Game Day ***Cowboys vs Giants 1st half game thread***

[remdak]

1st and 20. Will the defense still give up the 1st down?

 

[JohnsKey19]

Playing against arguably the worst passing offense in the league, yet we still are lining our Safeties up halfway to Connecticut. Unreal.

 

[coult44]

Are we Minny and Jax fans today? Who else are we cheering for?

 

[FLCowboyFan]

It’s the same bs that kills us every week. Pick plays and short routes

That is because that is how our D is designed. To keep everything short in front of us. The idea is to make the offense make a mistake. It just doesn't work most of the time.

 

[Trouty]

LOL. You guys crack me up

It never ceases to amaze me.

GO COWBOYS!

 

[kevm3]

If we lose we might get a new HC so I'm not mad

Do they do anything else?

 

[BigD5]

Holding and roughing the passer calls.

Mara and Blank no longer colluding or what?

Well the roughing the passer was blantant and extremely unnecessary.

And sure they called holding. The first one in how many weeks? And they could’ve called NY for holding on every single play on this drive

 

[john van brocklin]

Wut holding on the giants o line, you cant call that?

Dont get it, lol, we never get offensive holding flags

 

[HeavyBarrel]

Better not give up 18 on 1st and 20

 

[TNCowboy]

Our D getting dominated by one of the league's worst offenses.

 

[erod]

Garrett too polite to challenge the post fumble spot has at least tied the game for NY

He tried.

You can't challenge forward progress.

 

[pugilist]

can't stop the run
can't cover
can't tackle
no awareness on turnovers

at least Garrett gets fired?? please?

 

[DoomsDayD]

I just dont understand why i do this to myself every week. It is like jamming a fork in your eye over and over again.

 

[Floatyworm]

Good angle, Anthony brown. You should still be on the bench

Actually that was on Awuzie...he got picked....no call.

 

[jblaze2004]

we got a holding call against us. We are weak at DT. We need to scrap our offense and defensive scheme. Would love to fire Jason Garrett but I doubt that happens.

Rob defense would probably work if u have a offense that can get up and allow the dline to just rush the passer. But we are giving up way too much in the run game. Easy yards.

 

[Jake]

Goodell's contract squabble is over. Now it's ok to call offensive holding calls against our D again.

Good job, Detective.

 

[Tabascocat]

I absolutely can not believe Garrett did not challenge that 3rd down fumble that was recovered behind the sticks. Is there some forward progress rule I am missing on fumbles or is he just that idiotic?

When the Giants score it can be blamed on that alone, who cares about anything afterwards for that drive. Someone please correct me with a rule

Unchallengable play there.
