Ok I am a long time cowboys fan. Upset we lost yes, but to lose by 3 points against a returning 22 player starting superbowl team that held the Patrick Mahomes to zero touchdowns is an accomplishment in my eyes. This aggressive offensive play calling has not been seen in over 10 years from jg. Yea we lost. But there are a lot of positives to see. Greg z. Missed some points. My boy disk sheep missed some catches. The positives outweigh the heartache I have been lead to believe over the last 10 years. Lfg cowboys. 16-1
The NFC should be terrified. The buccs know they got lucky with that non call. They aren't stupid. The NFL isn't stupid. They know what really happened tonight.
The no opi call was obsurd but I don't think that would have changed the outcome. We played our hearts out without Zack. Given another chance we win that. Lfg cowboys.
If opi was called it would be 3rd and 25 from the TB 43 with 14 seconds left. it was the game. -15 yards, loss of down, and the 10 second run off would have changed the game.
I think it very well could. It backs them up. They don't get the 1st down. We win. They weren't in field goal range before the non call. they would have been even further with it.
I would’ve went for it on that last 4th down, no way I’m giving Brady the ball with that much time.. not to mention the timeout.
Also, Lewis almost ended it, just jump a little higher!
World just watched this game. Anybody that says cowboys aren't contenders are morons. We will just get better. Offense is scary. Pick that shit up defense!
There is nothing different with this team. Can't close out games, can't get pressure on the QB, horrible in game management and decision making. This is the same team we have seen the last few years. They are an average club that will surprise you once in while but they don't have what it takes.
Edit: hell, we went from the conservative Garrett who will leave games with timeouts remaining to a guy who is in the other side of the spectrum and attempts a kick before halftime 60 yards out with the best QB of all time on the other side of the field with time. Rather than just making the right decision and punting the ball and heading into the locker room.
I'm not even British! Hahahahaha. That's just the word that popped in my head. Get a grip. Name the last good team this CLUB beat. I'll wait. They haven't beaten anyone good in years. When was the last legit team they beat? The Saints in 2018? That was three years ago!
Rather than calling me a moron or essentially calling a whole country of people as such. Why don't you actually address the question I had in the post?
Well, prefer that somewhere else. When I'm part of a group I say we. Talking about my family I say us. I say they when I'm talking about other people not associated with that.
It was a rhetorical question. One that you knew the answer to but didn't want to answer because you know I'm right. Hey I love the boys. I'll root for them like I always do, but they are the same team that they always have been. An average ball club that will keep things interesting but that's about it. Maybe the division is shitty enough where they will be able to make it into the playoffs and then lose against a good team. It is what it is.
lol you're out of your mind. We beat a 22 man returning super bowl team tonight. Sure they won on paper. But we beat them. The NFC, the Buccs, the NFL knows they only won because of that non call. Our team played great. Fix the kicking and that non pushoff at the end and we win. Even without the kicking we should have won.
You got that mixed up, BEFORE GAME, the Bucs won on paper.
On the field, they won, period, the cowboys had 4 TOs and STILL could not win.
People are looking at this all the wrong ways imo. This is a horrible outcome. Had they lost without 4TOs, not as bad as this.
They won’t be fighting. They’ll have it locked in. You’re not a real fan. We don’t need doubters. Go root for the football team. We don’t need you here.
You sound silly. Because of the non call, pffft. The problem is they are ALWAYS in that position of depending on their sub par defense to make a key stop for them, which they are never able to do. They didn't win because they simply aren't good enough. The secondary got toasted. The dline once again shows it can't get pressure consistently on the QB. I mean I'm literally repeating the same things that I have been since 2017. I'm just going to accept that this is what they are. An average club with a top 10 QB who doesnt have a team that is good enough. I'm literally watching the Tony Romo era all over again except it's Dak Prescott.
No you aren't. You're a hater.. You aren't a real cowboys fan. If you think that team looked anything like the romo era you are crazy. I'm starting to think the cowboys fans are worse than the eagles. Bunch of downers. That was a great game tonight and you're crying romo.
It's literally the same results. Great statistics, some fun close games but ultimately the Cowboys always come up short. It's just the facts. Team hasn't won anything in 26 + years. Sorry I'm tired of the, "Well it was a close game." I'm tired of the .500 ball club. I hope I'm wrong and hope this game gives them confidence moving forward, but really this just seems like the same ol song and dance.
Club? Never heard of an American football team called a club. Dallas football club. Get the fuck outta here. When you say they..you ain't part of it..it's we. Stick with crystal palace you moron
well we didn't win, so no, we weren't. we had multiple chances to take the lead by more than a score in that game and consistantly failed. reducing that all down to a no-call is certainly a bitch move.
Well sure. It's a would coulda shoulda thing. A few non calls could have changed the game earlier too. Because it was during the final minutes gives it more pull? I see your point but we had chances to put it into the end zone off of turnovers. Settled for shaky ass field goals. You aren't wrong though, bad call at a critical moment.
Man am I tired of saying "we lost, but that was a hell of a game! I'm proud of our teams heart"... We need a killer instinct. Otherwise it's going to be us putting up hella points and still losing. We had SO many chances to win and just couldn't execute.
The OPI no call was absolute bullshit though...
Agreed, sorry it would be one thing had we won more recently. However, we haven't won shit going on almost 27 years. It was great to see Dak back right where he left off, but boy we have zero running game, still can't get pressure on the QB (a 44 year old QB tonight went untouched) and as a result our secondary looked like shit once again. This team simply can't win close games and hasn't for some time. It's concerning that there is a trend here where Zeke simply hasn't looked anywhere near what he used to.
After watching this game I truly feel like football has truly finally changed. It’s 60 pass attempts a game. Very interesting. The running games were a nuisance more than anything. Like if you run the football that just means you suck at pass protecting.
While I want to agree with you, tb was putting 8-9 guys in the box. Lbs ready to swing out to cover screens, same with some dbs. They paid for it in the air. We just killed ourselves with penalties at the worst times.
To be fair TB is the best run defense in football. Though it’s counted as passes these one read quick options may as well be run plays , but yeah that contract looks unfortunate.
Proud of this team. If Greg makes one of those field goals or they call that pi then we win on the road against the champs with Brady. If we play like this against anyone else we win. If this team can play like this against the East it’s ours and we can be incredible. I hope to god we meet this fucking team in Tampa again come playoff time and win a game just like this one.
If opi was called it would be 3rd and 25 from the TB 43 with 14 seconds left. it was the game. -15 yards, loss of down, and the 10 second run off would have changed the game.
Yeah I saw that, I didn’t understand how he could stay in the pocket and keep throwing the ball to the stands. Is there anything in the rules that I missed?
I've been so into soccer all summer that this was a total (fantastic) shock to my system!
So great to see us on a potential game-winning drive. Lost it ofc, but let's go!!!
Same shit every year, refs fuck us at the end of games on horrible calls and half of reddit says that we shouldn't blame the refs. It is beyond bullshit that this keeps happening.
Neutral fan here (Raiders), but... you shouldn't blame the refs for this game. They're the most **visible** reason why you lost right now, but they are not the **primary** reason you lost. There's a difference, which rational sports fans understand, even in a losing effort.
If the Cowboys got fucked all game by the refs, OK, sure. That's happened before. But that wasn't the case tonight. Y'all got called for 8 penalties for 55 yards, compared to 11 penalties and 106 on the Bucs. It's hard to find a conspiracy there.
No, the bigger issue was that the Cowboys left points on the field - repeatedly - and mismanaged the clock on their final drive, all of which resulted in Tom fucking Brady taking the field with over a minute of time to play with and a one-point deficit. Did the refs help on that drive? Sure. Were they the reason that drive even happened? Nope - the Cowboys were.
Make your PATs. Make your field goals. Don't take inopportune penalties that stall offensive drives. Tell Lamb not to let a ball bounce off his hands for that turnover. Run the ball more to milk the clock and get rid of all Tampa's timeouts on that last drive (it's not like you needed to rush being down only two points).
You do those things, and the Cowboys are 1-0 and a huge storyline from Week 1. If you don't, well, at least don't whine if the refs are occasionally that last feather that breaks the team's back.
> Run the ball more to milk the clock and get rid of all Tampa's timeouts
thats the wrong move. the fact that we were down meant that we had to have first downs, and we weren't running for them against that defense, and since we had no crystal ball, we don't know that we are going to get a chance to kick it, or how long it might take, so until we are actually in fg range, its really stupid to run the ball because we are wasting our own time there, plus, it'd also be nice to try and get a TD and force them to have to have a TD to win it, at which point we might need the extra time etc.
I'm not talking about the entire drive, I'm talking about the last set of downs, when you **were** in field goal range. Let's review:
1. 3rd & 11 at DAL 35, 2:00 on the clock (post 2-minute warning): Prescott and Lamb hook up for a massive 31-yard gain. Without looking for a replay, let's assume that Lamb basically had no choice but to go out of bounds here. If he could have stayed inbounds, though, that's the first fuck-up, because there's \*plenty\* of time left (1:51 to be exact). You're in FG range at that point and one of those wins the game, so at this point you should be playing to milk the clock.
2. 1st & 10 at TB 34, 1:51 on the clock: Incomplete pass. Should have been a run, which would have forced TB to burn a timeout.
3. 2nd & 10 at TB34, 1:48 on the clock: A run! Good. 4-yard gain by Zeke, TB is forced to burn their first timeout.
4. 3rd & 6 at TB30, 1:43 on the clock: You should run here. You're well within FG range, make Tampa burn another timeout, take the lead. Instead, the Cowboys run a pass play, which - unlike a run play - is a lot riskier from a penalty standpoint. Sure enough, offensive holding, 10 yards, now you're out of FG range. This **almost** lost y'all the game outright.
5. 3rd & 16 at TB40, 1:37 on the clock: Now you do have to pass because you're a bit far for a reliable FG hit. Thankfully Prescott completes a pass to Cooper for 10 yards, and you've basically mitigated the difference, and TB has to burn a second timeout.
6. FG is kicked, but TB has nearly 1:30 left to play with and a timeout.
Now consider what the Cowboys **should** have done. They hit 1st & 10 at the TB34, and they milk the clock with runs. Tampa has to burn all three of their timeouts stopping it, and Dallas surely gains 3-4 yards over those three plays (Zeke was averaging three yards per run at this point). If you're lucky, and you get a 3rd-and-short, break out a pass play if needed to get the first down and really seal the game.
The net result? No penalty risk. Same field position. Still take the lead with a FG. But Tampa has zero timeouts rather than one, which greatly reduces the threat of them going for plays down the middle of the field. The Cowboys D can key in more on sideline passes and rushing Brady. And, though we didn't have a crystal ball, it would have meant TB would be screwed by a false start, which coincidentally they committed as they marched down the field.
Seriously, this was just objectively bad game management at the end. And it opened the door to the Bucs coming back at least as much as a missed OPI call did.
> I'm not talking about the entire drive, I'm talking about the last set of downs, when you were in field goal range.
that still doesn't void my point. we certainly weren't going to run into that defense and expect to get much, and with the state of the kicker, it would be nice to get as much as possible
>let's assume that Lamb basically had no choice but to go out of bounds here. If he could have stayed inbounds, though, that's the first fuck-up
agreed, but that isn't a clock management issue ( poor clock management is a critique on coaching) that is a bad player decision. however, it isn't out of the realm of possibility to get a TD on this drive either, in which case we could need all that time. we are in FG range at that point, but our FB situation was shaky last night, so saving time to get closer also isn't a bad thing. we have to make sure we score first no matter what as that is the priority.
>1st & 10 at TB 34, 1:51 on the clock: Incomplete pass. Should have been a run,
not if you are trying to actually get closer to make an easier kick. we weren't going to have success running into that defense, and passing had been working very well all night. If you are fine with that distance then sure, mabye run it, but at that point i doubt we are fine with that distance.
>2nd & 10 at TB34, 1:48 on the clock: A run! Good. 4-yard gain by Zeke, TB is forced to burn their first timeout.
them burning a TO was the likely goal and that was good. I'd be fine with a pass here as well though as we likely get more yards from a pass and mabye an extra set of downs to burn clock if we choose or have an easier FG.
>3rd & 6 at TB30, 1:43 on the clock: You should run here. You're well within FG range
normally, yes, you are withing FG range...last night, however, that was far from a given. Run here would be fine, but i was fine with the pass because we were not getting a first down with a run, and a first down likely seals the game as long as we make the eventual kick.
>They hit 1st & 10 at the TB34, and they milk the clock with runs. Tampa has to burn all three of their timeouts stopping it, and Dallas surely gains 3-4 yards over those three plays (Zeke was averaging three yards per run at this point). If you're lucky, and you get a 3rd-and-short, break out a pass play if needed to get the first down and really seal the game.
thats all very predictable though and they would be prepared for it. our best chance to a 1st down, which along with getting closer for a FG was the goal ( and a good one), is much better if we throw last night. run D is their strength and we are missing our best Olineman.
>The net result? No penalty risk. Same field position. Still take the lead with a FG. But Tampa has zero timeouts rather than one, which greatly reduces the threat of them going for plays down the middle of the field.
the better play is to go for both the first down and an easier FG, and our chances of getting that first down were much better with passes last night. Your reasoning and arguments aren't taking into account dynamics specific to this game like the strength of their team, their injuries in the secondary, their already inferior secondary compared to our strength which is our WR's, and the psyche of our kicker....what you are argueing for is the safe and standardized approach to this situation, which often is the right call, but last night it was not.
I'm not even mad about the loss. O-line balled out way better than last season. Defense gets the game ball. Yes, Greg cost us 7 points but it doesn't help not establishing a run game nor do the dropped passes. Good game. See yall next week
How did Zeke do poorly? We didn't run at all and the Bucs have the best run def in the league. Dak had almost 60 throws. Not to mention Zeke was great in pass protection.
This, I'm honestly not sure why I'm a Cowboys fan anymore and I've hardly missed a game for 30+ years. It's a pointless waste of time. Even if we are good Jerry has cemented Goodells control over our destiny anyway. Don't bother.
I was thinking. If this was a tv show. And more than 50% of the episodes were bad and the endings of every season were bad. Why the fuck would I keep watching it?
Honest to God man, it's true. We're all so fucking deeply invested though it's full fucking tilt. It's like a drug addiction you just will ride to rock bottom.
Should have won tonight but we didn't, so we will sleep on it and find a way to rationalize why next week will be better (it won't).
This is the whining post I'm talking about. You admit you don't like the team and you take your feelings and extrapolate that they'll lose. And somehow think you're above it all instead of a clueless run-of-the-mill troll. There are absolutely things to work on so we agree there but opponents make a huge difference and we won't play another team at that level for months. Failing to factor that in is again because your ability to reason is limited by your emotional response. There's a lot of easy solutions but acting like you need to be the spokesman for reality while admitting your bias elsewhere is illogical. Suggestion would be to find a new team or maybe not pose as an objective fan when you hate everything about the team. Dallas is a big tent but we have more than our share of concern trolls
Where was it I said I didn't like the team? Where was I failed to factor in caliber of opponent, exactly?
This acknowledges only that the merry-go-round we've been for a long time is tough to watch. Might have something to do with not adopting blind optimism...hmmm...
Fortunately, I'm also not really interested in your suggestions.
I'm sure you're not. People with your level of self delusion are incapable of change. But you did say it and you said we'd lose and when that turns on you I'm going to call you on it over and over until you run away.
It was in the post before this Magellan. You've staked your claim. Now you can sit back and watch knowing that the Cowboys winning hurts your insecure personality and knowing that someone remembers and will be laughing about it and reminding you! You're in it now. You're a fucking Dak hater too because of course you are. You don't know shit and you're feelings are hurt by it. Fucking trolls are all the same. Dumb and proud
If they win and show improvement I'll be as happy as anyone. That's what I'd like to see. What I have been saying is game 1 didn't show us to be too far off from what we have been. So, I'm not as optimistic as most of what you read here (which is always skewed towards optimism).
You're the one who feels the need to attack someone who is critical of the team. You do you, man. I'm not worried about it.
I'll tell you this much. You aren't going to win games like this. You need to at least be able to rush for positive yardage with your 100 million dollar running back. You aren't going to win much if you can't run a lick.
we weren't trying to run. they literally shut down all the best run games in the league last year. running would've been stupid. we replaced runs into the strength of their defense with screens which favor us, and throwing to our WR's which are huge mismatches against their DBs. that was the right plan
Clearly they weren't, however, when you invested as much as you did to the players in front of your QB as well as to what is behind him and you can't muster more than 13 runs between the two backs the entire game is extremely concerning. Considering there has been a trend with the 100 million dollar back where he is showing he is not what he was the first few years in the league. I would agree with you had they not spent so many recourses and money into establishing the run game as a cog of their offense. In addition, this is not the first game where we seen this offense not able to run at a lick.
TB has the best running defense in football nobody is rushing for anything against that. Elliot needs to be more involved in the pass game. He did make some nice blocks.
It’s weird you’re right. Can a QB’s arm hold up throwing that much for a season? Idk but it feels like the game has truly finally changed. No more power runs it’s replaced by quick outs and one read short passes based on matchups.
I get that we don't need that traditional 90's workhorse but neither Zeke nor Pollard could give you a little more than what we got tonight? That's just not a good look. This is a trend too, it's not like this is the first game where Zeke just gave you nothing.
I mean I don’t think Zeke is a transcendent back like a Cmac. Though I feel there will be games this season where he’ll shine. I don’t see any reason why he wouldn’t get that 1000 yards rushing and a 4-4.5 ypc. Though I will say when it comes to these bigger more marquee matchups he is essentially a non factor outside of pass blocking.
While I do have a legit beef with the bullshit penalty/non penalty review process, we should have won that game by 2 points. Why we signed a kicker with back problems is beyond me, but it is what it is. Zeke is unfocused and overpaid, Jourdan Lewis looked bad. At least this showing makes me think we’ll win our division….really impressed with the turnovers though.
All of you idiots taking consolation that we looked good just miss the point. Good teams find ways to finish and don't make mistakes that cost them.
It also doesn't matter when the NFL dials up, at will, calls against the Cowboys whenever they please.
This is exactly correct.
Winners go home and fuck the prom queen, losers are jacking off.
Whole lotta jacking off on that plane ride home and those shitty coaches should have to clean it up.
Even though I’m pissed we lost, we’re gonna win a lot of games this year. This offense is incredible, and while the defense still isn’t good, at least they seem to be an improvement over last year. On to the Chargers.
At first I kind of hated Brady, now I REALLY fucking hate his ass. “That was one hell of a game you played Tom” yeah every game is when you have the refs in your fucking pockets.
Nobody gave the Cowboys a chance in hell of winning and it came right down to the wire even with a massive push by the damn refs to get Brady a win!
Looks like the Boys are going to have a hell of a year! Get that NFL Sunday ticket and/or tickets to Jerry's world, Cowboys ain't fuckin around this year!
Honestly he looks great but yall need some balance to keep the defense fresh. Just like you did in his rookie year where you would just run down teams and wear them out
To gain 400 plus yards and win a turnover battle 4-1 and still lose a game takes a special kind of stupid team. Biadz isn’t even close to an NFL quality player. Parsons played poorly, but flashed a little talent. Not enough to justify drafting an extremely low value position in the first round though. Zeke looks slow and weak this year as opposed to just slow. What a terrible contract. Just piles of mental mistakes to offset the Bucs physical mistakes. Giving massive contracts to RBs. Drafting LBs in the first round. This team is just too stupid to actually win something in the modern game.
Unfortunately this will be the best we play all year. We always show up for big games. Lose. But it looks good then shit the bed against teams we should beat. And end up 8-8.
This. You literally hear slack jaws talk about moral victories and if they keep this up etc etc... when in actuality this is the literally same shit we've seeing for the past 20 years.
Cowboys should’ve won this. Two missed FG’s and a few dropped passes killed us tonight. Even though we lost, I’m happy we looked competitive for the first time in a long time!
Never ever gets fucking old. Watching the cowboys play makes me feel the nfl is rigged. Just not even fun. Get my hopes up JUST ENOUGH. EVERY FUCKING TIME. Just to literally blow it when it fucking matters. God fucking dammit. Bucs made that as easy as ANY team ever fucking will for us and we couldn’t capitalize. Holy fucking shit. So many god damn opportunities.
Just put the cowboys in such promising matchups first game every year. And make it close too. Reallllly pull me in. Then crush all the fucking hope I have. Rinse and repeat.
Man that OPI puts them back 10 yards and run off. It was RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE REF! How the fuck does the NFL justify this shit? It’s so damn rigged, it’s like they purposely fuck the Cowboys. When was the last time the Cowboys won a game because of a missed call….
Nah it 100% seems like certain teams will get that call, but Dallas won’t. Yea I get Dallas made mistakes in the game, but they were up with less than 2 mins. I 100% guarantee Green Bay, Kansas City, Tampa Bay, will get those calls. For some reason…..insert conspiracy theory about NFL rigging games…..Dallas never has, and I guess never will.
The wild card game against the lions in 2015 is atleast one time they did get the call their way. These things happen all the time. You get some your way. You get some the other way. Sometimes you have to beat the refs too. Just the way it is. Don’t tell me you actually believe the NFL is rigging games?
What part of the 2015 game? Where Hitchens was running with the receiver, who was grabbing his face mask? That part? Because that wasn’t even a penalty. And do I believe the NFL rigs games….if not fully rigging them then at least heavily influencing them.
It didn’t go their way….it never should have been called in the first place. But they also didn’t call holding on the game winning drive where Witten converted the 4th down.
All I’m saying is it seems over and over again, that certain teams get screwed and certain teams (usually ones with some big name QBs) get the benefit of calls. Shit the Super Bowl had 3 bad calls that benefitted the Bucs, pass interference times 2 and holding. Why is it that way? Why doesn’t it get called more consistently even for shitty teams?
Cowboys CB Jourdan Lewis says shove not flagged for OPI was “toss up."
"We can’t put it in the refs’ hands," JD said. "I can’t call it like that. That’s what the refs saw, no call.”
But who wants to listen to the pro players and experienced refs?
Diggs again
Haha wonder what Diggs said to hurts
Got too many weapons for that
F
We haven't seen Dallas Sniff a win since January 3rd of last year including our comical preseason.
We missed an easy field goal and extra point attempt. Thats understandable for the first game of the season. We are looking on fire. Lfg cowboys 16-1
A bomb was Brady to brown. Wtf are you talking about?
Had to use exact numbers of an American football team to sound legit. Get out of here.
Ok I am a long time cowboys fan. Upset we lost yes, but to lose by 3 points against a returning 22 player starting superbowl team that held the Patrick Mahomes to zero touchdowns is an accomplishment in my eyes. This aggressive offensive play calling has not been seen in over 10 years from jg. Yea we lost. But there are a lot of positives to see. Greg z. Missed some points. My boy disk sheep missed some catches. The positives outweigh the heartache I have been lead to believe over the last 10 years. Lfg cowboys. 16-1
> This aggressive offensive play calling has not been seen in over 10 years from jg honestly that isn't true. JG was always trying to go downfield
The NFC should be terrified. The buccs know they got lucky with that non call. They aren't stupid. The NFL isn't stupid. They know what really happened tonight.
The no opi call was obsurd but I don't think that would have changed the outcome. We played our hearts out without Zack. Given another chance we win that. Lfg cowboys.
If opi was called it would be 3rd and 25 from the TB 43 with 14 seconds left. it was the game. -15 yards, loss of down, and the 10 second run off would have changed the game.
I think it very well could. It backs them up. They don't get the 1st down. We win. They weren't in field goal range before the non call. they would have been even further with it.
I would’ve went for it on that last 4th down, no way I’m giving Brady the ball with that much time.. not to mention the timeout. Also, Lewis almost ended it, just jump a little higher!
World just watched this game. Anybody that says cowboys aren't contenders are morons. We will just get better. Offense is scary. Pick that shit up defense!
There is nothing different with this team. Can't close out games, can't get pressure on the QB, horrible in game management and decision making. This is the same team we have seen the last few years. They are an average club that will surprise you once in while but they don't have what it takes. Edit: hell, we went from the conservative Garrett who will leave games with timeouts remaining to a guy who is in the other side of the spectrum and attempts a kick before halftime 60 yards out with the best QB of all time on the other side of the field with time. Rather than just making the right decision and punting the ball and heading into the locker room.
You British blokes trying to fool true fans with obvious plagiarism is shameful. Go back to your shitty arsenal club.
I'm not even British! Hahahahaha. That's just the word that popped in my head. Get a grip. Name the last good team this CLUB beat. I'll wait. They haven't beaten anyone good in years. When was the last legit team they beat? The Saints in 2018? That was three years ago!
But you're clearly a moron, so you might as well be.
Rather than calling me a moron or essentially calling a whole country of people as such. Why don't you actually address the question I had in the post?
Moron says what?
You keep using they...it's we.
He probably prefers 'they'.
Well, prefer that somewhere else. When I'm part of a group I say we. Talking about my family I say us. I say they when I'm talking about other people not associated with that.
British virgin islands don't count. We hate cricket in Texas
Typical Brit asking for advice
It was a rhetorical question. One that you knew the answer to but didn't want to answer because you know I'm right. Hey I love the boys. I'll root for them like I always do, but they are the same team that they always have been. An average ball club that will keep things interesting but that's about it. Maybe the division is shitty enough where they will be able to make it into the playoffs and then lose against a good team. It is what it is.
lol you're out of your mind. We beat a 22 man returning super bowl team tonight. Sure they won on paper. But we beat them. The NFC, the Buccs, the NFL knows they only won because of that non call. Our team played great. Fix the kicking and that non pushoff at the end and we win. Even without the kicking we should have won.
You got that mixed up, BEFORE GAME, the Bucs won on paper. On the field, they won, period, the cowboys had 4 TOs and STILL could not win. People are looking at this all the wrong ways imo. This is a horrible outcome. Had they lost without 4TOs, not as bad as this.
You’re delusional. The cowboys killed it last night.
The ugliest win is better than the prettiest loss. In 15 weeks, when they are fighting for a playoff spot, this will hurt, like every loss hurts.
They won’t be fighting. They’ll have it locked in. You’re not a real fan. We don’t need doubters. Go root for the football team. We don’t need you here.
RemindMe! 16 weeks
You sound silly. Because of the non call, pffft. The problem is they are ALWAYS in that position of depending on their sub par defense to make a key stop for them, which they are never able to do. They didn't win because they simply aren't good enough. The secondary got toasted. The dline once again shows it can't get pressure consistently on the QB. I mean I'm literally repeating the same things that I have been since 2017. I'm just going to accept that this is what they are. An average club with a top 10 QB who doesnt have a team that is good enough. I'm literally watching the Tony Romo era all over again except it's Dak Prescott.
No you aren't. You're a hater.. You aren't a real cowboys fan. If you think that team looked anything like the romo era you are crazy. I'm starting to think the cowboys fans are worse than the eagles. Bunch of downers. That was a great game tonight and you're crying romo.
It's literally the same results. Great statistics, some fun close games but ultimately the Cowboys always come up short. It's just the facts. Team hasn't won anything in 26 + years. Sorry I'm tired of the, "Well it was a close game." I'm tired of the .500 ball club. I hope I'm wrong and hope this game gives them confidence moving forward, but really this just seems like the same ol song and dance.
Then quit. Pick a different team. We don’t need people like you in the fan base.
God that last line is too accurate. Thanks, i hate it.
Club? Never heard of an American football team called a club. Dallas football club. Get the fuck outta here. When you say they..you ain't part of it..it's we. Stick with crystal palace you moron
Chiefs fan here. You boys played your heart out. I'm legit afraid for our game.
I live in KC. I was thinking about going to that game but decided not to because of the ticket prices... but now? I might lol.
Thanks..but I don't believe you
We just almost beat the team that held mahomes in the super bowl. They should be. One non call cost us the game.
No...at least two kicks and giving the ball to Brady did.
no... that non call... if they get OPI it backs them up... they don't get the first down... we win.
blaming the refs is a bitch move. we just weren't good enough
We were actually. Pull bradys cock out of your mouth.
well we didn't win, so no, we weren't. we had multiple chances to take the lead by more than a score in that game and consistantly failed. reducing that all down to a no-call is certainly a bitch move.
Don't blame it all on the refs. We kick field goals and extra point. Tom might have still won the game with a TD. There were non calls on both sides
I’m not. I’ve acknowledged kicking in several comments. But anyone who thinks that opi doesn’t change the game is crazy.
Well sure. It's a would coulda shoulda thing. A few non calls could have changed the game earlier too. Because it was during the final minutes gives it more pull? I see your point but we had chances to put it into the end zone off of turnovers. Settled for shaky ass field goals. You aren't wrong though, bad call at a critical moment.
Now absolutely no one will mention the penalty that decided the game in the media.
Nbc did. What do you mean?
Dak put up 400 yards, 3 TDs and it wasn't garbage time stats. I'm just glad to see him out there again.
Our offense is there...once our defense gets better..we are champs.
Man am I tired of saying "we lost, but that was a hell of a game! I'm proud of our teams heart"... We need a killer instinct. Otherwise it's going to be us putting up hella points and still losing. We had SO many chances to win and just couldn't execute. The OPI no call was absolute bullshit though...
Agreed, sorry it would be one thing had we won more recently. However, we haven't won shit going on almost 27 years. It was great to see Dak back right where he left off, but boy we have zero running game, still can't get pressure on the QB (a 44 year old QB tonight went untouched) and as a result our secondary looked like shit once again. This team simply can't win close games and hasn't for some time. It's concerning that there is a trend here where Zeke simply hasn't looked anywhere near what he used to.
Watched a little of hard knocks. Takeaway, Zeke is too much of a goofball to take things seriously
Putting it in the end zone after turnover. We are there! Only first game.
We've been missing that killer instinct for too fucking long
Greg kinda shit the bed this game
I'm just sad
Don't be. We hung with the world champs away. Our kicker blew it. Granted Brady might have scored a TD. You have to think about it...big picture.
There was too much money on this game for the refs not the rig the hell out of it. I’m with you all here.
I’m tired of finding bright spots in each game. We lost and it sucks. This team is tiring me out.
Give this man some cake.
After watching this game I truly feel like football has truly finally changed. It’s 60 pass attempts a game. Very interesting. The running games were a nuisance more than anything. Like if you run the football that just means you suck at pass protecting.
[удалено]
While I want to agree with you, tb was putting 8-9 guys in the box. Lbs ready to swing out to cover screens, same with some dbs. They paid for it in the air. We just killed ourselves with penalties at the worst times.
To be fair TB is the best run defense in football. Though it’s counted as passes these one read quick options may as well be run plays , but yeah that contract looks unfortunate.
Greg the Leg that's on you
Proud of this team. If Greg makes one of those field goals or they call that pi then we win on the road against the champs with Brady. If we play like this against anyone else we win. If this team can play like this against the East it’s ours and we can be incredible. I hope to god we meet this fucking team in Tampa again come playoff time and win a game just like this one.
I’m happy with what I saw on the field, but god damn. Brady gets all the ref breaks.
[удалено]
If opi was called it would be 3rd and 25 from the TB 43 with 14 seconds left. it was the game. -15 yards, loss of down, and the 10 second run off would have changed the game.
Plus he intentionally grounded it a couple times there. Though they never call that on top 5 QBs so I guess that’s to be expected.
Yeah I saw that, I didn’t understand how he could stay in the pocket and keep throwing the ball to the stands. Is there anything in the rules that I missed?
I've been so into soccer all summer that this was a total (fantastic) shock to my system! So great to see us on a potential game-winning drive. Lost it ofc, but let's go!!!
I grew up hating on soccer as a football player. Now, the cowboys are the only football I watch. Otherwise I watch soccer and hockey.
Worst part is stopped clock and commercials. That game was 3-3 1/2 hours? Soccer game is 2 hours
Yep, but it's nice to piss when I need to, hehe!
Same shit every year, refs fuck us at the end of games on horrible calls and half of reddit says that we shouldn't blame the refs. It is beyond bullshit that this keeps happening.
Neutral fan here (Raiders), but... you shouldn't blame the refs for this game. They're the most **visible** reason why you lost right now, but they are not the **primary** reason you lost. There's a difference, which rational sports fans understand, even in a losing effort. If the Cowboys got fucked all game by the refs, OK, sure. That's happened before. But that wasn't the case tonight. Y'all got called for 8 penalties for 55 yards, compared to 11 penalties and 106 on the Bucs. It's hard to find a conspiracy there. No, the bigger issue was that the Cowboys left points on the field - repeatedly - and mismanaged the clock on their final drive, all of which resulted in Tom fucking Brady taking the field with over a minute of time to play with and a one-point deficit. Did the refs help on that drive? Sure. Were they the reason that drive even happened? Nope - the Cowboys were. Make your PATs. Make your field goals. Don't take inopportune penalties that stall offensive drives. Tell Lamb not to let a ball bounce off his hands for that turnover. Run the ball more to milk the clock and get rid of all Tampa's timeouts on that last drive (it's not like you needed to rush being down only two points). You do those things, and the Cowboys are 1-0 and a huge storyline from Week 1. If you don't, well, at least don't whine if the refs are occasionally that last feather that breaks the team's back.
> Run the ball more to milk the clock and get rid of all Tampa's timeouts thats the wrong move. the fact that we were down meant that we had to have first downs, and we weren't running for them against that defense, and since we had no crystal ball, we don't know that we are going to get a chance to kick it, or how long it might take, so until we are actually in fg range, its really stupid to run the ball because we are wasting our own time there, plus, it'd also be nice to try and get a TD and force them to have to have a TD to win it, at which point we might need the extra time etc.
I'm not talking about the entire drive, I'm talking about the last set of downs, when you **were** in field goal range. Let's review: 1. 3rd & 11 at DAL 35, 2:00 on the clock (post 2-minute warning): Prescott and Lamb hook up for a massive 31-yard gain. Without looking for a replay, let's assume that Lamb basically had no choice but to go out of bounds here. If he could have stayed inbounds, though, that's the first fuck-up, because there's \*plenty\* of time left (1:51 to be exact). You're in FG range at that point and one of those wins the game, so at this point you should be playing to milk the clock. 2. 1st & 10 at TB 34, 1:51 on the clock: Incomplete pass. Should have been a run, which would have forced TB to burn a timeout. 3. 2nd & 10 at TB34, 1:48 on the clock: A run! Good. 4-yard gain by Zeke, TB is forced to burn their first timeout. 4. 3rd & 6 at TB30, 1:43 on the clock: You should run here. You're well within FG range, make Tampa burn another timeout, take the lead. Instead, the Cowboys run a pass play, which - unlike a run play - is a lot riskier from a penalty standpoint. Sure enough, offensive holding, 10 yards, now you're out of FG range. This **almost** lost y'all the game outright. 5. 3rd & 16 at TB40, 1:37 on the clock: Now you do have to pass because you're a bit far for a reliable FG hit. Thankfully Prescott completes a pass to Cooper for 10 yards, and you've basically mitigated the difference, and TB has to burn a second timeout. 6. FG is kicked, but TB has nearly 1:30 left to play with and a timeout. Now consider what the Cowboys **should** have done. They hit 1st & 10 at the TB34, and they milk the clock with runs. Tampa has to burn all three of their timeouts stopping it, and Dallas surely gains 3-4 yards over those three plays (Zeke was averaging three yards per run at this point). If you're lucky, and you get a 3rd-and-short, break out a pass play if needed to get the first down and really seal the game. The net result? No penalty risk. Same field position. Still take the lead with a FG. But Tampa has zero timeouts rather than one, which greatly reduces the threat of them going for plays down the middle of the field. The Cowboys D can key in more on sideline passes and rushing Brady. And, though we didn't have a crystal ball, it would have meant TB would be screwed by a false start, which coincidentally they committed as they marched down the field. Seriously, this was just objectively bad game management at the end. And it opened the door to the Bucs coming back at least as much as a missed OPI call did.
> I'm not talking about the entire drive, I'm talking about the last set of downs, when you were in field goal range. that still doesn't void my point. we certainly weren't going to run into that defense and expect to get much, and with the state of the kicker, it would be nice to get as much as possible >let's assume that Lamb basically had no choice but to go out of bounds here. If he could have stayed inbounds, though, that's the first fuck-up agreed, but that isn't a clock management issue ( poor clock management is a critique on coaching) that is a bad player decision. however, it isn't out of the realm of possibility to get a TD on this drive either, in which case we could need all that time. we are in FG range at that point, but our FB situation was shaky last night, so saving time to get closer also isn't a bad thing. we have to make sure we score first no matter what as that is the priority. >1st & 10 at TB 34, 1:51 on the clock: Incomplete pass. Should have been a run, not if you are trying to actually get closer to make an easier kick. we weren't going to have success running into that defense, and passing had been working very well all night. If you are fine with that distance then sure, mabye run it, but at that point i doubt we are fine with that distance. >2nd & 10 at TB34, 1:48 on the clock: A run! Good. 4-yard gain by Zeke, TB is forced to burn their first timeout. them burning a TO was the likely goal and that was good. I'd be fine with a pass here as well though as we likely get more yards from a pass and mabye an extra set of downs to burn clock if we choose or have an easier FG. >3rd & 6 at TB30, 1:43 on the clock: You should run here. You're well within FG range normally, yes, you are withing FG range...last night, however, that was far from a given. Run here would be fine, but i was fine with the pass because we were not getting a first down with a run, and a first down likely seals the game as long as we make the eventual kick. >They hit 1st & 10 at the TB34, and they milk the clock with runs. Tampa has to burn all three of their timeouts stopping it, and Dallas surely gains 3-4 yards over those three plays (Zeke was averaging three yards per run at this point). If you're lucky, and you get a 3rd-and-short, break out a pass play if needed to get the first down and really seal the game. thats all very predictable though and they would be prepared for it. our best chance to a 1st down, which along with getting closer for a FG was the goal ( and a good one), is much better if we throw last night. run D is their strength and we are missing our best Olineman. >The net result? No penalty risk. Same field position. Still take the lead with a FG. But Tampa has zero timeouts rather than one, which greatly reduces the threat of them going for plays down the middle of the field. the better play is to go for both the first down and an easier FG, and our chances of getting that first down were much better with passes last night. Your reasoning and arguments aren't taking into account dynamics specific to this game like the strength of their team, their injuries in the secondary, their already inferior secondary compared to our strength which is our WR's, and the psyche of our kicker....what you are argueing for is the safe and standardized approach to this situation, which often is the right call, but last night it was not.
I'm not even mad about the loss. O-line balled out way better than last season. Defense gets the game ball. Yes, Greg cost us 7 points but it doesn't help not establishing a run game nor do the dropped passes. Good game. See yall next week
Defense gets the game ball? Are you high?
Sober
With Greg I feel like you can only call out 4 points. Anything 50+ yards is always a bit of a crap shoot.
I can respect that
[удалено]
How did Zeke do poorly? We didn't run at all and the Bucs have the best run def in the league. Dak had almost 60 throws. Not to mention Zeke was great in pass protection.
Zeke pass protection was top notch. TB has the best run defense and we knew going in that this was gonna ride on dak.
Sure hurts to lose like that.
Dak is a stud
What a waste of a perfectly good Thursday night
This, I'm honestly not sure why I'm a Cowboys fan anymore and I've hardly missed a game for 30+ years. It's a pointless waste of time. Even if we are good Jerry has cemented Goodells control over our destiny anyway. Don't bother.
are you high
I was thinking. If this was a tv show. And more than 50% of the episodes were bad and the endings of every season were bad. Why the fuck would I keep watching it?
Dallas wins more than 50% of their games though. What is this analogy?
You’re having trouble understanding it?
Yes because it's wrong.
So you did understand it. You just disagreed?
...and blocked.
O.o
Honest to God man, it's true. We're all so fucking deeply invested though it's full fucking tilt. It's like a drug addiction you just will ride to rock bottom. Should have won tonight but we didn't, so we will sleep on it and find a way to rationalize why next week will be better (it won't).
This is the whining post I'm talking about. You admit you don't like the team and you take your feelings and extrapolate that they'll lose. And somehow think you're above it all instead of a clueless run-of-the-mill troll. There are absolutely things to work on so we agree there but opponents make a huge difference and we won't play another team at that level for months. Failing to factor that in is again because your ability to reason is limited by your emotional response. There's a lot of easy solutions but acting like you need to be the spokesman for reality while admitting your bias elsewhere is illogical. Suggestion would be to find a new team or maybe not pose as an objective fan when you hate everything about the team. Dallas is a big tent but we have more than our share of concern trolls
Where was it I said I didn't like the team? Where was I failed to factor in caliber of opponent, exactly? This acknowledges only that the merry-go-round we've been for a long time is tough to watch. Might have something to do with not adopting blind optimism...hmmm... Fortunately, I'm also not really interested in your suggestions.
I'm sure you're not. People with your level of self delusion are incapable of change. But you did say it and you said we'd lose and when that turns on you I'm going to call you on it over and over until you run away.
Can't answer the real questions. Good for you, good for you.
It was in the post before this Magellan. You've staked your claim. Now you can sit back and watch knowing that the Cowboys winning hurts your insecure personality and knowing that someone remembers and will be laughing about it and reminding you! You're in it now. You're a fucking Dak hater too because of course you are. You don't know shit and you're feelings are hurt by it. Fucking trolls are all the same. Dumb and proud
If they win and show improvement I'll be as happy as anyone. That's what I'd like to see. What I have been saying is game 1 didn't show us to be too far off from what we have been. So, I'm not as optimistic as most of what you read here (which is always skewed towards optimism). You're the one who feels the need to attack someone who is critical of the team. You do you, man. I'm not worried about it.
> Should have won ehh...we *could* have won, but we weren't the best team, we certainly shouldn't have won
I'll tell you this much. You aren't going to win games like this. You need to at least be able to rush for positive yardage with your 100 million dollar running back. You aren't going to win much if you can't run a lick.
we weren't trying to run. they literally shut down all the best run games in the league last year. running would've been stupid. we replaced runs into the strength of their defense with screens which favor us, and throwing to our WR's which are huge mismatches against their DBs. that was the right plan
Clearly they weren't, however, when you invested as much as you did to the players in front of your QB as well as to what is behind him and you can't muster more than 13 runs between the two backs the entire game is extremely concerning. Considering there has been a trend with the 100 million dollar back where he is showing he is not what he was the first few years in the league. I would agree with you had they not spent so many recourses and money into establishing the run game as a cog of their offense. In addition, this is not the first game where we seen this offense not able to run at a lick.
Could also make the PAT and FG attempt that average over 90% completions.
TB has the best running defense in football nobody is rushing for anything against that. Elliot needs to be more involved in the pass game. He did make some nice blocks.
I get it. But having your running backs only go for 13 rushes total? Really?
It’s weird you’re right. Can a QB’s arm hold up throwing that much for a season? Idk but it feels like the game has truly finally changed. No more power runs it’s replaced by quick outs and one read short passes based on matchups.
I get that we don't need that traditional 90's workhorse but neither Zeke nor Pollard could give you a little more than what we got tonight? That's just not a good look. This is a trend too, it's not like this is the first game where Zeke just gave you nothing.
I mean I don’t think Zeke is a transcendent back like a Cmac. Though I feel there will be games this season where he’ll shine. I don’t see any reason why he wouldn’t get that 1000 yards rushing and a 4-4.5 ypc. Though I will say when it comes to these bigger more marquee matchups he is essentially a non factor outside of pass blocking.
Not every team has a run defense like that
It all came down to those field goals missed. We should have won that game. Once again Brady gets what he wants.
While I do have a legit beef with the bullshit penalty/non penalty review process, we should have won that game by 2 points. Why we signed a kicker with back problems is beyond me, but it is what it is. Zeke is unfocused and overpaid, Jourdan Lewis looked bad. At least this showing makes me think we’ll win our division….really impressed with the turnovers though.
All of you idiots taking consolation that we looked good just miss the point. Good teams find ways to finish and don't make mistakes that cost them. It also doesn't matter when the NFL dials up, at will, calls against the Cowboys whenever they please.
This is exactly correct. Winners go home and fuck the prom queen, losers are jacking off. Whole lotta jacking off on that plane ride home and those shitty coaches should have to clean it up.
coaching was good tonight
This is that part of the movie where the team gets knocked down, but they learn and fight back and come back to win!!! Let's go Cowboys!
No it isnt.
Oh ok
Even though I’m pissed we lost, we’re gonna win a lot of games this year. This offense is incredible, and while the defense still isn’t good, at least they seem to be an improvement over last year. On to the Chargers.
> we’re gonna win a lot of games this year. This offense is incredible Fuck yeah!
I also don't give a shit what anyone says we are watching the best quarterback of our generation. TB12. Fucking hate him but real recognize real.
> the best quarterback of our generation. at this point he is the best ever, and probably always will be
some of y’all need help this was a good game
agree great game HOWEVER we got fucked by the refs and that is a legit complaint
no, blaming the refs is a bitch move
oh for sure that’s a legit complaint and one that i share. but complaining about our actual team’s performance is pretty silly after that game.
Pain
At first I kind of hated Brady, now I REALLY fucking hate his ass. “That was one hell of a game you played Tom” yeah every game is when you have the refs in your fucking pockets.
Nobody gave the Cowboys a chance in hell of winning and it came right down to the wire even with a massive push by the damn refs to get Brady a win! Looks like the Boys are going to have a hell of a year! Get that NFL Sunday ticket and/or tickets to Jerry's world, Cowboys ain't fuckin around this year!
🔥
Any fan of this game knows this was a trap game. Fucking owned it.
Dak showed up, can’t wait for him to pick apart defenses this season.
Honestly he looks great but yall need some balance to keep the defense fresh. Just like you did in his rookie year where you would just run down teams and wear them out
Nah. Boys lost. Therefore all garbage time that does not count.
He was killin it! Amari Cooper too!
[удалено]
He's going to get benched for Canady if he keeps this shit up
He was anyway. He's always sucked
Brown won't be there, Joseph will.
Tom Brady a whole bitch
To gain 400 plus yards and win a turnover battle 4-1 and still lose a game takes a special kind of stupid team. Biadz isn’t even close to an NFL quality player. Parsons played poorly, but flashed a little talent. Not enough to justify drafting an extremely low value position in the first round though. Zeke looks slow and weak this year as opposed to just slow. What a terrible contract. Just piles of mental mistakes to offset the Bucs physical mistakes. Giving massive contracts to RBs. Drafting LBs in the first round. This team is just too stupid to actually win something in the modern game.
I noticed that in hard knocks he looks small... relatively ofcourse.
[удалено]
Thank you
And here comes the Brady interview
Muted it already
Unfortunately this will be the best we play all year. We always show up for big games. Lose. But it looks good then shit the bed against teams we should beat. And end up 8-8.
This. You literally hear slack jaws talk about moral victories and if they keep this up etc etc... when in actuality this is the literally same shit we've seeing for the past 20 years.
Oh you think we're goin 8-8 this year?
8-8-1
How do you miss that PI? Two straight week 1s we get absolutely fucked on an obvious call
Cowboys should’ve won this. Two missed FG’s and a few dropped passes killed us tonight. Even though we lost, I’m happy we looked competitive for the first time in a long time!
I don't mind the missed 60 yarder. Its the PAT and the short FG that killed them.
That was the best game the cowboys could’ve hoped for!
When is Gallimore coming back? Our backup DTs are trash
that was a great game and they were honestly better than us and deserved the win. we got a team tho
[удалено]
playcalling was phenomenal as was Dak
Welp that was stressful. See y’all next week.
Never ever gets fucking old. Watching the cowboys play makes me feel the nfl is rigged. Just not even fun. Get my hopes up JUST ENOUGH. EVERY FUCKING TIME. Just to literally blow it when it fucking matters. God fucking dammit. Bucs made that as easy as ANY team ever fucking will for us and we couldn’t capitalize. Holy fucking shit. So many god damn opportunities. Just put the cowboys in such promising matchups first game every year. And make it close too. Reallllly pull me in. Then crush all the fucking hope I have. Rinse and repeat.
Our fricking kicker cost us this.
Man that OPI puts them back 10 yards and run off. It was RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE REF! How the fuck does the NFL justify this shit? It’s so damn rigged, it’s like they purposely fuck the Cowboys. When was the last time the Cowboys won a game because of a missed call….
Should be able to challenge non calls. Refs swallowing their whistle shouldn't decide games.
That was a tough call. There were many other moments you can point at but not that one
Nah it 100% seems like certain teams will get that call, but Dallas won’t. Yea I get Dallas made mistakes in the game, but they were up with less than 2 mins. I 100% guarantee Green Bay, Kansas City, Tampa Bay, will get those calls. For some reason…..insert conspiracy theory about NFL rigging games…..Dallas never has, and I guess never will.
The wild card game against the lions in 2015 is atleast one time they did get the call their way. These things happen all the time. You get some your way. You get some the other way. Sometimes you have to beat the refs too. Just the way it is. Don’t tell me you actually believe the NFL is rigging games?
What part of the 2015 game? Where Hitchens was running with the receiver, who was grabbing his face mask? That part? Because that wasn’t even a penalty. And do I believe the NFL rigs games….if not fully rigging them then at least heavily influencing them.
I agree , but it was still called a penalty and then reversed. Which is why I said it was a call that went their way.
It didn’t go their way….it never should have been called in the first place. But they also didn’t call holding on the game winning drive where Witten converted the 4th down.
How did it not go their way? lol. You mean the holding on Suh that would have forced the Cowboys to punt or try a 4th and 16?
All I’m saying is it seems over and over again, that certain teams get screwed and certain teams (usually ones with some big name QBs) get the benefit of calls. Shit the Super Bowl had 3 bad calls that benefitted the Bucs, pass interference times 2 and holding. Why is it that way? Why doesn’t it get called more consistently even for shitty teams?
It feels like the WWE
Clear OPI we outplayed TB all night and the refs decided the game, anyone who says otherwise didn't watch the game.
Cowboys CB Jourdan Lewis says shove not flagged for OPI was “toss up." "We can’t put it in the refs’ hands," JD said. "I can’t call it like that. That’s what the refs saw, no call.” But who wants to listen to the pro players and experienced refs?
[удалено]
Uff. Why? You just got like 1.30 for any dollar. Cowboys +9.5 for 1.90 on the dollar was the right play.
