Game Day ***Cowboys vs Packers 1st Half thread***

[Gemini Dolly]

I'm concerned about Bailey though. If the game comes down to winning it on a FG can he do it?

His confidence is shot. When did this happen?

 

[Sportsbabe]

They keep talking about Aarons callf, they better start throwing some flags on the low hits to Tony. He's limping too.

 

[mahoneybill]

That ball was tipped.

Agree. It's trajectory was off.

 

[MissouriCowboy]

I want to know if Roid head Matthews is going to be allowed to late hit Romo all day?

 

[bayeslife]

Being up 4 means jack **** when you're playing in that slop stadium against Aaron God, I mean Rodgers. (according to joe buck and Aikman).

It's inexcusable to be in 3rd and 1 and Audible to a pass. And Bailey is just losing his composure.

Yep. And they also had the Packers on their heels with all the momentum in their hands. Defense is gonna need to squash their drive to start the second half of its going to get ugly.

 

[Ender]

I hate the fact that if the cowboys win this game they have to go to Seattle even though they have a head to head tie breaker.

 

[Cowboys22]

Good God, I thought I was a pessimist. People acting like the game is over, romo choked the game away in the 2nd quarter, Bailey is done. Come on, the are winning people. Previous Cowboys teams would be down 28-3 right now. They are ahead and playing well on both sides of the ball. Small momentum swing happen in every game. They have played better in the 2nd half lately. They may take this game and run away with it started midway through the 3rd quarter. Even if they don't and end up losing, man this team has take a monumental leap forward. Be happy as heck with that.

Who is Bill Simmons?

A Dbag on espn who is irrelevant. Problem is he's actually right this time.

 

[sacase]

Ok yall need to remember romo was in shotgun. It was a pass always

 

[bjfrancez]

His confidence is shot. When did this happen?

It started in the Washington game.

 

[rcaldw]

Worst situational coach I have ever seen - wish he was really unplugged

Well if we are 13-4 with the worst situational coach in football, we must be Lombardi's Packers huh? I just smh at you guys.

Romo is not a golden child. Only Brady and Rodgers gets those calls.

 

[utrunner07]

Except from people who know it probably wasn't the call, and people who know that the botch played into where Tony went with the ball. Otherwise, you're probably right. The rest of us will manage to keep that one play in context, though.

thanks for good perspective, hope others calm down. this is our game to win.

This is why I'm probably not coming anywhere near this forum for a while if we lose.

 

[DallasDomination]

Let's just finish the fight. See what happens.

 

[ConstantReboot]

Its funny that they're letting Green Bay dive at the legs of Romo and no flag. If we dive at the legs of Rogers will we get flagged for it?

 

[Rogerthat12]

We need a turnover or 3 and out to start the half, no points given!

 

[camelboy]

Ok yall need to remember romo was in shotgun. It was a pass always

That's why we ALL shouted "WHY WHY WHY!!!!!!!" before the snap

 

[jobberone]

His confidence is shot. When did this happen?

The ball was tipped.

 

[Idgit]

On paper it's nice, but when you know you should be up by 10-14 it's not so great. It's also not so great when you realize GB now has momentum/confidence and gets the ball after halftime.

We had it inside their 30 with 40 seconds left. GB SHOULD NOT have touched the ball again until the third quarter. Not only did they, but they scored points. That's an epic fail.

People 'know' all sorts of stuff they don't really know, it turns out. But being up on the road after 30 is not something that's just nice 'on paper.' The Packers have plays from that half where they're unhappy, too. Specifically with their own botched snap. This is a good team we're playing, and if you expect perfection you're inevitably going to end up being disappointed.

Now, we might go on to lose this game, and if we do it will be in part because of plays like the one you're talking about here, but that's how the cookie crumbles in the NFL. Not wanting the cookie to crumble that way is pointless.
