We would have stopped them anyway even if they would have made it.

Love the confidence. It seems that the head coach and the players really believe in themselves this year.

Maybe we should just put a GPS inside the ball and let the satellite determine placement.

It isn't that close. Wouldn't work.

he wasn't sure if it would have given the Eagles a first down.

Inconclusive. Gotta go with the original spot and that was short so..shut up.

Wade's outward persona maybe like .

However, inside Wade resides a nasty defensive coach.

"I haven't talked to [Pereira]. From what he said, he might have changed it some but it still wasn't close," Cowboys coach Wade Phillips said Thursday. "I have to talk to Mike. We would have stopped them anyway even if they would have made it."

:starspin

I love it. Priceless! :lmao:

Here is what is funny, even tho I don't believe he had the first down even if the spot of the ball wasn't exact. He didn't have much forward progress at all and kind of slid down the pile so too speak.
But.....If the shoe was on the other foot and that was Romo at the top of that pile, would we still be screaming that he had the first down and the call was bad? The answer is YES!
It is too be expected in close calls no matter what side of the ball you are on. When your team wins..you can rationalize that there is bad calls on both sides in most games.. so get on with so too speak.
When your team loses your are not so easily swayed by the fact that all teams get bad calls....LOL , I'm glad to be on the winning side this time...let them fuss about it all they want. We would be doing the same thing.
I agree with Wade this time, we would have stopped them anyway!

Go Cowboys!!!!!

At the end of that play, McNabb was on top of a pile of players and sliding down the pile until he hit the field. Setting the spot of the ball aside for a moment, if a Cowboy player had come flying in and hammered McNabb on top of the pile to stop his forward progress, would it have resulted in a penalty?

Speak for yourself. A good or bad call doesn't change no matter the team.

IMO, this is :espn: feeble attempt to upset the iggles' and Cowboys' fans into calling into their shows/visiting their URL or watching their crapping broadcasts.

Fantastic. Thats a great idea. Thats about as good an realistic an idea as baseballs being able to tell you if it was a strike. Try harder.

What the heck are you talking about?!?. I am speaking for myself...thats is exactly what I said in a nut shell, about a good or a bad call. If it were dallas can you really say that you would of said the call was Wrong? I could care care less what ESPN or the Eagles fans have too say, I said if the shoe was on our foot as FANS.....how would we have viewed the call.

Dang..some people take offense too easy around here.

My tongue was firmly in my cheek when I said that. The more you take the human element out of the game, the less appealing it is. Good and bad calls are part of the game. To be honest with you, I'm not sure why this is stil an issue. Ancient history.
