Sunday games open thread

It feels sort of like a bye week. No Dallas Cowboys football this Sunday, but we got a victory safely banked away and now we root for the NFC contenders to lose. According to Todd Archer the best scenario for us today is the Giants beat the Redskins, San Diego takes out Atlanta, the Saints beat-up the Bucs and Green Bay crushes Carolina. If all that happens we are the #5 seed and control our own destiny. If only Washington and Atlanta lose, we slide into the #6 seed.
Sounds good to me, that's what I'm concentrating on this Sunday.
This is an open thread for the games today. Feel free to chat it up.
Mac Engel takes a look ahead for the Cowboys.
Martellus Bennett keeps talking and keeps catching TD's, and both activities are very entertaining.
JJT says the run defense is the key. I'm always a "win the trenches" guy, so I'm with it.

I am going to pass on rooting for anyone to lose
it always, always, always results in them winning. Some kind of reverse psychology hex thing.

the great thing about Thursday games is we get two games in five days
the bad thing about Thursday games is then you have wait 10 days for the next game!

Stupid Archer
Thinking short term.
I still want the division. A Washington win makes that possible. The Redskins are not running the table. Go ’Skins

I am
kind of looking at the Skins Giant game as a NO lose for us situaiton.. at least right now..
of course later in the season you could argue that we needed something to happen one way or the other in this game, but right now…
IF the Giants can win I will take the fact that the Skins fall behind us..
and if the Skins win i will start to think about the division..

If the Skins win, you might be thinking about next year
not only would they jump ahead of the cowboys, they have two easier games on the schedule in SF and Cinncy, two very winable games for them.
I’ll be rooting for the Giants, SD and Carolina, forget about the division, wildcard is the best hope. Dallas has a terrible conference record, We own the tie breaker against Tampa head to head.
by Deke on Nov 30, 2008 12:00 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
I follow...
but i think the Skins will win today..
Jacobs and Bradshaw are banged up, and the emotional value of the Sean Taylor thing AT home for the Skins, along with all the BS the Giants have gone through, plus it’s a division game.. i think the Skins have the advantage..
however, i see what you are saying….
guess we will have to deal with whatever happens, and i will find positive in whatever does happen…

not true Deke
the Cowboys and Skins could both make the playoffs

Thats true
The Skins don’t look too good though.
I think the Boys have the best chance at making it in as a 5 seed WC. The Midgets are too far ahead to realistically lose the division. They would have to drop all remaining games, or at least 4 of them in the conference.

still mathematically possible
but rather unlikely. safer to root for the wildcard spot. I think we can win any playoff game, we just have to get there.
by scottmaui on Nov 30, 2008 12:27 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
JJT is absolutely correct
If we continue to stop the run, we’ll win the next three games as the Steelers, GMen and Ravens are running teams and if you force Roethlisberger, Manning and Flacco to beat you, they won’t as they need strong running games to succeed.
We stop the run, we make the playoffs, its as simple as that.
In Romo we Trust
by Terry on Nov 30, 2008 11:59 AM CST reply actions 0 recs
6.8 yards per pass on first down
You better to worry about that stat. Two mediocre offensive Teams in SF and Sea were passing at an alarming 6.8 yards per pass on first downs to the tune of 400 yards the last two games against the cowboy defense.
by Deke on Nov 30, 2008 12:05 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
I'm not worried about that at all
Roethlisberger, Manning nor Flacco can’t beat us, they need their running games to do that.
In Romo we Trust
by Terry on Nov 30, 2008 12:09 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
6.8 Yards Per Pass
Is about the league average. Giving up an average of 200 yards passing a game is nothing special. Both teams got behind early and were throwing the entire game.
So what’s the big deal?

LOL
trolling through. I guess you haters still not satisfied w/ Hixon? You’ll see a lot of him next week. Have fun stopping him. Great stat, Eli throws for 300+ for the first time in over a year! lol That should make you Romo riders toot his horn. Oh and not a single reciever over 100 yards. Talk about spreading the ball! Phillips will beast on you guys next week. I hope he smashes RW2.
Another thing on Hixon, I said I love how he makes plays on the ball. He did that several times today. That play on the INT, will be polished and smoothed out. That’s the thing with us. We win, enjoy it for the night, come back the next day and start figuring out how to perform better. I know most teams philosophies are the same, but not many can see that philosophy throughout the week into the next game. Giants all day every day.

Censored by the DMN
I wrote an “eat crow” letter to the DMN on Monday, and they published it this morning. But they omitted the funniest parts!!! Here’s the full article, view it in all of it’s amateuristic spendor.
Dear JJT,
I like you as a sports writer, even though there’s a slight hint of racial favoritism in many of your pieces. But your treatment of Terrell Owens over the last 72 hours has been pretty weak and low on class.
You’re spot-on in saying TO is nearing the end of his career; great job of noticing he’s 35. His antics are annoying, but nowhere near as inflamatory as they have been in the past. You had a great chance to follow up your article that Owens needs a one-way ticket to assisted living with a “one last magical Sunday” or “TO proves me wrong” headline, but instead you opt for the sour grapes approach, mocking his tongue-in-cheek comment of being “unleashed” and blasting 49ers coach Mike Singletary for not jamming him at the line of scrimmage.
Singletary’s decision may have been curious to say the least, but how many receivers are capable of torching a solid NFL secondary for 212 yards? A little admission of your haste to condemn Owens to the pasture would have been the mark of class on your part, instead you’re eating crow down with the Dale Hansens, Jenn Engles, and other dregs of the Dallas sports world. The salt’s at the end of the table, next to Engel’s Thanksgiving ham.

They have great O and DLines, then just plug in average skill players. With great guys up front they can perform.
As opposed to the Boys, where JJ focuses more on the skill guys. Although our lines aren’t bad, they are prob. above-average. Our OLine is overrated, though.

because the cowboys are run by an idiot
They kept keith davis over Elam and I thought that was a mistake at the time, since davis was in his last year of his contract and Elam had upside and could play gunner on special teams and both safety positions.

Davis is a good STer and we need those; he is also a pretty good backup
Roy needed to go though. He was useless. We should have cut him and kept Elam.

you kind of knew Roy wasn't going anywhere last year because of the contract
I never thought the cowboys should of given him a new contract in the first place. I’m sure he’ll be cut after June 1st next year.
