2016 NFL Week #10: Dallas Cowboys (7-1) @ Pittsburgh Steelers (4-4)

Pretty sure this qualifies as an epic victory.

I started watching this team in the mid 70's (1975) and had seen Staubach do this stuff quite a few times, then saw Danny White do it a few times too.

Today definitely ranks up there with some of those amazing come back wins.

30 seconds ago they were all whooping it up on the sidelines. 2 passes later and Zeke hits the walk-off lol

I'm looking to the future

Look how good both Dak and Zeke are in their rookie seasons.

Now just imagine how good they will be in a two years!

We have the makings of a dynasty if we can keep or O Line together and replace Dez

 

[bbgun]

c'mon New England. we need to put some distance between us and Seattle

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Our bend but don't break defense will ultimately be our undoing if we ever have one. The cracks in that started to form this evening as Ben picked it apart.

So far it took 9 games for it to start to hurt us. Fortunately our O hasn't missed a beat and allowed us to outlast Pitt.

bend but don't break defense

It's never been "bend but don't break." When it's out there much, it gets scored upon. The offense has been keeping it off the field until today is all.

We didn't miss Claiborne or Church vs the Browns much, but we did today. Especially when Scandrick came out and McFadden had to play the other outside CB spot.

Sounds like Church will be back after Thanksgiving (maybe for Vikings) but Claiborne is more up in the air.

I know our defense isn't very good and ultimately might be our undoing, but other than a couple of exceptions nobody is really playing much defense this year.

Watching this Sea/NE game tonight, neither of these teams has a very formidable defense either (I know Seattle is missing DE M Bennett). Hell NE just converted 3rd and 25 on them.

Yeah I'm not scared of either team after watching this game tonight.

It's too early to be worrying about them though. When it's playoff time, they will turn into a different ball game.

Bahahahaha!!!

I want Elliott to get another 50 yards, win or lose.

This is a game we can afford to lose, really. AFC opponent and we have a big lead on the teams in our division, who are all flawed and basically suck.

Might want to recheck that NFC East. Through 10 weeks their the best division in the NFL.

 

[bbgun]

No help from Minnesota, Atlanta or New England.

Seattle's going to to the SB

 

[Scot]

With the SEATTLE Win we now sit alone atop the entire NFL at 8-1!

AFC west is better

Kansas City Chiefs 7 2
Oakland Raiders 7 2
Denver Broncos 7 3
San Diego Chargers 4 6

 

[MrB]

Last week he said this is the game will test Dallas. Every fucking week it is the game that tests Dallas. Our SB is in the horizon and this mofo better be ready.

On the other end of the of the spectrum there's Skip.

Nope, every Cowboy hating media member will be saying this week "well the Steelers really aren't that good" just like they did with Cincy, and Green Bay.

 

[MrB]

The difference between Zeke and just about anyone else at that position in the league is pretty much astounding.

Unbelievable talent who is truly gifted in every area of playing football. Running, speed, vision, power, hands and blocking.

Zeke was blowing guys up today on blitz pickups. Absolutely beautiful!

 

[MrB]

AFC west is better

Kansas City Chiefs72
Oakland Raiders 72
Denver Broncos 73
San Diego Chargers46

My mistake, they're the 2nd best division in the NFL. My point is, none of the teams in the NFC suck.

Our defense is really the undrerrated story of the year. Our offense is simply insanely talented, but Marinelli is making some pretty good chicken soup from chicken crap.

I have a feeling if Sean Lee got hurt we'd see a big difference in the whole thing.
