Cowboys Vs Giants ****Game Thread****

[Rocky]

Radio problems on Cowboys sidelines in the 1st half.

 

[Vertigo_17]

yes, always see RW running into the picture 'after" the ball is caught

 

[Vintage]

Meet the new boss; same as the old boss.

Maybe its the players.

 

[Clove]

Radio broadcast says that Romo had no communication at times with the O-coordinator - technical difficulties

 

[GTaylor]

Everson Walls with grey hair isn't making me feel any younger!

 

[ElGatoGrande]

It's the whole Keystone Cops routine that makes this team hard to watch,,, gone are the epic battles between the Cowboys and other good teams, now we have to watch and hope that the other team can out-stupid our team...

 

[Dave_in-NC]

You two get a room. Just kidding:

 

[JakeCamp12]

Can someone explain to me that why when we blitz a safety or corner, instead of avoiding the blocker, we run into the blocker and get shut out of the play??? I thought this was a Zimmer technique, but I am still seeing it...by the way can Everson suit up, hell he has to be better than what we have....:

[Teague31]

it drives me freakin nuts that other teams (i.e. philly) can find ways to get TO open vs. double teams but we cannot.

 

[Zman5]

Parcells' was right. There is not much difference between his 3-4 defense from last year and this 3-4 tonight.

 

[SuspectCorner]

It's gonna be a 16-game regular season just like always. Sure would bolster confidence if the Pokes were able to make a few halftime adjustments... something I haven't seen for the last decade or more.

he was probably yawning too much

 

[Frosty]

WOW! After 30 minutes of the season, people are ready to slit their wrists. You doom and gloomers call yourselves true fans, when all you do is cry woe is me!

Some of you so called DIE HARD fans are pathetic!

NO we are tired of seeing the same thing year after year...a DEFENSE that promises to be better, yet its the same OL' song and dance. no pressure and gives up the Big play

 

[Novacek84]

No one is giving up on the team.

But this is eerily similar to the last six games of last year.

Our defense couldn't get off the field....couldn't tackle...couldn't pressure the QB....and we had WRs wide open.

That's what's frustrating us. Some of us need to vent.

We have Bingo!

 

[Achozen]

Everyone remain calm. The Cowboys lead at the half, what else could we ask for at this point? Sure we have lost players, but so have the Giants. Let's go Cowboys! The pass rush looks better to me than in previous years, at least we have a guy coming free once in a while and not just colliding with another Cowboy at the line of scrimmage.

That's not saying much. Canty and Spears are M.I.A. The only time Canty showed up was when he tackled Reeves on the INT return.

I'd hit that...twice

Halftime — Dallas 17, New York 16

Goat of the half — Tyson Thompson. Fumbling a kickoff in the last fifteen seconds of the half is inexcusable. It handed New York a free three points.

This time it worked — Marion Barber bounces everything outside and it can drive you nuts. It worked on his TD run but on the play before he passed up a sure short game, tried to bounce it wide and was dropped for no gain. It’s feast or famine, but he brought the big run on 4th down.

– Tony Romo to Terrell Owens — 4 attempts, 0 completions. A couple of plays look like blown routes by T.O. The others were poor passes by Romo.

In fact, Romo has only one completion to a WR so far.

– On the other hand, look at Jason Witten’s line:

3rd & 7 — Witten for 10;
3rd & 6 — Witten for 23;
3rd and 7 — Witten for 23;
3rd and 10 — Witten for 9 and a foot. Barber scored TD on the following play;
3rd and 10 — Witten for 12 and a TD;
Romo has a new security blanket.

– The kick coverage units are okay. All Giants returns are to the 25 or shorter.

– Jason Ferguson is out for the night with an elbow injury. Jay Ratliff has shown some grit as his backup. No news on the severity of Ferguson’s injury.

– Brandon Jacobs is also out for the night. I heard a report his injury could be serious but have no confirmation.

– Wade Phillips has a reputation as one of the best in-game adjusters. He’s tightened things up considerably after Eli Manning bombed his defense one and almost hit him for a second TD.

– That said, the coverage is better but Dallas still is missing way too many tackles in the secondary.

– New York has had some success splitting Jeremy Shockey wide and pitting him against Roy Williams. Williams has given him an eight to ten yard cushion and it’s an easy catch for Shockey every time.

most disappointing aspect of this game is how pitiful Roy Williams is playing. Slimmed down, now cannot lay the wood but still can't cover or tackle.

 

[Kaika]

Same old Cowboys
Poor Coaching, Poor Game plan, and too many mistakes.

We are definetly not one of the elite teams.

I wouldn't mind if the mistakes and problems were different this year , but they're not!!!!!!!!!!!
It's the same old thing!!!!!!!!!!!

No secondary and no pass rush.
I can't see any difference in our "D" than we had last year and last year we SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!

Man, I'm frustrated already.

 

[Pokes12]

Fellows,

We have a very stupid team and the coaches are right behind them. How do they not tell Thompson to cover the ball with 21 seconds in the half?

If I see Roy Williams trailing the touchdown pass to Burress and anyone else I am going to Puke!!!!

Other than Witten we have no receivers. The only wideout with a catch is Crayton and he only has one. Great offense. Keep 21 out of the game 24 has heart and a punishing attitude.

Does anyone see anything different in the defense from last year? I don't.
