    Day After Thoughts: Giants beat us again

    I trust Witten a hell of a lot more than Dunbar. Elliott wasn't on the field. (As I mentioned, I'd have had him out there for sure but that's not the point) Witten isn't much of a downfield threat at his age now anyway, so they are using him in the roles he is best for in that situation...

    Cowboys Likely To Keep Will McClay, Their Not-So-Secret Weapon In The Personnel Dept

    Fisher has eons of losing experience. We don't need him here in any role. He's a fuckup.

    Goff to start

    And the GM keeps his job apparently.

    Day After Thoughts: Giants beat us again

    Not disagreeing. All very valid points. Its only two games (and the Viking game was nowhere near as bad as this one) so maybe you just chalk it up to he had a bad game and move on. All this will be moot if they come out and play good offense vs Tampa like they did during the first 10 wins of...

    Day After Thoughts: Giants beat us again

    9 carries for 21 yards isn't "working" Laz The last two drives they had to pass pretty much because of the situation. That was 7 of the pass plays. Its not like it was some massive all game pass happy game plan.

    Day After Thoughts: Giants beat us again

    Where were the other routes run to? You cant run everyone straight down the field every play. Needs to be some outlets somewhere.

    Day After Thoughts: Giants beat us again

    Play calls on 1st down: run, pass, run, pass, pass, pass, run, run, run, run, pass, pass, run, pass, run, pass, run, run, run, pass, pass. 11 runs, 10 passes. Eh. Again, they ran it with some success in the 1st half, the Giants did what good teams are supposed to do, made half time...

    Day After Thoughts: Giants beat us again

    Yesterday. I think there might be an article up on ESPN now talking about Jones' comments today and what Garrett said. Like I said I think its a really tough situation to be in (granted, only if Prescott struggles again). Romo having that PC he had a few weeks ago made this a lot more difficult...

    2016 NFL Week #14: Dallas Cowboys (11-1) @ New York Giants (8-4)

    Yeah I dont agree. Dunbar shouldn't have been on the field for those last two drives (which because of the time of the game and situation, were passing downs anyway) but the Giants did indeed make some good adjustments vs the run, and it showed in the results.

    Day After Thoughts: Giants beat us again

    Well before I left, I was mentioning that I thought this was a huge statement type game because here we were at 11-1 and a chance to go into another good teams place and 1) Clinch the division and 2) Clinch a 1st rd bye. It was a chance for a young team to show everyone in primetime they really...

    Goff to start

    They got rid of Fisher which was good, but Goff looks as bad as any #1 pick overall QB that I've ever seen. If someone makes him into a legit NFL QB, it will be quite an accomplishment I think.

    2016 NFL Week #14: Dallas Cowboys (11-1) @ New York Giants (8-4)

    Might have been, Broaddus made a comment that Leary apparently ran the wrong blocking assignment and that's why the play got blown up.

    2016 NFL Week #14: Dallas Cowboys (11-1) @ New York Giants (8-4)

    I think they could have ran it a little more, but the Giants did a great job stopping the run in the 2nd half too. You have to give them some credit. Zeke's 2nd half rushes: 3, 0, 13, 2, 4, 4, -1, -6, 2, That's 9 carries for 21 yards That aint much success at all.

    Moving on to Tampa Bay

    They manhandled Seattle at home, beat KC on the road and also beat the falcons in Atlanta. They're improving every week it seems.

    2016 NFL Week #14: Dallas Cowboys (11-1) @ New York Giants (8-4)

    Does the same rationale apply to the Giants defense then? We had guys open all over, but unfortunately our QB didn't see them or misfired on several passes.

    Football Life on Troy Aikman

    He also injured his knee towards the end of his rookie year.

    Football Life on Troy Aikman

    I really don't think he had doubts about Aikman, but I do agree with what you said about he only drafted him to trade him. I remember Jimmy commenting publicly when they made the move that after studying the NFL and talking to a number of really good coaches, that he learned then that you HAD...

    2016 NFL Week #14: Dallas Cowboys (11-1) @ New York Giants (8-4)

    I don't see much blame for the coaches this time. The defense played their best game of the yr and if it hadn't been for one great play by OBJ they'd have had a near perfect night and we'd have won the game. Prescott and Bryant pretty much lost the games on their own.

    Headed to Vegas with the wifey, wont be back till late Monday evening. Hope you slobs can survive without me for a few days. I think Sunday night could be one of those benchmark type wins if we can pull it off. The Giants will play us tough and even without JPP their D is still physical and...

    2016 NFL Week #14: Dallas Cowboys (11-1) @ New York Giants (8-4)

    They are, although they did lose at home to Tampa a couple weeks back. (Tampa worries me for us next week) They have some good wins though, and looking like they are going to win tonight.
