Let's go!! This is the music from SNF from the last time Aldon Smith was his elite self. Let's go get some sacks!!!

[Will Hunting]

You’d think with a full year off McCarthy would have lost some weight.

[RD2191]

:lol

[Millennial_Messiah]

And the defense starts out in 2013 mode. Very bad. :(

[Millennial_Messiah]

You’d think with a full year off McCarthy would have lost some weight.
Quarantine fifty tbh.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Too fuckin' easy.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Refs already screwing over the Cowboys with that timeout :lol

[Millennial_Messiah]

Who needs Zeke when you have 3 great WRs TBH?

[Millennial_Messiah]

Yuck ran on first down Need to get Lamb involved early

[DAF86]

Cowboys-Rams :sleep:

How is Brady's first Game with his new team, and vs Drew Brees non the less, not a prime time Game?

[RD2191]

:lol it's like garrett never left

[Millennial_Messiah]

Better team winning, tbh. The Cowboys are good and the best team in their division. The Rams are a little better, but they're the 4th/worst team in their division. Fathom those apples, tbh.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Cowboys-Rams :sleep:

How is Brady's first Game with his new team, and vs Drew Brees non the less, not a prime time Game?
Because FOX owned the rights to it as it is NFC-NFC and under the TV CBA each network can protect one game per week from being flexed to SNF.

[Trainwreck2100]

I think Fox gets first dibs because of the thursday night game

[Trainwreck2100]

Flex isn't an option till like week 7

[DAF86]

I can totally see the Niners going the route of many SB losers and ending up with a record of 4-12 or something like that.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Got to stop the quick throws/screens and make Goff hold it for 3 seconds... jeez

[Mark Celibate]

sons I’m still convinced that The Bot is coaching this team somewhere remote....same results tbh. McCarthey is just a decoy imho

[DAF86]

How do you miss from that close? :lol

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lmao Ball don't lie....

DOINK!

[Millennial_Messiah]

How do you miss from that close? :lol
The sad part about it is, it isn't even the worst missed chip shot of today's games, tbh.... :lol

I don't. They'll win 10-12 games. They just played the fastest rising team in the NFL and still came close. Relax.

They won't draw NFC Best opponents all year. Next two weeks they get the Giants and Jets. Soon enough they'll be 2-1 and just fine.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I hate when they run Zeke up the gut on 1st down. It hasn't worked since fucking 2016. Throw the damn ball.

[DAF86]

I don't. They'll win 10-12 games. They just played the fastest rising team in the NFL and still came close. Relax.

I'm not saying it will surely happen but I wouldn't be surprised if it did. Crapopolo sucks ass and they are in the toughest division.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Nice Gallup.... still haven't gotten Lamb involved :(

[Millennial_Messiah]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! CEEEEEEEEEEEE DEEEEEEEEEEE BABY!!!!!! #88 #ThrowUpTheX

[Millennial_Messiah]

Let's go!!!! :ihit Zeeeeeeeeeeke with the receiving TD!! Finally

[RD2191]

good shit, Zeke

[Millennial_Messiah]

These Dallas safeties and DTs are terrible.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Aldon Smith
DeMarcus Lawrence
Trevon Diggs (the rookie)

the rest of the defense are fucking bums :(

[FrostKing]

Metcalf, Lockett, Chris Carson etc are mediocre? Okay and at some point Josh Gordon will be re-instated since they took out the weed policy in the new CBA; probably around week 7 we'll see him back. Oh, and Philip Dorsett is returning too. And they have Greg Olsen, a likely HOF TE candidate if he stays healthy, and stalwarts in Dissly and Willson behind him. That's hardly "mediocre".
Those are nice pieces. Nowhere near elite status.

[Millennial_Messiah]

8 yards per carry for LA

Leighton Vander Esch injured
Jaylon Smith just sucks
Griffen finally made a play...

Never thought I'd say this again after 2018, but.....i miss Sean Lee

[Millennial_Messiah]

Those are nice pieces. Nowhere near elite status.
all of them combined... oh and did I mention Russell Wilson? That's a heck of a lot more than the Niners have.

On defense, you've got Wagner, Wright, Irvin, Diggs, Dunbar... Reed, Mayowa, etc. you have a nice corps.

oh I forgot Jamal Adams

[Millennial_Messiah]

2nd offsides against Everson Griffin, 5th against the team... jeezus christ

[spurraider21]

hate the neutral zone infraction rule. it just incentivizes the O-Lineman to start acting and jump and point.

if the OL doesnt move and the defender moves back into position, there's no flag (as long as the ball isn't snapped). but some dumbfuck on the offense jumps up and starts pointing, ant it becomes instant penalty on the defense.

49ers have the better roster and coaching. Seahawks have the equalizer at QB.

Seriously... 53 yards? Why not just go for it? Stupid ass :pctoss

[Millennial_Messiah]

just re-iterating to niners stan that one russell wilson is worth three times a garoppolo tbh :lol maybe only two Murray's though.

zuerlein is the only injury prone kicker i can think of in the modern day. hasnt been the same since that one miracle season

[Millennial_Messiah]

Trevon Diggs just got burned now. There is no hope.

nah

Dan Bailey was injured from 2017-2018
Janikowski was injured a year
Matt Bryant missed time
etc

[Millennial_Messiah]

Like the Marshawn commercial... he needs to join a team tbh... but he'll probably wait until the halfway mark roughly... he's probably only interested in playing half-years and only for a contender... maybe Seattle if Hyde doesn't pan out because Carson was their only competent running back today.

[Millennial_Messiah]

C'mon Dak and CeeDee, let's go 75 yards and finish the half 14-13. Please. One time.

[Trainwreck2100]

C'mon Dak and CeeDee, let's go 75 yards and finish the half 14-13. Please. One time.

:lol

[Millennial_Messiah]

That's why I'm saying........... Why not just throw every play? We have enough talent that someone will always get open and catch the ball. There's no reason we should ever have to run unless we're chewing clock or on the goal line.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Amari, CeeDee, Gallup, Jarwin all in on the receiving action on this drive. That's what I want to see. Spread that shit out, spread it around. No 2TE offense. That's bumfuck.

[Millennial_Messiah]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Blake Jarwin tore his ACL :pctoss

[Millennial_Messiah]

DAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not a TD, but a first down. but we have Zeke. Or fake handoff to Zeke; goal line fade to Dez (CeeDee), now that's the play I want to see!!

[Millennial_Messiah]

Throw the fade to CeeDee already. Come on

[Millennial_Messiah]

ZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKE

14-13 baby :toast :hat

And we get the ball to start the second half :hat

[spurraider21]

abysmal performance by the raiders pass rush overall today, but yeah this moment stuck out to me early on

that's why I was telling cat boy that his team peaked in week 1, they won't face a worse defense all year, especially in terms of pass rush

Carr for MVP if the Raiders make the playoffs tbh. He somehow even managed to make Nelson fucking Agholor look good today. Something Wentz couldn't do in 5 years.

[Will Hunting]

This is why I’m convinced the Rams will suck this year. Had nearly a 2:1 advantage in time of possession and outplayed Dallas but still going into halftime down.

[Trainwreck2100]

damn, didn't know riverboat ron had cancer

[Millennial_Messiah]

This is why I’m convinced the Rams will suck this year. Had nearly a 2:1 advantage in time of possession and outplayed Dallas but still going into halftime down.
I don't think they will "suck" per se. I think they'll win 8-10 games but they'll finish 4th place in their division and miss the playoffs.

[Millennial_Messiah]

damn, didn't know riverboat ron had cancer
Good news is it's squamous cell carcinoma in a lymph node and caught early, stage 1-2. If it was say, pancreatic or lung cancer, it'd be quite grave indeed

you never know though, Flip Saunders was about the same age, got hodgkins lymphoma and was expected to be okay, then the chemo came and .....boom, within months he was a dead man.... some people just don't react favorably to chemo

[Trainwreck2100]

NBC has a fucking show with a tranny, and the STILL haven't shitcanned carey underwood

you think 10-6 is 4th place in a division?

[Millennial_Messiah]

Run, run, pass, punt. :depressedDidn't know Clapper was still the coach, tbh.

[DAF86]

Run, run, pass, punt. :depressedDidn't know Clapper was still the coach, tbh.

You still have the same offensive coordinator, tbh.

[Millennial_Messiah]

you think 10-6 is 4th place in a division?
99.9% of the time, no, but this could be the year, if you look at the schedules... the NFC Best clearly is stacked and they have an extremely easy schedule outside of each other (as they all play the NFC East and AFC East, the two worst divisions in football).

Though I would admit that 8-8 or 9-7 is more likely for the 4th place team in the NFC Best. But this could be the outlier year, looking at the schedules.

[Millennial_Messiah]

You still have the same offensive coordinator, tbh.
Oops, I meant.... run, run, sack, punt. Sorry. Forgot about the sack.

Speaking of sacks, Cowboys have zero. Where's loud mouth DeMarcus Lawrence? Griffen? Smith? Bueller?

[Will Hunting]

Cowboys fucked up by dumping Marinelli tbh

[Millennial_Messiah]

Anthony Brown is a bum and always has been. Cut that loser already.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Cowboys fucked up by dumping Marinelli tbh
:lol nope.

Marinelli gave up 30+ to one of the worst offenses in football today :lmao

[Millennial_Messiah]

Darian Thompson burned again in the secondary.

We need to get Earl Thomas tomorrow.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Gaaaaahhhhhhh


My grandma could cover better in the secondary

[Millennial_Messiah]

Typical Sean McVay wasting valuable 2nd half timeouts early in the 3rd quarter. :lol

McVay's poor analytics will be the reason the Rams never make the Super Bowl again in his tenure.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Darian Thompson at free safety whiffs on ANOTHER tackle which would have been a 4 yard loss.... :depressed


#SignEarlThomas

youd basically have to have the whole division sweep every non division game for that to happen :lol

[spurraider21]

Cowboys fucked up by dumping Marinelli tbh
didnt help the raiders today :lol

Why aren't the DBs jumping the short passes? You figure someone would grow a brain back there.... :pctoss

[Millennial_Messiah]

youd basically have to have the whole division sweep every non division game for that to happen :lol
not really...... there's only a grand total of 8 losses to be had in inter-division games between 4 teams. I gave them an average of 3-1 against the AFC East and 3-1 against the NFC East, and winning the other games that they're supposed to win.

:lol Run on 3rd and 6

[Millennial_Messiah]

ugh... Dak threw to the wrong spot... I like the decision by McCarthy but that's got to be a first down... you have to lead CeeDee with the throw you dumbass... :bang

[Millennial_Messiah]

I disagree with 95% of MM’s football takes but seriously, why won’t Dallas sign Earl Thomas?
Jerrah's always been a "we like our guys" kind of hardass dolt, but, as bad as Darian Thompson has been tonight, we simply have no choice unless we want to keep hemorrhaging on defense.

[Millennial_Messiah]

What the fuck was that? :lol

:lol Run on 3rd and 6
:lol not going for the tie
I like the decision. Play for the win. Play with testicles. The problem was the playcall and especially the execution (i.e. Dak threw it to the wrong spot so CeeDee couldn't extend out or escape for the first down and/or the TD).

[Millennial_Messiah]

the problem is, the Cowboys haven't forced a three-and-out all night

I liked the decision, but your defense has to be able to back it up

[Millennial_Messiah]

Wiiiiiiiiiiide open

Jaylon Smith is a fucking zero. Trade this bum

[Millennial_Messiah]

ANOTHER whiffed tackle by #23 Darian Thompson. :pctoss GET THIS SOFT BASTARD OFF THE TEAM!!!

[Millennial_Messiah]

WHY NOT JUMP THE SHORT PASSES YOU DUMB BRAINLESS FUCKS?!?!?? MAKE THEM BEAT YOU DEEP YOU IDIOTS

[spurraider21]

yeah its like a space ship landed

how are the cowboys not able to get things going down the field with these receivers?

[Robz4000]

:lol fumblefaggots

[spurraider21]

that didnt look like a catch/fumble

edit: hmm, it's close. there's that "football move" rule but i wonder if him turning around toward ramsey counts

[RD2191]

:lmaoGarrett shadow coaching.

[Millennial_Messiah]

that has to be incomplete, but, still a punt :(

[Millennial_Messiah]

how are the cowboys not able to get things going down the field with these receivers?
because Prescott is the 19th best quarterback in the league, not top ten

[Millennial_Messiah]

Good punt for a change

[Millennial_Messiah]

Can we EVER stop the fucking run up the gut on 1st down?!??? Jeezus

[Millennial_Messiah]

STOP THE RUN

[spurraider21]

well our LG and backup C are weak and we're on our 3rd RT
Our starting RT got hurt after our first series of the game, backup swing tackle got hurt in the 3rd quarter. we had to play our reserve guard at RT for most of the second half today. jacobs still carried us

[Millennial_Messiah]

Okay, Dak. Here you go. Here is your first audition to be a $35+ Million Quarterback in the NFL. Do or die time. It's all on you from here.

#Dak

[Millennial_Messiah]

Dak was 0-4 in situations like these last year. That's why he didn't get the payday/contract he wanted. If he can't atone for that this year, he deserves to be a Tyrod Taylor type bridge/backup QB for the rest of his career.

[Will Hunting]

The worst thing about Sunday Night Football are Jimmy Fallon commercials.

[Mark Celibate]

:lol Bot-like clock management.

also can’t believe Dak is still choking on the road again when there’s literally zero fans in attendance :lmao

There's your final answer.

Draft QB next year. Prescott can go fuck off in Jacksonville or Carolina.


#NotMyQB

[Will Hunting]

Another Garrettbot similarity is how they made absolutely no adjustments to help a struggling offensive linemen, McCarthy just kept an undrafted rookie out on an island by himself the entire night.

[Will Hunting]

I forgot about det :lol

[Millennial_Messiah]

It's a bad call, but does that really matter? Ramsey is a bitch but he's going to get that call because of his name and notoriety.

The great ones like Rodgers and Mahomes make up for it and make another play that counts. The fact that Prescott can't even come close in a two-minute drive with the game on the line, for the 5th time in 2 years, with arguably the best flight of skill position players on his team, justifies the inescapable truth that Prescott is NOT A $30+ MILLION QUARTERBACK.

I mean, it's the 1st game after a very unconventional offseason but the way the game ended brought back memories of Garrett's Cowboys.

[spurraider21]

:lol giving Dak the keys to the kingdom when all he did, as a rookie, was not wreck the corvette they let him borrow.

:lol at least they see it so they aren't reupping him.
they dont have another QB in the wings who can realistically take over. Dalton is not the future. And they will win enough games to not be able to land a top tier prospect in the draft.

[Spurtacular]

Seem like teams are always bringing their D game against the Seahawks.

[AlexJones]

You have the most talented WR group and you throw 5 yard outs all game. LOL

[AlexJones]

Whoever gets Dak next year is going to win the SB.

[RD2191]

tbh I can't blame dak, for some reason the cowboys are forcing the run same as they did with Garrett. Literally just wasting downs for some unknown reason. this team should be all pass and run when you're up double digits to ice the game. I don't understand what the obsession with running the ball is when you have 3 good to great receivers out there.

[Millennial_Messiah]

That’s a pretty ticky tacky call
Yes, Ramsey is a cunt-ass bitch and a flopper like Chris Paul. But, that wasn't why the Cowboys lost.

The funny thing is... Patriots Brady, Mahomes, Wilson, Rodgers, even Manning (either one) or even Stafford (even today) respond to that by converting a big throw on the next play to save the game. The great QBs persevere and actually give their team a chance, or multiple chance.

The franchise QBs of the NFL don't spend the entire 2-minute do-or-die drill drive throwing 4 yard passes and outs to the flat.

This isn't a Garrett or Jerry or Moore or McCarthy problem. This is a Dak Prescott problem. He just isn't good enough. It's the cold, hard truth.

The Cowboys lost because Prescott couldn't hit chunk plays in a 2-minute drive. Four-yard outs to Cooper or whatever safety valve, that won't get it done. You have to take the 20, 25, 30 yard shot. The only double-digit play the Cowboys converted on the entire drive was on a scramble by Prescott, and he didn't even make the first down marker on that to boot.

That kind of non-clutchness is what separates franchise QBs from backup QBs. Prescott is the latter. We've seen it over and over again. Can't wait until the Cowboys move on this next spring and draft/sign our real QB of the future.

[Trainwreck2100]

they dont have another QB in the wings who can realistically take over. Dalton is not the future. And they will win enough games to not be able to land a top tier prospect in the draft.
True but they can't pay him what he wants, he's not worth it

Literally just wasting downs for some unknown reason. this team should be all pass and run when you're up double digits to ice the game.

Maybe they don't trust the guy throwing it

[Millennial_Messiah]

they dont have another QB in the wings who can realistically take over. Dalton is not the future. And they will win enough games to not be able to land a top tier prospect in the draft.
In all fairness, though, Dalton has won games with Cincinnati in similar situations. I even remember one against the Falcons in Atlanta not too long ago (maybe 2 years max). Similar situation, similar time situation but the Bengals actually needed a TD to save the game, and they got it.

[Millennial_Messiah]

#StartAndrewGregoryDalton

[Millennial_Messiah]

You have the most talented WR group and you throw 5 yard outs all game. LOL
The guys are running their routes. The problem is having a QB with no balls to throw the deep in, the deep corner, the 25 yard crossing route because it *might* not be a guaranteed completion; instead opting for the 4 yard under route and a serious loss on time.

Garrett isn't a great coach; McCarthy is a Super Bowl Champion. But neither are the problem. Romo, under Garrett (and Phillips, and Parcells) came back and won such games. Or, at least got the team into FG range where they had a chance.

Prescott is simply scared, incompetent, and afraidy-cat that a *possible* interception might shave dollars off his upcoming contract, whatever poor sorry-ass team is willing to sign him for the amount he and Todd France want (I don't think it's the Cowboys anymore) and his selfishness is going to deep-six yet another Cowboys season. I can't wait until this 4th-round talent, hip-twerking prick is -- at long last -- off the Cowboys.

so he'll miss roughly half the season, a-la Aaron Rodgers twice ?

[SpursforSix]

You have the most talented WR group and you throw 5 yard outs all game. LOL

Same as last year. They’d have a great drive in the first half by spreading the ball around and picking up yards with the pass. Then inexplicably, they’d get away from it. So either the offense is so easy to figure out that the defense adjusts or they have terrible play calling. Or both. Pretty vanilla in the end. Bend over, I’ll give you vanilla in the end.

[Millennial_Messiah]

This f@ggot quarterback always chokes on the road but is this f@ggot so mentally weak that he’s getting rattled by ambient noise? How do you justify paying this clown?
You don't. You tag him and trade him for a 1st... maybe with luck the Chargers, Jags or someone end up bad enough to need a new QB but not bad enough to land a top pick. Maybe 6-10 ish. So you trade Prescott to them for their 1st and maybe a mid rounder included too. You sell high on his gaudy-ish yardage stats and low interceptions and hope that the dumb franchise you're trading with is dumb enough to not look at things like clutchness, late-game drives etc. Believe me, there are those teams in the league... the Chargers, Jags, and Panthers to name a few.

Whoever gets Dak next year is going to win the SB.
In Madden, maybe, tbh.

[Mark Celibate]

Yes, Ramsey is a cunt-ass bitch and a flopper like Chris Paul. But, that wasn't why the Cowboys lost.

The funny thing is... Patriots Brady, Mahomes, Wilson, Rodgers, even Manning (either one) or even Stafford (even today) respond to that by converting a big throw on the next play to save the game. The great QBs persevere and actually give their team a chance, or multiple chance.

The franchise QBs of the NFL don't spend the entire 2-minute do-or-die drill drive throwing 4 yard passes and outs to the flat.

This isn't a Garrett or Jerry or Moore or McCarthy problem. This is a Dak Prescott problem. He just isn't good enough. It's the cold, hard truth.

The Cowboys lost because Prescott couldn't hit chunk plays in a 2-minute drive. Four-yard outs to Cooper or whatever safety valve, that won't get it done. You have to take the 20, 25, 30 yard shot. The only double-digit play the Cowboys converted on the entire drive was on a scramble by Prescott, and he didn't even make the first down marker on that to boot.

That kind of non-clutchness is what separates franchise QBs from backup QBs. Prescott is the latter. We've seen it over and over again. Can't wait until the Cowboys move on this next spring and draft/sign our real QB of the future.

I gotta agree with you on this. With Romo, you always felt like you were in the game in a one possession game no matter how much time is left. With Prescott, if it's a 2-minute (or less) drill on their side of the field, you know he won't get it done. He'll either run out of time or airmail throws downfield that he has to force because he's just about out of time. His entire career he's choked on the road in these situations....but the baffling thing to me is that there literally is no hostile road atmosphere to deal with this year. Yet this f@ggot still gets spooked by pumped in ambient noise :lmao

Yes, he's worse on the road, but he sucks against any kind of formidable competition in any stadium honestly. How many times has he lost at home to Green Bay and Rodgers.... 4? Buffalo last year at home? Minnesota last year at home? It's not ONLY the road games.

With Romo you always had a chance to come back if you were within reasonable mathematical range, and when they did lose it more often than not wasn't his fault. Usually a missed FG, bad drop, WR fumble, something stupid like that, something like what happened to the Lions today. But you know what? At least Stafford gave the Lions a legit chance to win today. They needed a TD, they started at their own 20 with a little over a minute left and one timeout. And guess what? Stafford was clutch. Of course, the rookie dropped the wide open TD and the Lions lost. But that wasn't Stafford's fault. Stafford is no Mahomes, but he has the Romo comeback mojo.

Romo. At. Least. Gave. Us. A. Chance. Even the few times he did throw late INTs, at least he was pushing the deep ball, giving his guy and the team a chance to win... Prescott doesn't even try. It's sad.

Just like the New Orleans game last year. You know, the one where Prescott barely got to mid-field in a similar situation, and threw a hail mary with all the might of his weak arm that landed about 15 yards shy of the end-zone.

Prescott doesn't have the arm strength.

Prescott doesn't have the courage.

Prescott isn't good enough.

Prescott is not a franchise QB. ®

Look, I get it, it's Covid, nobody is happy; but you, Dak Prescott, have had it far, far better than 99.9999% of everyone else, being the Starting QB of the Dallas Cowboys and playing the game you love for $31 Million US dollars per year. Nobody fucking feels sorry for you and your depressed ass, Dak Prescott.

If troubles persist -- I'd suggest he follows the path of his suicidal brother from this past spring. Nobody likes a pouting, putrid, whiny, braying, bitching waste of carbon space.

ummm.... you see me having seattle losing in buffalo AND miami? (I had that on there because the Seahawks have, in the Wilson era, tended to drop road AFC games even those that are well below their skill level.)

let's face it, the jets and dolphins are bad, the bills are criminally overrated, and the patriots are as limited as they've been since the mid 90s. In the nfc east, half the eagles roster is injured, the cowboys are the cowboys, and the giants and redskins (washington whatevers) still suck ass until further notice.

It may be low margin for error but even you've got to admit it's a criminally easy schedule, outside of the division meetings.

And the seahawks and rams, today, won 2 of the "hardest" out of division games on the slate all year.

[FrostKing]

11-5 division winner

[Millennial_Messiah]

11-5 division winner

that's not an impossible scenario in the NFC West if they're all clustered around there and we might see a three way tiebreaker at 11-5. Maybe with the 4th place team going 9-7 or 10-6. But I don't see them losing that many NFC East and AFC East games. Those divisions flat-out stink.

Hope that doesn't mean the sorry green gay fudge packers get #1 because of an easy division. None of the other NFC North teams looked good yesterday except Trubisky's 4th quarter. But who honestly relies on Trubisky over Aaron Rodgers? It worked in 2018 because their defense was earth-shattering great that year, but it has been very good but not quite great since.

[Millennial_Messiah]

The defense was awful on the first couple drives but the bottom line is, they gave up 20 points to a great offense that is finally fully healthy (NOT the same banged up team the Patriots held to 3 points in the SB and struggled much of last year) with an offensive kid genius at the helm and a new slate of weapons and better O-Line and a freshly motivated Robert Woods and Cooper Kupp fresh off the contract extensions.

Belly-ache about the defense all you want, but they gave up 20 points, most of them early in the game... and got off the field when they needed to. If your QB is unwilling to throw anything longer than 6-7 yard routes the whole game because he's afraid an interception might depreciate the monetary terms of the contract he is seeking, then you need a new quarterback. One that plays for the team, not himself. Plain and simple.

[AlexJones]

Why are people surpirsed Belichick would allow Newton to be himself? He doesn't hate Black players being Black, unlike Popovich.

Idk...Dak looks pretty accurate going downfield to me. I don't know if it's him or the coaches that are dictating all the short throws.
Hopefully it isn't Dak worried about his completion rate in light of getting a contract.

[Millennial_Messiah]

The completion % for sure, and keeping interceptions to as near zero as possible.

The Gallup/Ramsey play was a bad call. Ramsey pulled a Chris Fall/Derek Fisher. Ramsey is a diva drama queen who is still butt-hurt about the Cowboys drafting Zeke over him in '16. Just like the Hillary lovers; #stillasshurt about 2016. That bitch should be fined and suspended for flopping, tbh.

But it still doesn't excuse Prescott for officially not going deep the whole game (since, ya know, the one to Gallup didn't officially count). And intermediate routes, which should be the core strength of having Gallup/Cooper/Lamb all on the field at once. They HAVE to hit the 15-20 yard plays consistently.

The problem I'm identifying is that Prescott is scared of throwing against zone defenses that aren't Charmin-soft prevent zone. If it's man to man there's minimal risk of interception like on the Gallup/Ramsey play. But any kind of "confusing" zone? 4 yards and a cloud of dust, all night baby. Gotta protect that contract against any turnovers.

Again...idk...in the first half, he made some very good throws downfield. He's going to get paid regardless so I hope he's not letting that enter into his head. I'm assuming he took out massive insurance like Cousins to cover himself if he gets hurt. So he either signs a big contract or gets the franchise tag $. If he stays on the franchise tag, he should be covered by insurance.

They weren't really downfield though. The stat sheet might say Gallup had a 24 yard completion and Lamb a 33 yard completion, but in reality those were 10 yard throws that the receiver took for the extra yards. The Gallup spin move along the sideline against Ramsey was especially impressive.

The problem is is that Prescott is too scared to throw intermediate/deep against zone coverage (particularly cover-evens) unless the receiver is WIIIIIIIIIIIIDE open, and that's a problem. You have to have a guy who will make those throws. Sure, you don't want a bunch of interceptions, but... no risk-it, no biscuit.

rofl, reminded me of that one game against the Falcons a few years ago when Tyron Smith was out and his backup gave up 6 sacks to some journeyman defensive end because The Bot refused to adjust and give him help. Funniest part was when he left Dak in the game when it was a blowout only for him to take more of a beating. Didn't even have the programming to adjust and bring in the backup quarterback :lol

The Ravens WERE that mediocre team that flipped teams every year during the early Flacco era. Outside 2012, I don't think I would say Joe ever outplayed Tannehill, but the Ravens still jumped on good teams with solid gameplanning, a stout defense and a beast rushing attack. Tenn beat all four of the top AFC seeds in the same year. Baltimore should be sick that they lost, but it shouldn't make them question the core of their existence or anything.
