Ya know, every year we have a win like this where we beat a team we have no business beating. Fans start getting their hopes up only to be let down.
I wanna see what this team does next week before I start touting this defense. They got up for this game and that’s great but let’s see this shit every week.
After the excitement wore off last night, I came back down to earth.
I definitely felt that way about the D a few weeks ago, but this defense is for real. They have stepped it up over the last month and are the reason for the win streak. The bad news, as there always is for Dallas is that Dak basically sucks.
Yeah Tyron was out, and we miss The Bearded One but holy shit the guy is a sack and fumble machine. Add that to the overthrow on a a wide open Gallup down the sideline and there are the indicators that he just doesn’t grasp the position. He definitely doesn’t protect the ball and he is a sitting duck in the pocket.
This is a SB caliber D but Dak effectively neutralizes it with the TOs and sacks.
I’m celebrating the win but my enthusiasm for the postseason is very limited.
I don’t think a team can win marching thru the playoffs with a QB who takes huge sacks and fumbles the ball like Dak does at the most inopportune time.
