2023 Season | Week 13 | Thursday Gameday Chatter Thread | Seahawks @ Cowboys | 11/30/2023

If a win can be "revealing," it was this one.

Great game by Dak. Still think that little clock mismangement was on him, but that was about his only mistake all night.

Starting to believe the coaching change is going to make the difference for him.

Meanwhile, Camo Hat has some 'splanin to do.

He just wanted to give himself a little space for the TD pass...

How much money would you have bet if somebody came up and told you that Jordan Lewis was going to have a good game tonight, and Daron Bland was going to be repeatedly torched from first play to last?

They'd have laughed you off the board if you said this before the game.

The Seahawks WRs took bland to school tonight.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

This was ugly for the defense. But sometimes you need to have a close physical game and win. Seattle was out there for blood all game the way they hit, talked shit, and were just physical in general. And Dallas came back to win the game.

Now these boys have 10 days to get prepped for the game I think has been on their mind all week.

 

[NoDak]

Tons, tons, tons of credit to Dak. Great game.

Absolutely. With the defense playing like complete shit, he put the team on his back tonight.

Also, Lamb, Turd, and Cooks had really nice games. These 4 are turning into a very nice passing attack.

 

[p1_]

We should be embarrassed to have to hit 40 points to beat the fucking Seahawks.

That is my goddamn takeaway going forward.

You were correct. Their secondary is Dak friendly

 

[1bigfan13]

I'm surprised they went for such a low percentage play on that killshot fade pass to Lamb. Ferguson was cooking all night, I'd have looked for him on a safer route.

Yeah wish Dak would have just pulled that down and taken a sack. But it's a ball that sort of needs to come out before you know if the receiver has the win.

the slant was actually going to be open too. They went to the fade and the db played the fade

 

[dpf1123]

9-3, defense has a lot of things to work on, but I'll take it.

 

[Genghis Khan]

That was an MVP-worthy performance.

I'm glad he did this on prime time with everyone watching. He definitely deserves consideration at the very least.

 

[NoDak]

I'll say one thing about tonight. Apart from the defense playing awful, this is the kind of game that builds heart with a team. Shit constantly going wrong, and still finding a way to win against a scrappy team that was playing above their level. And the confidence in the offense and the QUARTERBACK will only grow with their performance tonight. I know it probably won't happen, but I would seriously give Dowdle the start, and work Pollard in like we have the last few years. He is night and day different when used as a change of pace guy. I love him. But he's just not a lead back.

As far as the defense goes, I have faith that DQ will fix some shit. He's too good of a coach, and there is too much talent for him to work with on this D not to. He has ten days to figure it out.

 

[p1_]

Zero punts in this game. WTF

And we had at least two 4th down stops .

 

[NoDak]

CeeDee Lamb, Micah Parsons, and Dak Prescott refused to lose this game

I'd throw Turd into that mix, also. He was not going to be denied on multiple catches where he caught it short of the sticks and had to plow through some people.

 

[Plan9Misfit]

Hey dak was badass tonight.

I’m not a fan of Dak by any stretch of the imagination, but he was really good tonight. There’s no way we win this game without him playing the way he did. He made one bad throw and one risky throw. The rest was very, very good. It’s evident that he’s much more comfortable running a WCO than any of the bullshit that Garrett and Moore forced him to run.

Ferg is a really good TE. I'm really glad we have him instead of Howell backing Dak up. Even though I've been told that is stupid.

The defense had a lull last year at this time funnily enough. They turned it back around and I'd guess this year they will also.

I don't think I'd start Dowdle but I think I'd move their snaps closer to even.

Lewis was excellent tonight.
