As a lifelong Local Cowboys Fan a few factors have led to this winning streak. # 1 getting Healthy on offense and Defense. Getting Bland, Parsons and Cooks back was huge for us. Another thing that most Cowboys fans hate to and refuse to admit was Zach Martin going down. These last 3 or 4 games prove one thing to me. The problem and issue with our O line this year was Martin he has lost a step or 2 and was throwing the timing off on our blocking schemes. In comes a younger more athletic better Moving Brock Hoffman that is able to keep pace with the rest of our line and get to the 2nd level and open up Monster holes. Hence the reason for the Dowdle explosion. The run game has in return opened up the passing game. Which unfortunately Dak never got to enjoy and reap the benefits of that. He was constantly getting pressure and sacked the ball was a hot potato. Lamb is in rhythm too. Missing camp really hurt his and Daks connection and timing due to his lack of being in football shape to start the season off. He is in stride and in game shape now and it shows.
Your in point with everything but also don't forget this man has a huge point the team looks better with rush at QB rush doesn't put you in a bad spot to lose rush only issue is he's not that mobile
@emmanuel3316 I understand your point but I'm telling you Martin being on that line made all the difference in the world that and Terence Steele is absolute 🗑. That right side was vulnerable. Dak was having to rush throws and scramble amd run for his life and with his gunslinger Brett Favre/Romo mentality he has thats a bad combo. Rush is a solid backup for sure. Let's not even act like Rush in in the same stratosphere of QB as Dak is though...😆
The defense learning a completely new system doesn’t get talked about enough in regards to the first 5 weeks. Them boys were getting lit up. Year 2 Zim defense has a ton of potential
The cooper is ball protection no he isn’t a better scrambler than Dak no but as far as protecting the ball and not throwing it to the other team is most definitely better. If no one sees that you’re not watching the game. I’m a big Dak supporter but he not going to be able to come back from the surgery and be like he once was when he broke his leg which sucked he’s been shy and don’t blame him Rush can be a great quarterback with more snaps comes more knowledge there again not taking anything from Prescott cause I think he’s a great quarterback we will see next year. By the way I’m a long life Cowboys fan since the days of Don Meredith and Rodger the dodger and so on.
As a dallas fan this team is definitely playing harder and looks better with Cooper at helm but more so this defense took waaay to long to wake up this season compares to last season
Way too long to wake up??? Half the D has been injured and/or on IR for most of the season. Diggs and Bland have been on the field with each other only twice the whole season! Bland came back after 10-12 games, Diggs is out again and could be out next year too, Overshown out and probably next year too, Micha is back after 4 games, DLaw out most of the season and not coming back, Kneeland out, Kendricks missed several games not sure when he will be back, etc, etc, etc! Not to mention a new DC as well.
Both of Baker's TDs were absolutely blatant holds by the RT on Parsons lol. It was pretty much all game but those 2 were terrible lol. Dude had Parsons in a headlock both fuckin times
Should have seen the hit Wilson put on Evans. Trying to put his WRs in the morgue lol. It was every bit as hard as that hit the TE took from the rookie LB. He absolutely smashed Evans. Evans sat down a couple plays after that one.
Coop is doing good because the playbook has been dumbed down. They can't use the whole playbook on him like they do with Dak. Any playoff team would destroy this team if they went in. Rather have the high draft pick each round and come back stronger next year! Yet, they keep winning, so the draft pick may not be as high as I would like, but it will be higher than what we usually get every year. Plus, they found out a couple hours before the game they got eliminated and decided they were going to be spoilers! Appreciate the reaction!
Baker was throwing hospital passes all game, no reason for the Dallas defense to have played that hard there but for some reason they decided to show up only after they were eliminated. Made for a pretty fun game to watch though
Blair the only reason rush is doing good is because the defense finally settled in . How do u expect dak and the Play action , Rpos to work if the defense was allowing 30+ in the first 6 weeks ? And they had all our running back sharing snaps . Rico JUST started getting all the work . There’s layers to this , you know that
Dallas was way more injured when Dak was playing and dallas was 32nd in rushing,32nd in Wr seperarion,had more sacks allowed, had less turnovers, ints and more points allowed when Dak was QB. Dak was literally carrying the offense with way less.
That's a damn lie and you know it. If you payed any attention ever, you wouldn't be saying some nonsense like this. It's clear you're either NOT a Cowboys fan or you're a casual. Last season Dak was the runner up MVP, Dak is one of the best QBs in the league every year, even when he threw 15 picks. If you don't understand football, just say that my dude.
Rush has been a FA many times, not once was he asked about or picked up, kid has NINE fumbles since taking over this season, incredibly inaccurate lmao, so it's BLATANTLY obvious you only watch highlights 😂 glad I figured you out, because in all honesty, not a single football fan would take Rush over Dak 😂
@@KngDotyou must be high..... nobody ever said Cooper Rush was better than Dak. It's really a mute point either way because, while I believe Dak actually is a better QB, Dak will NEVER win the big game. I like Dak as a person, but he isn't that guy.
It's kinda hard to trust your other receivers when they consistently drop some of the easiest passes and when your WR2 can hardly eclipse 100+ yard games. Not to mention his O line at the time were letting people through easier than the South Border so of course he's gotta try to force it to his most reliable option. Pair this with the fact that once Dak got hurt, all of a sudden the coaching staff figured out that Dowdle is the current RB1 and they're finally drawing up plays that make sense instead of a bunch of jet sweeps.
Sorry but no the difference between em is rush actually looks at his receiver and he looks at CD dak wouldn’t that’s y dak n CD was always gettin in heated exchanges on the sidelines cuz dak wouldn’t look his way or throw da ball to him
Dak is better let’s not forget wat he did the past three seasons especially last season 😮💨 dude was a dawg cooper rush is js doing his job but if our defense wounds played like this the whole season then we woulda been better hadda better record and more but next year we’ll see how it plays out
If you hire a contractor to do a remodel and he does a terrible job, would you hire him again? not only rehire him, but for an exaggerated cost to make more of a mess? Prescott
I’m a huge Cowboys fan bro I think it’s more that offense of line is holding up better 60 is not in there so not alot penalty but can’t lie cooper finally getting his accuracy getting better cause a lot of his balls be a little sus sometimes
Since Dak is injuried and cooper is in the reason they are playing better is because they simplified the offense for him. I don’t know why they don’t do this for dak aswell. Even Cam Newton on his pod said that the more simple the better.
Dak is undoubtedly the more accurate and talented qb however with rush playing he has a better run game and line ceedee is hitting his stride not to take anything away from rush he might just get him a chance to start for a team next year but Dak is still a top end nfl qb in my opinion
First off, the offense isn't better without Dak, the offense is better because McCarthy is actually doing what he was suppose to have done since the start of the season and that is to target Lamb more and more importantly get the running game going. That means him making Rico RB1 as we all said from the get go!! Secondly Zak Martin wasn't the problem per say because he was playing on an injured ankle all season and no, he hasn't lost a step, but just has been hurt and is equally comparable to be fair. Cooper Rush only really excels when he has a running game and in this case he had to throw the ball more this game but Lamb definitely bailed him out a lot of times in this game. Rush would've had like 3 ints in this game if it wasn't for Tampa dropping the ball. If Dak was playing we would've had 40 by halftime and he would've been sitting down on the bench before the 3rd quarter ended!! Some of ya'll don't know football nor this team and some that are even Cowboys fans sound stupid too at times. I'm talking about those, "I only watch us play" type fans that don't pay attention to the team any other time. You just make the REAL FANS and the team look stupid when stupidity comes out of your mouths!!
At 5:10 with dak thats a td because he leads ceedee and the ball isn't behind him... we look better because our defense is healthy and zack martin isnt on the oline. As much as i hate losing zack martin he was hurting us. Dak was running for his life with martin in there... We got bland, parsons, kneeland and cooks back and im sure im missing a couple. Plus the defense learned a brand new system and finally are picking it up. These highlight videos dont show the dropped ints and bad passes... its highlights! Watch the whole game and maybe you'll see that cooper rush isnt a better qb than dak lol. There were some nasty hits in this game too that didnt make the highlights. Big hits... edit: and it was 3rd and 40 because Parsons stripped baker and the ball went back that far lol... we recovered but it was outta bounds so it was 3rd and 40.
I wish the Cowboys would scheme Dak the way they scheme Cooper. It’s like they make it harder for Dak on purpose. Do they know if they were to give him help like they give rush help we would have way better success?
I lost a lot of respect for Dak after not signing for a lower contract and demanding to be the highest paid player in NFL history…ok that sounds fine right? but then RIGHT AFTER that he has the NERVE to say he doesn’t play for money, he never has. WHAT.THE.FUCK. Get out of here with that man. No wonder the team plays harder for Orange C.Rush.
cowboys play better with Rush, because he a better-read option then Dak, Dak hold the ball too long and Rush throw it quicker than Dak, that's why Dak has a lot of interceptions. P.S. Dak is an average QB, top 17, not a 10. Cooper Rush, I don't rate because he not a starter for the Cowboys. I would have not sign Dak the first time, he's not a leader.
If they'd have put in Rush when they were losing, they would still in the hunt. DAK is an overpaid, overrated QB that has lost first or second round with him. They have been eliminated but they played like contenders.
Bland stole that football faster than the Grinch stole Christmas. 😂

“They keep winning”is a crazy title 😭
As a dallas fan this team is definitely playing harder and looks better with Cooper at helm but more so this defense took waaay to long to wake up this season compares to last season
Yeah f around and give Dak a competent defense and a running game and he’s a lock for the #1 or 2 offense
Way too long to wake up??? Half the D has been injured and/or on IR for most of the season. Diggs and Bland have been on the field with each other only twice the whole season!

We suck this year, but the Washington and Bucs games were 2 of the most entertaining of the year. Them boys were hittin last night😂
I love how Dallas plays hard when they have no more pressure to make the post season LOL
Both of Baker's TDs were absolutely blatant holds by the RT on Parsons lol. It was pretty much all game but those 2 were terrible lol. Dude had Parsons in a headlock both fuckin times
You know the NFL got to nerf Parsons.
3rd and 40 wasn't from flags. Sack fumble. Ball went backwards like 20 yards. Dallas recovered but they reviewed and said he was out of bounds after
Crazy that they cut a top 5 play of the game
Marist #35 is a damn DAWG. Love that guy. And JLew been a dawg.
3:46 he was doing the grinch joint😂 dallas posted it on ig
9:21 how come that is not a flag for holding Parsons?
parsons never gets calls, if you look at some stats or if you look at every play he gets held so much with no calls
FRRRRRR, i was so mad
Rarest occurrence in sports
@@dantran5478 for real, there was a lot of holding on Micha
Been waitin for your reaction!!!! That last takeaway and the td interception were crazy
Should have seen the hit Wilson put on Evans. Trying to put his WRs in the morgue lol. It was every bit as hard as that hit the TE took from the rookie LB. He absolutely smashed Evans. Evans sat down a couple plays after that one.
*GO COWBOYS!*
They had Turpin in at RB 2x last week and he had around 25 yards between the 2 runs
This was a hard hitting game on both sides
11:37 mayflield got sack and fumbled and Dallas did not get the ball
I've seen some hard hitting games but this game took the apple home.
McMillan is a rookie receiver that was awesome at the university of Washington..
The first td was from the grinch lmao that’s why he did it😂😂
3:48 I think he was doing the grinch dance 😂
GO COWBOYS 🔥
This was a hard hitting game
Dem boys got nothing to lose it's all out now DC4L 💯
i feel like the call plays are better for a back up and when its Dak they try to make him do too much..
That 3rd and 40 hit actually looks worse each time he replayed the thing. And the disrespect from Liufau just standing over him.
Cowboys got back Brandon cooks which led to the passing game being more effective and also Dak is up in the box helping Cooper rush with plays
Coop is doing good because the playbook has been dumbed down. They can't use the whole playbook on him like they do with Dak. Any playoff team would destroy this team if they went in. Rather have the high draft pick each round and come back stronger next year!

Remember Dak didn’t have the weapons rush is good but it’s the defense playing a lot better
DBlair, there wasn't 4 straight penalties, there was a penalty, 2 sacks and a forced fumble that got them to 3rd and 40.
Bro. There were a ton a hits by both teams. There’s one where Wilson lit up Evans. The Turpin running into Vea 😵😵💀
Baker was throwing hospital passes all game, no reason for the Dallas defense to have played that hard there but for some reason they decided to show up only after they were eliminated. Made for a pretty fun game to watch though

Fr we had to run our 4 minute offense the entirety of games because we’d be down 2+ scores in the blink of an eye
@@chasedyer5950 fuckin 30 pts before the half 😭😂
@@eddieo315 Crazy work. And people want to blame Dak😂. Think year 2 Zim defense will go crazy if even moderately healthy
Dak holds the ball waaay too long
Nah cause baker fumbled Thts how they got 3rd and 40
1:34 facts and I'm a cowboys fan
They play better because when Dak is in, the team hides behind him. When he's out, they have to play better as well as the play calling
I am DC4L fan and I think that this shows that there are issues with the team with Dak at QB. 😊
11:35 i dont really remember but parsons had a 20 yard sack so i'm guessing there was a couple penalties
Dallas was way more injured when Dak was playing and dallas was 32nd in rushing,32nd in Wr seperarion,had more sacks allowed, had less turnovers, ints and more points allowed when Dak was QB. Dak was literally carrying the offense with way less.
O-Line is blocking better and the defense are playing way better
The cowboys offense looks better with Rush vs Prescott because Rush spreads the ball around. Dak acts like the only receiver is Lamb.

Team doesn't trust interception prescott
I like Coop better than Dak. He looks like a real pocket QB. All he needed was reps and confidence. I would prefer to start a season with Coop.
The buccaneers second touchdown did anyone see Micah Parsons getting hold?

This ain’t the first time that it’s happened. I think rush is better than Dak.
Cooper Rush is better than Dak
Coop looks wayyy better than Dak that’s coming from a Dallas fan
He's better than Dak, bro. Be honest with yourself. He is way more accurate and a lot more composed.
Dak’s literally the 7th most accurate QB in the history of the NFL 🤡
Definitely didn't watch the game. Cooper's not that accurate
Did you do longhorn reaction
we still suck
