While the offense isn't scoring, adding Hillis/Connor, who at least present the threat of a check down, has greatly helped cut back on turnovers on that side of the ball.
Shame those types of moves couldn't have been made when the season wasn't just a formality.
but hard to tell if this team is really turning it around. Offense still struggling but at least not turning it over. Defense has been great, especially vs. two great RBs, but they've faced garbage at QB.
What's that, no TDs in 10 quarters now? The offense was good, but need to score TDs. Still they moved the ball all day. Two games in a row where we controlled the game and won easily, albeit against weak teams, but still.
Offense cannot convert in the red zone, but this DEFENSE is standing up and being counted. No offensive TDs allowed in two games is impressive in the NFL even when you are not facing the best QBs. We shut down AP and McCoy in consecutive weeks. Something has to be said for that
I'll take it, but this team cannot get in the endzone. They need to start scoring TDs or this emerging glimmering hope will be summarily extinguished.
My thoughts are this plus if Dallas holds on against Detroit, the win amounts to nothing but some good feels. Beating the worst teams in the NFL (with backup QBs no less) once you reach 0-6 is counterproductive.
but it has to come with a note on the state of the oppositions QB situations in both games. We have a rough offense to watch right now. Dallas is the class of the division. I think our first half will look fairly similar to our second half, but its always nice to win in philly
but could Giants move a DT for an OG from someone? After watching closely today I would say that Boothe and Diehl are far more issues than Cordle is at Center.
Frustrating we couldn't get into the endzone, but at least we consistently got into FG range. Did DeOssie's girlfriend break up with him last night or something? Very uncharacteristic of him.
Dez Bryant whines to the ref and the flag gets thrown 10 seconds later. The refing in this league really sucks sometimes. cowpukes always get the calls.
0 points allowed over the last 2 games.
The O has been just good enough against two mediocre teams.
And Special teams just keep polishing the turd?

ST,s gives up 7 2 weeks
In row
problem is that he's a slot WR. he can't play TE

Very good run defense. Again. One of the few bright spots all year.
Next to nothing in terms of pass rush from the DEs, including JPP. His back doesn't seem right. This seems like a wash year from him.
Still need help on the OL. Controlled the LOS, but no real dominance.
Horrendous ST, although Weatherford punted the ball well.
Bad: 5 FGs, no TDs
Bad: Weekly special teams brain art
Good: Victor Cruz is tough as nails
We just physically beat up the Eagles in Philly. I'll gladly spend 3 hours on a Sunday watching that no matter what the circumstances.
Nice win boys!!
