Commander Fans laugh and say....

firehawk, just GTHO.

My point remains the same.

How can it? you're talking about all the sack we'd give up if not for holding, yet holding hasn't been that big of a problem. Crap like PI offensive and defensive, defensive holding, false start, personal fouls, block in the back and stuff like that.

I'm sorry we cheated your boyfriend out of 3 sacks on that 1 hold at the end of the game :laugh2:

LaRon Landry sucks in coverage, and the Skins are the worst winning team in recent memory.

Don't even get me started on Rock Cartwright.

I think the Bears would give them a run at that one. Of course, sadly, we have lost to both average teams already.

Just a quick question, but would you have thought the Cowboys played better if they gave up the 3 sacks to Orakpo as opposed to getting flagged for a hold that was the result of getting beat cleanly?

Honestly, the Cowboys are one of the most penalized teams in the league and while some of those are suspect (the celebration penalty), some of them are definitely the result of getting beat and then having to cheat. Think about what your yards and stats would look like if you didn't cheat and instead, gave up the reception or sack or whatever. Romo would likely be on some form of life support.

What are you, 6 yrs old? Cheatin is trying!

I don't think any team should surrender more sacks in a game than called holding penalties.

To the victor go the spoils and every Commander fan should jump all over this.
Skins at 3-2 and the Cowboys in the basement.
Live it up while it lasts.

Cream doesn't always rise to the top, so I can't speak for my Cowboys' 2010 prospects........

but **** always stinks! And the Commanders are ****.

You will not finish with a winning record.
You will not make the playoffs.

Put Mike Shanahan on Dallas and they're 5-0 and blowing teams out. Of course, there'd be a lot of offseason drama as the players realize the reality show is over and they'll actually have to put in work in the offseason?

But the fact is, our overall talent level is probably bottom 20 at best. We're starting a PSer at RB, WR, guys who played in the Arena League a guy who was a backup in Denver at LG, old castoffs along the lines, a 5th round pick at FS....and of course, as you can imagine, our depth is atrocious. Your backup QB is Jon Kitna, ours is Rex Grossman. That says it all.

Coaching and structure matter in this league. We should be 0-5 with our current talent level against the teams' we've faced.

That is why I am terrified of a guy like Cowher coaching the Boys...he won't put up with the nonsense there, and he'll mold your team into tough (mentally and physically) winners. Except you'll have top 5 talent at EVERY position except secondary.

I was going to respond in this thread, but you said everything that I wanted to.

As a 'Skins fan, I rue the day that Jerry finally fires Wade and hires a hard-nosed coach.

First off, Barron was called for 3 holds on Orakpo...

Second off, my basic point remains the same. I'm sorry you don't have the mental capacity to take an EXAMPLE and apply it across the spectrum to all the penalties the Cowboys commit. Run the example for either one of Mike Jenkins' PI on the first drive of the Titans game and my point remains the same. Don't interfere and you add the 50 something yards to Vince Young's stats.

 

[Sonny#9]

And they had to settle for that field goal because Donald Driver dropped his 4th pass that would have put the Pack in the redzone. Dude was wide open and just muffed it.

So do the Packers drops count more than the Commanders ones?

Your Wrs suck. So yeah, they're expected to drop passes.

 

[superpunk]

Your Wrs suck.

Good point.

I don't care what the standings say on 10/11/2010.

By 1/2/2011 . . . the Commanders will be at the bottom of the division.

It's fun for you to be a Skins fan from September through October and then November comes around and the party starts to die out. Eh trust me, it will be like every other season you have. 8 and 8 at best, and then of course it will be the controversy of trading McNabb AGAIN, and then wanting another coach. I mean what else will not want to do in the offseason? You have a piece of **** team, that is managing to pull out wins against squads that usually gave up in the end. Look I know my team sucks right now, and it's understandable it comes down to coaching. But seriously you aren't that good, and the end of the season is going to prove that.

and its great being a cowboy fan in december(sarcasm)

No normal person has the mental capacity to make sense of what some of you troglodytes say because it makes no sense, you rant and rave about us "cheating" and how much Romo would get sacked if we didn't when the facts are we don't get called for holding all the much on passing plays. I don't get what that has to do with Vince Youngs passing yards at all
How many more sacks does Romo take if Jenkins don't PI on those 2 plays?

Skins fans make me sick, where were you last season?

 

[SkinsHokieFan]

Luck schmuck

The line between winning and losing in the NFL is thin. I am not apologizing for any of these wins.

I've said this over and over again.. I don't care what place we're in in sept oct or nov. Dec is when I want to be in 1st and playing well. You win NOTHING in the earlier months... NOTHING!!!!

This is funny because we were saying the same exact thing about you all for the past four years until you sudden resurgence in the playoff win column last year.

 

[airs0ft3r]

Not in coverage he isn't.

He sounds like a great weakside LB though.

First post. I'm a Skins fan, so I do have rose colored glasses on, but I hated on Landry last year. Hated him. But he hasn't given up a single unreasonable play because of coverage issues this year. Watch the games or shut up.

Coverage isn't just about not giving up a play. For a safety it's also about providing help to the CBs, and he hardly does.

Why are all you stupid skin fans even in here? Shouldn't you and the rest of your redneck, Commander pals be screwing each other's sisters?

But you sure as hell can lose the season in earlier months. And given the Cowboys recent December history...

The Commanders were playing a super nickel 3 safety package most of yesterday. Landry was essentially a rover. And he did a damn good job at it, forcing 2 turnovers (fumble and getting the INT in OT) and once again being a force tackling guys.

Come on Bobby

Good for Landry. Guess that helps him not have to think too much.

Indeed it does. Landry is not the cerebral super intelligent can make all the calls type safety. He is much more of the "be in this space and hit whatever enters" type of safety.

Now that he is actually playing that role, he is playing pretty damn well. Not hard to see when you match a guy in a role that suits his skill set he'll be in the early conversation for DPOY
