2018 NFL Week #14 Gameday Thread: Philadelphia Eagles (6-6) @ Dallas Cowboys (7-5)

[Dodger12]

Dodger wont like this either.

The only reason Dak had a chance in the 4th quarter is because of the D. It's like that stat where we are the only team in the history of the NFL to win after incurring 100 penalty yards, allowing three touchdown passes, and losing the turnover battle by two or more.

This type of game and QB play is not sustainable. Some people like to look at the adversity and claim Dak is great while not recognizing it's Dak that put you in that position in the first place.

Dak played well in the 4th quarter and OT, but he shit the bed the other 3. But all flaws are covered up after a win.

Almost verbatim, my laments from years past.

Welcome to my world, during the Romo years! Is his coaching turning Dak into Romo, as I predicted and feared?

On the Aikman quote, did you notice what could be a subtle dig? He said he'd have no problem with Dak being the face of "a franchise." Not THE franchise. Not "the Cowboys franchise."

Dak
Zeke
Cooper
Lawrence
B. Jones

who do we pay and who do we let go?

We're going to have 65-70mils in cap space next year.

They don't have to do anything immediately with anyone other than Lawrence, who they could potentially franchise tag again. Everybody else is under contract next yr.

 

[dbair1967]

Yeah, he's mattered.

Except Cooper?

Can teams carry over cap space to following years?

Clearly there's enough to lock the "stars" up but would that be better spent in FA if you have a pressing need or two and the right player(s) come available?

Cooper is under contract next yr too, just like Prescott, Zeke & B Jones.

Yes they can roll cap space, although the rules seem to have changed a couple times the past two offseasons on it.

Looks like Carson Wemtz might be done for the yr with a back injury.

 

[NoMoRedJ]

Thats pretty amazing. And its exactly the kind of thing that will have Jerry eager to overpay for Dak. Oh, and justify him picking and keeping the Red Clown around.

 

[NoMoRedJ]

Are the refs responsible for his back injury?

 

[Doomsday]

Looks like Carson Wimpz might be done for the yr with a back injury.

Boy, they're sure getting that mileage outta that 1st round pick!

I bet Philly wins out now, and even returns to the SB.

But I'm sure all of this can be quickly explained away.

From The Nut Zone - ONE Position Holds This Team Back From Winning the Super Bowl



With this Defense, Rb, and Wr threat to make teams pay for focusing on Elliot. We are built to win it all.

But the QB position still scares me. Defenses focus on Elliot, which in return allows guys like Cooper, Gallup and Beasley to roam free, and we all see it. But what happens more than half the time?

Dak misses them for big plays. So instead of jumping out to a huge lead, we let teams hang around, scoring FGs with a shaky kicker.

Our D puts the clamps down on other teams, but when our O, mainly Dak gets to dicking around for most of the game, they are bound to break a little. Then like the *******s many of us are, we get mad at the D.

It would be disappointing to have this team and not win it all because of Dak and his inability to consistently burn teams.

With Romo we'd def win. Even Stafford or Carr would get the job done. I don't believe in Daks ability to throw

Nothing short of absolute perfection will do, when it comes to Dak. For some people.

Then they will never be satisfied or happy becuz they arent gonna see it from him.
