Game Day *** Cowboys vs Rams 1st Half game thread ***

[Wezsh0T]

Wow...that was an amazing punt. That thing just died right on the 1. Perfect.

 

[Whyjerry]

F up? It was a two yard completion. Not easy to stop frankly. Hardly an f up.

Another Heath fan boy. That play developed right in front of him. Typical Heath reacts late. TD. Stop being silly.

 

[Romo_To_Dez]

Can we get a special teams coach who knows how to set up the team for good punt and kick off returns?

 

[Rajveer]

Because you are taught to let it go inside the ten

With the way the ball bounces against us, we shouldn't be teaching that.

 

[buybuydandavis]

LOL, defense makes another stop and yet again we start with horrible field position.
ST's sucking still.

Sometimes the ball literally just doesn't bounce your way. Happened there.

 

[FLCowboyFan]

he said kick it that way though first. He screwed up thinking kick means defer not realizing you can't say kick it that way without giving up the second half too.

Has anyone ever seen that called in a game at any level? NFL, College, HS? Only the Cowboys get calls like that. Walt Garrison should have clarified what he was saying. In the audio they played Dak clarified "deferred"

 

[freddy0227]

97 yd drive coming up ?

 

[ShortRound]

Keep Zeke on it

 

[MikeB80]

Phillip Rivers just made one of the worst plays ever.

 

[HeavyBarrel]

The league could easily listen to the audio and fix this crap, they won’t do it but expect the rule to be “clarified” in the off season

Lol, true

 

[blueblood70]

Get Zeke going

he has 55 already before th half.. hes been great 4 straight games in the first half...we get down so fast they abandon the run its time to feed him but hes being used plenty

 

[john van brocklin]

Game plan has looked solid on both sides of the ball so far.
Fwiw

Good play helps too

 

[zenmastersauce]

the guy driving the offense every down isn't the biggest reason? news to me lol. Maybe it was the pit crews fault.

Hmm, considering football is as much a team game as anything, I think the entire damn organization is at fault for 6-7. A lack of this and that. People all around including Dak have not done the best of jobs. And in an organization that is not well run with a team not well coached and players not playing well the result is clear. But anyone can say 6-7 is Daks fault. That's easy.

 

[Wezsh0T]

This week on weird rules that go against Dallas we take a look at the double kick off rule

Why does this kind of stuff always happen to us?

 

[Sydla]

We look good.

Color me surprised.

 

[jwooten15]

I’m liking this Zeke

 

[droopdog7]

why would you let that go?

Didn’t the down it close to where it landed? I think letting it go was worth the risk.

 

[john van brocklin]

Been running hard

 

[ClintDagger]

I didn’t hear it right then. There was definitely confusion and even our announcers thought Dak screwed it up. Which hearing it now, technically he did. He told the ref he wanted defense and to kick. Then the ref accepted that and only then did Dak say defer. Is it one of those things where your first answer is your final answer? Because if so, I can’t see where we have a gripe here.
