I realize it was a silly question, but they do not seem to be as aggressive as I am used to seeing. Or, it could be that the Cowboys have made great adjustments.

Please pardon my paranoia. Just making an observation.

Nope- I 've noticed it since the beginning of the game. If we play them next week, they will be blitzing their nuts off.
 
If Dallas can get another score Westbrook will have to play wideout as philly won't be running the ball if down by three scores in the third quarter.

Exactly. Not sure why anyone thinks they are holding back when they could be securing the NFC East, the #2 seed in the NFC and a 1st round bye. More time to get Westbrook healthy.

No doubt, I have to say the lack of blitzing is really odd, I expect that to change tin the 2nd half

yep but we should be saving those plays for next week - we can beat them without giving things away imo

Confirmed, but this game is now.

Nice to get Ogletree on a deep route.

Something for teams to think about when he's in the game.

Exactly, even though the connection wasn't made there, they now have to be aware of it. I love it.

I'll say it...that was a ticky-tack call....

Meh, if that was Favre they would have taken the Dlineman out back and shot him.

We get more than our share called against us, so I'll take it and not feel bad about it.

I agree....I don't feel bad about it.

I agree with you... its just odd... when was the last time Philly's defense went a half without blitzing?

The O looks great, but we're definitely benefitting at how soft their playing with the rush and letting receivers run free.

Bizarre that they aren't trying to win.
 
if we get it to the 20 that makes 300yds offense in one half and most likely a shotout... insane...
