Hook and ladder.....it was actually well designed. Dallas didn't bite and get sucked up on the original receiver but I could see how that could work if defenders bit.

Not a fan of either team, but what a great game to watch! I hope my Steelers can hang with Philly next weekend...

I can buy the getting beat in the playoffs, but I bet they win the division. They really need to clean up the ####### penalties if they're going to succeed in the postseason.

Tony Romo said it well in the post game interview on the field. We beat a good football team tonight, and I believe that.
Last year, in Week 1 Dallas beat NYG 48 to 38 and after that game, I felt disappointed. Disappointed because I didn't think the Giants were that good going into that game. Little did we know that they'd end up winning the Super Bowl.
I'm not sure what we just witnessed tonight, both defenses certainly have their weaknesses but I think it's fair to say if both teams don't get dinged up, they should be in the playoffs. It would be hard to imagine a bunch of better teams in the NFC that would keep both of these teams out.
Kudos to Philly....I think they had the game until McNabb fumbled the handoff to Westbrook. McNabb kind of played poorly at the end, with that handoff and then allowing Ware to sack him right next to the sideline creating 4th and 17 and burning there last timeout. In all though, McNabb played very strong especially moving around in the pocket.

Until the last couple drives when it really counted.Anyone following the game can see why Eagles fans get frustrated with him, can you blame us?

He may take a while to answer this post. He's loading up his ice trays with d-cell batteries.

Nervous isn't the word, excited is.The Cowboys don't have anything wrapped up, but they've got a fun team to watch and if they don't win the division, they'll be right there. To say they will easily win the division when the SB Champs are in the East would be silly.

I missed it myself, but I'm sure we'll find out when some annoying group protests the comment.

I can understand the frustration because Tony Romo is the same way. He gave the Eagles 14 points in about 20 seconds in the 2nd quarter. It' s a little easier for me to stomach than you because Dallas won, but if the Eagles win that game, you better believe all eyes would have been on Romo.

Yes, if you get frustrated with him, then I blame you. He's the best QB you guys have ever had. He led you to the NFC championship almost singlehandledly three times, and to the SB. He faced a good defense tonight and they played well when it counted.You Philly fans have never given this guy the respect he deserves. He's been one of the best players of this decade. I shouldn't be surprised, because you guys booed Mike Schmidt, as well. I was really hoping McNabb would have left a few years ago and led another team, maybe Minnesota to a SB. But he has chosesn to stay, and you guys will never know how lucky you are. There are at least a dozen teams in this league that would be begging to have this guy.

Best guess in the FFA is that he said this in response to the broadcast of the TD in Spanish early in the game."I took high school Spanish and that either means 'Nobody is going to touch him', or 'could you pick up my dry cleaning in the morning.'"FFA also believes people are way too sensitive.
Unless there were 2 instances of him apologizing, it was right after McNabb underhand tossed that scramble to BW....Tony paused then said he just had to comment on how "Brett Favre-like" that was. Bleh, company man, has to make sure Favre gets mentioned a minimum/quota of times each broadcast.

As a Cowboys homer, I wish you'd stop at illiterate. His broadcast career is starting to become the Matrix III to the Matrix II that was his time with the Cardinals. Combined, they're almost bad enough to run all the memories of the unbelievable original.

was he wrong? Emmitt is the man! you be a hater!

As a Giants game, this game really scared me...These are two really solid teams.
I was under the impression that it had to do with spanish or mexican futbol or people or somesuch. Came in late though. One announcer read the eagles vs cowboys in spanish and he said "on that note, I'd like to apologize"

yeah, cause cornholer is a company man.

Ok, then you don't get it. Don't get upset, most people don't.
a friend of mine pointed out to me that he has a strut or swagger when he's doing well or going to do well and doesn't when he's about to stink. I've been noticing it to be true quite often. He just kinda walked onto the field very non chalantly, before he goofed. It's very odd. Keep an eye on that, it's just too odd.

What am I missing?
I feel like alot of teams are lopsided right now. They either have a real good D or a real good O but, precious few have both. I think the Giants are one of the few that have both. It's early and I still like the Cowboys and Eagles Ds for the long haul but, they gave up alot of points tonight. Most weeks that many points will equal a loss

God, make it stop!
maybe so, that makes some sense.

As a fellow Eagles fan, I get it. I was so excited last week when I saw McNabb trusting his receivers to make plays, not having to get two yards of separation. Tonight in the last two drives, he reverted back to the guy who holds the ball too long waiting for someone to be wide open. It cost him dearly. And I have no idea what he was doing on the double-clutch botched hand-off. He certainly fooled Westbrook.I still like Donovan and think he's one of the best QB's in the league. But he has to show confidence in his receivers and settle down in clutch situations. Hopefully he'll get more comfortable as the year goes on. Whatever the case, this is a pretty solid team and it should be a much better season than last year.

Stealing a recent post from the Eagles thread, but probably won't get you all the way there...

OK everyone let's look at it the right way.
1) Best offense in the league and that can't be debated.
2) Our ALL-PRO SHUTDOWN corner is limited to nickel/dime packages.
I just don't think anyone in the division has a chance. We get pacman in game shape put newman on an island and this is a much better D. Not too mention quite a few points were given tonight on turnovers.
You just watched the super bowl champs tonight

2nd rookie WR to do that. The other was an Eagle WR and it was a long time ago. Sorry don't recall the name

People like you making comments like this is why the average NFL fan hates Dallas and Dallas fans. Show some humility.

It's like listening to two elder statesmen talking clowns honking at each other.
that's all we do around here is debate.I don't think much of their 2nd and 3rd WR options. Certainly Cincy and Arizona have better 2nd WRs.You'll say Witten is better than their TE, which is true and....see we can debate
