What did the defense do so differently to Foles that other teams can't?

[CowboysFanSince88]

I am not going to lie, I am very concerned about us losing the division now because the eagles now have a awful skins defense coming up and then a bye. So now we have to make sure we stay tied with them for the NFC East because they can easily pass us.


But what the hell did our defense do so differently that the raiders and packers could not?????? I mean I know I am not the only who thought that after the eagles fell to 3-5 with 2 striaight road games at Oakland and Greenbay, that we would not be sittting pretty right now with a 2 game lead since the eagles woiuld be 3-7 and we would be 5-5 after losing to the Saints tonight,.. I thought this game against the Saints was a "throw away game" since we would have a cushion after the eagles lost 2 in a row or atleast one of those games.


We really need to win tonight but I know we have no shot and that sickens me

The Packers had multiple chances to pull out that game with the 3 string QB that was just promoted from the Practice Squad. It was much closer than the score indicated.

For one, both long TDs passes were ducks that should have been INTs.

One reason could have been the wind and also many of Foles' receivers dropped his passes.

And maybe Foles just had a bad day. It happens.

 

[TonyRomo17]

he seems really lucky, if you see the scores they were all 50+ yards passes. he honestly looked awful at times in this game

 

[ElGatoGrande]

The wind saved the secondary's collective arse while Monte Kiffen and the Boys front seven did a masterful job on McCoy.

Foles throws a long pass up for grabs. It popped out of the DBs hands into the WRs hands for an easy TD.

Foles was stripped of the ball and the defender ran it in for a TD. On replay, the refs ruled it a fumble, but said the defender was down at the point of recovery, possibly because they blew the whistle.

At least 2 other would-be TDs by the Packers were ruled out of bounds by about an inch.

The Eagles got lucky that Rodger was out of the game.

I thought everyone on this board felt we had no shot tonight.

You thought wrong, but then I'm not surprised, all your posts are negative toward the Cowboys.

Cowboys 27
Saints 33

Seriously, everyone and their mother had this game penciled in as a LOSS 6 weeks ago

We've won 3 of our last 4, and the Aints have lost 2 of their last 3. Of course we have a chance.

I'm sure Colt fans thought the same about the Rams today. Anything is possible.

You mean he threw some Eli's?

Yall defense trying to stop their offense in the dome? Come on man, why even set yourself up for a disappointment

 

[CowboysFanSince88]

So now Foles is going to me pumped in the media all week again and will be viewed as the next Tom Brady.

And I am stunned since he did nothing against us. Plus we didn't eve have Ware

 

[03EBZ06]

Then I guess Cowboys should just forfeit the game.

"Yall defense"? Are you a Cowboys fan or not?

 

[DuceizBak]

He had a groin injury and possibly had a concussion early in the game that nobody noticed...
