I dont know about the pokes this season. First quarter they looked like dogshit and should have been down by 14 straight out of the gate save a holding penalty. Then somewhere around the middle of the second they found their ass and started playing decent ball.
I dont know but it was like someone hit Ctrl-Alt-Del and they just reverted.
This is a very young team and they do have some growing to do. I wanna see how they show up in other divisional games as well as against the Chiefs. I think the Chiefs are the real deal this year. If they can hang with KC...
Pros
-Dak finds a way
-Deep Offense
-Def Coord, Marinelli is REAL good at utilizing his young defensive player's skill sets in schemes.
Cons
-Def backfield is young and thin.
-O-line is not getting the movement off the ball that they did last year
-Chaz Green is getting consistently beaten
As for the kneeling business. I really dont think the Cowboys give to shits about an of it. That is not the atmosphere that is encouraged or even thought about in the organization. At least that is the vibe I am getting from the players (Dak, Dez, Witten).
