Good of JJ to hit the throw, but a better throw and Addison walks in.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Wish I’d started Addison over Henry.

Might need to be more of a pass heavy game for Dallas.

That’s a recipe for disaster. Saw a stat the other day that was nothing along the lines of- when he passes over 35 times they’re like 10-20. Under 35 PA and they’re like 30-10

I've always found those stats to be pretty meaningless. Runs and passes are so heavily determined by leading or trailing scripts.

I agree with that

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Cmon man

 

[efactor]

Bummer for JJ. He needed that

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Oliver you moron

 

[Ministry of Pain]

No Dak TDs tonight, all short plunges as the Cowboys become relevant again with tonight's win

even if the Cowboys win out they are unlikely to play in the post season.

Packers and Lions lost today, Dallas would pull within a half game of the final Playoff spot should they win tonight

it's almost as bad as the one where such and such RB gets 20+ carries they win 90%...well no &%(&%&. Dumbest stat line ever

 

[travdogg]

QB sneak it with JJ

Will 10 wins and a tie get a team in these days? Seems unlikely, but you're right, they'd likely at least still be in the conversation week 18

 

[Insein]

Bit cocky there but nice play

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

Oh I hope that pisses them off.

Probably won’t because they’re all buddies

 

[renesauz]

yeah, no issue with not sliding on third and goal.....then gets THAT play to waltz in untouched lol

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

McCarty has skills.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

QB sneak it with JJ

Even better

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Great play call

they really should study you Eagles fans. Your blood cells are probably in the shape of little double stars

all I could think was "don't knock the ball out of your own hands! Just score dummy!" lol

That would have been epic. Fumble it out of the end zone for a touchback would be an all timer up there with the butt-fumble.

Which reminds me I guess it’s time to Google how the whole Sanchez thing is going

 

[travdogg]

I wonder if we could see some Turpin at RB snaps if Javonte doesn't come back?

I might have 3 posts in the Cowboys thread meanwhile 2 of the top 5 posters in the Eagles thread are Cowboys fans, but ok....yeah sure

I have no idea why they won’t use Hunter Lipke.

 

[travdogg]

I think you go for this, defense hasn't shown they are stopping

My bad, I thought we were just having fun.

I forgot.

we are

 

[oldmanhawkins]

According to google, the NFL record for PF + PA in a season in 919. Cowboys are about to pass 800 with 3.5 games to play.

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

@Cowboysfan8

1 time out left with over 6 minutes in the half. Sometimes things never change.

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

Feel free to block the guys chasing Prescott offensive lineman.

They’re not getting a wild card. They’d be 2 behind GB, and Det and Car have the tiebreaker

 

[travdogg]

WTF Dak? Basically ran into getting sacked by 2 guys.

 

[Insein]

Wow. A miss.

 

[Cowboysfan8]

NOBODY wastes time outs like the Dallas Cowboys

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

WTF Dak? Basically ran into getting sacked by 2 guys.

To be fair, he probably thought his offensive linemen were gonna come to his rescue, but they just stood there and watched him get chased down

Ok I’ll bite… who do Joe Walsh & Don Felder root for then?

 

[efactor]

Aubrey with a miss. Is this Opposite Day?

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Wow. A miss.

 

[My_Bench_Scores_More]

Arrrrggggghhhhhh… that's a chip shot for Aubrey!

 

[My_Bench_Scores_More]

Wow. A miss.

 

[renesauz]

Dallas is such an odd team. Capable of beating anyone....and capable of losing to almost anyone. Let's call this one an L, though obviously not a high confidence pick. Minnesota 34-31 in a shootout

I don’t see the MIN offense capable of. Shootout, even vs. the DAL secondary. In fact, I went out and picked up a bunch of DAL D for this week (and NYG D for next two).

no better then the Washington defense that Minny ran up a score on last week.

There is really no result in this game that would surprise me, but I do think the Vikings are likely to move the ball well enough to make you regret your choice

interesting how the dbc post I quoted was deleted. Wonder if he stuck with Dallas Defense

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Jefferson’s mustache is… a choice.

 

[travdogg]

Biggest surprise of the 1st half so far: Goose egg for Pickens

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I’d sure enjoy a long Lamb TD before the half.

 

[travdogg]

Think they shouldn't have stopped running on the end of that series. They were gashing the Cowboys D, plus they could have run clock. Didn't like the fade to Jefferson call especially.

Trying to force a TD to JJ. Anyone else is in single coverage, and MIN has consistently gained yards with short throws to Jones.

Just too predictable.

 

[renesauz]

while I appreciate the reasoning for not blowing whistle too quickly....that wasn't close

 

[travdogg]

Be aggressive here Dallas, don't just play for the tie.

 

[travdogg]

FB screen is a choice...why?

 

[renesauz]

hard running turned a 4 yard loss into a 3 yard gain

 

[efactor]

No kidding. They are playing for the FG

Not 1 target to lamb on that drive. They were clearly playing for the FG. I only wish they played for a longer one. lol
