It seems like Aubrey won't be the 1st kicker to make 100 percent of his kicks. With Dallas scoring so much, it's likely that Aubrey will miss another kick before the end of the season.
Never expected him to, but he's on a really good run for a "rookie." Can't call him "Automatic" Aubrey because of the PAT misses. I guess he's just "Semi-Automatic."

Oh boy, this truth will get some riled up...what is the noise I am hearing in the woodwork....here they come.....I have some fresh.:popcorn:
Constant trolling of fellow members even when there hasn’t been a negative word said. Actually inviting it so you can call them out.

I guess the holidays are empty and lonely for some here.

I’ve never tried a kick but seems like PAT should be easier than a FG of same distance and easier than a longer FG. But I may be wrong
One of the things to keep in mind with PATs being 33 yards is that kickers generally attempt more PATs. The more attempts you make, the more likely you'll eventually miss. Aubrey has attempted 36 PATs to 22 FGs, so that means even with the three misses, he's still made 11 more PATs than FGs.

I guess you are feeling guilty as well.

Not empty nor lonely for me at all. You projecting?

Why do you care, you don’t have much room to criticize.

Uh, I don’t try to invite negativity from other forum members but I know when somebody is fishing for it.

it’s like your so giddy about the possibility of a member saying something negative that you have to try to make it happen just so you can feign righteous indignation.

That makes sense.

Great point.

Why would a 33 yard extra point be easier than a 33 yard field goal?
Same distance would be the same but many of his FG are farther. Just seems to me 33 is 33. But as someone pointed out he’s attempted many more extra points

Terence Steele looked better. I don't care if it was against bums, he needs to get his confidence back. He definitely did look faster and more spry
He just seems to be coming around after the injury

First, Romo is much more Cowboy-friendly than Aikman. No surprise. But I thought his commentary was dead on.
*The O-line IS looking much better. Yesterday I saw actual, real big pockets. I haven't seen that in Dallas since the Travis Frederick lines. Biadiaz still is subject to
a bull rush now and then, and Steele still isn't completely healed so is less mobile to outside rushes, but overall, they are doing an incredible job of picking up stunts, holding their ground, and getting enough on run blocking to finally open holes.
*McCarhy has definitely changed the play calling from dink and dunk to old Oakland Raiders/Cowboys of the 1990s style of downfield passes. People will whine that Dak missed a couple of, yea, maybe easy, deep TD throws. But that was pretty common with every deep ball team.The thing is, WHEN you hit those, it's almost certainly a scoring sitution of some type.
*Pollard is looking like the back he was when #2 behind Zeke.
*Our kicker is simply the best in the league. Now, about those PATs. . .
*Quinn's D has led the league in takeaways now for THREE STRAIGHT YEARS. With Odigiezuwa and Hankins, we finally have the middle mostly solved. Yesterday although Romo did NOT mention it, I thought Vander Esch's presence was missed. But that was not a fatal problem as it was in the past.
*It looks to me (don't know the stats) that our red zone has gotten much better
*Also, Romo didn't mention and I don't know the stats but it sure SEEMS as though the pre-snap penalties are way down.

Second, Romo correctly said this team has all the ingredients to win a Super Bowl. Obviously the big (playoff) games are coming. But I haven't felt this good about our O since Zeke's first year.

Third, Romo praised Dak, who merely is the best QB in the league over the last six games INCLUDING the E-girls.

Last---and this is my comment---teams with bad records often have bad records cuz they play teams like us. Two of the Giants losses came to us. Romo pointed out that the Foreskins had two Pro-Bowl tackles, but we handled them with ease.

I see a totally different team than the one that lost to AZ and SF. The Eagles game, according to all, was very easily a Cowboys win.

Love having Romo announce. He was back to his play calling analysis.
Romo played with Zack, and Tyron...

I had a different take on Romo's pumping up the Cowboys as a Super Bowl team.
I think he was trying to put the pressure on the Cowboys more than confirming them as a legit Super Bowl team.
I mean, his teams were loaded with talent too, but he never made it.
Yeah, it was all Romo's fault, right?

Slightly off topic, but to all those who spew the narrative that Tony wasn't a leader, I offer this:
