NFL Week #13: Thanksgiving Games | Philadelphia Eagles (8-3) @ (Dallas Cowboys (8-3)

[Sheik]

Who would want that shit in their house? Or in the backyard?

Tacky.

 

[Midswat]

There's no good or relevant games on Sunday.

Romo was off tonight... Think he may have re-aggravated the back or injured something else. Passes were floating and trailing off target the whole 2nd half.

The OL looked terrible.

Defense is the same old defense. We're winning games with smoke and mirrors. The offense has been able to run the ball and it keeps the defense off the field. When the run is taken away, we can't do shit on offense. Then the defense is on the field for to many plays and they get exposed. There were WRs running wide open all night. Carr was terrible, he just passed Maclin off like he was playing a zone, and no one was behind Carr to pick Maclin up. Then the very next play he did the same damn thing with no one behind him to pick up the WR. Luckily Sanchez overthrew his target.

If we're lucky enough to make the playoffs (huge if right now), any offense we play will be running up and down the field.

Lol

Since beating the Tennessee Titans this past Sunday, the Eagles have maintained that they did not start worrying about the Dallas Cowboys and their Thanksgiving matchup until after the game was over.

The Cowboys? They sound like they might be a little bit more prepared.

"We prepared during our bye week for Philadelphia," Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said to USA Today, "so we've got some hay in the barn."

I hope a tornado flattens the stadium while he's fucking the peanut girl in his suite tonight.

Our 8 wins are against the Jags (1-10), Titans (2-9), Giants twice (3-8), Saints (4-7), Rams (4-7), Texans (5-6), and Seahawks (7-4).

The Seahawks win is clearly enough to sign Garrett to an extension.

 

[yimyammer]

Yeah they're a matchup nightmare offensively... on paper.

But they just suck.

I mean I don't know how an offense that features Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jefferies, Matt Forte, and Martellus Bennett can't get more than 21 points a game but they struggle.

I think we win.

Hope you're right but today's beating makes me think the December swoon arrived early

 

[Midswat]

Looks like I'm not having any mayonnaise

Ouch.

[Sheik]

Can you guys imagine how bad it would have been if they didn't spend the bye week preparing for Philly? Ohhhhh man.

Wow. So the only real change from previous years to this year is the names of the shitty teams that Dallas beats.

 

[VTA]

Ya think we're seeing the real Seattle tonight? Not the one we played.

No. I think Philly beats the crap out of them and that's that. Their D is good, but relying on 4 FG's won't fly against Philly or GB in the playoffs.

Two games in a row, same score. 4 FGs and a TD to one FG...

 

[bbgun]

Let's see if we put Romo back in.

Betcha Garrett does.

DMN:

Why was Tony Romo still on the field with seven minutes remaining and the Cowboys down by 23? I sure hope it had nothing to do with trying to extend his 38-game TD streak. A 34-year-old franchise quarterback with back problems has no business being on the field in that situation. Somewhat surprisingly, Jerry Jones didn’t mind.

“I was OK with that,” the Cowboys owner said outside the team’s locker room. “We still needed to compete.”

 

[KatzKorner]

We'll see how the Cowboys do after that fiasco; hopefully, they learned what not to do!

 

[Hoofbite]

Broaddus is such a rage tweeter after losses. Just fucking spams Twitter.

What they do is just, stop people. All of the above is what most said about Seattle going into their super bowl vs. Denver.

Several sports writers have speculated the same thing about Romo's back/health on Twitter. All things considered, it seems likely.

It is sad to think that Romo is in decline. Even though he's playing some of the best football of his career this year, he can't do it consistently due to his body breaking down.

I think it's why they decided to get serious about running the ball, and why they seem to greatly hesitate to go into all out air raid mode. He simply can't make those throws anymore.

Nobody ever truly gets over invasive lower back surgery. Ever.

Yeah ... I guess so.

Which makes it even stranger that Romo wasn't pulled when the game was out of hand.

I don't understand the thought process.

Me either.
