Cbz40 Post Game Thread | Dallas Cowboys 26 Kansas City Chiefs 20 FINAL OT

[SDogo]

Austin had an AMAZING day but lets not jump to conclusions. It WAS the Kansas City Chiefs. Until I see Austin do it against a top ten defense I'm not drinkin' the Kool Aid.

shhh

a voice of reason

Don't let everyone know it was not the Giants or Ravens out there.

Happy with the win but the turnovers are still a major concern...without them this game isnt even close....

 

[juck]

Its time to draft a LT in the first round.Nuff said.

The bad news bears beat the slightly worse bad news cubs.

 

[Garland powerplay]

How did Hurd and Hamlin make this team? They are stealing from Jerry right now.

 

[The30YardSlant]

This team is going nowhere. All today's game did was appease the bandwagon fans and village idiots of the board, who think an exciting OT win means we're heading somwhere other than 7-9

 

[JohnsKey19]

Defensive experts out there -

Hamlin basically stood in mud on KC's late TD. Was he supposed to help Jenkins underneath or was he responsible for the short zone?

 

[Maikeru-sama]

HH, I agree with alot of what you are saying.

However, we came out with a win and who knows, this team may start to start to come together.

 

[DallasEast]

Good win, but LOL @ Roy Williams.:laugh2:. If it's not obvious that hes garbo by now it never will be to some.

Typical.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

He grinned from ear to ear on that kickoff in the playoffs against Seattle. He did it again on the game winner today. I know it's a cliche, but Miles Austin was a beast today. He had 10 catches for 250 yards and two TDs. When you consider that he had potentially two more TDs, this game was otherworldly. I am so proud of this guy. A star has emerged for the Dallas offense. I know it was against KC, but so what? Miles Austin must be acounted for by opposing defenses. This will only help make us a better team. The bye week will be sweet now.

Do any of you "x" & "o" guys know what defense was being played when we gave up the long drive at the end to send it into overtime?

Seems like Matt C had all day, whereas most of the day he was under immense pressure.

 

[Woods]

I'm so happy we got the win.

And I still think we need to upgrade Wade NOW.

I know.

It will never happen, especially after a win.

I just don't think Wade can take us where we want to go.

 

[30yrheel]

I am with you 100% but you will get a bunch of 'there is nothing to be positive about right now' posts. Guaranteed.

oh i'm positively happy with a win, but you have to be worried about the long term, not just because we're giddy with the comeback today.
this team still looks average.

 

[bigE79]

We just went to overtime and won in spite of ourselves against arguably the worst team in the NFL. If Kansas City knew how to tackle at all we probably lose today. Anybody who thinks this team is going anywhere in the longterm is fooling themselves Yeah, we're 3-2, but the teams we have beaten are now a combined 1-14 and the one win was Carolina over hapless Washington. We had what, 15 penalties today? Our defense showed once again that a Wade Phillips coached unit is INCAPABLE of coming up with a stop in the 2 minute drill. Our offense was fairly inept against an awful defense, with 14 of our points coming solely as a result of Kansas City's inability to tackle anything. The few lone bright spots from today's game (Austin, Choice, Ware, Ratliff) were completely overshadowed by the complete and total ineptitude of guys like Flozell, Crayton, Hamlin, and of course Wade and Garrett.

The worst part of today's game is that so many of you will use this as proof that we are coming togther and this was somehow a turning point in our season. Equally as bad is the fact that it takes a little heat off of our coaches, who are somehow feeling their way blindly to victories over inept teams. In a way, a loss would have almost been better IMO because it would have removed any remaining support our coaches had from the fanbase, something that will happen by season's end regardless. Might as well get it out of the way early, but now we get to hear about the great win over Kansas City until we get pounded at home by an actual team in two weeks.

Blah blah blah...dude we just won the game and im happy as hell...GO COWBOYS:starspin

Hurd is still on the team because when Jerry told him he was going to depend on him last year during Hard Knocks, Hurd replied with "mista jawones"

he's forever indebted.

 

[Rampage]

the same crappy D that Wade always calls at the end of halfs and games.

 

[JonJon]

Other than a few miscues, and the defense falling short again...

1. Our defense is still playing really well for 3/4 of football. Maybe if the offense/special teams doesn't put them in those end of game positions, we won't have to worry about them.

2. Romo/WRs... Romo was connecting with wide receivers all day... which is what our offense has been lacking. I'm not just talking about Miles Austin. We were throwing at WRs all day. I wish Jason Garrett would learn what a slant route is though.

3. Running back group. Marion barber will be healthy after the bye. Felix Jones should return after the bye.

4. Defense should have some time to recover from some injuries... Ware, Sensabaugh. Offensive linemen are obviously knicked up a bit too.

5. The best player on this team right now is Keith Brooking... this man is unbelievable.

The bye couldn't have come at a better time.

You are right about that. Still there are problems on this team and I still think we need a new HC, but I'll take the win and hopefully it gives us momentum to start steam rolling some teams.

Good win, but LOL @ Roy Williams.:laugh2:. If it's not obvious that hes garbo by now it never will be to some.

LOL, the numbers don't lie.

I created a thread, *after* the game was over and wasn't even about the game itself that happen to be about Flo, but for some reason it got merged into the game thread.

Anyway, here is a link to my post with my thoughts about Flozell.

 

[elcocinero]

How did Hurd and Hamlin make this team? They are stealing from Jerry right now.

Hurd doesnt make much money. He gets paid like a 4th receiver and is not terrible at that role. Hamling on the other hand...

 

[Jammer]

250 yards is great for Miles, but he should not have had that opportunity to get that 10th catch. The defense should have held the late lead.

At least it's a win. Much better than a loss.
