Around SBN: Are The Orioles Bad Or Unlucky With Their Young Pitching?

Lions @ Cowboys gameday open thread

New_headshot_tiny by Dave Halprin on in Dallas Cowboys News

Detroit Lions @ Dallas Cowboys
Sunday, Dec. 31st, 2006
1:00 PM EST, TV: FOX
Texas Stadium - Irving, TX

Internet radio: WOAI

TV: If you have Sunday Ticket on DirecTV, the game is on channel 712.

This is an open thread for real-time game chat.

The last game of the regular season, kind of bittersweet. At least we have another game coming up, many teams are heading home. We need this game to get back on track. A big win provides some confidence heading to the tournament. So in that spirit, I'm calling for a Cowboys win in a blowout.

My prediction: Cowboys 38 - Lions 13

Weather Forecast

51 degrees
Partly Cloudy
Humidity 50%
Winds 17 mph

FOX is broadcasting the game to 60% of the nation, you can see the local station broadcast schedule here. You can see where the game will be broadcast on a map here.

McQuistan
Mosley says McQuistan is replacing Fabini on the active roster today. Tony Parrish is also active today.

Dallas Defense better show up today
Detroit has got no running game whatsoever.

by Deke on Dec 31, 2006 12:00 PM CST reply actions  

If Dallas cant win this game
with Detroit at home and detroit basically tyring to loose this game to earn the number one pick for BQ, then this team doesnt deserve to even exist...

it's always called
especially when the defensive player is leading with the helmet..

by Longhorn @ Blogging The Boys on Dec 31, 2006 12:05 PM CST up reply actions  

why?
Cause he lead with the helmet to another players helmet?

was he defenseless?

isn;t everybody?

by ab03 @ Blogging The Boys on Dec 31, 2006 12:10 PM CST up reply actions  

There was
nothing he could do. It looked like he was going to catch the ball and Newman went for him. Instead the ball gets tipped and Roy grabs it. It's kind of difficult to adjust yourself in the air.

by Tristan on Dec 31, 2006 12:11 PM CST up reply actions  

No
He was hit at the same instant his hands hit the ball. Perfectly legal and BS call by the officials.

by Philosopher on Dec 31, 2006 12:12 PM CST up reply actions  

leaving his feet to hit a defenseless player
is a penalty, that was a good call. I remember Darren Woodson getting fined for that.

Comical.

Last week I was mad
this week I'm depressed.

We just look awful. Although, it is true we are holding them to FG's. But a better team is up 14-0 right now and we all know it.

This is shocking
I can't believe how unprepared the Cowboys appear.  This is beyond the pale.

by AmosM on Dec 31, 2006 12:34 PM CST reply actions  

To be this underprepared
and lack any emotion at all after what happened last weeks reflects very badly on Parcells. As much as I like him, he isn't getting this team ready to do anything but get whipped.

Romo looks like
he has lost his zip on those passes...weak.

by Terry on Dec 31, 2006 1:04 PM CST reply actions  

I hope so.
He has great size being 6'5. He is quick, and has the athletic ability. If he can get the mental part of the game down, he could be a jewel back there.

that drive was all Romo
the Favre clone is getting his groove back.
In Romo we Trust

by Terry on Dec 31, 2006 1:14 PM CST reply actions  

Yeah
he is playing well now. He was a bit shaky when he started, but now he seems to have gotten the Offense in a groove. Let's hope the D can find a groove now too.

Just like last week. Lose the momentum by letting the other team score (probably anyway) right before half!!

another missed tackle by Roy Williams
cost us a first down.  That guy in the Pro Bowl is such a freaking joke.  he's terrible

Please...someone
can anyone tell me how the 'boys can leave Roy Williams one on one with the shortest and oldest CB we have??

Seriously
one play left...why not alteast put newman on him 1v1. ATLEAST.

Wow. I'm ready for this whole staff to be fired.

by Longhorn @ Blogging The Boys on Dec 31, 2006 1:31 PM CST up reply actions  

I'm with ya.
It's elementary to put Newman on Williams in a game like this.

Just unbelievably stupid. I can't do anything but shake my head anymore.

this really is his fault.  people constantly lining up wrong

by ab03 @ Blogging The Boys on Dec 31, 2006 1:30 PM CST reply actions  

Well
Zimmer is not a 3-4 guy. The blame is all BP. He has some of the best talent, and they all play down to his level of coaching...

The way this defense is playing
Kitna looks like a pro bowler

at least we get the ball
1st possession in the second half. We need to score to get momentum back.

no
i want the defense to stay out on the field for the next 100 plays to prove they can stop the lions on third down

They're saying "Moo!" at Cowboys.
Nah, it's "boooooo!" Why do the Cowboys always gift-wrap points to their opponents at the end of the first half?

Oh, oh my
a stop. What a concept.

by Tristan on Dec 31, 2006 1:48 PM CST reply actions  

So
how about we make a stop on defense and go up by more than a point? That would be nice. I don't like keep Lions around with how poorly we are playing.

by Tristan on Dec 31, 2006 1:51 PM CST reply actions  

thats why he's returning punts, Deke
you think Crayton or anyone else on the team takes that to the house? the answer is no!

Great job T Newman!!

Looks like Detroit is going to go for it
Well, we can't stop them on 3rd. Doubt we can on 4th either.

by Philosopher on Dec 31, 2006 2:04 PM CST reply actions  

So
will we be giving up 4th downs too?

by Tristan on Dec 31, 2006 2:04 PM CST reply actions  

We've actually played multiple defenses
and we've stunted some on the line, still not helping.

Parcells is playing 'possum

He also doesn't want to face Seattle first.

Don't worry, the plan is working BRILLIANTLY.

by Doomsday on Dec 31, 2006 2:26 PM CST reply actions  

Funny
that a while back we were a pretty solid team in all areas except at kicker. Get rid of Vandy and replace him with a kicker who seems to be able to make FG's on a consistent basis, and the rest of the team falls apart.

Maybe Vandy was our good-luck charm.

by Philosopher on Dec 31, 2006 2:28 PM CST up reply actions  

3rd and 7
which for Detroit means they can count on a 1st down.

by Philosopher on Dec 31, 2006 2:32 PM CST reply actions  

the detriot radio guys
just mentioned that there are so many defensive changes on each down that they may be getting tired running 20 or 30 yards each down.

by musicalnuke on Dec 31, 2006 2:32 PM CST reply actions  

And these changes
are making no difference for us. Detroit moves the ball at will.

once again
Roy Williams easily blocked on a blitz.  Last week, he had one tackle despite the Eagles running the ball 42 times.  But at least he's a hard-hitting, game-changing Pro Bowler!

the offense looks pretty good

So what you are saying
is that our D is getting their butt kicked by 2nd string, 3rd string, and practice squad players on a 2-13 team that is tied for the worst record in football?

99 yards
is that the longest drive in Cowboys history?  that 3rd down end zone play could have been 1) fourth down, 2) TD lions, 3) safety lions, or 4) 1st down 'boys.  3/4 things were good for the Lions.  Vaudeville, indeed.

I haven't seen a QB drop the ball so easy since Leaf was here.

by Doomsday on Dec 31, 2006 3:05 PM CST reply actions  

NO
OUR DEFENSE SUCKS.

saying Romo sucks is just stupid

by Lobo on Dec 31, 2006 3:06 PM CST up reply actions  

u ever make a mistake at work?
yes?

well then i guess u suck too.

by Lobo on Dec 31, 2006 3:08 PM CST up reply actions  

Give it a rest
Calling out Romo for today's performnace is perfectly legitimate.

Ok, maybe SUCKS is harsh
But you put the blame where it belongs. Those turnovers killed us and don't start making excuses for balls that slipped or whatever. Romo seems to have a lot of poise but he's also blowing it when putting up points on Detroit seems to be so easy.

by Doomsday on Dec 31, 2006 3:13 PM CST up reply actions  

Grizz
that's just ridiculous..

he had one play that hurt us...no qb is perfect

by Lobo on Dec 31, 2006 3:20 PM CST up reply actions  

Dumb play
by Romo, but the offense put 31 points up. If we had a defense that could make just one or two stops on third down, they wouldn't have 39 points.

by Philosopher on Dec 31, 2006 3:09 PM CST up reply actions  

Actually the offense put up 24
Newman's return was the other 7.

Anyway, if the D could forces a few more punts, it would have been a different game.

Story of the past few weeks.....

ROMO SUCKS
He already peaked.  Carrie Underwood isn't going to date a loooser.

by BringBackQuincy on Dec 31, 2006 3:09 PM CST reply actions  

don't break your legs
falling off the bandwagon fairweather fanboys.

c-ya next year.

by Lobo on Dec 31, 2006 3:11 PM CST reply actions  

No bandwagon
I've been saying it the entire time, he's not the QB for the future.

by BringBackQuincy on Dec 31, 2006 3:12 PM CST reply actions  

wow
really?  thats kind of ridiculous.  he has an arm and pretty good accuracy.  

by ab03 @ Blogging The Boys on Dec 31, 2006 3:13 PM CST up reply actions  

6
a lot of mediocre qbs have those qualities

by BringBackQuincy on Dec 31, 2006 3:16 PM CST reply actions  

Third home loss
and seven years since we won our season ending game

by Deke on Dec 31, 2006 3:23 PM CST reply actions  

Get ready for the offseason
This team will be blown out next week in Seattle.

by Deke on Dec 31, 2006 3:24 PM CST reply actions  

all hail romo
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

by BringBackQuincy on Dec 31, 2006 3:24 PM CST reply actions  

Okay
He had no running game, no O-Line protection, and a defense that keeps him behind most of the time. The Lions punted ONCE during the second half. Consider that.

Consider that for just a minute.....

unfortunately,
you're talking to glass half full people who have actually sucked the moderator of this site into their negative close minded world.

by ab03 @ Blogging The Boys on Dec 31, 2006 3:25 PM CST up reply actions  

i agree with this
 it is an away game.

by Longhorn @ Blogging The Boys on Dec 31, 2006 3:27 PM CST up reply actions  

Seattle next week
Let's hope they're not as good as those Detroit Lions.

by Doomsday on Dec 31, 2006 3:24 PM CST reply actions  

team is bad from top to bottom
total collapse from head to toe.

by BringBackQuincy on Dec 31, 2006 3:25 PM CST reply actions  

Well
Shoulda went to TO atleast once down there.

by Longhorn @ Blogging The Boys on Dec 31, 2006 3:25 PM CST reply actions  

YEP
and we will sure here it from TO..the locker room is going to be divided im calling it..this game just about does it..

by BringBackQuincy on Dec 31, 2006 3:28 PM CST reply actions  

incorrect

by ab03 @ Blogging The Boys on Dec 31, 2006 3:29 PM CST up reply actions  

I'm confused,...
I thought Parcells was a DEFENSIVE GENIUS??

by Dale in Atlanta on Dec 31, 2006 3:29 PM CST reply actions  

maybe
he should call the defensive plays

by ab03 @ Blogging The Boys on Dec 31, 2006 3:30 PM CST up reply actions  

The Good news...
the Cowboys will be able to rest after next weekend, and get ready for Training camp...

by Dale in Atlanta on Dec 31, 2006 3:30 PM CST reply actions  

The Silver Lining is...
this hopefully is Parcells LAST regular season as HC of the Cowboys...

He'll bolt like Clinton after an Intern on her knees, once the Cowboys get killed next week...

He likes to through his players, and assistant coaches under the bus when they lose, and he won't want to take any credit for this; so Hopefully next week is the last we ever have to see of the ass...

Then, under someone knew, we can get a real Offensive Coordinator; shore up the OL by getting rid of Rivera and Adams, move Anthony Henry to FS, and fine at least ONE other pass rusher for the Defense...

But again, HOPEFULLY, this is the LAST time we have to see "Mr. I'm so much smarter than everyone and so superior to all you peons...and I can prove by having all my teams collapse in December EVERY YEAR..."
