Cowboys vs Packers

[bcoop]

GB will get DESTROYED next week.

[Rreemo]

It's no secret that I'm a Green Bay fan. The scenario yesterday wasn't the greatest for me b/c I'm still somewhat a Cowboys fan as well....they just aren't my #1.

I have to throw props out to Romo, I think the guy went into that game humble, he played with integrity, and he showed us again how tough he can be...and I'm saying this having not been a Romo fan in the past. I also question the call on Dez...initially sure looked like a fair catch to me, but after watching the recaps, frame-by-frame, etc. it's a tough call...I think it comes down more to a shit rule as opposed to a bad call. I also wonder how it would have been called had he not tried to showboat and rollover for a TD....I think the call may have been made (in the moment) at least in-part due to the way the ball appeared somewhat out of his hands while on his back during that rollover. Hell, McCarthy may not have thrown the flag if it wasn't for that.



Either way, they played a good game...were they the better team yesterday? I don't think so....but I've also seen GB play a helluva lot better too. I would be lying if I said I was confident about going up against Seattle now...that's going to be a tough game, especially not having Lambeau cheering them on. Qwest is a brutal environment to play in (where the fans are concerned)....especially in a championship game.

Some will go, some will stay. Dez and Carrot top will stay for sure, maybe Murray. They will do anything they can to keep Dez around!

Murray, Bryant, Durant and Spencer are free agents today. For that matter so is Garrett.

Wasn't just the Dez catch, there were countless other bad officials calls/no calls .

I think the Cowboys did well considering the way the game as officiated.

Green Bay has zero chance of winning in Seattle unless those same Officials call the game .

Man, I really don't think the officiating was that bad. It certainly wasn't as bad as last week, and I don't think it benefited one team more than the other overall. Sure, that one instance would've been a really big swing but so would have been running it on 3rd and 1 prior to the catch/no catch rather than trying back to back deep passes. Dallas had a lot of opportunities to put the game away but they couldn't.

[bcoop]

as I said yesterday, too many other things to point to as to why they lost. That said, Bryant made that catch and a "football move" to anyone with two eyes and a brain. But it wasn't the reason they lost. Had Murray not fumbled they could have put it away.

[BP]

Guess this is the last day I can get half off Papa Johns for a while.

You can use codes for other teams.

Dan Bailey had as much to do with this loss as the officiating. Dude was a rock star all season and muffed two kicks back to back (after the penalty). Had he made that field goal it would have been a two point game in field goal range where Dallas could have taken the lead with a little over 4 minutes left.

That and I think Garrett lost his faith in his kicker, which is why he decided to go for it on fourth and two instead of taking the three. They had plenty of time to get the ball back and score again.

That rule sucked when it was called against Calvin in the season opener against the Bears a few years back and gave Chicago the win, and it still sucks. I do like seeing it used against another team however, and particularly like that it reversed a call on the field just like picking up a flag on Wild Card weekend did. Maybe Jerry can lobby Gov. Christie to get the process rule changed.

Hey now, they invented the tuck rule for Tom "Gay" Brady

[krazy kris]

Well maybe now I won't see "we dem boys" all over the place. That's got to be the stupidest ghetto ass shit I've ever heard.

[The King]

Yes, the officials lost the game for the Cowboys, blah-blah-blah

Of course, Romo getting sacked several times had nothing to do with their loss. The better team (and 2014 pride of the NFC North) won over the best that the NFC East could muster.

I didn't say it mattered. The rule is completely idiotic and needs to change.

Agreed

The cowboys were outplayed today, but that was a shitty note to end on. I'm glad it was Dez, maybe he'll bring a few more in next year. He dropped a bunch this year.

I'm a huge hater of Dallas, but even I can admit Dez is a badass. He dropped 5 passes all year. Definitely not what I would consider a "bunch"

[Nash B.]

He dropped a bunch this year.

Wat?
