2024 Dallas Cowboys season

And I really wonder, and I f- think about this, not that the Commanders didn't know the rule, but in the final minute, what makes sense from that organizational failure top to bottom is, "Hey, we have to make sure we bleed the clock as much as we can.

We don't wanna give them time to get a last couple of plays," with what went on with Dallas and, and Baltimore and Philadelphia and Jacksonville in everybody's mind, right? We gotta make sure that, we gotta make sure we don't leave time on the clock, so when we kick the field goal, there's no time for them to do anything, right? 'Cause if you think about that, and you think that, whoa, maybe they just blanked for a second that the game is over when you kick the field goal, everything makes sense.

Why didn't the, why didn't the Commanders just spike it? Why are they running a play that's just gonna gain an extra two yards, right? Why did the team not really run up to the line of scrimmage as much if they weren't trying to still bleed the clock? I'm just wondering if they had, if, if that was a brain cramp for a moment, that they, they thought, "Well, okay, it's the end of the game," and not remembering that it's overtime.

Again, not knowing the rule, but just you get caught up in the emotions of it's the end of the game, we're getting ready to kick a field goal and win, and, and, and we have to get out there, we have to make sure we don't give them enough time.

What kind of pressure does Pittsburgh put on teams? I mean, I think that's the key.

Dallas put no pressure on the kid, he was comfortable the whole game.

He was.

Every time the Packers blitzed him, he melted down.

Yep.

And he won't pay coaches, and this is what you get.

I think Dallas having more time off before this game is a negative against the Packers, the, the more time off here.

Why do you think so?

53 and a half is about as big as it gets in the NFL, and I think this, this week it is the highest number by a smidge.

Dallas-Green Bay rates like a game that could be a shootout too.

Yep.

But yeah, I mean, can't wait.

Uh, the weapons in Philadelphia really limited as well.

You've got Dameon Pierce at running back.

Uh, a ton of Dallas Goedert this week.

I think that's sort of, if there's any sort of winner here, I think it could be Dallas Goedert.

I took Buffalo.

Dallas is at Green Bay.

Yeah, that game worries me, but I still don't really think Dallas is that, that great.

I took Green Bay at Green Bay.

Dallas' defense is terrible.

I can- until they get better, I can't trust them.

I'll take Green Bay as well, even though I think Dallas' offense should be much better than what we saw on this Thur- this past Thursday night.

Thursday night games are awful for everybody.

No, he...

Well, he played against Dallas and the Giants, and became the-

In 24?

Yeah, in 24.

Troy Aikman, you know, doesn't sound like him and Buck may ever gonna last long together.

They've been 25 years, but maybe not much more.

So he w- Aikman was on a Dallas radio station yesterday.

He's asked a point-blank question about him and Buck, and you can just tell by his answer him and Buck are not in a good place.

So I don't know.

And then they got Dallas.

That's gonna be, uh...

They'll have a, what? A day in between that game, so they'll be okay.
