Game Day ***Cowboys vs Eagles 1st half thread***

[The Quest for Six]

weak roughing the passer, he was already airborne when he threw it

 

[RonnieT24]

Philly's LT has false started two plays in a row.. and we end up with a roughing call.. At least we know which way the refs are leaning..

 

[J_Allen]

This team is one and done in the playoffs, as usual. Penalties have killed this team for years and years and we have collapsed in December for as long as I can remember.

 

[KJJ]

why are our starters still out there ?

They don’t even look like starters.

 

[glimmerman]

I swear our Defense is covering nobody.. It’s easy.. What the heck.. Quinn better bust some ***.. This is pissing me off..

 

[nalam]

Lawrence , come on !

 

[SDCowboy]

We’re one and done in the playoffs. This defense is toast.

 

[Staubacher]

Gotta love Gifford getting fired up!

 

[Playmaker3128]

These commentators trying to create drama. Our starters aren’t in

 

[john van brocklin]

No Diggs no Parsons

Yep
Missing our studs

 

[gmb1]

I hate this ref crew. They always hit us with the flags

 

[Sonicxtacy02]

Look at Luke Gifford actually looking like a linebacker on his first snap. Good job

 

[Mr_437]

Luke Gifford bringing the intensity!!!

 

[RonnieT24]

I don't know about these rules anymore. if a pinky touches the head of the QB they will call it; of course, unless it is against us!

Yeah I have counted no less than 5 times this season when Dak has gotten whacked upside the head with no call.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Lool, Gifford’s like “I EXIST!!!”

 

[endersdragon]

Good job Gallimore

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

not one and done please !!
LOOK BETTER BOYS !

 

[gimmesix]

Our defense does seem to be mixing in the second-teamers more. I've seen Basham and Armstrong out there more than Gregory and Lawrence. No excuse for the defense not doing better against their backups, though.

The route was a natural route run by many receivers on most teams. You run 2-3 yards straight, then angle in toward the end zone in the gap between the safeties. It's a very common route.

In this case, the defender not only stopped Lamb from doing that, he knocked him down.

It is not the receiver's responsibility to avoid defenders. That burden is on the defender.

As I said, if Lamb had posted up, or even turned more inward it would have easily been offensive pass interference.

As it was though, Lamb ran a route many receivers run and the defender got caught chasing his man and lost sight of the receiver running his route and as a result, ran into him. Fortunately for him it was close enough to the line of scrimmage that it did not result on the defender getting an illegal contact penalty thrown against him. Unfortunately though, the receiver he was way behind chasing scored a touchdown.

I get the point you’re making. But we do still disagree lol. If it were the Eagles running that play and they scored the TD, I bet we’d really upset that the refs didn’t call it.

All good though!
