One of the more surprising outcomes to a Cards game in my life.
I have two takeaways from this one...
1st, our coaching staff looks pretty darn good. They're putting players in a spot to succeed and they're playing intelligent situational football (something which we completely lacked these last 4 years).
2nd, Dak Prescott simply isn't anything more than middling starter. When faced with tough situations he rarely succeeds. A true "between the 20s" QB. He can move when he feels he has space but when pinned deep or inside the red zone he is really bad. That pick to seal the game is among the worst I've ever seen, a truly baffling throw.
Also, I still think the plan was, and is, to tank. The players won't tank, the coaches won't tank, but this team was designed to fail. In the long run, I still think the "design" will succeed. Despite this shocker, I still don't think this team wins more than 4 games.
Kyler coming back early could throw a wrench in the works, but I think they're going to hold him out until at least week 8.
