Bob Sturm: Cowboys' loss shows Brandon Weeden is out of his league
Overall thoughts
They needed to play mistake-free and not give away anything today to have a chance to beat a pretty good football team. Despite a lot of things going well in the early going, it was not close to a clean...
Fucking Mariota was way more aggressive in his first NFL start than Weeden was today. Weeden is a veteran QB with a strong arm and several NFL starts under his belt yet they tried to protect him like he was a skittish rookie.
I was thinking the exact same thing. we called that TO way too early, because a quick score on the next play would leave them plenty of time to get in FG range, which is exactly what happened. panicky Garrett fucks up again.
Cowboys thoughts: Defense fails; Brandon Weeden can't make downfield throws
ARLINGTON -- It's hard to believe that the Cowboys led 21-7 at one point Sunday. But the good spirits inside AT&T Stadium quickly changed as Dallas' defense couldn't find a way to stop Devonta Freeman or Julio Jones...
secondary was raped worse than Jodie Foster on a pinball machine, while we got gashed on the ground by a backup to a rookie. you can't automatically count on Hardy and Gregory to atone for so many deficiencies.
not really. a lot of short, high percentage throws and receivers making runs after the catch. no running game in the second half didn't help his cause.
