I sure wish a national writer would put in the research and write an article pointing out all the referee favoritism GB gets.

It would hopefully get the NFL's attention and force them to keep an eye on it. Utter bs what is going on.

That would be great. I would also like to see a "weighted penalties" stat, if it doesn't already exist, re: points added/game impact of penalties and obvious impactful non-calls. It's probably too difficult to do at this point in time, but it would be nice to at least start somewhere with this type of analysis.

Carolina had 2x the number of penalties GB did, but what was the game impact of the penalties and obvious, impactful non-calls? It was obvious that the game-changing calls were weighted in favor of GB, as usual.

Troubling the offense can't seem to put games away late in the 4 qtr. We got the ball at the 10 min mark and did drive to mid field but stalled. Better than last weeks effort but it would be a lot easier on the blood pressure if we wouldn't keep giving the other teams chances to win in that situation.

ORIGINAL: Tom Sykes

Good win we absolutely needed and played well enough to deserve. When DAL evened it 14-14, I was not optimistic but the staff kept to the plan ... in spite of Dak playing extremely well and Cooper’s Carter-like sideline grabs.

It was the perfect situation for QB and team to build some confidence heading down the stretch. That’s critical for this bunch.

Was upset with Cousins for the DAL off-sides play he threw to Ham (but yes WRs have to have better recognition also on gimme plays and run upfield) and for the second to last third down play that would have kept Dallas off the field for good (replay showed it was a bad double-move by Diggs) ... so hard to complain about our QB.

DAL has weapons and a very good OL. They chewed up our secondary but keeping Elliot in check was worth it, it forced Prescott to make a lot of really great throws which he did - But I think we saw him and their WRs at their best - 9 out of 10 times we win that game by a larger margin because Prescott is just not that consistently accurate / we are keeping some of those dropped INTs / the perfect sideline catches are not as perfect (Cooper is very good but he’s no Chris Carter) / etc.

It was good to beat a decent (not very good) team playing well in their house.

We got absolutely shredded in the trenches tonight...both ways

- I would not agree with that necessarily. There was one drive we ran it down their throats and dominated the line of scrimmage. Also, I think our d-line did a good job stopping Ezekiel for the most part. Was the pocket too clean for Dak? Yes, and our secondary got torched pretty good, but I wouldn't say we got shredded in the trenches.

Also, Kirk has continued to do enough for this team to win. I think the "heat" can legitimately be focused elsewhere.

P.S. - I am so glad we drafted Mattison. What a beast. I love the way he totes the rock - with bad intentions!

No way were we "shredded" in the trenches.

Held Elliot to just 47 yds rushing 2.4/carry. Pass rush had trouble getting home though.

We rushed for over a 100 and kept Cousins clean for the most part.

Felt like the only area we were shredded was the secondary. If we can get off the field on a few more of these 3rd and long plays we win this game going away.

Agreed. This defense can't get off the field on 3rd down.

Everybody is acting like our defensive 3rd down conversion rate sucks. I believe before this game we were on of the best in the league. I could be wrong, but that is what I recall.

We are 11th. Unsure if last nights game was in there.

Seems worse than that though.

We got absolutely shredded in the trenches tonight...both ways. But our coaching staffs made the most of the personnel they had to work with...Stefanski with the screens and quick hitters, staying with the run, utilizing the battering ram #30, etc. Zim absolutely forcing Dak to beat us through the air, denying #21 any space at all. I don't ever recall us being pushed around so badly and winning, particularly on the road against a good team.

Kudos to Dozier, J Johnson, Bailey back in Big D, Kirk, Hughes, Kendricks, of course Dalvin, but also Mattison, Ham. No letup now, boys! Denver will come to town with nothing to lose, much as Buffalo did not that long ago. Great win in Dallas! Skol!

I have to give credit to Treadwell and Bisi...they have stepped up even if they aren't Thielen.

Treadwell looks like a changed wr....almost worthy a 4th or 5th WR spot.

He still has trouble getting separation but has cleaned up his dropsy problem. But I agree he is a servicable 4th or 5th wr esp now that he is on a min type contract.

Congrats to him

He is OK

But 4 & 5th WR needs more special teams use

League minimum only and may get cut for next year s bisi

There was at least 1 other grounding not called and the Pass Interference where it was thrown out of Bounds by a mile....3 major calls. Carolina somehow even stopped GB at half to stay close with all of that.

I texted one of my friends during that game and said with all these blown calls in their favor you'd think the Packers would be in better shape on the scoreboard. McCoy went out of his way to not slam him into the turf. I bet he wishes he would have laid on him as hard as possible now.

If Hughes intercepts that pick six, it's a different game, up 21 would have changed the Cowboy's game plan considerably. The touchdown to Cobb had a lot of luck involved. The ball went right through Mac's arms and didn't hit either one.

That isn't something that you can coach....Hughes showed that ability last year....he is rusty. Just started practicing full time 2-3 weeks ago coming off of ACL injury. Hill just coming off of a groin injury of some sort....those two played well in my book and they will be better with each week.

Hughes has ball hawking skills we saw in games last year that you could not coach Waynes in 5 years. Not all have it.

I get that but plenty of teams have turnover drills. I know it's said that Zimmer doesn't do that. It doesn't seem like we get many turnovers either.

I saw them trying to rip the ball out multiple times yesterday....Harris is really good at it. I think we have 2 cb that aren't as good at Int (Rhodes/Waynes) as their backups are (Mac, Hill, Hughes).
