I see giving it to Zeke once but hell no on the second

[maroonmania]

Dallas running a 2nd time to try and get that first down was just stupid. After getting nothing on 2nd and 2 they absolutely should have thrown twice. They haven't been able to run all night.

[Commercecomet24]

Dallas ol just isn't good. Second and 2 and you lose 3 yards on 2 plays. Awful

[Cooterpoot]

17ing terrible play calling end of game and bad defense. Dak was fantastic.

[parabrave]

Garrett you idiot. Dak is slicing up the D and you stop the momentum and give the ball to EE twice.

[Bdawg]

Dang the punt return had a huge lane up the sideline

[parabrave]

Where is Drew Pearson when you need him.

[mparkerfd20]

Cowboys suck.

[Cooterpoot]

Jerry going to be looking for two coaches this off season. 17 you Jerry Jones!

[ShotgunDawg]

Cowboys have to fire Garrett. That was absolute incompetent play calling on the 2nd to last drive.

[Mjoelner34]

IF they were going to run it on 3rd and 2, I would have had Dak keep it on the zone read.

[maroonmania]

Dang the punt return had a huge lane up the sideline

In hindsight it would have taken less time for the punt returner to run it up 15 to 20 yards than running multiple out patterns with the TE to get it closer. Dallas lost the game with the 2 running plays though when they had shown they couldn't run all night.

Bad play calling the last 2 minutes. Bad Defense. Bad loss.

[Bdawg]

Garrett, you freaking goofball of a coach. Dak tearing it up all night and Zeke getting stuffed and you take the ball out of your best playmaker's hands!!! And what happens? You get stuffed!! Twice!! Hope you love paying that man millions for crap like that, Jerry!! What an idiot! I bet Dak was like WTF after that play call!

This is it in a nutshell. Couldn't run all night so at the most crucial moment you run zeke twice. Just pathetic.

[KOdawg1]

Dak deserves better than this joke of a franchise that is owned by a joke of an owner that won't fire a joke of a head coach. This isn't fair to him at all.

And the Dak haters will point to the cheap INT he threw at the end of the game.

[Travelingdawg]

Time for Garrett to go.

[Cooterpoot]

Zero rushing first downs the whole game.

[parabrave]

Jerry might be emptying the bank next year to get Peyton out of New Orleans.

[KOdawg1]

Jerry might be emptying the bank next year to get Peyton out of New Orleans.

Or maybe Dak give Jerry the bird and sign with the Saints if Brees retires. Dak in Peyton's offense would be fun to watch.

[msstate7]

Jerry might be emptying the bank next year to get Peyton out of New Orleans.

Sean just signed a new 5-year extension

[MetEdDawg]

Dak didn't run the ball one time tonight. Cowboys didn't make the Vikings defense respect the QB keep not one time, and on a few option plays it was open.

Call an option keeper and at least make them think Dak will keep. Vikings sold out on Zeke every time and chased him down backside a ton, which is something the Cowboys couldn't do to the Vikings.

Bad play calling at the end and bad play calling to set it up. I thought for sure Dak would get a keeper on that 3rd and 2.

You can tell either Garrett or Jerrys back to calling the Offense, It has turned into a bland 1996 straight ahead gameplan. The Off gameplan and calling is unimaginative. Not one Bootleg pass tonight down by the goal. You took away an offensive weapon in Daks run ability by the goalline. That's just plain stupid.

[NCDawg]

Minnesota didn't seem have any problem running the ball. Elliot could get nothing. Hate to say it, but Minnesota is the better team.

[Dawgology]

I love Dak and the Cowboys but I?m starting to hope he opts to go to a team that knows how to utilize his abilities. Also, Zeke is the most overrated RB ever. He skipped out on preseason to get paid and now that he?s got paid he?s half-assing everything he does. Pathetic.

[Cooterpoot]

Dallas should’ve paid Dak and told Zeke to eat ****.

[ShotgunDawg]

I don't think Minnesota is the better team if the Cowboys were competently coached.

Dallas' QB and WRs are far superior to MN's

[Bdawg]

I think MN is much better in the trenches. They pressured Dak some and stuffed the run game. MN Oline whipped Dallas DL(especially at the tackles). Linemen got to the LBs all night long.

[dantheman4248]

Have it on good word that Garrett influenced those calls heavily. They weren't RPOs. They were hand it to zeke unless it's 8+ in the box. Dak still skittish i'm taking over and audibling out of obviously dumb decisions. Think one he gets his bag he'll be more secure in doing that. Also Dak apparently lit into Jason last night post game. If Jerruh is smart he sides with Dak and let's Jason go. Those two play calls were fireable offenses. 20 for 47 when you have a QB walking down the field and almost 400 yds. Just... wow.

Hope Dak has a better coach next year. He's proven it this year. Pay the man Jerry.

Well it looked just like a Garret move. I would be pissed too if I was Dak. And if I was Zeke, I would be pissed at that so called "great" offensive line.

[BulldogDX55]

Fire Garrett.

Make Dak Head coach and highest paid player in the league.
