First half we certainly looked competitive. Had a pathetic ref call gone our way it may have been a widely different score the first half.

Just a matter of learning and getting better from this. Mistakes and turnovers we made were easy fuel for the high powered Dallas offense. 

They adjusted at halftime and we didn't. Felt like the good old days again.

My concern is that we didn't look like we belonged on the field with them until they bafflingly went prevent and rested their best DB late.

Did you only watch the 3rd quarter?

We absolutely looked like we belonged the 1st half, especially with the way the refs walked the cowboys down the field for a TD and took away a fumble at the 50....

So we didn't look like we belonged on the field with them in the first half where we led by 1 despite them starting with the ball and having a TD handed to them? We had a series of events that spiraled out of control briefly in the 3rd quarter, not really that big of a deal in the bigger picture.

Very true. Also what didn't help was giving them easy field position. That avalanche began with that missed FG, then the turnovers afterwards. They feast on that.

That should be priority number 1 of fixing: gotta stop making silly mistakes like that. Hope Rhule understands that as well.

That’s not true.  We were leading at the half despite them being gifted a TD.  We won 3 of 4 quarters.  The 3rd quarter was simply historically bad…and it all started with a missed FG.

In my mind, second half coaching and adjustments are as big a concern as the OL.

Yep. That call for a FG was boneheaded as they come. Awful call and momentum shifter, gifting the Cowboys easy field position.

Gotta learn to not give opponents those fruitcakes and be that risky.

We didn’t get outplayed, we got out coached. It happens this staff is young. We will come back from this. We are a borderline playoff team. That in itself us exciting. This year isn’t SB or bust. Learn from mistakes and come back next week and do better.

That field goal call completely changed the game. I couldn't believe Rhule called for that.

I catch myself guilty of that thinking too. But then I remember that we were literally leading at halftime even though Dallas was gifted a possession that led to a td on that abysmal forward progress ruling. The 3rd quarter was about as abysmal as it gets, starting with the missed fg and followed by 2 interceptions that led to short fields and TDs. But don't let that make you forget that for 3/4 of the game, we played with a lot of fight and hell, arguably looked like the better team.

    • And I’m fine with that.   But, with an impatient owner….that carries high odds of just him employing a new HC in the not distant future.  The “we will see if the scheme that doesn’t fit our #1 overall pick QB works or not” approach seems like a rocky plan for all.  If I was Canales I would give it shot but demanded I need to be able to sign a legit backup QB in case what I was given just doesn’t work and can transition at the end of the year 
    • That's really unlikely to happen.  The reality is, they are building for what Canales wants to do.  That's what all coaches do.  And if Bryce can't do that, he's another peg that has to be replaced.
    • There is nothing unpopular at all about your opinion. How everything played out on the field backs it up. Bryce starts the season with much fanfare, gives the atl game away, and showed anyone who watched that his arm talent was shockingly bad. bad look, so after a few weeks, the team cooks up a fake injury that nobody saw, presumably to decide what direction to go next. Enter Dalton for one game while Bryce is seen walking comfortably on the sideline, smiling and yucking it up like he’s a 5 year vet.  Dalton performs admirably given the circumstances (please no Dalton ve Bryce retort). The contrast between the two was so strong that it’s still debated today. If Dalton’s performance was similar to what Bryce had done up to that point, I truly believe they would have sat Bryce longer, but it wasn’t.  Dalton relied on vet savvy and a better arm. It’s debatable how many games that gets us. Meaningless to fans, but not to players with serious financial incentives on the line.  What it really was, was a ‘young man (see what I did?)’ playing a grown man’s game, who lacked basic fundamentals and essential physical talent, behind a line that was VERY ill suited for the scheme forced on them, WRs who looked completely confused and unmotivated, with a back stabbing coaching staff in give up mode, GM who I wouldn’t trust to organize my cooking utensil drawer and an owner who meets with coaches every week and tells them which plays he likes and which ones he doesn’t.  Bryce doesn’t get a mulligan, but I’m willing to give him a ‘my bad’ from the team. Last season stunk worse than Bigfoot’s di**. It literally can’t get ANY worse than the unwatchable sh** show that was last year.  I have to see a monumental change in his physical ability and overall confidence. I have to see that he found a laser arm, somewhere, in the offseason, or everything else is irrelevant.
