When Pittsburgh scored w/4:56 remaining to lead 17-13, Dak led the Cowboys on a 15-play, 70-yard drive. It was nearly derailed thanks to a Dowdle fumble at the goal line on an attempted dive into the end zone, but Dak jumped on the loose ball. Two plays later, he stayed in the pocket just long enough to evade the rush of Watt & found Tolbert for a four-yard touchdown pass on fourth-and-goal. Dak is 2-0 at Pittsburgh.
He literally earned his paycheck in this game. Time to put asleep that he can't defeat "good teams". Give credit where it's due.
It shouldn't have been that close though. We dominated the game, outgaining them by a ratio of 2 to 1. But 3 dumb turnovers, going 1 for 4 in the redzone, and another 11 penalties committed shows that there are still some glaring issues with this team.
My Gosh, no one picked Dallas to win. Especially with all the injuries & in a loud atmosphere & your complaining?! A "W" is a "W" no matter what the score. How would you like waking up today being a 49ers fan! Talk about "glaring issues". There's no such thing as a perfect team. Knowing Egals fans are ticked, makes this win so much sweeter no matter the score.
