How bout them Cowboys! *OFFICIAL Week 9 NFL Thread*

[RPD]

49ers offensive looked like 100% horse shit. They had a bi-week and still muffing snaps with the new center. I don't care who we get back on defense, that isn't our problem. They won't be making the play offs.

I was really pissed at the goal line play calling, I wasn't able to watch the first half of the game, but way to make the Ram's injury ravaged D look like the all pro team. But short and goal and we were still, STILL passing the ball. Apparently the coaching staff didn't learn anything from the SB.

I think its more that the Rams are better than their record would indicate. They almost beat Dallas when they were rolling, almost beat Philly, and they beat SF and SEA. They lost bad to KC, and I don't know what the deal was with the MIN game, but they seem pretty solid.

If my team took it in the ass as bad as Denver I'd want everyone else to focus on other teams too. :biggrin:

you don't have to get so defensive

besides, we all know if anybody took it in the ass this week it was SD

Word! The old cowboys systematically exterminated the natives and were very, very close with their horses on that lonesome prairie at night, if you get my drift. Their diet consisted exclusively of beans and burnt coffee. They expelled more methane gas than the cattle they herded. They were MEN, gawddurnit!

The current Cowboys are overpaid prima donnas who shop lift underwear and get into high-pitched hissy fits with each other in the locker room. They are America's team in the same way that obesity, serial violence and flat earth fundamentalism define so many of us.

Face it, they are the Kardashians of the NFL.

If you need more proof, look no further than smackababy's bedroom, where numerous full-color, two-page fold-outs of Tony Romo are scattered about the room, the pages mysteriously stuck together by some sticky white substance which he fiercely maintains is Elmer's Glue.

Hey! It is Elmer's Glue! If it appeared after huffing the fumes, it can't be anything else, right?

Look, with that team in Denver you have to take your shots when you can, but yeah... I didn't watch the game to see just how bad it was.

Before all the o-line problems, the brownies were working it to make up deficits. Now with even more offensive problems, why not lot j.f.football have the ball and see if he can kaepernick it.

Because JF isn't built like Kaep ...

It was 3rd down with 10 sec left

The play
Complete Highlights

Although I will say even the IOS ESPN app wasn't currently reporting the time correctly. Anyways, it should have been plenty of time, although a sneak into the pile is some risky because of the scrum.

This is a strange season. So many blowouts in games with evenly matched teams. Reminds me of NCAA football.

Alright then I guess I can calm down. 10 seconds is WAY different than 2.

It's their entire OL this year. Even when Iupati was healthy he played like shit. They gave up 8 sacks yesterday? Holy shit that is awful. I'm sure Kaep escaped a few more as well. Not going to get anywhere with that situation.

If they make no changes what chance do you give them of making the playoffs.

 

[Imported]

The 49ers? Less than 20%. I think this year you'll need to be 11-5 to get in as a wildcard. Don't see them winning 7 of the next 8.

Pretty low, IMO. The Cardinals have pretty much won the NFC West at this point and they would be fighting for a wild card. Now, Look at the NFC North and the NFC East. Both have two strong teams. They are going to have to fight through Seattle, Green Bay / Detroid, and Philly / Dallas. Plus, whoever else gets on a hot streak, as the season isn't over yet. Unless they can go on a 6 game streak to finish season, I don't see them doing it. While that isn't impossible, it is rather improbably. I don't see a team with a 9-7 recording making it this year, from the NFC West. Now, they have some what should be easy wins coming up (NYG, Washington, and Oakland), but they also have Seattle twice and finish the year with the Cards. If they take both the Seattle games, I'd give much a much better chance, but by then it could be too late. Other teams have a much easier schedule incoming IMO. Take the Cowboys, the only teams that are worrisome are Philly twice and Indy. If they split the Philly games, lose to Indy, and win the rest, they are 11-5. And that isn't even the strongest team to worry about, IMO. Detroit and Green Bay are going both make it, I believe. Well, Detroit if they find a way to no beat themselves.

Looks like lattimore done with the NFL before playing. Wonder what the terms of his insurance policy was or did just getting drafted & sign negate it.

Was referring to the brownie QB situation.

Ripe for the picking.

If they split games, both are making the playoffs. If one team wins both, there is still a good chance, IMO, but not as sure.

I, for one, feel that the shotgun is ruining the manly intimacy between a center and his QB.

 

[JulesMaximus]

Two game losing streak! Woo Hoo!!!

<--Cowgirls hater.

 

[lupi]

another nice instrumental anthem. so much better than all these hack singers they toss up.

Didn't listen to it (still at work) but every single instrumental of the national anthem has been worlds better than anything sung so far this year. The trumpet one from the 49ers/Panthers playoff game may be my favorite.

 

[Reckoner]

How is Eli Manning still a starting QB?

 

[bbhaag]

He won two Superbowls against the Patriots.....
