Prescott really struggles whenever he plays a semi competent defense. I get the feeling we'll be one and done in the playoffs at this rate

Edit: I also hope y'all see why i said Dez is overrated. I'd say Dez is like a B+ reciever where as Odell, Julio, and Antonio Brown are like the A+ recievers. 



Time for Ravens win? Would really ruin my Steelers in playoffs fantasy.



Holy shit, the Lions have a legit shot at the number 1 seed. Never would have thought we'd be in this position at the start of the year. 2 critical road games in a row though, hopefully Stafford's finger doesn't cause too many problems.

...no they don't don't.

Detroit has a legit shot at the #2 seed. If you think the Lions have a realistic chance to catch the Cowboys with games at Dallas and New York, as well as a finale against a suddenly hot Green Bay, then you either have some fantastic drugs or you're brimming with a level of optimism that even Dory could never hope to match.

It's bizarre, because Dak seemed to have overcome that earlier, but has since regressed considerably.

The Ravens stuffed the run early and asked 'hey Dak, can you beat us in the air?', and proceeded to blitz him repeatedly. And Dak torched them in that game.

Since then it's been a decline. Either it will wake the team up or it won't. The really bizarre thing is that Zeke hit 100 yards in the game, mostly early in the game in fact, so the run was established and working well, but inexplicably Linehan started calling 3/4s passing plays, and nonsense situational aptitude. 3rd and 2? Hail mary to nowhere! 3rd and 11? Delayed handoff to Zeke when there are 6 guys jailbreaking to either side of him well behind the LOS.

You're not kidding about the worst game of the year. Both defenses played outstanding, but it takes real work to have Eli throw multiple picks, lose fumbles and STILL look even worse than that.

It's important to remember that most of the guys on the roster are 25-26 years old and younger. The O line was overall excellent. The defense was excellent. But enough key guys, most crucially Dak, seemed to be less than up for this game. 11 wins in a row can make even great players a little overconfident, even subconciously.



And as expected nothing but disrespect from the media towards the Titans lol. But they'll still continue to praise and talk about the Cowboys 24/7

I mean, one of those teams just lost its first game since Week 1 and has the best record in the league, the other isn't even in the playoffs at the moment and has a 1-3 division record...

Congrats on beating Denver, but don't expect that to instantly result in the team being showered with praise, especially when you have two losses to the Colts on your schedule.



Huh, if I had gone with my gut feelings I could of got the GB and Dallas games right oh well
