Cowboys Vs Commanders ***Game Thread***

[BourbonBalz]

I would have liked to have taken one quick shot in the end zone. Maybe not with Bledsoe behind center, but no problem with Romo.

 

[panchucko]

How is that possible?

Just because I support Bledsoe, doesn't mean I want him in the game.
I just want him ready in case of an Emergency.

 

[Clove]

Kick squib kick to the 30 down there.

2 seconds left:

Deadskins screen pass to Coolety brought down at the 40

 

[dogunwo]

Naw, take the three

We are playing better than the Skins, except for the penalties.

 

[Alweezy]

yall be quiet about Parcells being conservative, 20 minutes ago yall were calling for his head for taking a shot.. on the 2pt conversion.

I am pleased to be coming out of that half not down... Romo showing excellent composure against the blitz. Something 3 weeks ago we might not have been able to say the same about with Bledsoe back there..

Way to pad the stats Gibbs.

 

[wxcpo]

Nice garbage time yardage, but had no chance. Skins simply padding their stats. :laugh2:

 

[BlueStar22]

we should be up but this game is exactly what it should be. Boys vs Skins!

 

[Cbz40]

I've got to admit it sure sounds fishy that we have 71 yards in penalties in the 1st half.
They can't be that bad.:starspin

The chop block call was *(*&(&..Flo had already released the guy.

 

[J-DOG]

Great officiating so far.


BS call on the Davis "facemask", then a non-call on the Portis taunting.

Barber was tackled by the back of his helmet on the short dump off pass on the last drive...how come that was not called?
Same friggin thing!

 

[canters]

We need a short field in the second half for some easy points. Defense, are you up to it?

 

[riggo]

While talking?

He never got him by the back of the jersey. There was no personal foul because 1) no facemask was grabbed 2) no jersey was grabbed.

Some really bad calls going on (again).

bad calls both ways. i'm sure you meant that.

Thanks for all the posts guys/gals. It's a big help for those of us not fortunate enough to watch the game. Big ups to "Clove" for the detailed posts.

 

[CF74]

Ellis is too slow, put Carpenter in there. Yes I know one looks beter in practice but it's a different story on game day. Let the kid make some plays, at least he can make diving tackles...:starspin

 

[Bizwah]

Right.....that's why I was amazed at how many thought we'd blow them away.

That's still certainly possible, the games not over, but you always throw out the records when you play your arch rival.

Yes, by all accounts we should win this game.....but rivalries bring out the best in bad teams.

 

[Gaede]

I'm convinced that Buck and Aikman just hate the Cowboys. All the time it's a 'where's the flag?' whenever the boys make a play...and as soon as there is a flag, they immediately blame the Cowboys...

Granted they do give up a lot of penalties, but I really can't stand these two broadcasters. Give me Moose instead of Aikman and anyone instead of Buck.

Same friggin thing!

Yeah, I saw that too. Short answer: the 'Boys didn't do it.

 

[Teague31]

ellis has no business in the base defense. i am amazed other teams haven't attacked him like the skins are today. Let greg rush the passer in the nickel defense but get him off the field in the base.

 

[dbair1967]

1) we're fortunate to be tied with the way our defense is playing...other than nice goalline stand vs the run, defense has been garbage by Zimmer...our best plays are when the other teams screws up

2) Romo...pretty good, but missed a couple that hurt...probably should have had tds on those plays to Glenn and Witten though...but if Bledsoe were playing QB we'd probably be getting shutout because Romo has made some great plays with his feet...

3) stupid stupid stupid freaking decision by Parcells to go for 2
