Team is what we thought they would be, 8-8 ish. Still have a small chance since dallas has NO next week. But they are on fire so anything can happen.

They're not beating New Orleans, we need to take care of business against Philly

I kept calling for Bibbs last night during the game. I totally agree its like all or nothing for AP. Sometimes just take the few yards instead of waiting for something to develop while u dance around. I like Bibbs alot.

Good thoughts.

I "watched the tape" (god I hate myself for saying this, sounds so pretentious...), so I'll go ahead and give mine:

-Fact: even with 2 TDs handed to the Cowboys on a silver platter, even with 3 bad turnovers by Colt (one of them half on him/half on Moses), even with awful calls by the refs (and non-calls, ie the hit to the helmet of a defenseless receiver on Reed late in the game) at least one of them on 3rd down, costing us more than 3 minutes of game clock... even with all of that, we lost a one possession road game to a division rival that we beat at home. We shouldn't feel as bad about this one as we did right after the game IMO.

-Josh Norman had a pretty bad game. The whole secondary did. Amari Cooper knows how to run routes though... And some of the sacks were coverage induced.

-But above all: HHCD took poor angles all game long and it costed us 14 points... The first one came on 3rd down too... Take away these 2 plays and our D did a good job.

-Pass rush was a huge positive from this game.

-Tim Settle played really well. He's developing really nicely. I'll make amend for being wrong about him during preseason by uploading a gif or 2 of plays he made.

-AP bounced outside wayyyyy too much. Sometimes there were yards to be taken. Either he doesn't trust his blockers, either his shoulder injury has him slightly scared of contact, just enough for him to subconsciously prefer to go outside than lower the boom.

-Still believe we can win some games with this team.

Re: Dallas postgame

I agree, we will still win some games this season. I think we will be 8-8 or maybe even 9-7. I was upset after the game and wrote it was a "terrible" game but in retrospect, it was closer than it seemed. The team did not give up and fought to the end.

I just can't figure out why Gruden's team never plays well in the big, televised games. Obviously, this all reflects back to the coach.

Dallas postgame

Colt hasn’t played with the first unit in 4 years. He hasn’t had a single practice rep. He was thrown into a national TV Thanksgiving Day game 4 days later...He gave us a legit shot to win last week, and2 of his picks were simply not knowing his receivers tendencies, and not having timing down. He was pressured all night because our line is decimated AGAIN.

I think he deserves more of a chance here.

Re: Dallas postgame

Dallas had a great game plan. They knew we had a good pass rush inside and they used screens, Quick pass Concept and rpo. That is called good coaching and preparation. Exactly what DJ said we lack.

Anyone wonder how this team would have turned out if Shannahan wasn’t blamed for the asshole RG3 turned out to be, and was allowed to work with Cousins. Shannahan was a no bullshit coach and wouldn’t allow this crap to happen

Shanahan's 170 wins as a head coach ranked 12th in NFL history. Shanahan has coached in eight college bowl games, two NCAA national championships, 10 NFL conference championships, six Super Bowls and winning back to back Super Bowls. He developed a reputation as one of the most respected and upstanding members of the NFL community.

Gruden...not so much.

Shanahan > Gruden

Shanahan with us = Gruden because they both failed.
Also how can you forget Jays Arena Bowl championships? #legend

I'm not doubting his overall resume but let's be honest he didn't get it done here.

Snyder creating the RG3 fiasco and how it spilled over to Cousins undermined any chance Shanny had at success.
