Matts4313 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Well fellas - this went exactly how I thought. 2-2 on my predictions, lol. Sorry for your loss of draft capital. Good luck the rest of the season, but feel free to lose the division to the Eagles. @Woz => looks like you are signed up for mafia my friend.

ARTMONK HOF Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 (edited) As of right now, we have the 10th pick in the draft. If we stay in this area, maybe a trade down is the call if it presents itself. Edited October 25, 2020 by ARTMONK HOF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offbyone Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Couple take aways- Dallas D is horrendous. As @MKnight82 said, this is what our offense is intended to look at. It was efficient and had good tempo, but sadly if this is the goal it is a very unexplosive offense. The dallas offense is undeniably loaded with talented skill players. But for the last 4 years, that offense has lived off that offensive line. Now it has crumbled and it likely has no path to success this year. That was fun to watch. Kyle Allen beat dallas and thereby goes into the WFT notable names. But the unintended negative consequence is that that a group of fans will now obsess about Kyle Allen much like they did Colt McCoy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripsean21 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 It was nice to just see this team do their job and make the plays that were there to make. We beat Dallas so that’s always cool but ultimately we beat Dallas and we gotta see if maybe this team can build off of this game. Their should be some confidence everyone made plays so it was a team win. Hopkins needs to get away from this building take a vacation come back and get his kick back. I’m not going to pull for us to tank you don’t build a winning culture trying to assure yourself draft position. Simply put we need to keep trying to develop the guys we have and we need to keep hitting on the selections we do have like we have been. Mini Luke/ Cole man this guy is electric. Was the player I was most excited to see with this staff and he’s on his way!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been mediocre to bad. Our offense worked because of Dak. Our offense died with his ankle. Defensively we were horrendous from play 1 of the season.

We were 18th in 2017. 27th in 2018. 2019 was really good. I think we ranked 4th? Average ranking of 16th. Mediocre. Obvi depending on source, PFF/DVOA/ESPN all had us at different spots.

Obviously Travis Frederick medical then retirement. La'el Collins is overrated? Is Smith declining? The media drools all over these guys explain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of medical/injuries. Smith/Fredrick (and Loony, his back up)/Collins have all been injured a *lot* the last few years. And now Martin is hurt. 4. Our LG is extremely mediocre and he is the only one who plays consistently. 5. Something not discussed much, but our TEs cant block worth a damn. Witten could, which is part of the reason we did well last year. Edited October 25, 2020 by Matts4313 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
