How come when a team loses the fans blame the refs. There was just as much holding on your team as the Cowboys. You guys were just manhandled. This is for all of us "arrogant" Cowboy fans. Stop making excuses and see ya in the playoffs...maybe. xD

We were getting tackled with no calls.  Cowboys were also given a freebie with the botched fumble which led to points.   Rigged play.  The other fumble that was overturned hasn't been in other games because it wasn't obvious but amazingly it does this game.  Below knee hits on Sam not called.  DPI on Anderson not called at least twice.   

Just without the freebie fumble which cannot be argued against this game could have ended quite differently. 

Neither team played their best but one team definitely was on 90% of the calls which is kind if weird let's be honest.

Dallas has a very talented o-line, and they did a good job of neutralizing our d-line. To make matters worse the refs were letting the o-line hold on run plays, and especially on their first drive. That opened up rushing lanes you could drive a dump truck through.  To pile on the defense starting getting gassed around the middle of the 3rd quarter due to poor play by our offense. If that wasn't bad enough, two defensive starters went down and came back in hurting.

If we want to beat a team with as much talent as the Cowboys then we need fair refs, and Horn and CMC need to be back. Even then it would be a nail biter.

We played 2 bad teams with rookies making their first start and a hammered Saints team….. 

today we played a top tier NFL offense with essentially no holes on offense.  

so what are we? Something inbetween weeks 1-3 and today.  Few teams are built like the Cowboys O.  Good OL, Good QB, Good RBs, Good WRs.

You won by 8 points and you know good and well that not reviewable fumble was a huge momentum shift in your team's favor that the refs just happened to get wrong. Been watching football my whole life and it's always been this way with Dallas. It's just a cold hard reality that there are certain teams the league favors for marketing reasons. 

You're arrogant because your team always gets the calls and most of the time your team still sucks. On top of that, on average Cowboy fans are the least knowledgeable of any fan base in the NFL. I honestly have nothing against most of your players. It's your garbage of a human being owner and your bangwagon no nothing poo for brains fanbase that I take issue with. 

Cowboys fans are always the first to run their mouths when the team wins and the first to make excuses when they suck, so get your sorry ass outta here with your pot calling the kettle black bullshit.

So Dak Prescott not being a rookie is the reason Zeke ran for a ton against us?

Absolutely, having a great qb makes it easier to run the ball. The threat of their passing game (much better than the rookies we faced) changed the way we defended the run and they took advantage of it.

The talk about refs and holding may hold weight with our own fans but nobody else cares. We got punched in the mouth from the start and they didn't let up. Carolina ran into a more motivated opponent with a damn good oline and plenty talent of their own. In truth we seemed ill-prepared for the moment. Can't have that if a winning season is the goal.

Actually we punched them in the mouth pretty damn good at the start. Especially that huge hit that caused the fumble but cowboy refs ruled it forward momentum.

Yeah and we got called. Where did Dallas get called? Thanks

Dallas's offensive line is very good and they honestly have talent all over the field.  They should have won and did....I liked the way we hung in there and played as hard as we could the entire game, shows maturity and growth.  Our time will come.....

      Why I Believe That We Will Trade Down

      By Martin · Posted

      I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.

      I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
