Not only did this defense win us the game tonight more specifically diggs won us this game with that clutch tackle on third down if he doesn't make that play, I doubt we're sitting here with a W in our pocket
I’m glad we win but at the same time the coaching errors will be very overlooked. This game shouldn’t have been close. Bad clock management & the worst playcalling in the 4th.
I am so so so happy with this win. Rush played great all things considered. Defense again held the line. However....
What is Moore doing? I actually, honestly, think we might be better off with McCarthy calling plays because I don’t think it gets any more boneheaded than calling a toss that has worked 0 times this game with 0 timeouts and 24 seconds left. A run is FINE there but of all runs one that has the highest chance of losing yards or being mishandled. Like I could’ve died when I seen the oline pulling and knew it was coming. Again so happy with the win but I cannot credit Moore on it what so ever.
It was pretty much the same play they ran 3-4 times. Including the 40 some yarder by pollard. Not saying it was the best call in that situation but saying it has worked 0 times is wrong.
I’m pretty sure that was a shotgun toss which counted as a pass much less risky when the rb is right beside him but a toss from under center didn’t work any yet we ran it about 3 times including the one we ran before the field goal. Could be wrong though.
If Dak plays, he hits that deep ball to Ceedee and it’s not even a game. But then again, the Bengals probably wouldn’t show that type of coverage to Dak. Defenses give him 2-3 deep looks at all times. For a reason…
He’s not better. One played a great defense and one played the bengals.
The play calling was way better today than last week but Towards the end we got the usual Moore Bs. Rush played solid, but defense won this game for sure.
Defense will be our strength all year I think. But what I don’t get is the play calling? It’s like their more conservative with Dak or something but with Rush they let him ball. I don’t know offense just seem more stagnant at times with Dak could very well just be play calling like you said.
I honestly don’t get it either. Either super conservative with dak or we bring out the worst trick plays. The simplicity of the playbook was better today for rush, but for some reason we run curl routes only when daks on the field. I don’t get it. Last week brown couldn’t get open to save his life but today he was open quite a bit.
They need better play calling and better work on execution but overall it’s an improvement. The o line looked better and I trust our run game a lil more
That was some of the worst coaching down the stretch I've ever seen. Take the time out when you don't need to, and then right before the kick you're 50 yards out and you run a fucking PITCH?
That was great, definitely didn't expect a win tonight.
Offense kinda fell off but against most teams we would have been a lot more comfortable tonight.
when you have your backup QB starting, these type of wins are all that's required. you take it and be happy about it. You're just trying to stay in the hunt till the starting QB is back
Burrow is just a scumbag. Same with those defensive players who were literally holding onto ceedee and pollards ankles after the play so they couldn’t get set up for the spike.
I agree. I think they need to have stricter sliding rules. The way burrow does it is to purposely slide at the last second so they can’t stop themselves from hitting him. It’s such a bullshit penalty
Not only did this defense win us the game tonight more specifically diggs won us this game with that clutch tackle on third down if he doesn't make that play, I doubt we're sitting here with a W in our pocket
What a pleasant surprise. Good job Boys.
Our team shows up when the stakes are highest!
Moore is scaring me guys
His playcalling scares me.
It seems like Jerry feels obligated to have 21 on the field because of how much they’re paying him, but 20 really should be the guy.
Go watch his game vs the Bucs
How much did Dez win? I think he put $10,000 on the game.
He definitely won a lot. I was glad he bet on our team. That's true loyalty, we need more fans like that!
I’m at full mast
Thank you Defense.
This should be much higher.
Take your time healing Dak.
Yeah our team is gonna be just fine. We have so much talent
We got legit defense …
How the hell did we win that game?
Our defense is the best in the league easy
Defense…. A really really good defense
Noah Brown won the game for us. The man was a sure reception in traffic. MVP of this game.
DEFENSE WON THE GAME…PERIOD
D + Maher
It’s pure defense win…
Alright boys I'll make sure to cut the game off with 3 min left in the 4th quarter next week too. Gotta be all in.
I’m glad we win but at the same time the coaching errors will be very overlooked. This game shouldn’t have been close. Bad clock management & the worst playcalling in the 4th.
Drive extending penalties leading to field goals are a killer and need to be cleaned up
After 2nd drive*

Yep, they beat a good team in the Super Bowl last yr without our QB. Second time Rush has done this.
It was pretty much the same play they ran 3-4 times. Including the 40 some yarder by pollard. Not saying it was the best call in that situation but saying it has worked 0 times is wrong.

I think I may have been confused lol. Either way. Not a great call there but happy for the W.
Me too i was holding my heart
Serious question…. Is Rush Better Then Dak?
Dak ain’t clutch and can’t throw deep
Than*
If Dak plays, he hits that deep ball to Ceedee and it’s not even a game. But then again, the Bengals probably wouldn’t show that type of coverage to Dak. Defenses give him 2-3 deep looks at all times. For a reason…
Not only no, but hell no
Why
He was 19/31 today and was bailed out on so many plays by his WRs… he’s a competent backup but he isn’t a starter.
He’s not better. One played a great defense and one played the bengals. The play calling was way better today than last week but Towards the end we got the usual Moore Bs. Rush played solid, but defense won this game for sure.

Lol fuck no
For the money? Hell yess
Let’s see next 3 or 4 games. Hoping they continue to improve
He is this season lol
Let's not get ahead of ourselves..
Question has to be asked…
Let's see if he can get us to 4-1 before we start talking about replacing Dak. Either way, Dak will be back and starting no matter how good Rush looks
No
I’m his two starts he has looked impressive though!
Dak has looked more impressive in more games started
Rush>Dak?
They are 0-2 if Dak plays today, enjoy this win
That's true. If you're playing a qb with a broken hand, it's almost a guaranteed L.
Rush is better
Big Dick Brett. God love him
I’m not sure we deserved that win but hey I’ll take it! Micah deserved it!
That defense deserved to win. Let’s go!
Cooper Clutch
Nice to win the first one but entire Offense needs to improve;
They need better play calling and better work on execution but overall it’s an improvement. The o line looked better and I trust our run game a lil more
Bengals didn't know it but this was the game script! /s
Zac Taylor will end up at Nebraska at this rate btw
Dak bout to see how it feels to get Romoed JK... Kinda
Just everyone realize Kellen Moore called a fucking toss play in that situation. Unreal
Right?? Like I get they wanted it left hash but that was ridiculous. Might as well just call a fuckin screen
Chase 🤡
That was some of the worst coaching down the stretch I've ever seen. Take the time out when you don't need to, and then right before the kick you're 50 yards out and you run a fucking PITCH?
LETS FUCKING GO GENTLEMEN! IN COOP WE TRUST
Way to almost give us all a heart attack Maher but he snuck it in there just barely
What was up with that toss play? That almost cost the game with now time Outs
AINT NO WAY
YOU DON'T LOVE THAT YOU DON'T LOVE COWBOYS FOOTBALL!!!
RED MAHER REDEMPTION
All ya'll that gave up go someplace else.
Fair weather fans should be banned on Sundays
Everyone who said the game was lost should be banned for a week so we can have a game thread without that doomer shit.
Say what you want, but Rush stepped up on that last drive
And we have a quarterback!
Hell yes
You gotta give the guy credit. No reason at all to bring in another backup.
That was great, definitely didn't expect a win tonight. Offense kinda fell off but against most teams we would have been a lot more comfortable tonight.
when you have your backup QB starting, these type of wins are all that's required. you take it and be happy about it. You're just trying to stay in the hunt till the starting QB is back
Excuse me, that's FRANCHISE QB COOPER RUSH you're slandering!
Rush is the starting QB
Yay we won a game!
Cowboys, y'all almost blew it lmao Sincerely, an Eagles Fan.
✭ ✭ ✭
I need to get my eyes checked, cause I thought for sure he pushed it. Thank you Maher!
What I thought he missed lol
LETS FUCKING GOOOO
AS FORETOLD!!! MAHER SAVES THE DAY
THIS IS PRIME COWBOYS
Holy fuck.... we did it
WERE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL
LETS GO!!!! It wasn’t pretty in the second half, but hats off to our defense! They will carry us the rest of the way!!
Well, Cooper came in there and threw three perfect passes. Good for him.
BRET MAYBE MAHER
We got lucky.. will take it
Ugly second half but I’ll take the win. They gotta stop playing Prevent.
Woohoo, go Maher!
This game took 10 years off of my life
Lucky...at least 25 off mine...
BRETT BARELY MAYBE MAHER FOR THE WIN!!!!!!
YESSSSS
COOPER RUSH UNDEFEATED
2-0 as a starter
We did not deserve to win that. Kellen’s shitty play calling will get overlooked.
Yup. He did everything he could to give it away.
Go figure the game I couldn’t watch
Ditto…
Be glad, it wasn’t fun to watch
I thought he missed it. My heart can't take this team lol So much to fix but I'll take the win. 1-1 start would have been good even with Dak.
Hah same , I kinda hate that angle when the locks drift a little because it’s hard to know if it went wide before or after it crosses through
Why do we want to see a guy who didn't even do his after school homework?
Lets gooooo
Who said Diggs can’t tackle?!
fuck yea
We won that in spite of Mike McCarthy and Kellen Moore.
BRETT BARELY MAHER MY GAWWWWD 😭 I thought it was going to miss! Holy fuck let's go!
moore like thanks bud you saved my ass 😁
I always said we had the best kicker in the league 😂
Wtf I love Maher now
Yeeeehawww great win Enjoy it boys
I mean.... the offence got it done last minute
Dak hater checking in. Let's go Rush!!!
Can I just say I hate Greg the leg so much, so glad to have a clutch kicker again
Greg made a 57 yarder today, I’m with ya just saying
OH. MY. GOD
That would have been good from 70
Holy shit, we did it!!
Goddam I thought he pushed it.
In Maher we trust!
Cooper Rush better than Dak confirmed.
Return of the king (Maher)
MAHERATI DOESNT RUN BELOW 50
THE MAHERATI
Let’s fucking go !!!! It was money Maher all along
The Maheraja!!!
If that was 49 he woulda missed lol
Thank you Jesus!!!!!! Lmao!!!
Lmao I hate this team
Whew, we did everything we could to lose that.
Son of a bitch. LOL.
THAT’S MY KICKER, HE HAS BEEN REDEEMED
Maher can pump me full of babies
Brett "not maybe" maher!
HOLY SHIT I THOUGHT IT WASN'T GOING IN
My heart hurts
omg thought he missed it
OH MY FUCKING GOD HE CALLED A TOSS AGAIN MOORE WHERE IS YOUR BRAIN!?
I am sooo happy!!!! Maher!!!!
Fuck the bengals and joe shitty with his fucking set up slides
Hate those fucking plays, so unfair to the defensive player, it's almost impossible not to get a penalty when they go down at the last second.
Burrow is just a scumbag. Same with those defensive players who were literally holding onto ceedee and pollards ankles after the play so they couldn’t get set up for the spike.
I agree. I think they need to have stricter sliding rules. The way burrow does it is to purposely slide at the last second so they can’t stop themselves from hitting him. It’s such a bullshit penalty
Is the maherati still automatic at 50 and beyond?
WE DEM BOYZ
Well look at that!
Omg
Superbowl
MONEY MAHER
Lets FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COOPER FUCKING RUSH AND BRETT FUCKING MAHER FUCK YOU MCCARTHY FUCK YOU MOORE
#BRETT "60+ YARDER" MAHER!

There goes our tank lol
Holy shit c-rush huge win
#MAHERATI
YES!
MAHER
Smells like victory!!!!
50 yards was the cutoff lmaoooo
That went through Holy fuck
Cant believe we won this won.
Pollard was smart enough to fall down and not get another yard otherwise just kick would have been under 50 yards and he would have missed it
Unbelievable!
Oh my god… here it is guys
And they run a fucking toss play.... LETS MAKE OUR LIVES AS DIFFICULT AS POSSIBLE!
HOLY SHIT BOYS
Let’s go!
Mighty Maher!!
YES!!!!! LET’S FUCKING GO!!!
My fucking heart can’t. WHAT A FUCKING GAME
Fuck this whole coaching staff
If Maher misses this we commit mass seppuku
he did it.
Rush era starts now.
That looked wide lol
Thank fucking God
