Game Thread W5 - Dallas v Philadelphia (1 Viewer)

This would have been an unreal game had it not been for Drew Bledsoe being Drew Bledsoe.

It was back and forth and really a blast to watch. McNabb is the man. He makes plays and makes other people around him better. Bledsoe does just the opposite.

It has to be time to put in Romo. 6 turnovers is too much for a veteran QB on a team that was supposed to challenge for a playoff spot. Bledsoe continues to make rookie mistakes and continues to make bad decisions.

I do think the Cowboys made a statement here as well. Lots of people gave them no shot at all and in spite of Bledsoe we still almost won. It isnt like the Eagles defenders were making great plays, Bledsoe threw the ball right to them twice.
I think this game only shows that the Eagles and Cowboys will really struggle to go deep (if either will) into the postseason given their glaring weaknesses. Eagles defense isn't even average and the Cowboys with Drew just doesn't cut it.
Right, the Eagles D, leading the league in sacks, held a potent offense in Dallas to 17 Offensive points... I can see how they are below average. :loco:
You get 5 turnovers, you shouldn't allow 17 points and they weren't garbage TDs at the end of the game. If that was Barney in there, Dallas would have had 31 offensive points.....And don't say the D came through with 5 Turnovers, Bledsoe handed them all to the Eagles....
just one thing: :ptts: :ptts: :ptts:

 
" 3. Bledsoe sucks. I have defended him over and over but before the season even started I said Romo shoudld be the starter. Bledsoe will beat the easy teams but he is not good enough to beat the good teams. We have a tone of talent on offense and defense but Bledsoe continues to put both sides in bad positions. "

Yes, the Eagles D played lights out but this statement is true as heck. I am wasting no time picking up T. Romo off the waivers this week.

Typical idiot. Yeah, Dallas sucks. We were one play away from tying the score and putting the game into over time. Bledsoe sucks. I wont argue that but to say Dallas sucks just shows youre an idiot.

No, you actually have the idiot on your team now.Wait, 2 idiots, forgot about the idiot kicker. Congrats!Oh by the way... :ptts: :cry: :ptts: :cry: :ptts:
 
Is the Philly circle jerk still going?
Yeah, the nerve...They win the biggest game of the season (so far), make Owens a non-factor, and go a game and half up in the division.And posting all this stuff in the *game thread* no less. What the hell are us Eagles fans thinking?Oh, have the Eagles now beaten a so-called "legit" team now?

I heard the NFL is going to allow the Cowboys to put an asterisk next to this loss...."yeah, but they were just one play away from tying the score". It remains to be seen though how that will fit into the tie-breaking system.5 Turnovers.7 Sacks.QB looked like a scared puppy.

Bledsoe: Go ahead, blitz, and you'll pay

Staff and Wire Reports

IRVING, Texas - Dallas Cowboys quarterback Drew Bledsoe is ready to turn Terrell Owens loose at the Linc.

Asked about facing the Eagles' vaunted blitz tomorrow, Bledsoe didn't back down yesterday.

"When I've got the weapons that I have right now, yeah, yeah, go ahead, come after me as much as you want. Because I'm gonna get the ball out of my hands into the hands of one of these guys that can score from anywhere on the field," said Bledsoe, who has a strong wide receiving tandem in No. 1 Terry Glenn and No. 2 Owens, plus tight end Jason Witten.

(I guess he meant Lito?)

"When you're limited, weaponswise, then that can change... With what we're doing game-plan-wise to handle the blitz, and with the weapons that we have, yeah, I welcome people. Go ahead, you can come after us and try and pressure us. But you're gonna have to deal with some consequences when you do."

Owner Jerry Jones said the Cowboys' weapons are forcing opposing defenses to adjust.

"There's no question that we're backing them off with Terry Glenn, Terrell Owens and what we're doing in our passing game," Jones said on his radio show. "We've got them backed off. We've got them playing pass defense. That always helps your blocking."

Coach Bill Parcells also has noted that Owens and Glenn have taken some pressure off Bledsoe and the offensive line.

Talking about adjusting to a blitz, Parcells said earlier this week: "Well, you definitely have to calculate when you're going to take your chances there, because you can get beat. Those guys can hurt you."

(Jim Johnson :thumbup: :thumbup: )

Parcells is not worried about the crowd. He said yesterday he figured the fans wouldn't have much of an impact.

"The key is the same as always. It's an execution game. If you execute well and things go well, then you usually wind up playing well," he said. "If you don't, you don't. The crowd doesn't have anything to do with it, in my opinion."
