It might legit be the script.
Eagles going through it now.
Niners had their 3 game skid.
Chiefs had some trouble until yesterday.
Boys haven't had a "bad stretch" yet...but this game felt like one of those where Dallas was gonna lose no matter what.
If Dak/CeeDee/TP make plays, the refs were gonna throw flags for holding on the o-line. If the defense changes momentum, they'd give Buffalo a second chance. AFC is falling apart and without Burrow, they gotta make sure Baltimore/Lamar don't walk to the SB. LJ might get past one of Mahomes/Allen but both is tough. They need white hype in that bracket.
Sounds like the SB is either gonna be Chiefs vs Cowboys or Niners vs Bills.

Team loss.
Even KB and Third Leg Greg kept saying that no receivers were open. Like Dak was holding the ball but there's no one to throw to.
Dallas needed to run the ball because TP was getting yards. Run the ball AND play the field position game.
THE PROBLEM? Dallas D can't stop a stop sign. You can't play conservative if your defense is trash. Buffalo realized that Josh Allen is too mistake prone. If he drops back 50x, Bland and Gilmore will snatch a couple.....why risk it for the biscuit when you can let James, Cook.....
That is the fundamental weakness of Dallas. They can't play physical, especially on defense and big/physical squads can just run it down their throat until they quit. Micah is a linebacker in a 4-3 but he's used like a 3-4 DE. I'm concerned that they don't think he has the skills to be an actual LB but they may need to use him like a MLB. Can he cover tight ends, and swarm to the ball carrier like an actual LB?
Feels like they trained him to rush the passer but haven't given him the tools to succeed as a true LB...and the defense will suffer for it. He gotta be the QB of the front 7. Fukk the sacks and rack up tackles. 250 lb breh running a 4.39 needs to be a tackling machine.

These eagles fans are just hermits on this board. All last week they were ready to commit that and as soon as we lost they are crawling out their hole trying to mock.You just got blown out by them Dem Boyz tho.

Personnel issue and a coach refusing to adjust
We have sufficient defensive personnel for like 27-28 teams in the NFL. They seemed satisfied with that and are content burying their head in the sand about what that means come playoff time.
I still can't believe they flat out gave them 18 pts in that 1st half. It's just unconscionable when you think about it.

Yep. Passing league and we catered our defense to stop the Pass.
Whats concerning is Buffalo isnt a running team like that though
