I don't understand all the pulling and
movement on a 4 and inches run? Why not a QB sneak like all other teams do?

How many hundred times did Emmitt and Moose run the lead draw
it was predictable but it worked because of good execution

This is one of our more impressive performances of the year, but the scoreboard isn’t showing it.
we got a penalty on them weeee
is that the second only?

Roy's unwillingness to catch the ball. . .
. . .is starting to catch up with us. Tony doesn’t trust Roy = limited options = forcing passes like the one to Choice = getting RW’s teammates hurt. Bench RW — he’s a massive liability now, too.
how many looks has RW
seen since? And especially since that obvious drop in the 3rd?
I’m sure Tony will keep it simple for “short bus” Williams and only throw to him when he has no other option. And then cross his fingers.
That's what we have to come to grips with
Roy isn’t a #1 receiver. He’s going to make a few plays (like the TD) and make a few bad ones. And in the meantime, Miles and Witten make the important plays.
+1
but when ogletree and hurd drop balls, what option do we have.
How many balls has Ogletree dropped?

I will say that we are playing a good defense
the Redskins have been hard to score on by most (exception being last week)…I think the offense has moved the ball well, just not managed short yardage situations well but that’s at the strength of the Redskins’ defense
man, i love that route. romo and austin are so in sync with that one.
Is playing smart too much to ask?
that was tough
smart throw by romo keeping it away from the defender.
collinsworth brings up an interesting question
who would the team (or at least offensive) mvp be? tony or miles?

he has played exceptionally well most of the year.
Did you see the stat earlier about how he is 2nd to Aaron Rodgers in the Int-Att ratio…2nd best in the league.
turnovers were the problem and he has overcome that

He had a monster hole and ignored it. That was pathetic. Awful.
we still can't get a yard = pathetic
well we needed to give suisham a chance
good thing we have the luxury of it thx to our D

I cant believe how bad our short yardage plays are tonight
"Austin made the play, Austin saved the day" Brad Sham
two things
1. he had a big hole to his left
2. his hesitation cost him the first down. HE really should’ve had it.
The only thing that makes sense
is that the staff feels this game is in hand, and there’s no need to reveal anything to a future opponent.

the 4th down calls echo this idea
in that Wade feels the defense is more than capable of containing the Skins O if they fail to convert 4th/short
Thank god your opinion doesn't count toward our roster moves
Because it’s a bad one.
Never ever was Barber going to be an AD type workhorse.
Look at the second down run by Barber
he lands past the 5 yard line and yet spotted at the 5. Thats another bad spot. He lands alot closer to the 4 and should’ve been spotted better IMO

run the stats from the whole season - it's not THAT bad
Winning takes talent, to repeat takes character. - John Wooden
there are 2 games in the last 3
where our inability to pick up a yard has cost us. I don’t care what happened the 11 games before that.
i know - just mix it up a little...its way less frustrating if we get stuffed running differnt plays
as opposed to getting stuffed running the same play every time
sure we are
just don’t play a team with haynesworth or a 3-4 D.
But obviously I’d prefer we show some creativity in that situation.
Like maybe another runner?

Barber's done - cut him after the season
His legs go dead on contact – feet are basically static, no drive. He’s made his millions – truly pathetic and a huge disappointment for a player just basically quit after getting a big payday
he is slowing a little and not as agressive for sure but he can still run the pill

but look at his feet during contact – no movement at all!
This is not the sign of a good running back. Sorry, I loved the barber of 2007 but he looked lazy last year and this year he has been pathetic but a few exceptions.
Lazy?
He had a bad toe last year. Sounds like a small thing but have you ever broken your toe and tried to run and cut like you need to in football?
by DatNguyenNguyenScenario on Dec 27, 2009 10:15 PM CST up reply actions
thats ridculous
you have no basis for hat.
I think we do need to consider cutting him, but not because he doesn’t care- hes taen his punishment, RBs in this league have varying lifetimes. Barber has not been running well recently at all. Considering how much hes paid…we need to consider benching him.
cutting him*
the money vs value ratio is kinda ridiculous.
JJones holds onto players too long - letting MTB go after the season would be a good
option. TC is running much better and has a bit of shiftiness that MTB doesn’t. Not sure what it is but MTB seems very lazy tonight with his cuts
without a cap
it just makes too much sense imo. Felix and CHoice can handle the load.
all right guys....
i am routing for fantasy points now..
Austing or Barber… i am up by 9 but my opponent has A Peterson tomorrow.. so a TD would really help out…
barber
We can talk about the oline all we want but ever since he has got his contract he has not been as punishing as he once had been in the past. Two of three are on him. Also, what happened to that vicious stiff arm he used to use. Pathetic

“Officials have been told to throw a flag when an offensive player grabs onto or twists the facemask of a defender — a 15-yard facemask penalty — or when he violently shoves a defender aside with a stiff arm to the face — a 15-yard hands-to-the-face penalty.
“Then, I’m going to use the elbow,” Barber said, jokingly, before adding, “I didn’t even know. I’m going to have to read up on it. So you can’t stiff arm at all? What about the throat?”

hes been good this year
I’m happy with crayton. Hes been agressive when hes needed to be.
playoffs...
and anywhere from a 2nd to a 6th seed (but not 5th).
I know division winner matters in the first round
But does it in the later rounds? Even if we win division and finish with same record as GB, would we still host them if we faced them?
I was wondering that too
I forget – it didn’t used to be the case, but there may have been a recent rule change that would give GB the home field against us in thatpotential nfc champ game.
If we have the bye, we absolutely are at home in round 2.
Cards hosted the Eagles in the Title Game last year despite having more losses...
And the Eagles beating them in the regular season so I guess Division Winner supercedes head-to-head throughout.
its all about seeding in the playoffs so yes div winners are seeded higher than wildcards
What the French?! Toast!
It is kind of goofy though when you get 8-8 and 9-7 teams hosting in January.
Especially a team like last year’s Cards who only got in to begin with because they were able to fatten up on such a crap division.
The 7 to 6 game earlier in the year was worse

i absolutely dissagree about
Barber…
he is NOT a runner like LT was or A. Peterson is, etc….
he had a few great years when he was sharing time consintantly with Julius Jones…
JJ would run OK and MBIII would come in and Hammer the D.
remember when Emmitt left Dallas and Hambrick took over….?!?!?! Hambrick played well behind Emmitt and we all loved Emmitt but he was at his end and Troy was coming up..
as soon as Troy was the main guy, they knew how to play him and he did SHIT…
i think if we STARTED Choice, and used Felix the same.. .then brought in MBIII on short yardage, goal line, and to close out games.. we would have a different backfield..
now MBIII (and remember i said he is NOT an all game, every down back) would have more TDs and more long runs as he would be fresh vs. a tired D.
that’s my take…
i don’t think J G is using our backs in the rigth combo..
I agree
Felix needs to be our starter, I can’t think of any logical reason not to have him do so.

Who cares who the starter is?
That doesn’t even matter in the NFL anymore. Regardless, they’re going to split carries. It’s just the # of carries each gets that matters.
by starter i mean
the guy who is out there on MOST basic first and second down plays…
exceptions being short yardage and goal line…
so ‘starer’ is really just a situation term to me..
barber looks slow and indecisive to me.
While I agree your situation makes more sense, I’m not sure it would make a difference.
stiffarm rule
It is a offensive facemask is the rule you can still stiff arm. I like barber but we when he was a finisher he ran with som much passion and heart and I don’t see it anymore. 2 years ago that stutter step woulndt have happened he would have ran some ones butt over for that first down. With our 3 backs he has to be the physical one.

Im going to the giants site for a while to wish them farewell….
I know that were not the kind of team that'll needlessly run up the score, but
come on, just one Austin TD I need my fix.
I'm undecided
I love the poise of this team and think we’ll rise to the challenge. Maybe moreso than if we’re at home.
Yet, I don’t like the idea of a cold weather game, where mcnabb has an obvious advantage over Romo and i don’t think either team will run the ball well
Taking emotions out of wanting to win the next immediate game...
…Would it be harder to have to win three road playoff games or potentially beat the Eagles three times including twice in less than a month? Of course, I’m pretty sure that wouldn’t happen unless the Cowboys and Eagles ended up playing Wildcard Weekend and I believe that’s the least likely scenario.
run a 5 minute offense that ends with Romo kneeling down on the 1

I hope they play this clip nonstop the next two weeks
and we beat the eagles 3 times this year.
Just wait for the Philly trolls

agreed
though hes played poorly tonight
Hes stuck with a poor ol, average wrs, crappy rbs this year. His coordinator is constantly canging.
Peyton Manning plays worse
than Campbell did tonight after he takes a shot to the ribs like Campbell took in the 1st quarter.

yup felt kinda bad for him all year....crappy owner, crappy team, a rotating offensive system every year....kid had(has?) potential, but it's being ripped to shreds

I think he ends up in Seattle next year
Dunno if that’s better. He has to learn a new scheme anyway.

I just hope we can make a few 3rd and ones next week. The Skins stuffed us pretty good.
Family, Friends, Cowboys, Beer & BBQ. Life is good!
This seems to be the year
where we do a good job bouncing back and “executing” better whatever it is that ailed us the previous week.
realistically...
and i know there are scenarios that change it… but….
we win next week we host Philly, AGAIN…
we lose next week we go to Philly…
isn't it more complicated than this?
there are 3 5 loss teams and the eagles with 4 losses. The tiebrakers aren’t obvious either. Aside from us and GB.
Philly could still get the #2 seed
So we aren’t for sure playing in Philly first round if we lose to them.
I like our chances to host a playoff game though, if our defense keeps playing like this.
I think its unlikely we play @ philly in two weeks
I think Minny will drop a game.
PLAYOFFS!!
I missed you (sniff)

The thought hit me...
That its only been a year being out of the playoffs….man it seems like soooooo much longer
Just a lack of satisfaction man
Maybe something special this year

Wade's D
has been verrrry impressive.
I feel like I need to download that KC game. That could be the turning point for this franchise as a whole. Hopefully.
0 TD's given up against the Deadskins this year, beautiful.
Good night everyone, great night overall
We now have an invite to the tournament (ala parcells)
Winning takes talent, to repeat takes character. - John Wooden
the play ill look back on
to me that changed everything was the 50yd bomb to austin against the saints…
What the French?! Toast!
yeah but no one thought we had a chance against the saints
and that but a lil swagger in their step
What the French?! Toast!
between THAT
and the Giant loss… (as the Eagles losing would have meant NOTHING) THAT is a good weekend….
going back to work tomorrow won’t be so bad here in Giant country…
Back in the Playoffs

This one's for Coach Joe D
with what he went thru, he has been the heart of this team this year, hope he’s doing well
we did it!
yes playoffs! let’s get the division, and a playoff win this year!
i dont see a team that i would be scared to play
expect playing the eagles twice.. only because of andy reid and staff being able to out coach the second time
What the French?! Toast!
We'll be the 3 seed
But I’ll bet the Saints lose in the divisional round and if we can beat the Vikings in the divisional round (after winning the wild card game) we’ll host the NFC Championship game.
they just said cards have to lose for boys to get #3 seed
im just gonna let it happen… just win baby
What the French?! Toast!
Good blogging guys
I know Wade and Garrett were reading our comments and modifying the gameplan.
Goodnight.

Now lets beat the Eagles and actually win a playoff game!!!!!
by upstateNYYFan1984 on Dec 27, 2009 10:30 PM CST reply actions
can cowboys beat eagles twice at home?
thats the best scenario for the cowboys… and i know the eagles will be at a disadvantage with traveling but is there a rule they have to fly back? plus we all know andy reid is a great coach phew its going to be tough
What the French?! Toast!
wait cowboys are only 2-2 in dec this year right?
so thats not a winning record:(
What the French?! Toast!
but they've played well
which is most important to me.
agreed with above...
the NFC is WIDE open..
everyone looks beatable… i really think right now, with Romo playing basically error free, we look like the team NO one would want to play…
its nice but i knew we would win
its nice to be dominant two weeks in a row but i want to beat the eagles so bad and nothing would be beetter than to beat them twice in a row
What the French?! Toast!
Roy's hands aren't the main problem
It’s his head. He lacks concentration, and it doesn’t seem to bother him. I think that’s also why it took him and Romo so long to get on the same page.

cant wait to wake up and read rafs or grizz sum up on this one
can we start to talk eagles ball right away and not wait til wednesday haha
What the French?! Toast!
here.. i will say it..
i like Jim Zorn’s attitude……. gotta feel bad for the guy….
NEVER felt bad for ANY other coach in the NFC East… even dispised a few of those coaches… (joe gibbs, buddy ryan, coughlin, etc…) but really Snider has hung Zorn out to dry and the guy is still in there swinging….
i admire his guts - takes a lot to continue to trudge on - not sure i could do the same...but
i also can’t coach for $*it and never could so guess thats a pointless comparison

Zorn talking on ESPNews now...he looks like $hit warmed over
by Loozeeana_Cowboy on Dec 27, 2009 10:46 PM CST reply actions
Dead man walking.
It must suck to know you’re a goner, and he’s likely known since week 8.
I still believe in Romo.
yup - and poor guy - ESPN just TOTALLY bumped his ass off air in mid sentence.....to switch over
to the Romo interview – lol
by Loozeeana_Cowboy on Dec 27, 2009 10:50 PM CST up reply actions
so...using yahoo's scenario generator
IF minny gets the 2 seed, we are guaranteed a rematch against philly.
If Minny loses 1 game, and philly wins, we are either @ Minny (GB wins) or @ AZ (GB loses)
If Minny loses twice, everything is in play. Too complicated. Philly, AZ or us could get a bye in that order.
Congratulations to the team for the playoff clinch. Now for the NFCE Championship next week, same time.
Family, Friends, Cowboys, Beer & BBQ. Life is good!
I dont care who we play............
its time to win a damn game in the playoffs. I dont think i can listen to another year of “the cowboys haven’t won a playoff game in whatever years”.
I hear that
I’ll feel better if they can take down Philly next week, and I feel like they will.

by APerfectStar on Dec 27, 2009 11:05 PM CST up reply actions
I'm sure everyone
especially Romo, will second that motion. And this might be the year that we will finally win one. Even if we have to play and beat the Eagles 3 times in a season. It has been done.
a Redskin shutout! A playoff game!
Now, on to the next step. take the East and WIN A DANG playoff game!
I know I am getting WAY ahead...
But how sweet would it be to take the division from the Eagles at their house on week 17 and then the next week bounce them from the playoffs?
Dare I dream?
We already beat them in Philly
Next week’s game is in Big D.

Hey New York Giants
Enjoy the offseason. Hey Eli how is counting on the Dallas demise to slide into the playoffs working for you? Hey Justin Tuck is still feeling like 2007 all over again?
Ok. I see. It's Cincy vs. J-E-T-S
I don’t know why they wouldn’t want Dallas – we = ratings. Besides I figured it might be an advantage assuming we win and Philly loses a half-day of recuperation between 2 road games against us.
by JimmyJohnson on Dec 27, 2009 11:11 PM CST up reply actions
Its not that they didnt want us
its prob that fox didnt want to give it up. Esp. with them having the double header which I think they do so they moved it to the late game.

Our defense is much, much better than this point last season
Not even close.
Romo is playing as well as any QB in the NFL right now.
Drago says, "We must break you!"
I agree on the defense
They aren’t making the big plays they were making last year. But they have been solid in not allowing too many huge plays either. I guess we will find out against the most explosive offense in the league next week.
