I saw at least 6 calls in the first half that did not make any sense at all.

Why the hell were they running the Wildcat?

Daron Bland was the highlight of this game. Parsons with 2.5 sacks was nice also. Offense was just "okay" but to be fair Carolina is a bad team because they have no offense, their defense is top-10 in yards allowed per game. They have some great defensive players.

I am excited for Bland to get a record breaking 5th pick-6 this season. That would be really special. I hope it happens. Still a lot of season left so it's very possible.

They gave Micah full credit for that 3rd sack.

Neither, the game just went exactly how I thought it would go. Cowboys would end up dominating.

First of all if you are going to run wildcat, take the QB out of the game and bring in another TE or O-lineman. Jesus.

There were some good moments but I didn't think we played all that well. Like I mentioned earlier, McCarthy had a handful of head scratching play calls. Dak threw into double coverage too much trying to force the ball to Lamb. Got lucky a couple of times but had no turnovers which is a good thing. Who was the WR that had a bout 5 drops? Was that Tolbert or Turbin? That's an issue that needs to be cleaned up. I did not like the way the defense got gashed in the running game. That is concerning to me even though they were lights out on passing downs. Offense was only 2 for 4 in the red zone against the worst team in the league. Need to do better.

Dallas has the #1 point differential in the NFL +127

#2 overall in points per game (behind only Miami)
#5 overall in points allowed per game

On paper this team is top notch but it's hard to care about that when losing to SF the way we did.

I think realistically for the NFC it's:

1. San Francisco

2A. Philly
2B. Dallas

I think we are even with Philly, but still not as good as SF.

I think the Cardinals have was just a fluke, and with that said, that's how we could get past SF, just have a fluke game. It isnt likely, but it happens.

As Parcells always said… get into the tournament and then see what happens.
