Wade said he should have 20, can you imagine the controversy if he doesn't break the record because of this?

Call me crazy but sometimes I think Ware's just so fast off the line, it looks like he's offsides but he's really not. Kinda like in Michael Jordan's early years, they called him for travelling a lot because he was so quick and fast, it looked like he was travelling...:rolleyes:

That's actually been true quite a few times. He's jumped snaps perfectly but got called for offsides when video showed it wasn't.

yes, he said that the NFL gave zach thomas the sack, but ware was the one that forced the QB out at the sideline.

Not crazy. Not this time at least. :)

He's been getting those for sometime now. I think maybe the league got the message and is not calling him for those. He's just that quick off the ball.

Frankly you win some and lose some. I would't correct the earlier sack because there are always stat erros. They could always put an asterick in the record books later but I wouldn't change it. If he is to win it, he needs to do so without the errant sack IMHO

That's a weird scoring issue -- can't see how they would reverse it as an argument could just as easily be made that if Zach wasn't there then the QB would have run for a short gain. However, had Ware gotten the sack initially, I doubt any eyebrows would be raised.

The league did review that one. Kinda like the replay rule I guess, indisputable evidence required to make a change.

It could be that the refs are seeing him for the 3rd and 4th times now and that the coaching staff is in their ears to remind them of bad calls made in previous games.

At least I hope our staff is doing that.

He runs a 4.5 40, he looks faster than that coming off the ball.

So would I. He would be the "Jerry Rice" of the linebackers.

Unless the Steelers are involved.

If Ware played for the Steelers, the league would have not only reversed the sack from Zach to Ware, but thrown in an additional one for good measure.

How can a Cowboys fan not want Ware to get the record if he can? Rooting for an individual goal does not mean we don't care about team goals too.

What a completely useless post.


Yeah, cuz people aren't capable of caring about two different thing (the playoffs AND ware's sack #'s) at the same time.
