Game Day ***Cowboys vs Eagles 2nd half thread***

[Mr Cowboy]

someone needs to tell Garrett it's not against the rules to throw in the middle of the field. Crossing routes with pick plays are acceptable. They do it to his defense every game.

Guys, at least we got points there and didn't have an interception or fumble, etc. I wanted the TD too but just didn't happen.

 

[Tabascocat]

Playing not to lose is going to bite us again, we will probably barely lose and Garrett gets credit for a hard fought game. The defense is hanging tough, open up the playbook!

 

[Rogerthat12]

Eagles are worse at getting pressure then us. Additionally, Kelly's play calling seems to allow easy pressure at times. Foles also holds on to the ball too long.

We need to keep sacking him, he is slow and lumbering, a pick will come!

 

[Brooksey]

Worst play calling I've ever seen, shot gun 4 wide on first down and run on 2nd and all damn day!

You are not fooling anyone but yourselves.

 

[dragon_mikal]

Finally get the defense to play well and then the offense can't do squat

This team in a nutshell.

 

[Parcells4Life]

Red zone is where Romo and Dez do their best adlibbing. Orton doesn't have that skill set. Not much space down there either.

 

[tomsanders921]

Anyone else think if romo would have played that our defense would not give this effort and romo would have had to beat them in a shootout

 

[basilhayden]

The difference in red zone skillset between Romo and Orton is really starting to show. And it's an astronomical difference.

Thats what happens when you never get to practice...

 

[FLCowboyFan]

That was horrible

 

[Stash]

3rd and 9 and you only have 2 receivers in the game

And the fullback?

 

[jason54858]

This offense looks identical with Orton running it.

It really does
I honestly think if Romo was playing the score would 17-16 Eagles right now.

 

[tyke1doe]

gotta wonder if our defense would play like this if Romo was playing

We don't know. So it doesn't really matter. We're playing great defense now. Let's see what we can do from here on out.

 

[Zordon]

I'm sorry, they are calling plays to prevent Orton from throwing an interception in the red zone. Just stupid.

this.

after our interception, kelly went right for the throat. when is garrett going to grow a pair.

 

[Toruk_Makto]

Eagles are worse at getting pressure on our QB then us. Additionally, Kelly's play calling seems to allow easy pressure at times. Foles also holds on to the ball too long.

You have to play man against Foles. When his 1st read isn't there he gets super conservative. That's why he has thrown so few interceptions. He gets through a progression or two and then throws it into the ground if these pick plays, rubs, drags etc aren't immediately open.

 

[Rockport]

I'm sorry, they are calling plays to prevent Orton from throwing an interception in the red zone. Just stupid.

That was a check down LOL!

 

[DogFace]

Uh. Not very good play calling. Receiver selection. Worse.

[BlueStar22]

And there is why garret sux. Kelly goes for TD play#1. We go 3yard out to slowest guy

Garrett make the decision or was it our short passing game specialist?

 

[Staubacher]

This offense looks identical with Orton running it.

Pssst it's Garrett not QB

 

[Deep_South]

Sure looked to me like we were just playing for a field goal.
