Collingsworth massive bias

I typically block out stuff the announcers have to say they are always gushing over something.

His analysis of what the Eagles "were doing to Micah Parsons" was total nonsense though. He kept talking about how they put him in a bind, only it wasn't the case, it was his teammates blowing their assignments that left him with a 2 on 1 on the back side of plays. No way is it his assignment to protect the backside and cover wide receivers and TEs who are coming in motion from the other side of the field.

It is a bit disappointing that Dan Quinn didn't have the secondary more prepared for all the motion they run, there was a ton of confusion and breakdowns, especially in the first half.
 
If Collinsworth upset you then my advice is to stay away from any sports talk today. National media don't gush over your team when they lose. Deal with it.
 
Love these announcer hate threads like they have any influence on anything. Collingsworth calls it like he sees it and doesn't pull punches. I think a lot of our games get Aikman or Romo and they sugar-coat a lot b/c of their relationship with the team. Collingsworth calls out trash when he sees trash.

And if you take off your fan hat, you can admire how the Eagles played us a little. They ran the ball right at our pass rushers and threw just enough to keep the safeties honest. Their game plan for Micah was kinda brilliant. Who thought the best way to play Micah was to not block him and run a read option? Nobody here.

100% agreed!

That Jack actually did say he was enjoying seeing the Cowboys getting beaten. The loser couldn't hold his Cowboys hatred inside to himself. Anyone who has paid close attention to him over the last several decades knows he's a Cowboys hater.

Collingsworth and his ****** PFF are a joke!!

No. He was spot on and they showed time and again how the read option was forcing him to hesitate and pick his poison. It worked to great effect in the first half.

True, Collingsworth has also had a lot of good things to say about the Cowboys when they are making plays and playing well. This is not Cowboys media nor should it be expected, Aikman is accused of hating on the Cowboys as well. I think they call it as they see it and while I may not always agree with what they have to say I don't take it as hating on the Cowboys

I think some fans just assume Aikman is going to be more of a cowboy cheerleader and cover for their gaffes.

Yeah they want him to be like Irvin. I love Mike but he makes a homers like me look like a critic. lol These announcers I think are about as unbiased as they can be. They owe to the NFL audience tuning in to the games to call the game as they see it and it is up to the team and players to give them positive things to talk about.

Do you really think it was his responsibility to cover AJ Brown when he was coming in motion from the other side of the field?

That is ridiculous, his job was to keep containment on the backside of the play which he did. However, there were breakdowns in the secondary leaving guys wide open behind him. That should not happen but there was confusion in the secondary.

They weren't blocking him in the first half and Collingsworth clearly pointed it out on the video replays. Rather they let him choose to rush or play coverage. It was a cat and mouse. Very few teams can do that to Micah b/c most teams don't have a QB like Hurts who can threaten a defense with his legs AND a top tier RB.

With a 20-3 halftime lead, they ran a lot in the second half which takes the pass rush out.
 
Every fanbase says this about Collinsworth. Every. Single. One.

Are you forgetting about him talking about Parsons half the night? Every time the Cowboys were on defense, he'd gush about Parsons.

LOL funny because I was reading Eagles fans saying he was gushing about the Cowboys.

Seemed pretty fair and balanced to me.

Exactly. I don't know what the OP is talking about.

In general, I have always thought he seemed pretty high on the Cowboys over the years. But really, the guy just seems to enjoy football and gets excited about any team/player doing something well.
 
I use to think it was us gals that were the biggest drama queens until I joined this message board. No kidding some of you guys on here need to get your huevos out of your wife's purse.

I’m not disagreeing, but I just want to know what he said. Not what he almost said, or how you perceived it, but what he actually said..

That is what he said. He said he was enjoying seeing the eagles beat up on the cowboys. Watch the tape.
