Game Day ***Cowboys vs Eagles Post game thread***

[Risen Star]

13 carries, 2 yards.

The Eagles finish with 7 rushing yards. And this is with a bunch of meaningless yards at the end.

Listening to Murray in the post game show. He says he need to run the ball better. Period.

Sounds like he's determined to reach double digits rushing next week.

The only thing that's going to get me through these next couple months without Romo is listening to 94.1 and 97.5 all day.

 

[crashintonickdm]

Romo needs to come back asap.

Just a mere two weeks ago they were 12-4 at worst. Easily one of the best 2 or 3 teams in the NFC if not the NFL.

Then last week it was....well, we didn't play our starters much in the preseason. They were rusty in the first half against the Falcons and dominated the 2nd half. They just couldn't dig themselves fully out of the hole. But we're good now. 12-4 here we come. Commence domination. Assault Santa.

It'll be interesting to hear what they have to say this week. I'm sure it'll be how they can't keep wasting this much talent. You can't possibly keep trotting out Sam Bradford onto the field and keep losing games. Even though he's like 18-32 as a starter or something like that.

So the Falcons have to beat a Weeden led Cowboys team to go 3-0 in our division.

I don't think they imagined them looking this bad vs the Cowboys.

All week it was "well look at the Vegas line." Eskin said there was no way the Eagles lose this game. They talked about how they were going to walk up and down the field on this defense.

I really think this is going to be a week where a lot of the callers are going to do be jumping off the Chip wagon.

DeMarco Murray 2015 stats

Week 1 - 8 carries for 9 yards
Week 2 - 13 carries for 2 yards

The uniform may be greener, but the grass isn,t.

I would love to know what a real RB could do behind this line .......

 

[pugilist]

let's be honest with ourselves here guys, Bradford was the cowboys MVP today. I don't know if he's just skiddish from all of the injuries, not a good fit for Kelly's scheme, or just plain not good.. but were it not for all of Bradford's gaffes our cowboys get blown out

and I do think the defense played well.. but make no mistake Matt Ryan, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Russell Wilson will not have the horrid game that Bradford did today.. Weeden just needs to take care of the football and we have GOT to get our running game going

 

[ErikWilliamsHeadSlap]

Howard Asskin should get back on NFL HQ and explain to everyone again how much better Bradford is than Romo. Yet Romo only needed to play half the game to beat him.

 

[dogunwo]

I wonder if Kyle Orton would want to get off his couch and make a few million dollars...He had a QB rating of 87.8 for the Bills last year, 18 TD 10 Int.

There is no way Jerry would pay him any more money

Eli looked just as bad and he shares Peyton's DNA.

Give the defense a little credit. We finally have the right combination of talent and nicknames.

Brees lost at home to the Buccaneers.

 

[viman96]

Did someone say 18 penalties tied for the most ever by Dallas? Or was today a new low point?

 

[ErikWilliamsHeadSlap]

We were sloppy last season for the first 2 games. Must cut out the penalties for Weeden to have a chance. Would also like to see more of McFadden.

 

[dogunwo]

How much of a cap hit do we take releasing Romo in the offseason? He's too expensive as a backup.

My favorite Eagle fan quote so far "I don't have the energy to jump off the bandwagon right now."

I never thought our offense would be in such a shape that I'm hoping they hand it off to Joseph Randle.

 

[jobberone]

Not really. The game was never close after the blocked punt for a TD. And even before that they could never move the ball on offense all game.

Correct but we didn't exactly set the world on fire either.
