Is he suggesting the Cowboys game-planned?

And he thinks they played well for having not game planned? Hmmm

For a team that talked so much trash before the game (something I really have never heard of for a preseason game) for him to then come back and say this stuff is kinda lame. He acted like they were gonna roll all over us Friday.

The Titans had the ball less than 10 mins in the first half and their back-ups were in on defense in the 2nd quarter. .

It was backup DB's on that last drive, soemthing Buck pointed out like 12 times in 2 minutes...but whatever

Your team had the ball for less than 10 mins because offensively they couldnt do anything. And lets face it, if not for a couple of stupid penalties on us you guys would have been shutout or held to a FG

Tony Romo shredded the Titans first team secondary like a hot knife through butter, as Brad Sham would say.

Jeff Fisher said that they "didn't game plan".

Guess what?

Dallas didn't even look at Titans' film.

This makes me laugh....."game planned"?

The Titans were the ones throwing out cornerback blitzes.

I find it funny that Oilerman said that when the Titans starters left that they were leading......It reeks of a coward that sucker punches someone, then runs away, then claims to win a fight.

We were owning your team all night. There was nothing to indicate that the Titans could mount any type of sustainable drive. The TD drive was aided by lame penalties.

Our team, on the other hand, moved the ball well all night long....well, minus the first drive. We stopped ourselves a few times, and when that didn't happen, there were terrible spots by the officials.

CowboysZone LOYAL Fan
I said it many times. The home teams in preseason game plan more and are almost alsways favored. See the Raider game as an example. Tennessee is an absolute powerhouse with very few, if any, holes...plus plenty of depth.

The Cowboys looked pretty sharp. I'm thrilled about that. I would not read anything into how good the Titans are though. They should be very strong.

We obviously game-planned because we ran an end-around to Crayton. Tennessee was just using a Madden Play-calling randomizer and a Ouija board. You can't take anything away from this game for anyone.

The Tennessee Titans got drilled, again, by the Cowboys!

That's 2.

How ya doin? :lmao:

I like the 2006, 102% grade A butt kicking, too.

Was that Albert Haynesworth getting tossed around like Raggedy Anne by Andre Gurode?

Actually wrong, the whole secondary was back -ups,The DL was Dave Ball, Kevin Vickerson, Jonathon Haye and Willams Hayes on the DL and rookie Gerald McGrath and Ryan Fowler at LB....

Those are all back-ups....

Hell on the Titans last few offensive drives of the first half they had their 3rd string RB in there, Javon Ringer and Chris Johnson got all of 3 carries.


The next time the Cowboys drill the Titans, again, they will play the game in Nashville. The game should be in Dallas, but we'll come to you.

I love taking over that stadium, so Jerry can sign autographs.

I'm not taking issue with the fact Romo and the Cowboys had their way with the Titans(in a preseason game....lol). My only point is Dallas clearly had intentions of putting on a good show for their opener. No one plays their starters into the 3rd quarter in the 2nd preseason game. Dallas clearly cared about looking as good as possible. The Titans did not care regardless of who game planned or who didn't. Their entire back-up defense was on the field in the 2nd quarter.

I was listening to 1310 this morning and they were talking about how Jerry obviously ordered Wade to play the starters longer. Its plain as day.

If it makes ya'll feel better than more power to you but take it for what it is.

LOL... do you know how easy it is to crack jokes about the Wade Phillps coached Cowboys right now?

The last real game(44-6) the Cowboys played is all the Cowboys need to be thinking about, not a preseason game

Sure the Cowboys wanted to "put on a show".

Exaggerate much? You sound as if we played our starters for three full quarters.

Not true.

Romo and Co. were out at halftime....just like your offensive starters. We had starters on defense out...that I'll give you....but for one series....not the full quarter.

Look. You have your own issues.

Look, the Titans fumbled again.

CAW!

CAW!

CAW!

Quote the Ravens,

Nevermore.

While Tennessee should be thinking about being the first #1 seed in NFL history to lose to a #6 wild card team. The only thing that saved you further embarrassment beyond that was Eli doing the same thing the next day.

Who would think that two New Jersey franchise QB's could both blow the #1 seed to a #6 on consecutive days???:lmao2:

Tony Romo was 18-24 for 192/8.0 YPP.

That was your first team secondary getting shredded like Swiss cheese. Your offense couldn't stay on the field, and they went 3 and out, like 3 times in the first half. Only Dallas' "great" cover units let you get 3 on that one drive where you went backwards, after starting deep in Dallas territory.

If our dummy RT doesn't move on 4th and 4 chain links, that is 7 more on that other long, grinding drive.

That was the Titans first team defense huffing and puffing while being dominated up and down the field in the first half.

466 total yards for Dallas to 140 total yards for the deep, almighty Titans.

Kerry Kollins was 8-11-1 for 55 yards/5.0 YPP. He wanted to go deep some and either didn't have time or he had to check down when he had time.

It wasn't 45-14, but it was a butt kicking. Dallas had 217 yards rushing that day. However, the time of possession was real lop-sided on Friday night.

40:57 for Dallas and 19:03 for the Titans.

Only Dallas could have the Titans up with 50 seconds left after kicking their butts up and down the field for the entire half. What Tennessee have? 30 yards or so before they finally scored a TD.

Felix Jones took care of that! Three guys were around him when he caught the ball. 1-800-SEEYA!

Chris Johnson's big ego isn't talking smack now.

Its obvious by now that the game really bothered you. You wouldn't be fighting this hard otherwise. None of us haunted the Raiders board all last week like you are doing here now.
