Early games open thread

The day has finally arrived. The Dallas Cowboys have a chance to rectify a rocky season by crashing the playoff party with a win over the Philadelphia Eagles. First, we have to wait for the early games to reach completion. The Eagles will be watching the scoreboard as they need the Bucs to lose and either the Vikings or Bears to lose. If that happens they will be playing Dallas with a playoff spot on the line, if they don't get that they'll be playing just to spoil our season.

This is an open thread for the early games.

More evidence of Officiating bias NY vs. Minn

3 & 6 for Vikes, safety blitzer has Jackson going over onto his back, Jackson throws it away JUST LIKE Flacco did going down last week deep in our territory. Result:. Jackson 13 yd loss/sack. Flacco incomplete pass. What BS. There IS Dallas bias by Officials.

but then shouldnt the line of scrimmage be moved back to where he was sacked. I dont think they moved the LOS back – I may be wrong tho.

Flacco...

Threw it away immediately upon contact, unlike Tavaris which held on to it for a couple seconds.

I'm loving the referee crew in the CHI/Min game...

They aren’t hurrying to blow a whistle and are letting the play continue through its entirety. Then afterwards, they get together and make a ruling. This allows coaches to challenge if needed instead of a backbreaking….“play is not challengeable due to being blown dead”

Our headcoach is a cupcake and certainly runs a camp and a team like a cupcake and his team can’t beat cupcakes like the Rams, so I don’t think I would uses cupcakes as an analogy when talking about other teans schedules when the cowboys themselves play like they resemble cupcakes at times this year..

Tarantion and Rodriguez worked together on Dusk tell Dawn

which was fun, and important in horror – here’s how
Remember how popular vamps were in the 90s? then 2000s was zombies? I think that movie was the bridge in eras of pop horror.

I also think vamps are popular when Dems win, and Zombies when republicans win. this trend goes back to the 80s

by staubachfan on Dec 28, 2008 1:29 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

Nope. You can catch it, but can't interfere with a ball going through the uprights.

Therefore you can’t “catch” a ball either that has a chance of going through the uprights.

That's all true but the fact of the matter is that Davis was stupid.

He had suitors and he just didn’t take them because he was enamored with Russell. I know the draft pick point value chart is big with the teams, and you’re almost never going to get what the #1 pick overall is worth, but sometimes that 1st pick, if you really want to or need to move it, is only worth what you can get for it. They could have moved down, still got a good QB, and a bunch of other players that would have helped their team and Davis blew it.

You want to know what I want to see from our Boys today??

I just want to see them play as hard as the Rams are playing today against a good team. Nothing in the world to play for, winning will hurt their draft position, and yet they are going toe-to-toe with a very good Atlanta team. Hopefully, the Cowboys play with the same heart.

I wonder if the reverse is true about momentum going into the game.

We thought Philly would be deflated knowing they didn’t have a chance. Now that the improbably odds have been secured, Philly will be ecstatic. Will Dallas be deflated?

I want them playing for a spot…It’ll be all the more satisfying to end their season in their house. And every game in the playoffs is “do or die”. If we can’t win that kind of game to get in the tournament then we really don’t need to be there…but that’s just me.

I was just in the midst of thoroughly cursing the football gods for Philadelphia's new-found life when i realized...

we’ve done this to ourselves….there were SEVERAL games we should have won, any of which would have (possibly) relieved us from being in today’s pressure situation. The good news is, we have a team that is MORE than capable of whipping the green birds a$$es today, even in their own house.

We have the physical weapons covered…so this will be a good test of our mental strength….the real question is – do the Cowboys want this win as bad as WE want it for them? I sure hope so, and being the eternal fan optimist, I say yes they do (want this win), and they will get their butts our there and take care of some business.
