This team is gonna be the death of me before September is even over.
How am I even supposed to feel after a game like that??
They kicked the Cowboys teeth in for the better part of 3 quarters.
They had 233 yards on the ground alone in those first 3 quarters and had built a 28-6 lead.
lDefense was stout and constantly made Dak Prescott look uncomfortable.
The 4th quarter started with the Cowboys turning the ball over on downs pretty quickly.
Then the sky started falling.
I mean what the fuck do we gotta do to get this thing right?
Prescott shredded us in the middle of the field throughout the 4th.
The onside kick was obviously where everyone’s heart sank.
Why can’t this team do the little fucking things?
Zay wasn’t even under much duress when he botched it.
Why is every other team able to figure out ways to put games away and we can’t?
But I don’t care.
This team should have so much conditioning at this point because they’re constantly doing this.
And there has to be a solution or a shift in mentality or something.
The offense has been nearly as culpable in these collapses in the defense.
Back in 2019, they ran a masterclass of closing out games by shoving on the ground.
3rd down featured such a familiar miss where Lamar threw it high and wide of Mark Andrews.
Ultimately they punted on 4th and 3 (which…
I would not have hated them going for).
Sure enough, Dallas marched right down the field.
91 yards in 2 minutes and 33 seconds to cut it to 28-25 with 2:53 left.
Same old fucking story.
Ravens get the ball back.
Surely another 3 and out, right?
One more Lamar dash up the middle for another first down and that was ballgame.
You cannot expect to consistently build multiple score leads, especially against good teams.
Neither are the onslaught of penalties.
They have 31 penalties for 278 yards through 3 games.
That is horrrrrific and it’s gotta change.
We’re 1-2 and have two more tough ones right in front of us.
