I think the Dallas RB situation is maybe the best illustration of the dichotomy between Real football and Fantasy Football...We all see several posts each week asking "Why the hell don't they just run MBIII all the time?"...And yet both of them just keep on producing, and the Cowboys keep winning, and they are both fresh and give the other teams different looks to prep for and defend...Personally, as a non-Cowboys with no fantasy dog in the fight, it is a lot of fun to watch this Dallas offense operate with both of them..

The Cowboys fans here have been on that train all year. It's a perfect situation as is.

My early selection for Cowboy's underrated MVP: Leonard Davis. Watch that overview play of the TD. Even though they run the other way Davis takes up two defenders and seals that entire side of the field not allowing anyone from that side to get into the play. He has been doing this all year. The guy is a born guard.

the guy is fun to watch, just watching larry allen push people aroundpatiently waiting for madden to point out his butt sweats to send Bigg to the Pro Bowl

This is a very good point. I never understood the need to make someone a tackle just because they're a high draft pick or because you're paying them a lot of money.

Collinsworth looks like he'd rather be ravaged by pygmies than stuck in that studio right now.

Yep -- it might be frustrating for Jones and Barber III owners, but this arrangement is working great for the team. This tandem is among the best in the NFL right now.

There's an official venting thread for this uselessness.

I wonder what John Madden's carbon footprint looks like...

Thanks. I appreciate your policing me. That is very helpful.

:honda:I was sick of it by the first post in this thread.

This is seriously the dumbest thing I have ever seen on a halftime show. And that is saying something if you have watched any NFL in the last 2 years on ESPN.

Do you think environmentalist really give a #### about football. They are probably out somewhere smoking pot and trying to find the 500th use for tofu.

This green deal is rock stupid shtick. Imagine how much energy they'd save by skipping the whole halftime studio thing entirely?

 

[cowboyz]

nbc is green

...right.

 

[fierce_corgi]

Why didn't they just buy some light offsets?

After watching the halftime show...I turned every light on in my house...what crap - environmental politcal opinion instead of football

 

[bentley]

Crap. I missed the start of the second half. The "green halftime" was so bad that I switched it over to Sports Center.

 

[Bogart]

"It's easier the play the second half when you are leading."

Classic Madden.

 

[bentley]

OH YEAH!

Things could get ugly in the second half in Philly.

 

[cowboyz]

damn i missed TO scoring, did he do a celebration?

he did the eagle flap

My Texas Longhorns would beg to differ.

I know the feeling. Everytime I see a pregame or halftime feature on the troops, I like to go knock over disabled war vets.

 

[simmonjm]

T.O. touchdown after he flaps his wings and the camera focuses on Wade Phillips who is laughing. Very Nice. Thats what you get Philly for cheering when Irvin went down with a career ending injury.

 

[mr. furley]

wtmf was that?

 

[Capella]

Jesus God, what in the hell was that?

 

[mr. furley]

Jesus God, what in the hell was that?

it had a tongue ring for some reason

 

[simmonjm]

Im sorry but I took that personal I was like 15 years old and Irvin was my favorite player and he when he got injured all of Philly cheered. I have hated Philly ever since.

 

[bentley]

R-WIL WHIFF! WHAT A SHOCK!!!!!

 

[Bogart]

i'll let someone else explain. i don't want to think about it anymore.

Dallas starting to get a consistent pass rush

 

[Bogart]

FGs are going to get it done Philly.

Philadelphia's Joseph Ripley a.k.a. "Birdman."

 

[Tyrion]

If Dallas is legitimately keeping Kevin Curtis from catching the ball deep and its not just crappy play calling by Reid, I think Anthony Henry is back.

nm then. if it was a philly cheerleader with a tongue ring i was going Tivo hunting.

No. They showed Birdman squawking and it showed his tongue ring.

Yeah dude don't go looking for that. There is good tongue ring and then there is bad tongue ring. That was very bad tongue ring.Next thought.If I didn't already hate the eagles, I would hate them just because of their mascot. I never noticed him before.

 

[Bogart]

Even J-Jon looking like a stud against this Eagle d.

Sleep with all your lights on. Show 'em who's boss.

good call ref!

 

[Ghost Rider]

How is that guy not ejected?

 

[Tyrion]

There go the dirty birds showing their true feathers.

 

[cowboyz]

hope JJ didn't get a concussion

 

[Bogart]

cheap f'in shot.

Where's Edward Cat?

Great grab by J-Wit.

I'm here eating crow. Tastes good with chipotle bbq sauce.

 

[Sputnikv8]

That cheap shot may boost the value of MBIII. Wasn't there a "Big Tex" thread way back where Julius was saying he was done if he gets another concussion? Dang that hit HAD to concuss him.

DIRTY shot.
