Seahawks @ Cowboys

[Paul]

ooo, Free looked pretty good on that one.

[M.O.T.H.]

Gotta pass now, call #17's number. :D

[FreshBoy!]

*Sighs* I wish we could get this running game going again!

[M.O.T.H.]

Ogletreeeeeeeeeeeee

[Paul]

Even better. Ogletree.

[herniateddisc]

Our two best WR are Austin and Ogletree.

Williams is at best a #4.

[Paul]

Good. Didn't want them to get to 20.

[M.O.T.H.]

3rd straight game without an INT for Tony. A personal best. 5th no INT game of the year, improving upon his personal best.

3:1 TD to INT ratio on the year.

[D-Unit]

No phoney Tony!!!!

He's carrying us this year!

[leroyisgod]

Very solid win. Need to get that running game going again.

[herniateddisc]

GOOD THINGS ....

1. D settled in after playing pretty bad first half
2. Turnover battle won
3. Penalties way down
4. No injuries
5. Continued development of Romo Austin
6. No INT

Bad Things
1. Witten and Williams are having bad hands games.
2. A little loose with the ball (Williams TD and Romo fumble)
3. No enough running IMHO during this game -- we seem to be reverting to 2007 looking for 15 Yards per Play
4. Safety Pass D still sucks
5. Run D kind of bad. A few ++5 yard runs to Julius and Edgerrin. Yuck.
6. Too much trickeration with Crayton and Austin running.

Well I gotta admit I was wrong to some extent. Of course it's too early to call things as fact, but the Eagles really shined today. As much as it pains me to say, they're a pretty good team.

On the Cowboy side of things, this is exactly what should've happened. You have to blow out the bad teams in style. Not much to complain about outside of a few mistakes. Every team makes mistakes though. It's all about not making them when things are crucial. The pass game was solid, the pass rush was very good. The run D was good outside of a few runs, and the only real beef is not using the run game more. I think this team is ready to go into Philly and get 1st place. Next week the chips are definitely on the line.

Our ST's is the ****, that's all that needs to be said :D


Coverage units, return units, punting and kickoffs, Joe De has been one of the biggest additions we brought in. Considering how attrocious we were last year in that aspect, it's very refreshing to see the change. Very obvious that we put in a concious effort to turn that around.


Now if only the same could be said for penalties we might be going somewhere.....


Honestly if we could cut down on stupid penalties in key situations I think we could definately go deep in the playoffs, I'm gonna see how the team performs vs Philly first. We should be pumped to erase memories of last years 44-6.

[E-Man]

Yeah Joe De deserves all kinds of praise. It's a good thing the special teams isn't a serious problem like last season.

[M.O.T.H.]

Speaking of penalties, this was a very clean game on our part. Something like 5 penalties and one was that dumb ass hit by Hamlin.

And I feel I get to gush about Hurd just a little more today. :) He played a great game all around, he had the one penalty but, he had himself a ball game. Our coaches had him down for four tackles and he made a great play on that short cross. And his blocking, was fantastic all day long. He had a real good one on Crayton's TD. <3 haha



You still think he's slow? :)

Oh, that Austin guy is pretty good also. :D But really, he played fantastic other than that fumble. Got a couple of pass interference calls that may have cut into his yards a bit. One of those was pretty generous but, w/e. The refs are giving him calls, I like it. Gotta love the energy he plays with. Miles and Sam always have big goofy smiles on their faces when they make something happen and I love that. A lot of passion for the game with these two. They seem to play that much harder than others at the position. Not taking anything for granted and always looking to get better. Undrafted WRs for the win?

Joe De Camillis for HC!

The whole "we needed to draft 13 billion special teams players" was a joke idea. Changing the ST coach was big. Getting Felix back was big. Getting Buehler was legit. But the other rookies... are they aren't doing jack on STs.

[M.O.T.H.]

Vic Butler has played well on ST. But it's mostly Watkins and Hurd making the plays on the coverage units.

edit...Ball has been good as well.

You're right, but three of them are hurt. Does anyone know why J. Williams was inactive?

[dpl85]

This years draft was all about pinching pennies because of the cost of the death star and saving money and cap space for Ware.
