NFL Week 8 game thread

[Eck'sSneakyCheese]

That last throw by Rush was absolutely perfect. Hit Wilson in stride.

Awful roughing the passer call on Dallas.

Awful roughing the passer call on Dallas.

These refs in the NFL are so inconsistent now. They used to be the best refs in sports.

 

[BigSoxFan]

This is a classic Cowboys meltdown

 

[patinorange]

Tough to figure out of if the refs are incompetent or if the Dallas defense is stupid. Tough call.

 

[shawnrbu]

3 personal fouls on Dallas on one drive.

 

[deconstruction]

That's ridiculous

 

[Harry Hooper]

RB had not given up on the play, but the defender is supposed to?

 

[mauf]

3 personal fouls on Dallas on one drive.

i thought all three were questionable. Maybe the 2nd one was legit (it was holding, at a minimum).

 

[luckiestman]

Only the horse collar on the olineman was legit

 

[strek1]

3 personal fouls on Dallas on one drive.

Pretty bad but at least 2 of the 3 were questionable. Are they targeting Gregory? I've seen a lot worse.

 

[OurF'ingCity]

Rooting for the Vikings here but the three penalties on the Cowboys this drive have ranged from ticky-tack to just godawful.

 

[Greg29fan]

lol league favors Dallas!

 

[Sandwich Pick]

So Gregory's hit is a penalty but that last one is not?

That had to be a make up call.

Is this parody? They were (have been?) part time employees for decades and the league has changed the rules willy-nilly every year.

Find Schultz

 

[Ale Xander]

wow Zeke

 

[Ale Xander]

Cooper to Cooper

 

[Harry Hooper]

What a grab by Cooper.

 

[luckiestman]

wow Zeke

Big time players make big time plays in big games

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Dallas’ high end skill talent wins out in the end.

 

[Ale Xander]

Cooper threw it where Cooper could get it

 

[nattysez]

Cooper Rush reminds me an awful lot of Jason Garrett, all the way down to his career-making performance being on a holiday (Thanksgiving v Halloween).

 

[Ralphwiggum]

This is why any conspiracy theory BS with NFL refs is beyond nonsense. The refs suck and the rule book is ridiculous. The result is the teams that lose can always point to the refs.

No it isn't parody, it's opinion. If you want to defend those 3 PF calls let's hear it instead of a wise guy remark. That's your defense of the officials - "they change the rule s a lot"?

No I’m saying they’ve always stunk.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Kirk Cousins is a solid QB but he’ll never scare me in these situations

 

[patinorange]

Good day for back up QB's.

 

[Ale Xander]

Tonight is a good night to hang with the Coopers

 

[Greg29fan]

One of the most surprising Cowboys wins of recent vintage. Rush was way better than I think anybody expected in their wildest dreams.

You made this joke 3 times and it wasn’t funny any of them.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

The sixth time is going to be amazing.

 

[Ale Xander]

You know it

Hey, maybe he writes for Curb

 

[tims4wins]

Wait tonight’s line is only 10.5? How do I bet my 401k and mortgage?

 

[Mystic Merlin]

With that Chiefs D? I would hold back.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Bet your mortgage? Why would anyone want your mortgage? Lol. I'm with MM, I don't know how I'd bet a 10.5 pt spread in this one.

 

[tims4wins]

You guys think this game is going to be remotely competitive????

 

[Ale Xander]

Can we get Graham to replace Steve Mullet Nepot? He’s in the family already

 

[Ale Xander]

Pick city

 

[Ale Xander]

There’s no staring in quarterbacking

 

[worm0082]

LoLz

 

[strek1]

I guess the Giants can't handle golden opportunities.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

I wouldn’t put serious coin on this spread, no. Even if KC plays very well, a backdoor cover is too likely for my tastes given KC’s defense.

I would be surprised if the Giants genuinely threaten to win this game, if that’s what you are asking.

I would be shocked if the Giants make it to the 4th quarter down by less than 3 scores.

Edit I laid $100 on the spread just for fun. My first venture into live sports betting (aside from Vegas)

 

[Ferm Sheller]

I think that it's about equally as likely that KC wins by 10 or fewer points than it is that they win by 11 or more. That's all I'm saying.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Mahomes looks skittish.

Mahomes looks skittish.

When he holds the ball he struggles.

Okay, good luck! Hope the Giants somehow, some way win this one, but if they don't, I hope that you win.
