kind of an ugly win, but with all our missing players, I'll take it

When is the last time we won a game missing 5 starters? On the road, too. We held pretty good offense to 17 points. I see backups playing with heart.
 
Has anyone ever thought about trying Jackson at WR? :unsure
 
Look at that another great pass by Vince, err Lamar. Sorry @ravidubey it's hard to tell them apart

For as good as Pollard was today, Zeke remains the better interior runner so I'd like to see us maximize all of the weapons we have.

I’d love it.

I think they see themselves though these past two weeks down first Martin and now Collins and have wisely concluded their best matchups are on the outside

Wow. Jamal Adams with the roughing passer call when ball was incomplete on 3rd going to 4th down.

Yes, that was money well spent.
 
I thought the mix of Zeke and Pollard was great. In the end only 3 carries separated them but I thought the mix worked extremely well. Neither guy has to carry the ball 20 plus times and it will keep both guys fresh all season long. Then come playoff time if you need one guy to bring out a win they will still have it in them for a big game.

Honestly we could have played better but lots of positives too. The difference between making mistakes and not is that we had to have a game winning drive. There will be games where we play better and win easily. But we were underdogs in this game and came away with the win. Good job all around.

People bitch that we don't win on the road and we don't beat playoff teams. We did both tonight. Moving on we just need to keep winning and hopefully put ourselves in a good position for when guys get healthy. This defense is going to keep getting better. They are young with a new scheme.

I think most of us will be sharing that meal with you man. I have to eat a bite or two because of Jaylon as well. He wasn't all world but he showed up and did his job for the most part.

He did have some decent play, so did LVE.

A lot of bad shit could happen just as easily as picking up another 5 or so yards. Which would have taken us out of FG range.

You are still scarred from the Tashard Choice fumble. and that is 100% understandable.

Good to see we can go pass happy or run heavy depending on what we want to do without a problem.

Kellen Moore is legit, and may not be long for the Dallas Cowboys. He is a really good game planner. And maybe even a better play caller. We should try our damndest to keep him as long as we can.

I think everyone would have liked to get it in better field goal range, our coach included. But I can see why they didn't want to panic run a play as the clock was running down with 1 timeout left.

We shouldn't have ran the ball there. Should have saved that for second or third down. Basically what Romo said.

As much as we all hate Jaylon Smith, he actually played like a passable rotational LB today. LVE and of course Parsons were better but he actually looked like he belonged in an NFL game.

We'll see how long it lasts but it's nice to see.

We will see. I saw one play that he actually had a "splash" play, but I missed almost half the game, so...
