Cowboys need to run the ball more


Agreed. They have no running game. The entire offense revolves around CD

I thought they ran the ball well before the weather delay. But they stopped running in the 4th Q. Which is probably why they lost this game.

Yup. Dallas obviously wins with Jaydon Blue.

Welcome back!

Carter was ejected for spitting on dak however the replay confirmed dak actually spit first. I’m sure it will be all over twitter etc
Dak spit on the ground. Carter spit directly on Dak. Not the same thing lol


Dak provoked him

Dak outsmarted him, mostly. He spat on the ground, he laughed in Carter's face, didn't flinch or have any visible reaction upon being spat on, gets guy ejected. 10/10 bait from Dak, didn't think he had that in him.

Last year CJGJ literally said something to another player in front of a ref and that player slapped CJGJ so hard that his helmet came off. Then CJGJ was ejected and the other player was not ejected or even flagged. At that time a lot of people, on this website especially, were saying things like: “well, CJGJ shouldn’t have provoked him…”

Read on Twitter

keep that same energy. The guy that provokes the incident should be punished, right…???

I’m not even defending Jalen Carter on this one because he’s a **** idiot, but the double standards on this one is insane, especially when considering how people reacted to the CJGJ incident last year.

By the way after the game, Jalen Carter took responsibility, didn’t BS about it, and dak lied and played the victim. If you provoke somebody and that person retaliates, then you’re both **** idiots.

If Carter is suspended another game it will be ridiculous.

$50K fine and move on.

I don't like how Dak smiled pre game and did his whole charade.

He was ten feet away from Carter when he spit on the ground lol. Dak was clearly **** talking but Carter was going to the Cowboys huddle while the rest of his team was focused on the injured teammate.

I didn't see those 2 1st round picks anywhere on the field last night

Hopefully they show up down the stretch, cause the Cowboys looked pretty good without them, they really might only be 1 player away.

He technically already served a one game suspension since it was literally before he even played a single down. Only difference is I don’t think he will lose a game check because he was active for the game. For this reason, I think just giving him a really big fine makes sense but I can also see the NFL making an example out of him.


The guy that hit CJGJs helmet off last year wasn’t suspended or fined, so we will see.

If they had a star pass rusher, they probably would’ve won.

This is just rationalizing.
The eagles weren’t passing well.
It was the running game. Parsons isn’t great against the run.
Plus they didn’t want to trade him. He forced their hand.

AJ brown and devonta smith were both clearly still injured, but they weren’t missing Dallas week. Despite this, Jalen hurts still completed 19/23 passes. Not very many yards, sure, but he kept drives going with both his arm and his legs. A pass rusher would’ve definitely helped.

Also you guys keep saying the rush defense will be better without parsons. If we are going off of 2024 team defense averages, 158 rushing yards given up would be 2nd worst in the NFL.

According to Dak (and the video) Carter was trash talking Booker when the Cowboys were in the huddle. That’s when Dak said something to him. So yea Carter actually provoked it.
