[NFL] 2008 Season - Page 58

Seriously, our defense played pretty stout again (can't ask them to prevent ALL first downs in the 2nd half jesus,) but can Andy Reid call a fucking QB sneak? I can't find the stat with my minute of internet searching, but Mcnabb is something like 25 of 26 when it's 3rd and 1 or 4th and 1 and he QB sneaks (I remember cause he had made them all until one stop not too long ago.)

Can we fucking split out 5 wide recievers, and have mcnabb lean his ass 6 inches forward instead of a straight predictable dive play? I mean jesus shitballing christ.

Sorry, these winnable September games need to be fucking won, before we get deep into the tough part of the schedule. Shit like this comes back to haunt you later in the season, in the NFC East, one win could easily be the difference.

Yeah I didn't like that play calling.... they basically tried the same play 4 times in a row and failed 4 times in a row. They probably could've walked it in if they had changed it up a little, the Bears were committing to the run so much.

In any case they didn't, and the Bears defense earned them this victory which is amazing considering how horrible their offense was in the 2nd half.

Bringing up the bad refs again..

Hochulli called the panthers game today and threw a very questionable roughing the passer flag that negated a TD. Didn't effect the final outcome, but had we been playing a team more competent than the falcons I would have been extremely pissed.

You don't understand. The Chiefs can suck balls but beating the Broncos is one of the best feelings a fan can have.

Amen brother, I was going apeshit

I moved away from KC so getting to see the game today was a treat in itself, the lil rookies that could grew a bit today

Why is everyone talking about how bad the Broncos defense is, but no one is talking about how bad the Chargers defense is? Both are horrible but writers like to stick it to the Broncos more, maybe its because all the writers giving the Broncos hell all picked the Chargers to win 14 games this year.

Also, why the fuck would Andy Reid try to run it at the goal line in the 4th quarter against the Bears? THROW THE BALL DOWN THE FIELD ANDY!!! Line up with 3 wide receivers, spread the defense, then throw a fade, or then run it, don't use a fucking 3 TE set down there against the Bears. Christ that is annoying. (I have McNabb on my FF team so I'm Bias)

I want to add that the refs this year have been horrendous overall. They're beginning to approach NBA levels of ineptitude.

FOX Sports on MSN - NFL - Rams fire Linehan after 0-4 start

Not a shock I'm sure.

The Rams, the Raiders, the Chiefs, and the Lions will all be looking for new coaches by January.

The Cowboys will have a new head coach by the end of February also after another early play-off bounce. We just won't have to go looking for him since he's already on the coaching roster.

Garrett definitely had some questionable calls yesterday... 0 carries for felix and 8 for barber is just inexcusable.

Andy Reid was actually discussing this before, and the reason he decided against McNabb running any sneaks was because he was still sore from the chest contusion he suffered last week in their win over the Steelers.

As for the Dallas game, I gotta agree with Antoine, Felix Jones ABSENT on offense? What the fuck? Terrible decision there. Props to the 'Skins for beating their rivals.

Yeah, it's funny how people blame Wade when really he is just a figure-head. Garrett calls the offense and Wade certainly doesn't call the defensive packages. Wade is there to control personalties and keep people in shape and that he has done.

They could fire him (and probably will, he was hired on the basis of being an interim head coach anyway) and Garrett could take over and do the same thing he is doing now and nothing would change.

Moontayle · 09-29-2008, 11:03 AM

The biggest problem that the Cowboys have right now is that they primarily run a zone passing defense and that just ain't getting the job done. You saw that when they went man-to-man, they usually had the receivers locked up, allowing the pass rush to get to Campbell. It's how they got those two sacks early on. But zone defense is nothing more than a glorified prevent at times. It's the main reason our secondary has zero picks on the year despite being stacked with talent. At least, that's my take.

Also, Wade installed the defense. He lets Stewert call the defensive plays.

Oh, and TO needs to cry more. They went to him all game. I counted at least a half a dozen times they threw the ball in his direction but a Washington defender got there first. Including one series where three straight passes at him didn't hit their mark and they were forced to punt. Oh, and the dropped TD in the endzone. GG there bucko.

foddon · 09-29-2008, 11:15 AM

That was their biggest problem on offense (and I blame Garrett). They saw TO with single coverage and completely abandoned their normal offense for the "force it to TO on every play" offense. I think this really threw Romo off of his game. Either way, Romo didn't look good... he was overthrowing everybody, which hasn't been a problem up until this game. Overall, just about every player on the Cowboys looked off of their game... Washington played a good game and took advantage.
