Bush td... Cornerback goes for the big hit instead of wrapping him up. Idiot.

Don't worry avvy, look how my first prediction of the weekend's going thus far 😉
Bollocks to the lot of you. Arizona are going down. 8)
I hope so jj. Int sharper.
Maybe not
'Zona down 35-14 at half time ... Game should be over ...
Ryan, are you the latest Cowboys fan? 🙂
Indy really did a good job against the ravens, who missed some chances (20-3). I think they'll struggle if they have to play the Chargers, but time will tell.
Saints raped the Cardinals - they just weren't capable defensively of stopping them. 45-14. Not sure if they're back (the Pack also put 45 on this D). I really thought the Cards would be a better match up but credit where it's due - the Saints just handed it to them after that shock TD run to start the game.
So I said the Wild Cards have an advantage? Ha ha, 2 games, both #1 seeds win comfortably.
Today it's Dallas @ Minn and Jets @ SD. Going by yesterday, I wouldn't be surprised if the #2 seeds continue with what we saw yesterday. 🙁

fucking hell.. and i was gutted when the Lions didn't draft him 🙁
Oh boy. Reality check and a half there.
RIP Gaines Adams. Thoughts and prayers for those he leaves behind.

Half Time Report
Vikings lead 17-3.
A few points:
1) The scoreline flatters the Vikings. The Cowboys had two very good drives in the 1st quarter and botched opportunities to put more points on the board.
2) The vikings D-line is fantastic, I really wasn't aware how capable they were
3) I don't know why - but I feel the Cowboys aren't really 'there' - it just seems this is the Cowboys of the pre-4 game winning streak.
4) Favre has been flawless - credit where it's due.
5) Rice's 1st TD was fantastic.
6) Cowboys won't be winning this one. Pity, I really thought we could get to the SB.

Well well... Cowboys new kicker misses 2 FG's thus far... you reap what you sow.

Haha, some Cowboys defender moaning to the Vikiings for running the score up by getting a TD on 4th down. Quality.
I thought you followed football StGeorge. We had to sign A KICKER. Folk couldn't hit shit and Suisham was the only availble one who could actually hit a kick. 'Reap what you sow'? What exactly did we sow? we asked Folk to become shit after 2 great years?
I hope Johnson demands a trade next year. That's what the Lions truly deserve - give him a chance to actually play for a proper franchise.
As for the game:
1) I guess it's easy to see why they're 8-0 at home. Their defense was just phenomenal - I think they hit Romo 15-20 times, and sacked him 6 times. I don't blame this on Romo - he was in the position Favre was supposed to be in.
2) The Cowboys didn't show up up. Credit where it's due to the Vikings, but the Cowboys didn't make it that difficult on them after the 1st two drives into Viking territory.
3) Favre's 4th TD pass was a joke. While saintgeorge may laugh at it, there's a 'unwritten rule' about running up the score. There's a reason the Saints stopped yesterday, they have class. Before that, I started thinking, "I hope Favre wins the Super Bowl to end the hall of fame career." Now I'm firmly in the, "I hope the Saints embarrass the Vikings" camp.
Oh well, I hope the Jets win. I'm really surprised how easily the WC teams have been handled.

You're insulting one of the true class acts the NFL has - and I'm not vexed, just look at my comments. I didn't realize what an advantage the Vikings at with home field advantage, they deserved their win. But I was being serious, thanks for your brilliant contribution to this thread.

Ha ha. Okay mate. Never let it be said I don't know when I'm out of my depth.
You can post wherever you want on this site ... and I can thank you for your contribution wherever I want to too ... We're a loving society here on 6cm (well, that's not 100% true but we try to be some of the time ... well, yes, some of ... I give up. Good night)

I thought Wade might have saved his job....
Not so sure now.
[/quote]
You've raised an interesting point - I really can't figure out WHY we played so badly. Was it the noise? Was it Flo going down early? Was it over confidence? One thing really irked me this week - Favre was basically saying the Cowboys would win, "Cowboys are the hottest team," "Jenkins will be a super star", "It may be my last game" etc etc ... I really think the Cowboys last week got to the heads of a lot of players ... Maybe we were too 'confident'. I think I'd still keep him ... He's made this defense one of the best in football and the offense just needs one more playmaker (Maybe Ogletree can 'Austin'?) to become far far more potent.
Did Roy Williams even get a pass thrown his way? We have gotta get rid, if possible, this off season ... What a pathetic trade that was ... One of the worst of all time.

I just don't think we're that good.
There is plenty of potential though. Just need a coach with some guts to get it out of them.
Cut Williams tomorrow. I don't care what the salary cap hit is.
Team Needs: Another playmaking receiver/ young blood on the o-line/ athletic middle linebacker/ ballhawk safety.

Golden Tate and Brandon LaFell should still be on the board. Tate is a good bet. He's fast, good lateral movement, and dangerous after the catch. He'll be a good vertical threat in the pros.

Ryan, are you the latest Cowboys fan? 🙂
[/quote]
No mate, although I was kinda hoping they'd win today.
Was in Dallas for the post-Philly self-congratulating and made it along to the stadium for a look around. A seriously impressive bit of work that. Mind you, they had plenty of space to work with given that devery hotel, shop, doctors, and fucking building in the State seems to have about 5 square miles to play with.
Nice place though.

I think we are good - and I think we're closer than you give us credit for (but you seem to be very tough on the teams you love! 😉)
Plyamking receiver - I think Ogletree is one. Though we should try and make a move for Boldin.
Young Blood on O-Line- Free is good, but yes, 1-2 additions (be it FAs or draft picks is key)
Atheltic MLB - no need imo. James is that, and Brooking is the leader on the D.
Ballhawk Safety - amen. MC raises good options but I would like a Sharper like player.
JETS WIN! I have a feeling they may surprise the Colts too ...
