NFL Week #5: TNF | Houston Texans (3-1) @ Dallas Cowboys (3-1)

CZ fucking idiots saying Tyron Smith was awful today. They see one play where he gets beat (and Watts was awful close to being offsides if he wasn't) and they go ape shit.

RETARDS- Watt is the best defensive player in the league. He probably had his least impactful game of the year, and they are complaining.

There's a reason I don't post at that fucktard infested place anymore and haven't in several years.

 

[dbair1967]

Did Watt really even have a good game today? I wasn't really impressed, but Phil Simms is saying he was EVERYWHERE today.

He lined up everywhere and had a few flashes in the backfield, but nothing like people were basically expecting.

He got no sacks, no QB knockdowns, no batted balls, no forced fumbles. Was credited for 4 tackles. And on the vast majority he wasn't really getting blocked by multiple guys. Even Leary owned him 1 on 1 a few times.

That pick Tony threw was hideous. He has a bad habit of ducking (and therefore not looking) before he throws.

I'll cite this and Sheik's observations about Williams earlier and make a general comment.

When someone points out something they've observed about a player, I don't call them a "hater." I resolve to pay closer attention to the players in question, perchance that I might see for myself, what others see.

It's part of "How to not look like a Homer" 101. Objectivity.

 

[Doomsday]

Hey Dooms, explain to me again how Dez isn't worth it.

Worth what exactly, Gomer? He is worth what dallas is offering, not what he's calling for.

And they say nothing about Witten, who Watt beat badly at least twice that I saw.

 

[bbgun]

BB can you find that one where he pulls through the hole and knocks that Texan guy several yards? That was kinda Larry Allen-esque

game wasn't on here in DC, so no chance to record it

 

[Doomsday]

I think its obvious to all that one of the reasons we can run the way we have is because of the way teams line up to play defense against Bryant.

*yawn*

Dez Homer alert.

Now it's DEZ, that lets us have success running the ball.

I kinda expect all world DE's to beat TE's in 1 on 1 blocking situations

 

[ZeroClub]

What a crazy game.

They did manage to win despite turning the ball over several times. They beat the odds by not beating themselves.

Key to the game was not allowing points off our turnovers, and scoring points off theirs.

 

[dbair1967]

Gloomsday proving he doesn't understand the game again.

If a defense dedicates two guys (and sometimes three) to take away one player, if you don't understand how that might benefit the rest of the offense there is just no hope for you.

They need to clean up some stuff though, we were fortunate to come away with the win.

The two turnovers we had in the redzone were the difference in this being a comfortable win instead of a major nail biter. Also had a few dropped balls. Run defense was really exposed in 2nd half.

They're not doing it on obvious running downs, goof. And they also aren't doing it at the line. They are roughing up his release sometimes, sometimes just covering him two deep. None of this has shit to do with the running game.

 

[Doomsday]

Ya can't say anything at all critical about Dez, or the hero worshiper homers go nuts.

How many "obvious" run downs a game are there?

Hell Dez isn't even in there on a lot of those.

The fact is, teams CAN and DO take Dez away when they want. It's documented.

BUT, you'll observe in this game, that lasted only for the first half. Bryant still wound up with nine catches.

 

[dbair1967]

Murray only 3rd player in league history to start a season with 5 straight 100+ yard games.

Other two are Jim Brown and OJ Simpson.

Murray's game today also set another Cowboy record, first player in team history to have 5 straight 100+ yd games

So if its so easy to do (as you have proclaimed numerous times in this thread alone) how is it he continues to post the kind of numbers he does? Wouldn't he be a totally insignificant player?

 

[Doomsday]

Murray only 3rd player in league history to start a season with 5 straight 100+ yard games.

And leads the league in fumbles.

That needs to be cleaned up.

They do it every time it is tried.

I cited earlier what Dallas needs to do to get him some help in that area. It ain't all him.
