I rather for the Cowboys to lose. After watching the Bucs last night, they can be beaten. They have no depth in their secondary after a corner and a safety went out for injury. The Cowboys really marched up and down the field last night with ease sometimes

The Bucs are totally beatable. You just need excellent qb and oline play...the two weakest position groups on our roster.

Idk if people noticed but the cowboys were specifically targeting one-on-one matchups with multiple WRs against the Buccs secondary. They limited the run game due to Zach (OL) was out and with the big run stoppers they have and picked they apart with little screen plays, curls and comeback routes and getting the ball into the hands on playmakers. We should take notes. It was a solid game plan. Cowboys would've won if it wasn't for a few drops and missed kicks. 

Well the drops were by Cee Dee Lamb. I don't know if Mike Evans were injured/hurt but he didn't look good last night either. The interception that Dak through was because of Cee Dee Lamb. They kept targeting number 35 and Cockrell. I hope we did take notes.

The Bucs would've won by a comfortable margin without the turnover issues. The Cowboys won the turnover battle 4-1 and still lost. That's hard to pull off. Your odds of losing an NFL game when you're +3 in the turnover margin are probably in the single digits.

If Dallas had a better kicker I would probably be sick right now. And IDK what the fug McCarthy was doing last night trotting the kicker out there for a 60 yard field goal. Me personally, I wouldn't have kicked the field goal at the end of the game. I probably would have went for it on 4th down and went for the TD. The Majority of people didn't think they were going to win that game anyway so what do they have to lose? That was just too much time left on the clock for Brady.

How can you say those two areas are weak? They have not even played their first game yet.

ive been hearing all week how this was gonna be a blow out and the game ended up being a lot close and entertaining.

The same way I can call rb and dline a strength. would you argue against that too?

Yes, I would. We only have CMC. The depth behind him is either JAGs or unproven rookies. If you are basing that RB/DLine is a strength because of last year that's fine. If you are basing that QB/OLine is weak base on last year's performance then I guess that's ok too, but I'm not going to do that. 


Last year is last year. Just because you have a bad year last year does not mean you are going to have a bad year this year and vice versa. Let them play a few games first. They might surprise you like the Cowboys surprised the Bucs and the rest of America last night.

    • We've never seen them outside of the structure of two very well ran organizations I'll give you that. And yes they are long in the tooth. I do think they are more than capable of getting a franchise turned around in short term capacity though. They are by no means a long term solution.
    • You're not making a good-faith argument by blaming literally everything on the quarterback when the defense gave him a fat 38 seconds to overcome its ineptitude, but it seems you're dead-set on blaming him for any problem the team encounters. In this case, it's not warranted. Sometimes it is. But he had no time to throw (pressured on 46% of all dropbacks, an insane amount) and that's simply not all his fault -- particularly when they rush 4 or less and are in the backfield in 1.5s or less. Should we have gotten more than 0 yards? Sure! But he hit a WR in the hands on fourth down and it was dropped. Not his fault. He missed one throw on second down but I attribute first down to a bad play call and third down to poor pass protection. I would've called some quick slants, personally, but it really seems you're saying: - playcalling: Bryce's fault - poor pass protection: Bryce's fault - defensive choking away a lead: Bryce's fault, not the defense - Horn dropping a pass: Bryce's fault It's a great way to garner support on here, because when it comes to Bryce, logic takes such a backseat to context that it's not even in the same vehicle. Plenty of games can be attributed to him. Can't take anyone seriously who solely blames him for that one. 
    • I don't see how you can logically make that argument when the team beat two of the top teams in the entire league during the regular season.  Now imagine the additional games we would have won against absolute tip top competitors like SF and SEA had we had a professional QB.  You can throw any random stat at the problem you want, but the proof is in the pudding.  We all watched it live.  This roster would have produced 13 wins (wins against SF and SEA, two wins against NO, and would have swept the Bucs) and (almost certainly) a #1 seed with a remotely competent QB.  Those were not games where we needed an all star performance to win.  Those were games where a very, very modest stat line would have netted us an easy win. Nearly every measurable aspect of the team would have been significantly improved with a competent QB.
