***MNF - Cowboys at Chargers*** (-1.5, 51) 8:15 (1 Viewer)

[renesauz]

Every time Pollard gets the ball, it's like he's looking at a team portrait of the Chargers D.

Nowhere to go

there's your big Pollard play

 

[Truebluey]

Chargers being Chargers

 

[travdogg]

Reverse jinx strikes again

 

[Ghost Rider]

First down at the nine. Right back where they started a few minutes ago.

And it could have been 10-10 going in for 13-10 or 17-10.

Exactly.

 

[rockaction]

I thought Achane was much better in 2021.

Yeah, I gathered.

I drafted Spiller in the second round, so it's not like I reached too badly, but I passed up some guys that might have been beneficial, though I can't really come up with anybody off the top of my head besides Brian Robinson and Dameon Pierce, who had similar draft capital issues, IIRC.

And Pollard!

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Nice play by Dak! Chargers D quit halfway thru that play

 

[renesauz]

they really should change the timing rules after long plays.

 

[SoBeDad]

Jimmy Johnson looks great for an 80 year old guy.

 

[timschochet]

Wow! Great play by Dak. Terrible tackling by the Chargers.

 

[Todem]

Does anyone kick field goals any more?

No because analytics have ruined common sense.

Except for the times when they have fixed stupidity.

Coaches make better decisions now than ever, that's why when they don't it stands out more.

Lol if you think so.

 

[rockaction]

Exactly.

No, not exactly.

Not even close to exactly. You're trading about thirty yards of field position in total, which is valuable real estate.

 

[Ack88]

I was only able to turn this on just now. Is the score a case of great defense or incompetence on offense?

Typical Cowboys- some good fantasy numbers, but not many points.

 

[renesauz]

No because analytics have ruined common sense.

Lol if you think so.

I tend to agree with him. Better decision making in general now. Love it or hate it, analytics has made coaching better

There is no talking to people who are a slave to analytics. I think they are useful, but the "you should go by what the analytics charts says every single time" crowd have convinced themselves that there is no other way. And there is no middle ground with them.

 

[FarFromHome]

We need Ceedee. Er. I could use some Ceedee for my make believe team.

 

[renesauz]

more bad tackling. Should have lost a yard

 

[travdogg]

And Pollard!

Loved Pierce in that draft, wasn't too keen on Robinson (might be wrong there) it was a pretty poor RB class overall, after Walker and Hall.

 

[FarFromHome]

We need Ceedee. Er. I could use some Ceedee for my make believe team.

I don't get ponts for holding.

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Keep holding on.

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Hold me closer, Tiny Dancer

 

[Todem]

God it’s embarrassing how the NFL has a team in LA…..that plays 17 road games.

 

[SengerCJ]

10 - 10.

Okay, every anti-analytic guy happy?

You could say they wasted 6+ minutes doing the whole “pin them deep, receive the ball at mid field, finally kick the field goal” bit. 6 minutes that they may need later. Idk if this checks out but I’ll stand by it.

 

[dickey moe]

Dak's scrambling like a witch tonight.

 

[renesauz]

just need Allen to outscore Lamb from here

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Credit to Dak- some pretty passes tonite. I thought Cooks was retired

 

[travdogg]

Need 12 more from Allen/Lamb. Let's go 4th quarter big plays.

ETA: Oof. Allen might have been gone there

 

[Insein]

Herbert?! WTF?!

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Allen has a cloak of invisibility. Nobody gets that open every play

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

Herbert?! WTF?!

He’s no Dak Prescott.

 

[Todem]

Lord brutal game.

 

[Truebluey]

Get the feeling these refs like being on TV?

 

[efactor]

Another nice Palmer catch wiped out on a penalty. At least 3 tonight

 

[renesauz]

beast

 

[Boston]

Get the feeling these refs like being on TV?

Or their fantasy teams are playing against Palmer.

 

[dickey moe]

Geez with the penalties.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Brutal game so far.

That holding call on 3rd and 1 was brutal

 

[Todem]

Herbert…..has a cannon. They need to get a real offensive minded Coach in there and get a DC.

Too much talent on this team to be playing like this.

Staley has to go.

 

[Sam Quentin]

Horrible call

 

[renesauz]

that should be LA ball

 

[efactor]

Geez with the penalties.

Yeah. Definitely not contributing to the enjoyment of the game

 

[SengerCJ]

lol… Tolbert touched the ball first

It was almost #47 on LA but Tolbert got there first by a hair

 

[travdogg]

that should be LA ball

Sure looked like it

 

[travdogg]

lol… Tolbert touched the ball first

I get why he did it, he has no way of knowing it didn't hit the returner.

 

[culdeus]

Stupid rule. Should be called for fair catch interference

 

[rockaction]

What was Jalen Tolbert thinking?

In real time, all I could think of was Leon Lett.

 

[TheWinz]

LAC ball!

 

[Bankerguy]

Bet Lamb +335 ($100) Over 99.5 yards.

 

[SengerCJ]

lol… Tolbert touched the ball first

I get why he did it, he has no way of knowing it didn't hit the returner.

Totally agree.

Where he went wrong was not grabbing the ball and holding onto it, is he stupid?

 

[rockaction]

Stupid rule. Should be called for fair catch interference

Agreed.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Understandable but terrible decision by Tolbert there.
