Also I feel like it's shameful to admit, but I'm low-key a Trey Quinn fanboy now. If his TD celebration is at all like his 5 yard gain celebration, we are in for a treat.

He is rolling but they also have played 2 bad defenses of late. Our D is a top 10 all around. I dont think we shut him down like the first game but I don't see him going for 150 either

This is not true. As of now, we are:

5th in scoring D (credit where it's due, they can move the ball against us through the air but we stiffen up at the goal line)
15th in total yards
6th in rushing D
24th in pass D

I'm going off PFF grading but overall stats wise the only thing that matters is points and yes we are top 10 there too

5th in scoring 6th in rush. Those are the two that matter for this game. Dak isnt putting 400 yards through the air on us like in our losses. When we have played run centric teams our d has been stifling.

The only way we lose this games is if we beat ourselves.

The reason most are picking Dallas is because CM is starting but as long as he doesn't turn it over we should be ok

The only way we lose ANY game is if our run game isn't working and our defense collapses. They carry us in our wins and expose our weakness when they don't. (which is passing)

you mean WAS passing. #InColtTheBoltWeTrust

Sigh... I hope he shows up to play the rest of the way. Hope for the best.

We haven't seen what McCoy can do for our passing yet. Hopefully he can kick start it, but I really think he and Alex are about on par with what kind of QB they are. (game managers) I think Alex has better ball security than McCoy but we'll see.

Security may be a separating factor, I hope it is not. And IMO I think we saw quicker decision making some of the time which plays to Colt being in this offense for a long time now. I am hoping that is the deciding factor on him playing well and elevating the offense a bit. We need the O line to protect him and Jay to call a better game than I'd usually expect... and just maybe, colt the bolt will be alright.

Ya know, gotta account for shit reffing and league agendas, though, too.

One thing to me stood out from last week....Colt to Reed is ALOT better than Alex to Reed.

Like the stronger connection there...Reed is pivotal to our passing attack. He's a must get involved every game weapon.

They're not on par. Colt sees routes and anticipates breaks way better than Smith does. The ball is going to come out before or right when the receiver breaks. He will throw balls that Smith hangs onto, because Smith likes to see it before he throws it.

Colt will not look like a game manager. He will look like Cousins. In games where he doesn't turn it over we'll be calling for him to start over Alex, even when Alex is healthy. In games where Colt turns it over, we'll be like oh yeah this is why we wanted Alex.

Fingers crossed he keeps the turnover bug at bay.
