[@cataterat8]

Exactly what I said mfs picking sides

[@ryan_hayes]

Any fair minded person who saw the game yesterday would admit the refs did have some say in the outcome of the game. We will never truly know how that game would have changed if not for a couple of bad calls that even romo and the tv ref where saying was bad calls, but it was a factor. 2 touchdowns taken off the board for ticky tacky calls that most refs would not make through the course or a season.

[@cataterat8]

@@ryan_hayes they also took multiple drives. Took a pick that gave the chargers 8 points A chargers player throws a cowboy player into the punter and gets Flaged amari cooper gets pulled to the ground and no pi . Also Micah parsons was getting held the whole time

[@ryan_hayes]

@@cataterat8 I didn’t see the Punter being thrown by a charger player but I’ll give you the parsons being held the the right tackle. The back up right tackle was awful after bulaga couldn’t make the game with back injury. They should have gave him help instead of going one on one. But then I realized If you have to have help with a linebacker converted to DE then you probably aren’t good enough to play RT. Bottom line refs were awful on both sides. 20 penalties between both teams.

[@hottakeapproved6340]

Everyone complains about the sack Parsons had on Herbert (stopped for forward progression), but if you watch the replay Herbert was about 3 to 4 yards short of even reaching the line of scrimmage so it would have been a penalty anyway On another note Quinn is utilizing the "bend but don't break" style defense which so far this season has shown good results in terms of redzone defense and turnovers let's see if the players become more dynamic with the way they are being used as they get more comfortable Goooo Cowboys!!!

[@bboynation101]

I agree on this

[@quanbrooklynkid7776]

Cowboys defense needs to play better.. they should have won by a lot more, still have their won that game

[@MrDJAK777]

Offense needs to take advantage on the turnovera the defense is already giving them they'd look better if we didn't go 3 and out or turn it right back over 90% of the time. If they at least got a couple first downs to give the defense more rest (increasing the odds they get more turnovers/pressure when do come back on) it'd help and if our offense start actually scoring off the majority of turnovers it'd force the opposing offense into being one dimensional which is easier for our defense to face as they get less looks and can rule out runs quicker making coverage simpler.

@@hehel5163 I mean if you want your sports to be the equivalent of a Jerry Springer show, then yes Max will seem boring. At the end of the day, one dude is about theatrics with poor analysis, and the other is about good analysis without the theatrics. If you don't care about learning about the sport being discussed and just be entertained, then Stephen A is your guy. If dissecting a sport, analyzing its intricacies, and increasing your knowledge is your thing, then Max is your guy. I'm not going to say one is better than the other since they're doing two different things. And there's nothing wrong preferring one over the other. Just don't pretend that Stephen A is a better analyst, because he's not, he's just a better entertainer (though I think his loud mouth shtick is getting old).
