      Same. Lawrence was supposed to be MVP level, before the season started. Jags offense has the talent to at least be holding its own and they’re completely reliant on defense to win games. Can put a lot of blame on play calling and an atrocious O-line, but that whole side needs to step up if they want to remain relevant the rest of the season. Good on your teams for having their seasons finally go their way after so long.

        Minshew is a solid place holder. Unfortunately, as we found out early, he has a tough time holding an entire season together. One AR is back then Minshew will be good backing him up.

    Written about the Cowboys:

    “If you ask me who’s the best team in the NFL, I’ll say it’s the Cowboys (in the first half) at AT&T Stadium. In fact, I briefly mulled ranking 33 teams and listing “Cowboys (in the first half) at AT&T Stadium” at No. 1, but neither my editors nor you deserve that. Including Sunday’s shellacking of the Giants, Dallas has outscored opponents 107-22 in home first halves (after halftime, the team has been fine).”

    Maybe the team is only fine after halftime because the playcalling becomes more conservative to not give opponents a chance by the Cowboys taking too many risks. And of course Dak Prescott has been benched multiple times at the start of the 4th quarter this season because they’ve been too much ahead. Not to mention that other starters have also been pulled during the 4th quarter for the same reason.

    Only home game where Dak didn’t get benched for at least 1 drive was against the Jets where they won 30-10.
