FEATURED My thoughts post Eagles game

[BigDPlayer]

I was considering that during the 3rd quarter this week. I can't imagine we do, given how much experience we've got against it. I think it's a small sample. KC is legit, and both PHI and SD played over their heads against us. We did throw for 320 on them, and were playing without our top-two backs in the running game.

To me it isn't so much the 3-4 as it is press coverage. Our system must be more timing based because we cannot seem to handle tight press coverage.

You didn't mention it Latin, but one of my main thoughts about this game was how TERRIBLE the officiating was. I mean, if we had lost this game, i'd be livid. Dez specifically got molested all game long.

..and how in the hell Earl Wolfe didn't get a personal foul for that helmet to helmet hit is beyond comprehension with how often they are calling that crap now.

 

[RoyTheHammer]

Not to mention the ball off of Avant in the 3rd quarter should have been an INT to Wilcox.

I still believe that was a clean hit. The defender did not lead with the crown of his helmet, he had his head turned sideways. And almost all of his helmet hit chest, not helmet to helmet. I dunno, maybe I need to see it again but I thought that was a clean hard hit

Im going to start this with something a little controversial. And i never thought id feel this way because i was on this guys bandwagon since before he was on anybodys radar and when 99% of Cowboy fans were on Merrimans jock. Ware is becoming less and less of a necessity to this scheme.

Marinelli is proving that he doesnt need superstars on his DL but guys who go all out and stick to the system. The stick to their gaps and play together. McCoy was a nonfactor today.

Lee and Carter are back 100% and are showing us fans what they thought about these guys coming out of college. Carter had some hickups this yr but he's back. Guy is quick to the ball and is using his head instead of just his athletic ability now. I think he got caught up in trying to make a play and he got burned a few times. Now he's learning stick to his assignment and the plays will come.

Wilcox is growing by the week. He's the future at SS, but i still feel church is a liabilty at FS. Dallas needs to address this, this offseason. Playing Church in certain packages will be better for him and this team.

These RBs Dallas has are not going to cut it plain and simple. There was holes and they just didnt hit them today. Randle IMO is Julius Jones all over. You can see it in his running, and it didnt hit me until i realised the number lol. Wouldnt hurt to bring up Meggett.

Cole Beasly should be ahead of Harris no ifs ands or buts. Should even be ahead of Miles. Austin is an afterthought. CBs just cant seem to stay with Beasly after his intial cut. Quick with great hands.

I think we are seeing the decline of Romo. And its starting to show. He's lost a little on his throws and alot of his accuracy if you ask me. They need to draft his replacement this yr and cut him after next yr. Derek Carr is the guy im hoping for.

Hatcher IDC what anybody says. Is a must sign. He blows up the entire middle of the line. People say he's playing for a contract. First he was playing DE in a 3-4, BUT when they moved him inside he always blew up the middle of the pocket. We are just seeing it consistently now because he is a DT in a 4-3.

Nevis is the guy that does all the dirty work. I love this guys motor.

Harris seems like he found his place and thats special teams. I think this team wanted more from him on the O side of the game but he's not going to produce consistently ever. But in the special teams he's a dominating force. Thats his place and thats where he should stay.

This OL had a so-so game and few penalties on Free but he saved Dallas on his FS at the goalline. Romo was going to be killed.

Carr MO and Scan have really picked up their game. Or should i said are allowed to play their game now with more man up play being allowed by Kiffin. It was obvious that Zone mess was allowing too much inside. This team is going to allow some things but since they switched to more man the payoff has been better results and wins.

This DEF shut down a Offense that killed a good bucs defense just a week ago. With Foles playing QB. Theres no question that Kiffin and Marinelli had a great gameplan today. McCoy and Celek i thought would be the problems but Kiffin made both non-**'n-Factors.

Go Cowboys 1st place

Hahahahahahaha ridiculous

Not trying to be rude.. but i would agree you need to see it again. I had the luxury of DVR to watch it, but you could see even on the game replay that it was def. helmet to helmet.

The very top of his helmet hits the very bottom of Dez's helmet. Is that a penalty? I guess. But at full speed that's a really tough call. The refs don't get the luxury of DVR. Now, I'm defending them on that single play, beyond that they were utter trash especially on that no call when that guy jumped on Tony.

 

[Idgit]

Huge over reach on the Romo analysis, looks more like he's being overly cautious with his ball placement. Just two weeks ago he set playing field on fire with fantastic play and got lambasted anyways. At any rate, the dude is near retirement anyways and the team should seize the moment if they get a chance at a top QB.

Dude is 'near retirement' now? Lol.

The crown of his helmet hits Dez helmet first contact.. that's a clear helmet to helmet. I'm more against these stupid new rules than anyone.. but if its going to be called for everyone else, than it better be called for us too.

 

[ElGatoGrande]

That's right giggles, 2-3 yrs and he's gone.

 

[Idgit]

3 years is not 'near' in NFL terms. It's almost an entire average NFL career. It's also not clear by any stretch that 3 years is the actual number. You're exaggerating in order to make yourself feel worse for some reason.

yeah it was really bad. Dez was held and hit all day. I didnt expect any different in philly. Seems they get alot of calls not only against Dallas but against everybody else.

Ha. Apparently you're willing to bend over backwards and embarrass yourself just to engage me,,, how long have I been living rent-free in your head? Since the OL debacle?

This is an off-base and weirdly personal reaction to my pointing out that the QB we just extended to a $100M dollar deal prior to the season is not, in fact, nearing retirement.

It's ok to just say you overstated things a bit in order to make a negative point.

 

[Tommy]

romo looks very uncomfortable against the blitz.

I think he looks uncomfortable because there is a good chance someone is going to get a free run at him and he has about .61 seconds to get rid of the ball. I think our OL needs to do a better job of recognizing the blitz. They didn't do a very good job of that yesterday.

 

[jrumann59]

what people fail to realize that against the Commanders and Eagle Romo's games have always been erratic. That happens especially in division rivalry games.

 

[romothesavior]

Romo is near retirement... right after signing a huge contract extension? He's in decline... in what is arguably his best season ever?

Cowboys fans are a riot sometimes. As Idgit said, you guys are, seriously, unbelievable.

 

[WV Cowboy]

Not agreeing or disagreeing, just find it funny that you are surprised when posters disagree with your opinion of Romo, .. after seeing your avatar and username. LOL

 

[rynochop]

User name aside its completely assinine for someone to say he has a couple years left, near retirement, etc. Nobody is that ignorant, just saying it to rile up romo supporters. Brady and Manning in their late 30s and still elite, so stop it. He will be starting the '17 season so just deal with it.

We bet crap teams with Ware .... and we beat crap teams WITHOUT Ware.
We lost to good teams with Ware.

I don't get your post/point?
