Go Phins, Go Vikes
No strong love of either team, but it would be fun to watch Philadelphia go down in flames again.
ok with go vikes
sale reason, wipe out the eagles smile (I’m sure Philly fans must think it’s their sports year) but it is unpleasant to watch Miami ’s success due to former cowboys coaches, so go Ravens
I know this is should be on the other post
but seeing sproles last night, just makes me think of what uncle felix could do for this team next year.
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
I got Balt, Philly
hate to say it but I think Philly wins, I hope not.
"Protect the Romo, Save the Cowboys!!"
i agree that who will win aslo
but i dont want that to happen since i thought atl and indy would win im rooting for balt and philly just so they lose haha
What the French?! Toast!
"i just wanna be able to say the eagles won just as many playoff games as the cowboys so shut it!"
to an eagle fan
What the French?! Toast!
Hey Deke
The Patriots have decided to ensure that quarterback Matt Cassel won’t be an unrestricted free agent, as scheduled in March.
Sources told ESPN senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen that the Patriots will use a franchise tag on Cassel that will give the team two options: Trade him if all goes well with Tom Brady’s rehabilitation from a knee injury or keep him because all is not well with Brady.

Cowboys fan since 1978.. I was 3 years old
I think they'll wait to see if Brady is healthy for the season first
before they think of trading him. There have been mixed reports on his health, some say he’s ahead of schedule, some say he needs another surgery, who knows with the Patriots….
Patriots have alot of money under the cap, but to carry almost 30 million for two QB’s is exsessive…
thats hilarious
they’ll be paying 2 qbs over 10 mil a year, their cap will be shot next year.
In Romo we Trust
big play there for the dolphins
holding the Ravens to three.
Nice drive by the Ravens to answer the Dolphins three
Hey guys
If you get bored…..Click over and vote on my poll…..Great way to control the playoffs

Question?
About the Wildcat offense. Why does no one ever just flatten out the Qb when they are split out at WR?
by icouldusesomebaseball on Jan 4, 2009 12:45 PM CST reply actions
maybe because it's the corner covering, and that's usually a safety's job? no idea.

Lots of familiar names on the Dolphins

Lots of other Cowboy’s castoffs starring for New Orleans. Why do players step up AFTER they leave Dallas?
cause we undervalue them while they're here.
Really all America want is cold beer, warm p***y, and some place to take a s**t with a door on it. - Mr. Ford
that is part of it
I think we mismanaged Fasano.
I never thought much of Polite.
I don’t think ZT was an upgrade of Ayodele. They were both JAGish two down LBs with no knack for the big play.
by I_miss_Switzer on Jan 4, 2009 1:42 PM CST up reply actions
Fasano was not going to beat out Witten.
He had an important role and I think we did teach him well. We just decided to go in another direction. As far as coaching goes, are’nt the guys teaching him now the same guys teaching him when he was here.
Beating out Witten - neither did Bennett
Is Bennett about to? Spending a second round on a backup TE when we had a decent backup TE was a strange move. The team was fine at TE and moving Fasano created a need.
I think the mismanagement was in terms of not using him enough, and deciding he was scrap.
by I_miss_Switzer on Jan 4, 2009 2:34 PM CST up reply actions
I'd take Bennett over Fasano
any day of the week.
Bennett is a much superior athelete and has WAY MORE upside
You'll never get in a traffic jam,while going the extra mile. -Roger staubach
So would I
but we needed upgrades and depth at S and OL. Spending a second rounder on a second TE was a luxury we could ill afford, and it filled a need that was created artificially by gifting Fasano to the Dolphins. It looks especially costly seeing as how we have given up first and third rounders this year to fill another position of non-need.

Throw the ball up and let him make a play!
You do that and its intecepted and the QBs an idiot. You throw the ball away 4-5 times to prevent a sack or int and your dumbass who needs to let his WRs make a play.

He was the perfect fit for what the Dolphins were doing this year…is that a concept you cant understand, Apparently it is…..
I picked the ravens today, they have the better defense, stop the running game, you leave miami one dimensional. Miami would need alot of breaks to win today…
No
But you did say he would bring the Cowboys to playoffs…

there's a reason Jets cut him
to pick up Favre, at least favre has an arm and can make plays.
In Romo we Trust
22 picks is making plays
I wonder why they didn’t make the playoffs. Ask his teammates, they seem to be letting everyone know how they felt about Favre——he was distant, not part of the team
They
weren’t to fond on Pennington too, regardless of what you say the coach wanted.
by joey7289 on Jan 4, 2009 2:18 PM CST up reply actions
you dont know what you're talking about
Pennington was the leader in the locker room and on the field with the Jets, Players respected him. It was ownership that wanted Favre, they wanted some press to take away from the Giants and a QB to throw it down the field more, that’s not Penningtons game, as I said….
If Pennington was with the Jets this year, they would of made the playoffs, because they had a one of the best running games in the league setting up playaction, his bread and butter….
I know clearly
What i’m talking about, your the person who changes his opinion every week. Don’t make me laugh, the Jets would be just as bad as they were last year.

A week a go you told me it was eric mangini who wanted farve.
by joey7289 on Jan 4, 2009 2:30 PM CST up reply actions
The Jets spent 140 million on players in bonuses and contracts
The organizaton wanted to make a splash in New York, because of all the press the giants were getting. What better way than to get favre, they wanted to stretch the field more on offense, you cant do that with Pennington. They didn;t cut him because he sucks or any other reason. They gave him his release so he would have a chance of signing with someone else, a class act by the organization.. They went out of their way to thank Pennington publicly for his service with the jets…
I said that a week ago
But everyone believed he would have gotten us in the playoffs. 4 Picks.
by joey7289 on Jan 4, 2009 2:15 PM CST up reply actions
I never said he was the answer
I said he was the best QB for what Miami was running- try understanding what I say and don’t jump to the ridiculous conclusions
And if dallas ran the ball as they should of instead of throwing the ball down the field all the time, which this team is not, then a two tightend power running team and a QB in pennington who doesn’t make the poor decisons that romo makes, and doesn’t force the ball into double coverage all the time that Romo does, then he would of lead the cowboys to the playoffs….but we have a whinner T.O who is never happy and Garrett was trying to satisfy him instead of spreading the ball around.
No you didn't
I remember clearly what you said and you said if Pennington was on the Cowboys we would be in the playoffs. This is exectly what you said
If we had Pennington this year, we probably would of been in the playoffs
certainly makes better decisions than Romo

by joey7289 on Jan 4, 2009 2:27 PM CST up reply actions
because the gameplan would of been different, clue in
We have a power running offensive line, we wouldn’t be trying to throw it down the field all the time.
Our best drive in the philly game was a ball control, running the ball, throwing it to the tightends and backs out of the backfield, inside out, that’s our offense. We certainly wouldn’t have Pennington throwing forty yards down the field all the time as Romo wants to do. Different GAME PLANS FOR DIFFERENT QB’S… DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT!!!
The problem is that Garrett is too busy having Romo trying to make big plays down the field instead of checking down, and not being patient with the football
And that’s exactly what I was saying
That is what I said
Last week is that the Dolphin’s system that fits Pennington. You told me when you protect the ball you win games. I then told you that the Dolphins played an easier schedule and you laughed at that. Look at what happens when they play a good team. Pennington looks even worse then Romo has been.
by joey7289 on Jan 4, 2009 2:38 PM CST up reply actions
also said about Pennington.
yeah, we wouldn’t be losing 7 games this year and in the playoffs

My only point this entire time is that Pennington is no better then Romo, but according if we had Pennington we would be in the playoffs. Your words…not mine.
by joey7289 on Jan 4, 2009 2:41 PM CST up reply actions
I never said he was better than Romo talent wise
If we played a the power running game for which this team is, whether you want to believ that or not, Pennington would of been a better fit if we actually played the way we were built, because we wouldn’t have been throwing down the field all th etime.
The cowboys right now are built to be a power running team setting up playaction, plain and simple, but with romo we spent too much time trying to make big plays all the time down the field…
I agree
But that isn’t Romo’s call. Garrett is the one calling the plays. Half the time Romo doesn’t have enough time to go through his reads to make a play.
by joey7289 on Jan 4, 2009 2:50 PM CST up reply actions
they couldn't run the ball today to set up playaction
what part of that dont you understand. It’s not that you substitute one QB for another and not change the game plan.
I understand that
But once again in Dallas it would be no different so what don’t YOU understand.
by joey7289 on Jan 4, 2009 2:45 PM CST up reply actions
Pennington would of taken the check downs more and wouldn't have the turnovers Romo had
instead of throwing forty yards down the field having INT’S… checking down, moving the chains
I have no doubt if Pennington was the Qb under the system we should of been playing, we wouldn’t have lost 7 games..
Romo didn't have the time
During the end of the year. Pennington didn’t have the time today, similar to the way Romo didn’t have the time when he played the Ravens. Not to mention we played the Giants, Eagles, and Steelers, plus the Ravens. Four of the best defense. Romo had no time to make plays and to be honest I don’t think Pennington would have changed the lack of blocking.
by joey7289 on Jan 4, 2009 2:54 PM CST up reply actions
I'm not puttng it all on Romo
All I’ve ever said is that he needs to take better care of the football, cut down on the stupid turnovers, two in the raven game were on him, learn to throw it away when there isn’t anything there and to take the checkdowns more. Romo, dont call it a punt when it’s second down, that’s riduculous
It doesn’t help when you have T.O running poor routes, stopping on routes, as the first turnover against Pittsburgh was. We never establish the running game enough early.
we had a great drive in philly going, running, hitting witten and the backs out of the backfield, moving the chaons, then when we get in the redzone on a third and two, we run some riduculous, shotgun, fake draw, lateral to a receiver two yards behind the line of scrimmage..
Romo still throws bad passes when he does have time
Fair Point
Glad we’re civil now. haha But in seriousness I really think they need to pound the ball a lot more like your saying. Set up for that play action and deep routes. And Romo throwing bad passes when he has time isn’t just him, many NFL QBs do that too. I think you give him time, like in the Giant game and he’ll make the plays.
by joey7289 on Jan 4, 2009 3:08 PM CST up reply actions
i agree
Romo’s height disadvantage and the above average hight size of the O line He needs the run game to open the field up push back the line
And did we change
Our game plan for Johnson, or Brooks, not really we still tried to throw it deep over the middle, and force the ball even more.
by joey7289 on Jan 4, 2009 2:47 PM CST up reply actions
we have a powerful running OL??
then why can’t we run the ball? That makes no sense
In Romo we Trust
It's Not That We Can't...
I’s more like Garrett refuses to establish a running game. All three RBs had respectable numbers but Garrett is too pass happy -Just like Romo is as well.
~Texas Massacre 08~
funny Deke
Pennington doesn’t make poor decisions and doesn’t force the ball into double coverage…thats exactly what Pennington did today.
You just don’t like Romo, just admit it.
In Romo we Trust
That's exactly what we need
“…a fresh running back late in the game against a tired defense…”
If we can live with the fact that we have THREE great RBs, then we can go places. Have Barber open and close the game for us. Sprinkle Felix in throughout and let Choice take the remaining carries.

Similarity to 2003
This game reminds me Parcells’ first playoff game as Cowboys head coach, although Pennington’s turnovers here are a big difference.
Down on their luck team, short on talent, makes the playoffs and lays an egg in their first game.
2003: Carolina 29, Dallas 10
2008: Baltimore 27, Miami 9.
Miami became one dimensional, couldn't run the ball
that’s not penningtons game trying to throw every down….
that's why thought the Ravens would win today
limit the running game, making PENNINGTON one dimensional
Parcell's old school tricks n spyiing techniqe's are loosin their power ....bottom line
Sparano’s so nieve to that it’s all goin to fall on him im sure …wont be first Good Ol Bill threw someone under bus
HHMMM
Why you thnk when things get close to Parcell’s havng to take some responsiiblty he up and runs and sides wth NFL on issues
go east
I just want the nation to see how mpartant it is to have a creditable coach, and you can’t buy championship you have to lead em to it, if Jones would get out of Texas for awhle and look in and see what needs to be done. All Cowboys should be have to many rings for fingers. I say give Phillips his bus ticket and fly in Shannahan as soon as possible
oooweee!
Loved seeing Parcells becoming transparent … after Belickeck ‘s gettng caught using Bill’s old tricks only matter time before it all comes out
Next year's Dolphins
Don’t make the playoffs. It seems like it is harder to sustain the turnaround than start the turnaround. Still, they are going in the right direction.
Game Rewind
The NFL now offers every NFL game via the Internet, going back to 2001.
I hope they expand that back into the glory days into the 1970’s…there’s a long list of Cowboys games I want to rewatch.
Not that much to cheer about for this team since 2000.

Pretty Sure
If you go the NFL.com site, and click on Scores, pick any week from the 2001 season, you’ll get the results from that week. At the bottom of each game there’s a link that says “Watch Full Game Online”. If you click on that, it takes you to the sign up page for Game Rewind, if you’re not a subscriber like me.
Since I don’t subscribe I don’t know if it works for sure, but the links indicate you should be able to see them.

doesn’t mean you have to bring up the slaughter more than once or twice. How many times have they mentioned the game the Vikings won to get in?
Not in my opinion....
We need critical analysis……too much “cheerleading” led to a 9-7 season this year.
It's an Andy Reid Game
You shouldn’t be surprised. At some point he flips out passes like ten plays in a row.
You don't here of Staubeck sellin out ,

Onomatopoeia players
this is just a stupid amusement while watching other teams play playoff games, but I was thinking about players whose names describe what they do. (Kind of like an onomatopoeia, a word that sounds like what it means.)
Here’s some examples I can think of, only current players:
- Quentin Jammer (CB)
- Rock Cartwright (RB)
- Leonard Weaver (RB)
- Lorenzo Booker (RB)
- Marty Booker (WR)
- Gary Brackett (LB) (bracket the WR)
- Michael Turner (RB) (turns the corner and turns it on)
- Ed Reed (FS) (read the QB)
- Chris Gamble (CB) (gamble to jump the route)
- Willie Parker – too much time parked on the bench lol (he was on my ff team)
any others? retired players?
Gash
Sam Gash FB

Come and whisper in my ear, give us dirty laundry - ESPN
Kills us?
maybe. But looking at the way we split the games this year, i’m not sure how that game could be called any more than a push.
Theres obviously Eagles bias on this statement, but i think the Eagles will win this game. Its amazing what not having to double team Burress will do for a defense.
If we do win this game, you gotta like the Eagles chances the rest of the way
If you can't sell out a playoff game, should you lose the right to have a home game?
That's for sure
Its amazing what not having to double team Burress will do for a defense.
It’s like getting a twelfth man on defense. The Giant’s fans and the medial can claim otherwise all they want but when you don’t have to double team ANYONE on the opposing team’s offense then you can pin your ears back and rush the heck out of the QB. Hence 8 sacks when we played them. I get the feeling the Eagles will be using the same game plan against the Giants that we did.
Panthers matchup better with you than Giants. Im sure they would prefer the eagles.
Your blitz packages you guys thrive on will be lessened. They run the ball as well as the Giants and they have Steve Smith. Personally I dont care which of you guys win Im pulling for yall to kill each other leaving the winner impotent for the NFC championship game.

the team can’t find him a real WR. I hope TJ hous doesn’t go there.

I just have a feeling Jacobs knows he can get a lot but we’ll see what the Giant offer.

If they wanted Jacobs that bad they would have signed him already
But not disagreeing

they still have a solid window after the season
probably making sure there isn’t an catastrophic injuries before the season ends..
Ward should sign with San Diego or Denver.

Yes
But one of these days it’s going to cost them a player.

AP is a bust
the Vikes lost their last few games last year to miss the playoffs, now they are one and done this season.
Looks like Adrian Peterson is just a regular season, some might say early season player, just like Romo.
The Vikings better get a couple RBs in camp next year to “push” AP.
Of course I'm joking
But it goes to show how we can overreact sometimes. AP is obviously a once-in-a-generation type player, but it’s not all his fault the Vikings have choked the past two years. Or maybe he did have something to do with it, but that doesn’t take anything away from his inherent greatness, in my opinion.
Will ANY of the teams I don't hate reach the Super Bowl?
Gah!
Come and whisper in my ear, give us dirty laundry - ESPN
spags vs Jimmy johnson
master vs the student..
It may come down to special teams.

I hate the Eagles more every day
The way Philadelphia fans treat their sports teams is a reflection of their own self-loathing. The minute the Eagles lose, their fanbase will react as if they’d never won a game. Unfortunately, I fear that moment won’t come until next season…

I hate that generalization about Eagles fans… go back and read some of the posts on this blog the day after you got demolished 44-6.
Its the exact same stuff that you’re trying to peg on us.
If you can't sell out a playoff game, should you lose the right to have a home game?
You might be right about Cowboy fans in general, but not all Dallas sports fans act like that
Anyway, the big difference between the fans of the Cowboys and the fans of the Eagles is that Eagle fans have less to be complaining about. Look at the success you’ve had in the last 8 years or so. No comparison. If you hadn’t won a playoff game in 12 years you’d be a little testy too and have a right to it BTW.
wait... woah.... hold on!
did a cowboys fan just say that they have more to complain about because of the 12 year drought than we do without any rings?
I can’t believe i just read that! I’ve been saying that for a long time!!
However out beef has been that we’ve been on the door step a lot of times yet we didnt see the urgency in the coaching staff or players to bust the door down

Okay
did a cowboys fan just say that they have more to complain about because of the 12 year drought than we do without any rings?
I guess that is a fair point. No rings would give one a lot to complain about. Still, you’re right. We do have more to complain about than you guys. We’ve felt what it’s like to win it all and be dominant. Then to go to the bottom for so darn long is simply unacceptable. As if any of the players care what we find acceptable. LOL
Right now we can’t even get on the doorstep. There’s a sign on the front lawn that says “Dogs and Cowboys stay off the lawn!!!”
