You said "the eagles defense helps their offense by getting turnovers and giving them short fields....Dak rarely, if ever is given that advantage by his defense." That's not true. If you want to say other stuff now, about "flow" and "pressure" and all that, that's cool, but it has nothing to do with what you said before.
....me too.
Do you think he has no job because of his political dissent or his faded talent and skills?
Cowboys (-6) at 49ers: The Niners are 0-6, but they've lost their last five games by a combined 13 points, and none by more than three points. They've been in almost every game.
Meanwhile, this Zeke Elliott situation is a mess for the Cowboys. He's on pace for 390 touches this year, and he's been ineffective. He's running at a 3.7 yards-per-carry clip, with 122 touches and only 28 first downs. He has clearly put on weight and doesn't look like the same player, even if his offensive line has also predictably regressed to some degree.
If the Cowboys want to run him into the ground while he isn't even playing well, all while simultaneously causing a major distraction, the rest of the NFC East should take joy in watching his suspension get delayed repeatedly.
Had Elliott just been suspended for the Cowboys' first six games, it would already almost be over and they'd probably have the same record. Instead, it is becoming a year-long distraction, and Elliott is likely still going to serve those six games at some point.
I'll still take the Cowboys here, I guess, but I love the value of getting six points, and wouldn't be surprised if the Niners won this game outright.
Kempski wrote this prior to the 49er game. I think he’s right about RBs in general, but I disagree with him that they are over-using Zeke. If you spend a lot on a horse...ride that horse.
That's a tough question. I would say both. Political 75% Talent & Skills 25%
I have heard that argument from my conservative friends who think everyone needs to stand and wrap a flag around themselves when they play the anthem. Have we ever asked ourselves why they play the anthem at sporting events? They do not play the anthem at Broadway Plays, at Rock Concerts, at movie theaters, why then do we play the anthem at sporting events?
You're killing me with these questions pokie lol. Ok, here it goes.... the first thing to remember is that it's a battle song. The most memorable lines involve rockets and bombs, and the lesser known verses conjure "the havoc of war" and "the gloom of the grave."
You're correct. I'm not replying on the topic anymore. I'm leaving well enough alone.
It is OK to acknowledge that Wentz is a capable QB who is having a good year and his last game was his best. He was balling the whole game and single handedly kept a number of plays and drives alive. The real question is if you had the opportunity today, would you trade ours for theirs? I would not. I think ours has more upside and with better coaching will be a longer and better alternative.I heard the 'sports boys' on the radio yesterday slobbering all over " wentz leads the league in T.D. passes " ,,, xwalker pointed out he's played ONE more game than our #4 has this year also,,,, it's pretty pathetic reading thru members posts around here at times,huh? @CowboyRoy
