17 Things I Think About The Dallas Cowboys And Stuff

But I hope the best man takes the job. If Tanner is an all around better back and ST player, then I’d much prefer him on the team. It drives me nuts watching good players flourish on another team because we got cute. Tanner will be on a 53 this season, and I hope it’s ours, one way or another.

Things I think about the things you think.

OCC is OCD, what’s your fascination with prime numbers?

Green Bay and NO were looking pretty sick in their preseasons, offenses firing on all cylinders. Well go figure .(

Stephen McGee’s numbers are definitely impressive considering how they left Harris out of the game plan this weekend.

It may not be a touch back every time but Buehler definitely lost an edge there – still I’d like it if Buehler had a 100 percent touch back percentage.

You can’t pick any more petcats, then you say how much you want Albright to make the team. What an Indian Giver. Now Albright is for sure to get cut.

Statlines? Try we have Alan Ball as one of our main CBs and Scandrick as the other. I love Scandrick but he’s not as big as Jenkins to try to handle up on a Vincent Jackson or Floyd. Although he does well with Dez and Miles – hmmm.

As for Tashard Choice, I think we really do need our third running back to contribute on special teams. I saw Tanner go lay some wood on special teams in the Chargers game. I mean how many games did we lose last year due to special teams play? I think the coaches have a point on that one, we need our guys to stand out on special teams – and that’s what special teams is. Desire, you have to really want it.

Great caption.

Mike and Mike made a great point today, they said while 32% seems high it will be higher in the regular season because during the preseason a lot of teams are having their guys run it out regardless.

Also conspiracy theorist in me says the NFL won’t change the Kickoff back not because its safer but because like you said OCC more advertising!!

Parcell-isms – pure gold

What on Earth is a progress stopper? If you search for the term on SBNation, you get 237 hits in the comments section. 159 on BTB, 75 on the Dolphins’ Phinsider site.

Buehler might still have a chance? Being injured has hurt him even more though.

On the first two preseason weekends, the new kickoff rules resulted in a touchback percentage of 37.0% (103 touchbacks on 278 kickoffs in 32 games). That’s more than twice the rate of the 2010 season, when the percentage was 16.4% (416 touchbacks, 2,539 kickoffs). But it also means that about two thirds of the kickoffs still do not result in a touchback. All this talk about not needing a big leg anymore may be just a tad premature.

I didn’t realize all the times that I was using that it was so well used by all the best writers!!
In the words of JimmyK, “we be journalizin, son”. lol

I like that our Stadium is named Cowboys Stadium. But the Meadowlands just signed a 25-year deal with MetLife for a reported $17-18 million per year, and I’m worried Jerry might sign a similar deal soon. I understand that Jerry can’t just kick $20+ million per year to the curb. But I just don’t like the idea of a Cisco Circus, American Airlines Arena or Pepsi Palace

.

I’m holding out hope against hope that whoever signs for the stadium would be willing to keep the Cowboys Stadium name.
Something like: Papa John’s Cowboys Stadium or Cowboys Stadium brought to you by Papa John.

“Uhhh… we’re like… closed and stuff. Uhhhuhh huh huh huh”
That’s from the Beevis and Butthead episode where they were working at the fast food restaurant. I know its not really a contributing comment for this thread but OCC’s headline made me think of it immediately. I will now shut up.

Shanahan would make a nice urinal cake i think.

before they take it to PPV.

its called DVR. go grab some beers and wings and come home 20 minutes later and fast forward thru all the useless shit

Dallas was 7-12-1 from 1992 to 1995 , during their Super bowl runs.

that you described…how maddeningly annoying is this “every score has to be reviewed” rule?? That is RIDICULOUS!! I promise that there will be a couple “scores” that to the naked eye look like scores, are great athletic plays, completely fool the refs, every person in the stands and 99.9% of the people watching at home, but since it has to be reviewed, will be called back. AND the opposing coach won’t even have to waste a challenge on it!!

This will get to the point that no one in the stands will even cheer until AFTER the replay review so as not to be premature in their celebrations….stupid.

is downright unAmerican. Oh wait… ; )

I’ll tell you what it is… the most annoying concept to rear its head. Anthony Henry, Greg Ellis and Flozell. To me those are three “progress stoppers” that could have helped the season they were released. The concept pisses me off to no end. During Jimmy’s day, every player from top to bottom had to prove his worth. But the idea of progress stopper is “well technically you are better than whats behind you but maybe you are impeding their growth”. Instead, it should have been the guys in the back should have worked to get on. Thats what I like about RHG. I hated that concept and hated how much it was used here.

scandrick got resing to an 5-year extension worth $27 million, including $10 million guaranteed.

hard hitting corner love him on slot corner blitzes he the LT hard hitting corner back version

… is that we don’t get to see Buehler making tackles. Dude is a madman bringing down return men.

Berkshire Hathaway Presents Cowboy’s Stadium; sounds decently classy

I want you to demarcate your list using all the unreal numbers that are less than one.
