I'd like to see Grady J. with a star on his helmet.

He might be cut after the season and I'd absolutely have him on the first flight to Dallas.

We all need to eat crow on Fassel, I definitely didn't (and still don't for the most part) think that the risk of blocking a punt and roughing the kicker is worth the very rare reward of a blocked punt, but 3 blocked punts in 9 games speaks for itself.

And you just know he has some wacky fake punt in the back pocket waiting for the playoffs. It could end up being a fucking disaster, but it could also swing a game.

Agreed, Have we had a roughing the kicker this year?I don't recall.

Lewis was targeted 5 times. 3 of those ended up in PBUs. I'd say that's pretty damn good.

2 in a row on 3rd and 4th downs that would have helped their momentum.

Against the Chargers which was pretty bad, I think there was one more against the Patriots maybe?

 

[shoop]

I've noticed that, too. Yeah, chunk plays are nice. But it's 4th down, dude. Take the sure thing, and let's live to play another set of downs.

To be fair the first 2 against Denver we ran the ball and missed. One looked closer then they called, especially with the lack of measurement lately, but may be in his head.

Not that I can remember.

Beats the Jaylon pregame talks.

Mahomes would drive me crazy as a coach. He’s lucky he doesn’t have several picks every week.

I'm praying he throws up a few of those 50/50 jump balls towards Diggs side of the field. It won't end well for Carrot Top.

~smiley face with heart eyes~

That's BISP material right thar.

Damn right.

People are going to knit pick him for the plays he gives up because people love to hate on Cowboys who get lots of attention, but ultimately I'm taking a guy like him over an elite cover guy who doesn't make plays 100 times out of 100.

Yep. Same here.

2018 Byron Jones (2nd Team All-Pro) vs 2021 Trevon Diggs. Who ya got?

I'm taking Diggs all day every day.

I gotta bitch about something every week. It's just who I am.

My one complaint from yesterday is about the play we ran with Cedrick Wilson at QB. I hate that we show stuff like that in a blowout when the game has already been wrapped up.

I prefer saving those little gadget plays for games like next week.

Not sure that Kellen Moore ever runs out of gadget plays. :)

He seems to come up with at least one every week. I have fallen in love.

Diggs easily. The turnovers make the biggest difference even though 2018 Jones is almost certainly the better cover corner.
