2021 NFL Week 13: Dallas Cowboys vs. New Orleans Saints

[dbair1967]

Mainly because we're not serious about really running the ball. We keep calling more finesse-type runs, instead of loading up jumbo and double-teaming the interior DLs, and running that mother fucker up the seam.

As I have said before, Helen Keller Moore does not want to run the ball. He only pays lip service to it, calling run plays that aren't optimal, so he can later say "the run wasn't working."

Running the fucking ball is a mindset, it's about imposing will on the opponent - the exact opposite of our "take what they give us" philosophy.

The facts aren't an exciting prospect though.

That's bullshit because they were running the ball with ease earlier in the season, and running it alot.

As the season has wore on, the blocking scheme has either been completely figured out or these guys have just lost all their effectiveness. I don't see any push or any lanes being opened, and this has gone on for weeks.

Even the pass protection has been unimpressive so far tonight.

Look at the running plays we were running back then, vs. what we've seen since the bye. It's not the same plays and it's not the same philosophy.

We WERE double teaming the interior d-linemen. We WERE running traps and wham plays. Those are gone. Now we're running strictly man-blocking and/or zone blocking schemes.

 

[Dodger12]

This offense is just putrid. Putrid. Putrid.

 

[Dodger12]

I just don't understand how a team can look like world beaters before the bye week and come out a completely different team after.

 

[dbair1967]

Another horrendous offensive series, starting with yet another failed run play that loses yards.

On the replay not one of the 3 interior OL for us got a hand on a single front 7 guy for the Saints.

Just getting humiliated up front.

The punter is the best player on our team today.

Same run plays dude.

Nobody is blocking, period.

I dont know what the fuck you are watching, these guys dont even get their hands on guys most run plays now. Complete whiffs over and over.

 

[dbair1967]

Bad 3 and out, really bad defensive series.

Just a completely embarrassing display of football this week. They dont even remotely resemble a playoff team, let alone team that could actually make a run. If they get into the playoffs I dont see how they'd win a single game playing like this.

 

[Dodger12]

I'm trying so hard to stay positive on Dak. I thought the kid was playing at an MVP level and proved me wrong. He's a one read QB. I just can't understand the difference in this team and Dak after the bye.

 

[dbair1967]

11 carries for 20 yards combined by Zeke and Pollard.

Longest running play by either of them, 4 yds. Once.

Of course not, that's the fucking punch line of my "joke/sarcasm" doofus!

give em some slack man, jeri and spawn are hesitant to spend money on that side of the ball

 

[Dodger12]

What a horrible call. I almost expect a make-up call coming up.

 

[Dodger12]

Obviously. We need a few more 1st round picks on OL....

 

[Dodger12]

Refs saved this team on that series.

He hasnt been the same, but the OL is is clearly the #1 problem. They are just getting completely dominated every single snap.

It's what I have been saying. Something happened to the chemistry during the bye week. It's almost like someone decided, "what we have been doing won't work going forward, we have to change it up before the league catches up with us." And the players are either confused by the changes, or haven't bought into them.

If you don't have the player buy-in, you don't have shit no matter their talent.

& wide receiver, I mean when's the last time this organization was willing to spend a first round pick on a WR???

Now THAT is sarcasm!

 

[dbair1967]

Another 3 and out.

JFC

This game is reminiscent of that strike year debacle vs Washington in 1987

It didn't work. The most recent ones, do.
