Washington just ran it out the last 5 minutes. Dallas is scary good.
They have the same problem as they did last year that they look great against the dregs of the league, but they've played two "real" teams (Philly & SF) and lost both times - one in a total blowout and one in a vintage Cowboys choke.

The best team that the Cowboys have beaten this season is the Chargers.
Their next five games are Seahawks, Eagles, @ Bills, @ Dolphins, Lions

How many times did Romo say that "the Cowboys could win the super bowl, Jim" today? Felt like it was more than 10

When the Cowboys are good Romo is really annoying when he broadcasts their games.

There’s so much ugly football these days (Brady was right). It’s so fun to watch San Fran on offense

I’ll never understand why other nfl owners, when building a new stadium, don’t say, “build me one like the Seattle stadium.”

it’s so much louder and better than most new stadiums. Fans right on top of the field

Yeah we’re about to find out just how good the Cowboys are in the next month. They don’t have a single pushover those next 5 games.

They’ve definitely been a different team since that 49ers game. Even the road loss against the Eagles was a game that could’ve gone either way. (3 fumbles by Philly all recovered by Philly, the DAL 4th and goal TD that got overturned at the 6 inch line, the ending where penalties and a sack turned a DAL first and goal into zilch)

They’re ultimately going to be judged on a couple playoff games though…even if we find out a bit more about them in the next month.

They have the talent to win a SB. The defense is good. Dak is playing very well. Lamb is on a roll. Pollard appears to be finally looking like the player we thought he was.

The question, as always, is will the McCarthy/Dak combo finally deliver in the postseason? They’ll handle Seattle next week and then the fun month stretch begins.

I'd be interested in whatever analytic that the Niners use that lead them to more often than not kick it short. I'd be happy with starting at the 25 both kicking and receiving as a coach to minimize the random outcomes.

Yeah, of those upcoming five, the Seattle game is the one that I might think about differently if the game was in the other team's stadium

The 49ers all-white uniforms are a better look than when most teams try it

And close to downtown and right off of the amtrak and metro. It is awesome watching the pats there every eight years ... aside from the fans

This post is way late, but it’s been bothering me. I would be so unhappy if I bought fish and then saw the guy I bought fish from on live national television throwing around a raw turkey and then saw him wiping his hands on a dirty towel like no big deal.

Isn't cross contamination only an issue if you buy sushi grade or ceviche fish from the turkey monger, right? Everything else is presumably cooked so who cares if that person wants to YOLO it with salmonella.

Considering the field position and such, only having 14 is kinda a bummer. Letting Seattle stick around at home is never a good idea.

You cook turkey for way longer than you cook salmon. Guy shoulda washed his hands.
Turkey may be the least of your worries in terms of what that dude is touching.

Speaking of disgusting, we need a Seachicken stop or this game will be gross quickly.
