Cowboys open a pickem vs Wash

[Idgit]

Well good about Norman....he and Dez can go back and forth on their Verizon phones telling everyone how great they are......lol.

In all reality he owns Dez.

Pretty much all the really good man-CBs can take Dez out. He still affects games, though.

It would be great to see Dez beat Norman badly, though. If nothing else, maybe he jabs those broken ribs as they shove each other around while the refs 'let them play.'

In two night games this season, Cousins has passer ratings of 150.7 and 116.7.

Two games, eh.
Awfully small sample size.
The knock on him has been that he doesn't show up in big games.
It's the reason he doesn't have the big contract... yet.
I actually like Cousins. I'm hoping he leaves Washington after this season.

Night games will always be a small sample size. He's played 2 this year and been terrific both times. In 2015 and 2016, his passer rating was around 99 normally and around 95 in the 6 night games: basically the same guy.

Dez got the better of him last Thanksgiving game.

You all know Washington struggled with the niners......any given Sunday.

He doesn’t have a big contract. Haven’t they offered him big money and he’s turned it down? Isn’t he making like 24 million right now? Having made like 44 million the last 2 seasons? I thought word was he wanted out of Wash?

Wash - 1 1/2
63 percent money flowing in on Dallas

the 49ers everybody knows they are in full rebuild
they have some good pieces to start
but they are not a complete team and definitely not contenders

after tomorrow we know more but safe to say Eagles are legit contenders with Wentz playing well a run game a strong line and serious defense
Commanders could also be legit and if they beat the Eagles
Dallas might play the most complete team they seen so far playing them

Denver has that amazing defense but against good defense their young qb was outmatched

Dallas doesnt have a good run defense period
the only way to slow the run is to go up 3 scores and make them pass
that hasnt worked so well against strong teams

now Lee is hurt again
or wasnt 100% to begin with

those 2 teams are playing at a high level
i wont be surprised if Dallas cant beat them
the defense is not championship caliber, it will be the weak link and i dont see the trade or players to fix it by next week

What's the win-loss record on those games?
Not trying to quibble here. Personally, I think it's crazy that he isn't signed beyond this year.
However, their reasoning is that he's not consistent. Although, he's had a good season so far,
which will cost the skins more money if they plan on keeping him.

I'm a Cowboys fan, so I reserve the right to be cynical when discussing top players of opposing teams.
Especially in the NFL East... lol

You keep moving the goal posts here.

First it was he wasn’t good under the lights, now it’s whats his record. It’s a team sport he’s played well, and probably well enough to win any of those games. I’ve pointed out he’s turned down contract offers which include big money, and consistency really has nothing to do with it. He has turned them down because HE wants out of Washington. He’s making 24 million this year and has made 44 the last 2 years.

I know that sounds like a lot of money, but he has no contract beyond this year because
the skins front office had been divided on him. Hell, Bruce Allen kept calling him Kurt.
He was offered a 5 year 110+/- million but they guarantees were not on par with other
QB contracts.

He wants out of Washington it’s been rumored for a long while now.

What's his record in those games is what I was asking.
He turned down a low ball offer in QB terms.

You're half right. The Commanders front office has sat on their hands in signing him.
No player wants to play on a one year contract. He had hoped
to be traded to SF around draft day but the skins wouldn't do it.

Yeah, that's pretty much what we see, right?

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

a lot of that depends on if we stop the run. hyde ran a little too wild for my taste today.

Hyde is a pretty good running back though.
