Lol dude Play ain’t wrong

you're right, it was the quarterback who built up a 20+ point lead who is at fault for losing the game, the loss is definitely not attributable to the coach who has been doing this since 2001


e: like, how do Eagles fans of all people not remember Andy's second half coaching collapses in the playoff. Alex Smith isn't a great QB by any measure, but he's not the main reason they lost those games

Play’s right in general in stressing the importance of a functional clock-eating offense, but you’re right in the specifics of Andy’s problems closing out games. A functional clock-eating offense requires a functional clock-eating coach

Yeah I like to :aslol: at the Cowboys as much as the next man but scapegoating Dak is nonsense.

Play
Apr 25, 2006

Strong stroll for a mangy stray
All he really says is that Dak held them back in that week 1 game, which is true, and that it's something to watch going forward. He wasn't making reads well, he wasn't passing well, he was missing wide open plays and he wasn't making adjustments on the line of scrimmage. I mean, that offense was garbage but it shouldn't be that bad.

The video also dumped pretty hard on the offensive playcalling, which I think is probably the more important point than one bad game from Dak. There was no adjustment, the plays weren't effective against the kind of defense the Panthers run, and running repeatedly directly into stacked boxes is just dumb and not how you win games. They've made themselves badly one-dimensional.

I think tomorrow we'll find out when they play the Giants whether this is going to be the norm this year or if they can actually get something going. On the bright side, I feel like the Cowboys defense might be kind of legit.

My impression is that the Cowboys have no receivers or tight ends to speak of, and idiot coaching, so Dak almost doesn't matter either way.

True. Dak did look bad last week (and a lot of last season), though. He's very likely to flame out this year entirely and start another 7-8 years of looking for a quarterback to provide zero support.

If Dallas gets a competent offensive coordinator who is not actually the QB changing plays at the LOS he will get a head coaching job so fast it won't matter long term.

They were really bad on offense outside of one play in the first half and one drive at the very end. It was 3.5 quarters of garbage offense and the only reason dallas won today is NY has turnstyles for an offensive line.

It’s been 7 years since 2011. That’s almost a decade of spectacular failure.

I mean, as bad as the cowboys are, yes? The eagles are better, but they're hurt. They should still win the division but because everyone is going to be 7-9 or worse.

I think I was just in a bad mood watching the game yesterday. Looking back on the highlights, the Eagles are the same team they've been. They are just so hurt right now, there's hardly any playmakers out there. And now with Wallace possibly done for the year, it's probably gonna get rough for a week or so until Wentz comes back.

Of course...there's....always...



Low risk, people value draft picks too much. I know Gordon likes the ganja, but going from a Browns locker room that's won 2 games and tied 1 in 2 years to the Super Bowl champions is quite the difference. I see this being just as likely the Browns Being Dumb as it could be Gordon loving up again.

Is Josh Gordon’s issue really just weed or is there something incredibly more serious going on? I honestly haven’t been following his drama other than casually lolling at the Browns. The Eagles badly need unhurt weapons right now but I don’t know if bringing someone in with a host of issues is going to help if he never plays.

Or maybe his biggest issue is being on the Browns.

Gordon is on record as saying he’s been on drugs in every single game of his career back to high school.
