Lol no

People here know nothing outside of Panther football a d are convinced the cowboys are a bad team despite being two years removed from being econd seed in the NFC.

The Cowboys are a pretty bad team, we lose yesterday against a decent team.     The defense was beast yes but come on.

Well when 50% of this board gloats about how “potent and explosive” our offense is going to be all offseason and then flutter against the Cowboys, granted they have a solid defense, and you really wonder why people are questioning things. You can be happy with a win and concerned moving forward at the same time.

Kind of hard when you feel you barely beat a bad team.     Missed opportunities, bad clock management, special team fails.... just more of the same from the Rivera regime.

The offense scheme is still lackluster.

Face it folks, this is how this team will always be under Rivera.     The defense has to play the whole game and carry it, and if they don't, it's over.     

Special team fail?  One botched snap due to satilui but besides that ST played a great game.

They're quite literally us from two years ago.

Great defense, Good Qb with a good run game but no real supporting cast.

Cam > Dak obviously but Zeke > Our RBs. Plus they have a much better O-Line.

If their HC wasn't basically Shula with Jerry Jones' cock down his throat they'd be a legit team.

I think the problem is yeah we won, but we are decimated by injuries with no help in sight.

Are we really any more than before?

Was Ron conservative the last series yes but it was better to not to beat ourselves and have Dallas try to beat us.  Our Defense was on point all game yesterday. We was still up by 8 points you dont want to risk a pick 6 that late in the game.  

 

With that said we need to get our offense going early.  We have 2 great running backs I understand they want get CMC the ball alot.  But they need to get CJ more involved.  Offensive line is just a mess right now.  Which sucks because if we had a decent line this team would be one of the best we have had.  Cam doesnt have the time to wait for the wrs to get open and has to throw short passes.  

 

Alot of hating on funchess but he made some great catches yesterday Wright had a good game and Torrey Smith had a catch.  DJ had the one catch/run and looked decent. 

First game of the season got the rust off and secondary did there job.  Get some help on the oline and we will be hard to stop. 

This 1000%. It's really weird how little they seem to be using him. He looked great in his limited action on Sunday.

Considering we went into the game with our starting RT and TE and left with them likely heading to IR never to return, yeah I’d say so.

Are you stupid or just not getting that they said Williams injury was not terrible and Greg Olsen has a better TE behind him. As far as problems we had them coming in and still do.

Olsen, Williams hurts a lot tho, nobody behind him was half way decent or ready, big loss imo

[Zaximus]

Like others said, CJ should have been fed till they stopped him.      I think the score is a lot different if we use CJ more.

Hey @saints4lifeagain, does the Saints board have morons on it demanding Payton's firing? Asking for a friend.

When you realize he probably was about 45% of himself it really wasn't going to be a good thing. He was just playing injured because he wants a paycheck next year and we didn't have any one else.

Bahaha yeah right. Rivera and Hurney are both sugarcoating the Williams injury. 

Thomas looks promising but he can’t hold a candle to Olsen right now, and that’s saying something because Olsen is a shell of himself.

I don’t know about 45%, but I will agree he wasn’t close to 100, maybe 70%? The one shining light is we will now probably resign him on the cheap and he just missed out on his biggest possible pay day.

i know it sucks for him but I have a hard time feeling bad for people who will make more in a year than I will in my lifetime.
