Game Day ***Cowboys vs Bears 1st half Game thread***

[Reverend Conehead]

Beasley is stronger than I thought.

 

[maxdallasfan]

Just freakin win. Points are just sexy.

 

[Zman5]

You underestimate Cole's strength

Exactly. You can't be 5' 8" and dunk a ball unless you have some serious leg strength.

 

[mahoneybill]

Nice, long, methodical drive.

Now let's finish it with 6 here.

Got your wish...

 

[Rogerthat12]

Is Melton playing much?

 

[KJJ]

The Cowboys really need to try and pull away in the second half and not allow the Bears to hang around.

 

[Deep_South]

Bears have 4 yards rushing.

 

[maxdallasfan]

Dallas should bring in Michael Sam in the morning... 10days to get somebody worked in. Pass rush is absolutely non-existant against a guy that's been sacked 29times (8th most in the league)

But we have the QB Hunter!!

 

[landroverking]

Guys who keep posting should be 17-0 or 21-7 please explain.

 

[Sportsbabe]

just play man and make Cutler make accurate throws which he hasn't been doing

Why would you play zone inside the 10 yard line? That's crazy to me.

 

[Dave_in-NC]

Romo's completing 80% of his passes.

But he looks off Amazing how fans forget the injuries he's playing with.

 

[rcaldw]

Thanks you saved me a ton of reading lol

If folks just love Romo, then they will be satisfied with how we finished (and I am sure happy about it). If they try to objective they will see that he is super skittish if you put any pressure on him and isn't making good decisions in those situations. Hey, I hope we give him those wide open pockets, he will look great tonight. But I can guarantee you right now, that the Eagles and Colts and Commanders are going to blitz the dog out of us. book it.

 

[Red Dragon]

We're on pace to finish with nearly 38 minutes TOP vs. Bears' 22.

 

[khiladi]

Can we be both a running team and get Romo in a rhythm or are they mutually exclusive?

I think we can, with a short passing game. That first drive which ended in the busted block by Murray on that horrible route, they had a good mix. Play action with shorter routes as well.

I also think with Beasley, whose a lot quicker getting to his spots would provide Romo better opportunities to get the ball out quickly. Witten gets open a lot during breakdowns and being shifty, not beating his man to spots. Beasley can do it.

 

[rcaldw]

But he looks off Amazing how fans forget the injuries he's playing with.

Now this I can agree with Dave. I think he's hurting pretty bad. I wonder if his philosophy right now is "stay on the field." I can tell you this, if we have to go with Weeden its over.

 

[KJJ]

14-7 at half and we are a dome team in the cold. That isn't easy.

The way the Cowboys have looked at home in the dome this season I would rather them be in the cold. The last win they had was in pretty chilly conditions in NY.

We like to confuse em sportsbabe

 

[jazzcat22]

I think T. Williams is playing with a broken finger. Maybe Romo donT trust him yet enough with it.
Or he is letting it get into his head, and not getting open enough.

 

[pugilist]

Defense needs to start forcing turnovers. We can't rush the QB and can't cover

 

[Risen Star]

we might win this game.. but romo just looks off

LOL. He's 17/21 for 123 yards, 1 TD and 0 INTs.
